I'm guessing that someone at some point took Spencer aside and gently suggested that maybe he should never ever discuss a not-yet-signed recruit again.Originally posted by Green Monstah View Post
If this is the big time recruit Doofus and Linton were mentioning, they deserve to be sucker punched.τὸν ἥλιον ἀνατέλλοντα πλείονες ἢ δυόμενον προσκυνοῦσιν

Raider Demuni gets home from his mission, and is greeted at the airport by the new DC and a big banner with a picture of Raider wearing BYU blue.
CBers and even Tom Holmoe are applauding.
I absolutely hate that. Arriving at your home airport at the end of your mission is one of life's most sacred moments. It should be reserved to family.
I get that there are sharks in the water hoping to get him to transfer out. (One picture even has Spencer Fano, recent Utah commit, in the background.) And I know Utah coaches have greeted players, especially transfer-sensitive ones, at the airport. Maybe this is just the way the world works now. But I don't have to like it.τὸν ἥλιον ἀνατέλλοντα πλείονες ἢ δυόμενον προσκυνοῦσιν

Thank you. This place can be so toxic. Sometimes like a cult. If he transferred from BYU, it must mean he's crappy and desperate. He was the 109th ranked recruit in the nation in 2019. Maybe he was looking for an upgrade. (He shouldn't have gone on a mission.)Originally posted by Green Monstah View PostHe was a four-star QB in HS. I don't think anyone on this site can say they have enough data to say whether he's scholarship worthy or not.When a true genius appears, you can know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in a confederacy against him.

Maybe sacred isn't the best word. A deeply personal moment best shared with your family.Originally posted by Green Monstah View PostHonestly, I have never thought of returning from a mission as sacred. I was just excited to get back to normal life. Friends and family had posters and clapped and cheered. It was great."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."

You all know what I mean. It's up there with Christmas morning. It's certainly no place for a recruiting battle.Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View Post

I, for one, was grateful that the recruiters didn't interrupt my time with my family at the airport, or any other time, really."I think it was King Benjamin who said 'you sorry ass shitbags who have no skills that the market values also have an obligation to have the attitude that if one day you do in fact win the PowerBall Lottery that you will then impart of your substance to those without.'"

I don’t. Honestly. Must be a Utah culture thing.

Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!
For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."
