I edited two previous posts.
Boiled steel, I believe you can now see and believe I didn't make up the rumor about Bowen. You don't have to believe me. I didn't start the rumor, but it does exist and it was posted on this board. And many others have read it and know about it. And like the losses to cincy, Little Rock, Kansas and Texas tech should we be barred from ever discussing it here because it's painful? Should we never talk about the other more painful side of recruiting? the problem is that recruiting is ugly and full of lies. Should we never discuss that side of recruiting?
When you talk about recruiting it's easy and pleasant to talk about players who are friends wanting to play for the same team and when that happens it's a nice feel good story. But nobody ever wants to discuss where the opposite may be true.
I'm not fabricating anything. I'm just repeating what was already posted on this board. All I've said is as part of Bowen's recruiting , many rumors were posted on THIS board. That's a fact. I never said the rumors were factual. but rather, it's a fact that rumors do exist. And unfortunately, once a rumor is posted on a public forum such as this, there will always be somebody who references the rumor. and that's part of my point. I don't know where the rumor started, or who started it. but that rumor surfaced on our board. Should we not discuss it because it was just a rumor? Should we not discuss the ugly side and negative side of recruiting?
