Do HBCU know how to recruit and market high profile athletes?



Since you saw it, did you report the violation? It's 2015, not 1985 lol. It's time to kill the myth of bigfoot and new cars going to stud athletes lol. Did you see how I placed the onus of accountability on you to report to the ncaa, who will then OWN the accountability to perform an investigation into your allegations? Too simple.

I'll wait for your response. :)

I don't work for the NCAA, so it's not my business to report it. Just like it's not your business to recruit for your university as an alumnus since they don't pay you, correct?

In an official capacity as a paid recruiter, no sir. Not at all. Would you not agree? You're a walking lawsuit waiting to happen, if you think otherwise. But, we can CERTAINLY pass on information regarding talented athletic youth to our universities. That's the MOST we should do, imho. Not attempt to serve in a salaried positional role who has understanding and compliance w/ the ncaa regarding recruiting, would you not agree?

Ditto for you reporting illegal activity to the ncaa. You pass the information on but you don't work for them so therefore, you don't act in their capacity.

lol

I choose not to pass info along nor act in their capacity. Burglars breaking in my neighbor's house? Reported. Drug dealers selling in my neighborhood? Reported. An amateur athlete escaping poverty who never had anything, who suddenly gets a duffle bag of cash or a new Expedition to continue his education at a university; all while getting an opportunity to play professionally? Absolutely not. You can judge me for that, but that's just not how I roll. LOL.

No need in ruining that kid's life. That also impacts others who are affiliated with said university, like Reggie Bush at USC (but I guess that's all urban myth according to you lol). It doesn't impact me, nor is no one's life or safety endangered by these acts.

Yep- I wholeheartedly disagree. There are always opportunities to represent your school at local events in your area. One should take pride in it. The chances of that leading to any sort of litigation is much less minimal than passing incriminating info along to the NCAA to do their own investigation. LOL
 
I was at a Benihanas once and overheard these young guys from LSU talk about how they conduct the car buying process for athletes

Reggie Bush was busted. There is nothing mythical about being caught lol. Wrong example :) .

So, you wouldn't snitch on entities creating an unequal participating field, eh? smh Actually, that bold above is some of the main roots of the issues that plague HBCUs. Cheaters and lazy people not doing their job aren't being held accountable while people like you witness it and keep your mouths shut. I take it you've cheated a time or two in your academic studies, eh? Or perhaps witnessed an ignorant cheating and kept your mouth shut, again. lol Jesus.... is not in your dwelling, obviously. Good day sir.

We're not talking about representing schools as everyone does that to a certain degree. We're talking about RECRUITING student-athletes, remember?

(((((((((((((((((((((((((FOCUS))))))))))))))))))))))))))

lol

Whether he was busted or not is besides the point. The act is what we are debating. You stated that these violations are "urban myths". The second paragraph is not worth addressing since you want to get personal. You enjoy your day, as well.

Oh no sir! He was caught and busted. That's not a myth. That is called a fact. Like the fact that he was ordered to return the Heisman trophy. That's fact. Not myth.

I wasn't attempting to get personal. I was desiring to determine where your ethical line is located. On the side of right(eousness) 1000% of the time or part-time. lol No harm. No foul.
 
I agree 1000%, STC.

But, you have people, w/ the pre-integration lol mindset like SoloMan and Mr SWAC who think *quote* " your HBCU alma mater should not have to pay you to advertise, promote, recruit for them" *unqote*. So, in that regard, it is YOU who should create a hype video/university collateral and then send kids a hype video, OFFICIAL state university collateral, and actually force your physical presence upon them, w/out knowledge of ncaa recruiting rules/violations/contact periods/et al :D :D :D :D: :D :D :D :D :D. I can almost envision people like them physically chasing kids down while they're in school seeking to speak to them during a non-recruiting period and god forbid, but HS staff noting and documenting the illegal act and reporting them to the ncaa. I do not speak from a remedial and ridiculous urban legend standpoint, I'm speaking fact. Try that and watch what happens. I'll be lmmfao@u, like this--> :D .
While you're over there grinning and spell checking... perhaps you were grinning too hard when I said, "I'm not saying go break NCAA violations, but your university depends on you to help in recruiting". There is nothing wrong with educating a kid on the benefits of attending an HBCU. There's no NCAA recruiting violation in that. That's giving neighborly advice. Remember, you don't work for the university. What harm is there in talking to a kid after a high school football game, and saying, "you need to take your talents to THE HILL"? Or wearing your HBCU shirt around proudly at the office and out to high school sporting events. You know what that is called? MARKETING!:confused:. Is the NCAA gonna punish my alma mater because I did any of that? He'll no. If enough alumni/fans do that for HBCUs, the kids will notice. Right now, we are out of sight, out of mind.

