MistriBuck
aka MartyrBuck
if this is the wrong forum for this, i apologize
my god, i've been a long-time bucknuts poster, and haven't quite made the transition over here, but am moving slowly towards it........a lot of you probably don't recognize me, but some of you know me as a long-time poster over there............anyway, i think i finally blew a gasket and will find myself participating in discussions over here quite a bit more often, while only lurking over there.........no doubt it is a circus and the information that gets tossed around, and the debates that take place are a joke
anyway, my reason for this post is not to just bitch about BN, but to get your opinions on this topic that came up in a Lenix thread about Glenville recruits taking all of their visits, and the supposed theory as to why they do this, and what Ginn Sr.'s motives are in having his kids take these visits........there has been a "theory" tossed around about kids visiting other places to garner exposure for the lesser known recruits
well, while i understand this theory, and feel there may be an ever so slight degree of validity to it, i personally think based on the conclusions i've drawn in researching each high profile OSU recruits' visits, and comments, as well the offers to the lesser known recruits and their visits, as well as Ginn Sr.'s comments that it makes MUCH more sense that he simply encourages his kids to take all of their visits and weigh all of their options, as opposed to this being some mastermind plan to get exposure for other recruits...........to me this just seems like an example of bucknuts posters twisting information around to fit their twisted little fantasy world, but maybe i'm wrong, i wonder what everyone else's take is???
anyway, this dude, EdgewoodBuck (do not know if this is EdgeBuck over here???) on BN posts in this thread about Ginn Sr.'s "plan" and talks about it like it is gospel, rather than a theory, and patronizes me for not "understanding this simple concept"..........he is arrogant enough to ensenuate that all the OSU Glenville recruits have been OSU bound since day one and ONLY take their visits for this sole purpose.......he even went as far as to ensenuate that Ginn Sr. has told Lenix what to say about who his leader is!!!........my response started off simple, to paraphrase: "i've heard this theory but when did it became a universal truth?", and when he started patronizing me i lost it and started researching this to prove my point........i piled up a mountain of evidence to present my case, and not surprisingly it was answered with very simple minded responses like "everyone knows this is true" and "it's common sense", with no substance
anyway, i was curious what the more logical, level-headed, reality based posters on BP think about this subject and this "theory"......FWIW NOBODY on BN offered any objective opinion on the subject, god what a waste of time!!......if you care to look at the actual post and the evidence i presented here is the premium thread from yesterday...........below that is a recruiting board thread where not only does he continues with the same stance and attitude towards this, but some other tool chimes in with his distorted view.........wtf is going on over there?.......i also gave my $.02 and some more "evidence" on this thread
the first thread is a lot to wade through if you don't care to, but i still look forward to your opinions, or even FACTS about this subject
