the fact that message boards should be ignored and that we have no credibility. I just don't think what is posted on CB carries much weight for anybody with a reasonable mind.

I wish CB truly were independent but I'm afraid the mods are every bit as strict

That doesn't make it not independent (if true).

I personally think it's silly that athletes care what the fans think of them

Well, I think it's silly that athletes care who offers them first.

Offering first does show which coaches deemed them worthy

Nice fans on message boards give recruits an idea

So, is it your position then, that athletes never read message boards,

Why is this post doggin on a post that's doggin on negativity?

SUAVO

I'd agree with that if the board got proportionally pumped

please point to a game over the last 5 years worthy of such elation?

Notice how BYU hasn't been ranked lately?

I'm still pumped about both Texas victories. Just look at this recruiting

I don't think that's a fair criticism. This board gets very excited at times.