And you wonder why HBCU coaches won't go after blue chippers. Hell, you're too scared to even look one in the eye.o_O

More urban legend. smh "Did you see it?" Since you saw it, did you REPORT it to the ncaa?

smh
Dude, I've seen it. I'm from Mobile. When Jamarcus Russell was at Williamson High School, and committed to LSU the next thing you know he was driving an Escalade with 20" rims. Everybody knew where it came from. The NCAA sees it all the time, and does nothing about it. It's rampant in big time college football. The P5 went Mafia style and told the NCAA let us pay players or else. NCAA folded like a wallet. I ain't telling the NCAA shit with they're shady ass.

Guy, we're not discussing anyone simply wearing their school paraphernalia, talking up their school, or responding to questions when asked. We're discussing YOU and people LIKE YOU attempting to take the place of a SALARIED university student(-athlete) recruiter, remember? smh Those who are NOT in compliance w/ the ncaa w/ respect to recruiting practices and then "act" on behalf of their alma mater :D . ncaa violation in wait just around the corner. :D

So if you SAW it, did you report it? Geez louise I saw a murder but didn't report it lmao! If they are creating an unequal recruiting playing field, why are you and those like you continuing to allow them to get away w/ it? If I saw it, I'm reporting it immediately! I'm a man who is not afraid of anything or anyone just as long as I can continue to stockpile brass lol :D.
 



Did he just compare a murder to a recruiting violation? Or is it me?

LOL

I suggest you include my entire post if your're going to quote that. So just as I suspected, you're just attention whoring. Slow day at work for you, I guess.

So you did compare a murder to a recruting violation. Got it.

Did you not read the english statement I created up there which stated "I was being OVERLY sarcastic and non-comparative?" Comprehension be damned, eh?

You won't win this battle or war. You may want to stay on that type ground over there :D .
 
we do recruit them but not many will list their offers.....I've heard stories of how we shook so and so's hand, etc. but we cant tell the media who we recruit...some of these kids out there are recruited by so many people they dont know who and what is people will think no contact was made

no one would know the Kenny Guiton story unless he said it publicly

I knew it. It was Tressel last scholly that got him to C-bus. Otherwise he was headed to PV. It was even in the Columbus news on how Tressel gave the Guiton kid a big time shot by offering. They fell in love with him be a student athlete. Great young man. He is set because the OSU folks are crazy about him.

How ironic that you take offense and accuse someone of misinterpreting you.
 
Here is another thing:

We want to sell kids on the NFL too right? Do you guys know how many NFL Teams are within driving distance of the WASHINGTON, DC Area? You have the Redskins right down the street, you have The Ravens no more than 30 miles from DC, the Eagles are 117 miles from DC, The NY Jets and Giants are 200 Miles from DC. Currently, there really isn't an HBCU Football PawPrint in the Northeast that is a Pipeline.

Now, in the South, what SWAC States have NFL Teams in the them. The ONLY SWAC States with NFL Teams are Louisiana and Texas. The only two.

Georgia - MEAC Territory - Atlanta Falcons
Florida - MEAC Territory - Tampa Bay, Jacksonville, Miami
Tennessee - TN State Territory - Tennessee Titans

You can SELL to recruits that you as a SWAC Team play in these big cities for NFL Scouts. However, in order for this to work, SWAC TEAMS MUST PLAY MORE MEAC TEAMS to get the NFL Exposure.

Folks lying talking about only if the dollars make sense will we go play Howard. Bullshit. Weren't SWAC Budgets in the 90s Smaller? That NFL Exposure really helped SWAC Players get stated. Howard U is major NFL Exposure terroritory. SWAC Teams played those MEAC Teams in those big cities/areas and got the NFL Exposure.


my gosh at your level of riding the MEAC schools. The post is absurd btw
 
How ironic that you take offense and accuse someone of misinterpreting you.

No sir! I'm in the defensive posture but not offensive posture. I was trying to psy....shut up Bewild :), attempting to understand the underlying irrational logic behind some thinking they can approach kids, like a paid recruiter who is alleged to be ncaa compliant, and unofficially officially lol recruit student-athletes. You will get busted. You will get banned by your university, if they are for what's right. Do you need examples of this? smh

You're welcome. In advance. :)
