Moving the chains used to have a much more sinister meaning.

Remember when this retard and his fucking stupid pals Coke and DDY were calling Petersen racist for pulling in top 15 recruiting classes?
Saying he was bad for the program?
Hysterical.
-
Remember when? Isn't that the only thing they're remembered for?
That and DDY's tree guy series
-
Lots of people here agreed when it was the flavor of the month.
@Houhusky and PGOS have the receipts.
-
I liked there signing day pods though in hindsight I think they were more wrong than right.
DDY also inspired me to mix adult drinks not just rum and coke and other lazy stuff.
-
Am I out of the loop or something? How is recruiting well racist?
-
Because liberal morons
-
-
According to some who used to post here, we were recruiting the wrong category of blacks
-
Giving poor black people scholarships seems pretty liberal to me.
Honestly though, unless involved in some really vile prison time shit, don't care about character if they can ball.
I'll take a championship with thugs over going .500 with boy scouts.
That being said, I vaguely remember those guys, why'd they leave?
-
They left to start their own website, but it was terrible and full of retards
-
Apparently, when you recruiting a certain kid with a name with a traditional spelling, you are targeting the wrong kid.
-
Link?
-
I said WAS. It doesn’t exist anymore
-
-
Pffff. Fuck outta here guy
-
Not surprising, I kind of remember him being full of himself
To be fair though, hh is full of retards too lol, just not terrible
Not trying to be a fag and fluff the people who run it, but this really is one of the very few forums where you can say whatever the fuck you want to unless sperging out, without ads flying in your face, ffs imagine if the scout or 247 or whatever the fuck board was the only option. Pls don't ban me for threadjacking 🙄

You clearly don’t know Coker and DDY very well. Sit this one out, bud

Ok, here you go. We had 2 guys here who had a fairly entertaining podcast but became unhealthily obsessed with recruiting. Insinuated that there was a racial element to Pete's recruiting because why would you ever offer a loser white kid like BBK who had no chance of being successful at the college level and be hesitant to offer a 5* all world phenom like Gee Scott Jr.
Once Pete's recruiting started picking up but we hadn't yet won a National Championship, one of them started pushing this narrative about Pete recruiting the wrong type of black. According to his "Fast Strategy Theory", a black from a low income area that is darker-skinned and the product of a one-parent household is more likely to care only about material things and will thus work harder on the football field as his only way of achieving material gain.
He argued that Pete was mostly recruiting mixed-race kids or kids of African background from 2-parent households and that they would be more likely to care about school and be fo used on their long-term future thus making them inferior college football players.
It sounds insane but that shit was all over the recruiting bored for like 2 years.
-
There was some validity to Petermans type but they took it to the extreme hitting it so hard and for so long that it then morphed into the whole racism thing which was where they lost me.
-
This bullshit was one reason why I left this place for a couple years. I can handle malarkey, but this kind of serious fuckery is one step beyond and takes the fun out of it.
-
I was 99% convinced DDY was going to write an academic white paper on the topic and stake whatever professional reputation he does or doesn’t have on it. Severely disappointed that didn’t come to fruition.
-
White paper? Really?
-
I remember posting shortly after he left about the possibility of his entire shtick being part of a case study on the irrational nature of grown men following high school recruiting. The hyperbolic "character" he played on here was funny for awhile but then got annoying after awhile once they started buying in to their own bullshit. IIRC at one point Coker was going to TBS analyst conventions and they were planning on creating their own TBS ranking website
-
It wasn’t really a race thing. It was about growing up with a comfortable life vs not. Kaleb McGary, they said, was likely fast strategy for instance.
Anyway, there was something to what they were saying but it became very charged because Oregon was using it and also…we couldn’t fucking beat Oregon with our tight-ass coach, which certainly sucked.
-
Sounds like whitewashing history
-
U rite, I don't care. I just know that everyone is a moron always. You, me, Coker, DDY, everyone. We're all morons.
-
There was definitely a racial element to it. We had people shitting on poly/white recruits and making comments about black guys who were too "light skinned." The fast strategy shit was only part of it.
-
Youre wrong and fuck off.
The receipts are there.
-
I came back from being banned for a year and those fags and their minions had damn near taken over the board with their hysterical bullshit. As someone who's always hated recruiting anyways, I had no issue trolling the shit out of them.
And for the record, it was nothing personal. I'm just a fast strategy asshole who was born in the Commencement Bay MUD. #TacTownTuff
