How do you know the coaches messed up?

dumb = assuming one is smarter than those with more information

dumb also = thinking that having more information available

I guess I'll say that while the coaches are regaining my trust slowly, that I'm

Am baffled at how many times

Stop using logic

I have seen those posts, and I guess that I lean toward giving the benefit of

The Kruger's father had a run in with one of BYU's assistant coaches

Te'o would've sat out a year for drinking? That's news to me. He wasn't arrested

dYrtbYkerYder

4/17/14 11:08pm

You mean you don't know everything?? Your other posts suggest otherwise

HoustonCougar

4/17/14 11:09pm

I hear you but we're not talking KVN style indiscretion

oxcoug

4/17/14 11:07pm

Fair enough. It is tricky to say where to draw the line.

dYrtbYkerYder

4/17/14 11:15pm

And KVN lost his scholarship - had to earn it back.

There is a kid in my neighborhood who is telling everyone he's about to...

Maybe one of the reasons he doesn't have other offers

yeah, probably this. College coaches NEVER offer kids that seem

Michael Skarn

I'm sure the coaches lose sleep ...

this is such a tired and lame argument

Michael Skarn

BengalCougar

4/18/14 11:29am

I trust the coaches on this...totally

PortlandBlue

4/17/14 10:39pm

And I guess that's my point... that I'm not ready to say that just yet.

dYrtbYkerYder

4/17/14 10:47pm

If too many people take your attitude it tempts coaches

gwalker

4/17/14 10:56pm

In response to your final question... maybe. I'm not convinced they didn't.

dYrtbYkerYder

4/17/14 10:59pm

Bottom line here is that there is a lot more to this story than you know.

BengalCougar

4/18/14 1:27am

If there's any place Bronco has earned trust and respect it's...LB Talent.

4/17/14 10:42pm

While this is true, it's also not what this is actually about

oxcoug

4/17/14 10:50pm

There is a way around the "fact" that the coaching staff messed up this one.

SoCalCoug

4/17/14 10:57pm

Sometimes, it just comes down to politics and who you know.

ldssdl

4/17/14 10:58pm

So what your saying is if a recruit has X number of offers they should

I'd say if a kid is planning on serving a mission, he is a program fit.

This is not about a scholarship crunch, there is a lot more to this story than..

Let's take a look at the whole picture for once

It isn't like Gustin was under the radar and they didn't know about him

shottyj77

4/18/14 6:24am

Really uncle Gustin.

coolblue

4/18/14 7:59am

Methinks you don't know enough about the situation to make this judgment.

Real Men Wear Blue

4/18/14 8:49am

You're clearly just a mindless Bronco hater and can't possibly

Michael Skarn

4/18/14 10:35am

Some of us just think that it's probably pretty reasonable...

Eddie

4/18/14 10:43am

I'm not sure I disagree substantially with anything you said here

Michael Skarn

4/18/14 1:06pm

The beef that most have

shottyj77

4/18/14 1:26pm

This is what I think too.

Eddie

4/18/14 1:34pm

If the two of you above don't understand the opposing view

Michael Skarn

4/18/14 1:47pm

A legitimate question that will never be answered...

Eddie

4/18/14 1:54pm

I'm sure you'll disagree with the characterization, but it really

Michael Skarn

4/18/14 1:59pm

I understand what you're saying.

Eddie

At the point when people appear to be going down the road of willful

Michael Skarn

4/18/14 2:33pm

Are you sure you've read what I've been writing?

Eddie

4/18/14 2:54pm

Two quick points, then I'm done

Michael Skarn

4/18/14 3:10pm

I think that you have been drawing from other things you've read...

Eddie

4/18/14 3:26pm

Nothing to do with Bronco hating.
