Don't fret about loosing a TE recruit

There's not a single fan worrying about this loss.
I think the only thing that is bothersome is that players are finding other schools that many seem as lateral moves or downward moves as more attractive than playing for Rutgers at the moment, especially a lowly recruited NJ kid.

It's not "bothersome" at all. Some kids wanted to play for Elmer Fudd, some kids have a "dream school," the rest never would have survived under Ash. Flight or FIGHT!

As Cali noted in another thread, would not be surprised if this was an olive branch offer to a Power Parochial program. Ash just got insight into the integrity of such programs relative to Rutgers. Good education on a low stakes commit. Ash now understands the landscape. The Parochials were the same ones crying about Rutgers hiring Partridge, but completely fine with Michigan hiring him. I guess that is what Parochial really means - Hypocites.
 
The 2016 roster has 6 TE scholarship players and none are seniors.That is more than typical. 2017 is a better class to find a stud TE.I am looking forward to Nakia getting some pt at TE.

It's not the player himself and it's not even the school he "flipped" to. It's the principle of the matter.
 
We have some real hypocrites on this board. LOL.

This has nothing to do with Flood first of all. I was not overly excited when we got him nor am I worried he flipped. But I am not a freaking hypocrite.
 
Sorry, but you are in a high propaganda mode right now. Pumping up one regime while bashing others in the process and looking for scapegoats. Keep it positive.

Are you out of your freakin' mind? Where am I "bashing" anyone in this thread (and please don't tell me it's because I called the former "regime" "Elmer Fudd"...my lord) and OF COURSE I'm going to be "pumping up" the new regime! I'M A FAN!!!! Wow! Also have no idea how I am looking for "scapegoats" based on my comments above.

ABSOLUTE "FAIL" ON YOUR END BILL and I'm not even going to get into the fact that you should be banned, for life, comparing me to one of the biggest scumbags/evil monsters in the history of the world. A man who propagandized an entire nation into believing that it was okay to "eliminate" a targeted group of people off the face of the Earth. Screw you dude.

Oh the false rage. Do you really think i compared you literally? Just the propaganda style of building up one regime while bashing another.

Yes, you're a fan. You're a fan until you are not a fan..then you bash and bash and call people names. Would you want your father called Elmer Fudd by some punk on a messageboard. There is no need at this juncture to do that. Just keep it positive.

No one needs to educate me on the Nazis. I have had actual relatives killed in concentration camps , my German jewish grandmother's siblings.

Sorry if you were truly offended. Just didn't like your style of fandom.

1st off if you consider calling a former coach by a moniker used by many here, "bashing," then you might need to look up the meaning of the word. I was just having fun and the content of the comment was far from "bashing" itself. Quite the opposite, actually, but you chose to ignore that fact.

2nd it simply amazes me how sensitive some here still are to people who are critical - RIGHTFULLY SO - of Flood and his regime. Posters bash coaches of other sports, both new and old, left and right - even of this sport - but God forbid we bash a guy who was a lousy HC, lousy recruiter, a liar, a sneak, and so-on-and-so-on. Freakin' hysterical IMHO!

3rd if you truly had relatives die in those camps then you're comment, comparing myself to him, is even MORE disgusting and misplaced. It's not a matter of "misplaced rage" it's a matter of common courtesy to your fellow man, and your ancestors, for crying out loud! BTW - there are quite a few other posters here not happy with that comment, if you hadn't notice, but apparently you've just got a hard-on for me today.

Finally please don't ever - EVER - question my fandom. Thank you. I never once stopped pulling for the TEAM on the field, not once, and never will. If I - or anyone else for that matter - however, choose to no longer be a fan of a coach, manager, whomever, that is a completely different story in my book. You root for the school, the team, the program, and - if you want - the guy who leads them onto the field. Sorry.

There were many issues about the flip, none of which had to do with losing a talented TE.

Choosing to no longer be fan of a coach is your option. However you bring it to levels via a message board that does not help the community in which you are a fan...and ultimately lead to you getting banned.

Regarding Flood, would you call him Elmer Fudd to his face? Doubtful. Treat people on a messageboard how you would treat them in person. He ultimately failed , no need to kick him when he is down or scapegoat him for current recruiting events.

Overall, you seem like a good guy. You just get too obsessive both in propping up and demonizing. Things are always somewhere in between.
 
Bill, you can spin what you posted all you want. We all have our disagreements with each other all the time. Nuts and I had a little disagreement the other day. Disagree all you want but to compare him, or anyone, to Goebels is totally out of line. I was disgusted the moment I read it and posted accordingly.

All my reasons for not liking Flood, starting in Oct of 2013, were 100% legit. Not my problem that people had to constantly challenge me and my fact-based comments - despite me never starting a single thread about him - that ALL proved out to be 100% correct. Once again, as I said earlier, if every other RU coach can get criticized, so can Flood. Deal with it or leave me alone as I'm the biggest Rutgers Athletics fan there is, period, and none of this changes the FACT that you compared me to Josef Goebbels.

Let it go Nuts. Hype up Ash all you want. I am all for it. No need to keep trashing what's his name.

Not spinning at all. My comparison was simply about style. The propping up one regime while bashing/demonizing others. Obviously not a literal comparison and for anyone to take it that way is just silly.

All irrelevent points as to why or when you stopped liking Flood or if you started a thread. It was about your obsessive style which annoyed the rest of your community and got you banned. Again, criticizing is fine...the Elmer Fudd thing is just more of the same childish behavior .
