Forget Rojo, what's Flight Tracker have to say about this?
quote:Roger that. It's just a lot more entertaining when the Aggies play well if not win.
The reason people get all cranked up about this, is because they put too much emphasis on a game that will not matter when something happens that does. No matter who Sumlin does or does not hire. It wont change the facts that there are people that matter to you and that you matter to some people. Other than that it's just so much ***** envy and watercooler bravado. And it will not change your life any at all whether he hires Spurrier or whether Rojo is just trolling. It's about perspective and priorities. I really dont care much anymore. It's entertainment, nothing more and nothing less.

And when it's not Spurrier he's going to come on here and make up some other excuse. And then he'll re-emerge somewhere else and make another bold prediction that people will flock to. (wash, rinse, repeat)

quote:He didn't say that. You are putting your own spin on what he said.quote:lol except Rojo stated from his own account that he was strictly sunshine pumping about recruiting. People are using the chavis prediction and Kyler/Mack's commitment as badges that prove his worth. I can't speak to the Chavis deal with anymore certainty than you can, but from his own mouth, half of his "fame" is fabricated nonsense. And people are quick to forget that.
I honestly don't think anyone (well very few) are about "defending Rojo" but actually about trying to find and defend the truth in all this. I think most people are fascinated by Rojo because the actual evidence points to him having real inside info.
Don't believe me? Upgrade your subscription level and gander at this thread. Rojo admits to making up horse**** to prop up recruiting.

quote:how elitist of you, maybe you should go join premium where they also don't share info when they have it.
All I know is that if I had friends connected enough to the program to know that kind of inside information, I would not come to this board and post it.
And for that reason alone, I do not care for Rojo.
quote:Then by all means, fix my spin. Update with correct quotes that show how Rojo didn't massively oversell a recruiting haul the likes of which we have never seen.
And the quote you posted directly doesn't say that.
Call it spin. Call it selective reading. Call it your own bias. Call it what you want.
I didn't notice on that thread if you were one of the ones arguing with him. I only read his posts. And they don't say what you are implying here.

If he's right, Texas Aggie football is in deep dookie... A 70 yr old ball coach that quit on his team, is not who A&M needs as an OC.
You know, if we actually hired Nick Saban some people would find a reason to ***** about it on this board.

South Carolina: Steve Spurrier has donated his final $70,000 payment from the school to the Gamecock Club, according to The State.

Spurrier, who is in New York for the National Football Foundation's annual awards dinner at the Waldorf Astoria, returned his final payment from the school, a check for more than $70,000, to the Gamecock Club in the form of a donation, a source told The State.
"I'll find something to do here pretty soon that'll take up some more time," Spurrier said. "I am completely at peace that I made the right decision."

For the believers among us, this might eliminate the need to wait until the end of the month ...
Edit to add the underlying article from The State Newspaper.

I know someone else who's in New York right now too ... What say you, Rojo?
