What are you afraid of?

[cyclonenum1]

I post a simple thread asking MBB recruits and parents of recruits to contact me via PM if they would like to visit about the opportunities that Iowa State offers and SHAZAM it gets totally removed from the board in less than a half hour.

There was nothing negative in my post whatsoever. Why was it removed? Who removed it? What in the world are you afraid of?

Zombies, for one.

Read the recruiting rules about alumni contacts in the recruiting process.

Zombies should only scare high schoolers who aren't paying attention in class, duh. :biglaugh:

i kid, i kid.

It got removed because you could have given the Cyclone fanbase a negative reputation. We have CF for that. :wink:

Do you really need to ask? Maybe the compliance linebacker needs to pay you a visit.

You know, I did not even think of that...but you are right. Thanks for the reminder.

By the way, since cyismydog is considered a program insider and he has posted about visiting with recruits and parents of recruits...have we committed recruiting violations due to these contacts?

Then why do you chat with IcSyU?

 

[GeronimusClone]

My father.

 

[CYlent Bob]

Wasps. I loathe the vicious little bastards.

I used to be afraid of monsters in the 1980s, but Johnny Orr usually came and saved me from them. JO is awesome.

I watched Batman Begins, and in order to overcome your fears, you must face them. :wink:

 

[cyismydog]

My father.

GC, I am your father...

Absolutely, but he and others think they're bigger and better than the NCAA. Not to mention, they hide most stuff behind the secret vail of the private social group.

A) It's veil.
B) I actually have a job outside of this for a website launching soon-most, if not all interactions, are done for the site. I am merely passing on information. And yes, I have checked with compliance.

Ahhh, you have to love this time of year. No football until August, basketball is over, and now the CF users slowly destroy each other until August. Great times!! Anybody have any unusual situations they need to discuss, those threads were fun last week...

I thought you retired.

Here's my problem with your "inside information". If it has been run by compliance & approved for release, then it's not really "inside information". It's like watching "Kill Bill Vol. 1" on basic cable - all the "good stuff" will be edited out. Essentially, it's a GMac press release.

I wasn't referring to my "inside information" per se, but my interactions with recruits. A large percentage of my inside info is from sources I have outside of Ames, Iowa.
