I asked google AI how to appear to be an insider.

Appearing as an insider on a message board without actual connections typically involves cultivating a specific online persona and presentation style, rather than having genuine sources.
Here are some common tactics:
Presentation & Style
Vague Language: Use ambiguous phrases like "I'm hearing things are trending," "watch for X in the coming weeks," or "sources suggest a visit might be off." This can give you an out if the information is incorrect.
Selective Sharing: Share information that is likely to happen or is already circulating in snippets on paid sites or social media, and reword it.
Casual Tone: Adopt a casual, almost reluctant, tone as if you are too busy with other work to post often.
Claiming Limited Information: State that you can't reveal everything to "protect sources" or because the information is "sensitive." This can explain any lack of detail.
Anonymity: Use a creative or anonymous username and avoid sharing any personal information that could reveal your true identity or location.
"I told you so" Mentality: If one of your vague comments appears to come true, be among the first to acknowledge it.
Content Strategy
Aggregating Public Information: Follow reputable recruiting sources and social media accounts. Distill their information and post it later.
Focus on Trends, Not Facts: Instead of stating a fact (e.g., "Player X is committing Thursday"), comment on a trend (e.g., "Things are looking good for us, momentum is building").
Mentioning Vague "Sources": Refer to generic sources like "someone in the fieldhouse" or "a close contact" without giving any specific details.
By employing these methods, you can create the illusion of being an insider on a message board.

Pretty spot on

AI just regurgitates what’s already happened.
Of course AI says that “insiders” appear to be this way. Precisely because people post this way and they call themselves insiders.

You must also make 90% of your thread title simply the day's date.

Sounds oddly familiar on the CCB!

This is what Grok says:
To look like a legit insider on TigerDroppings (especially Recruiting Board, OT, or Poli Board), you don’t actually have to know anybody — you just have to master the art of the grift. Here’s the playbook that literally every “source” guy who ever got 5+ pages of “who’s and thank-you reps uses:Steal from the pay sites/Twitter insiders, but post it 5–30 minutes before it goes nuclear
Follow Shea Dixon, Billy Embody, Sam Spiegelman, Matt Zenitz, etc. on a burner Twitter with notifications on. As soon as they tweet or drop an article, you drop the info on TD in your own words.
Example: They tweet “LSU making a big push for ___” ? you post “Hearing LSU is coming in HOT on [5-star name] right now. Staff very confident.”
You beat 95% of the board to it ? instant “dude how do you know this shite” replies.
Use the sacred insider phrases (copy-paste these, they work every time) “Don’t shoot the messenger but…”
“From a really good source…”
“Can’t say who, but someone extremely close to the kid told me…”
“Take it with a grain of salt but I’m being told…”
“Hearing it’s trending hard our way. Expect something soon™”
“Staff is quietly very confident”
“There’s a reason he’s been quiet lately…”
The “PM for details” nuclear option
Drop a half-scoop: “Just heard something absolutely massive on [top target]. Can’t post it here but holy shite.”
Then tell everyone to PM you. Half the board will. You just reply “can’t say or my guy gets burned” or make up some vague bullshite. Instant legend status.
The Chicken mimicry template (this one is undefeated)
Real Chicken post style:
“[Player name]
LSU
98%” You do the exact same thing on a random Tuesday for a semi-plausible kid. If it hits ? you’re the next Chicken. If it misses ? “things changed last minute, kid got paid.”
Bonus advanced moves that make vets seethe with jealousy Post a blurry picture of a recruit’s private jet tail number on FlightAware screenshot and say “guess who just landed in Baton Rouge ”
Claim “my guy who works in the ops building” saw a recruit’s family getting the red-carpet tour
Drop “CBK knows” or “Woody knows” even if you have zero clue what that means — half the board will think you’re connected
When you’re wrong: “Kid’s camp is playing games” or “bag situation changed” — never your fault
Do this for two recruiting cycles and get 3–4 big calls right (by straight stealing from real insiders) and you’ll have people quoting you like scripture and calling you “bro” in real life at Tiger Stadium.Pro tip: Use an account that’s at least 5–7 years old with normal posting history. Brand new accounts get roasted instantly.Welcome to the dark side. Now go forth and collect your thank-you reps.
