| Regarding some of the "booms" and the fluidity of recruiting (Posted on 2/6/13 at 11:34 am)
First of all, I want to say this. Thanks to everyone who contributes to this board. It makes it a great place to share information and our love for LSU football. Keep it coming! Secondly, LSU finished with what I consider to be a top 5 class, regardless of the rankings. We should be very happy with things. Now, regarding some of the flack that posters are giving others on here... Memphis, Wish I Were Tebow, and Redfield Recruiting is the most fluid issue in collegiate football. What is true yesterday, or even this morning, is not true now or even 24 hours from now. The information that these above posters provided was, without a doubt, legitimate. I specifically know that Red and Memphis had accurate information for all their posts. It's easy enough to come on here this morning and state they were wrong and are liars. Hindsight is always 20/20. But remember, they had this info, elected to pass it on to you, and they each had good intentions. Please do not create a cluster on this board mocking them. I would prefer that anyone with inside info share with us without the fear that they will be black balled if it does not come to fruition. Anyways, I just wanted to share that as all three of the abovementioned posters are good guys (red and memphis who I speak to regularly). Please don't be that guy and prevent someone from sharing info (plenty of people already did this to Belowpar). I encourage each of you to contribute and share info. BUT, please take anything on this board with a grain of salt. You should take all info, from all sources, and then evaluate what you think would happen. Besides, we are all here because we love the drama and LSU. have a great day!

Fair enough. And all true. At the same time, maybe some could lighten up on the "posters coming over from the Rant" schtick? The faux superiority wears a little bit. But all of us enjoy receiving information but could do w/o the bragging.

perhaps they would not get so much flack if they would stop acting like they have all these inside sources, and just admit that they just follow twitter and paysites for their recruiting "sources"

I lurk on the RB and like the positive attitudes and information sharing. None of which can ever be 100% accurate. Keep it coming guys. Oh, and RA'd for a sticky.

True. Great pickup, love it. Looking at the depth chart of signees, we could've used one more DB maybe .... but Diarse can play DB right?

I was at the amount of "booms" you three were insisting on the entire weekend. I'm interested memphis, tebow, and redfield. What were the 5-6 "booms" y'all thought would happen now that the dust has settled.

Their problem was coming here with the "I've got a boom and won't tell" attitude. Most guys that hang around here long enough see that stuff year in and year out. If you have something you want to share, then share it. Otherwise, go about your business. There's plenty of guys on this board who are members to other sites. Some pay and some non pay. Plenty of them saw the same scoop and didn't come over here with their secret boom shite. Did they deserve everything thrown their way today? Nah, but they deserved a good bit of it.
