A simply awesome recruiting story from the Blade

Reports just in that the horse being beaten in this thread IS ACTUALLY ALREADY DEAD! Can we please drop all this or have the thread locked or something?

[Globetrotter]

When I was a Junior in college my house got robbed. Like most college juniors I had $9,000 in cash under my bed. They took it all.

Embellish much? It was $3,000, not to mention his family is from Centerville, in other words his parents are pretty well off.

Centerville? Maybe upper arlington, bexley or grandview, but centerville?

My parents are well off, they never said hey Globetrotter (thats what I make them call me so I can always stay in character) here is $3,000 in cash what we want you to do with it is put it under your bed. Not a bank or use it, just put it right there under your bed. I know that you are in your apartment 11 minutes from your hometown where your likely bank is, but what we need you to do is put that $3,000 under your bed.

My question is this, for those of you out there who have lived longer then me. Outside of working retail and counting money, have you ever even seen $3,000 CASH?. I have once when I was closing an account and putting it into another bank. I have been around the world twice and had to get a bunch of cash before hand every time. For trips that would last me over100 days and where I was never really sure where I would get to an ATM or could use my visa I still didnt have $3,000 including cash for each country I was going to.

How do you know how much money GT had under his bed? Only one way I can think of....

Who's GT? You want to know how I know this? It's called reading the paper, pretty hardcore research I know.

I've seen it reported that his parents are well off and live in a pretty nice area of Centerville, which is a nice area with a lot money, obviously not very familiar with the Dayton area I see. Not everybody does the same things you do and not everybody's parents are like yours so it's pretty unfair to judge on an assumption. If you can prove something then feel free to ridicule. Personally, I prefer to treat others like I'd want to be treated which means I wouldn't want anybody that doesn't know me or my family judging me or what I do. I find it unbelievable that you're still bringing this up three years later when nothing ever came of the situation just because the kid went to Ohio State. Makes our fanbase look very amatuer.

I get the feeling you are not a part of our fan base.

BTW I was thinking you were saying he was from Clintonville.

3 Grand in cash seems odd to have for anyone.

Stevens has also made friends with several Falcon supporters. He visited a BG message board a few days before the Toledo game and asked if he could stop by their tailgating site before the game.

"We had a good time talking about the other guys coming in and the program," Stevens said.


HOLY CRAP! Is Ryan Artullo trying to ruin BG? Please take my suggestion and don't make contact with Stevens again until he is at campus at BG!!!

OH MY GOD!!11 SOMEBODY CALL THE NCAA QUICK!!!!111

It is a NCAA violation to talk to a recruit, even on a message board, even by fans. These things are monitored by the NCAA.

It is also an NCAA violation to pay Troy Smith and Maurice Clarrett to play for your team.

Nice try but those were investigated and proven false. OSU didnt give Mo anythng..The booster did and he was banned for life and Mo was suspended for the rest of his career.

Try again.

When I was a Junior in college my house got robbed. Like most college juniors I had $9,000 in cash under my bed. They took it all.

Keep trying...it was 3,000 and it was given to him by his parents.

you look foolish. You pull outrageous fictional statements out of your ass and try to mingle them in with some half truths and it fails for you.

Keep reaching for something.

$3,000 is a lot of money and the NCAA never even had to investigate. You got nothing, once again.

For anyone? I know a lot of people who keep all of their cash instead of putting it in the bank. Especially a lot of older folk.

You're a moron.

[tekekini]

Do you really think that if the money was illegal, they would have reported it to the police?? You don't think that if the money was illegal, they would have just gotten more from the place it came from and kept it hush hush? Especially since Mo Clarrett's career ended because he was an idiot and took items (from someone not even associated with the school I remind you).

Use your brain.

The NCAA didn't see anything wrong so why are you so hard up about non sense?

You buy in to this sterotype that all of these colleges pay their players but then you have no facts or proof that it has been done. If the steroetype was true, it wouldn't be hard for the NCAA to find and every shool would be on suspension.

Learn to think for yourself. You're gullable (sp?).

[Globetrotter]

You cant spell gullible! Thats ironic. When a team as powerful as OSU says jump the NCAA says how high or don't cheat too obviously. The NCAA caters to the big wigs. How else can they pay off Rick Neuhisal?

Unfortunate, this thread.
