#1 Recruit & Kneeling
« on: June 28, 2018, 07:01:04 PM »
Yeah, uhh, so the #1 recruit in the country says he's going to kneel before every game his SR year.  And his top 5 schools to choose from are:
Alabama
USC
Oregon
Florida St
LSU

I wonder which 3 fanbases would have a problem with his choice.   :67:

Does the OP not know about the recruiting thread?

Were I recruiting the young man, I'd tell him, "Son, kneel every remaining game in high school, because you won't be kneeling in college on this sideline."

They can’t. They’re in the locker room during the anthem, as NFL teams used to be before some branch of the military gave the NFL money to put the players out there.

This is an unintentional ... I guess pun? And I enjoyed that. 
Not kneeling, but also not standing.

3 Huskers kneeled during the anthem a couple seasons ago
hasn't happened since, but I think they are still on the sideline during the anthem

I'm guessing this was very intentional

Maybe about time to consider revoking the OP's ability to start new threads for a week or two?

Well I'd classify this as an obvious troll thread for multiple reasons.
1) We already have a recruiting thread where the initial post would have been appropriate.
B) This recruit has nothing whatsoever to do with the Big Ten. His list was 2 SECs, 2 PAC 12s and an ACC. 
III) The motive was obviously to start a thread about a hot-button political issue, thinly veiled with a FB slant in order to circumvent the rules that prohibit starting threads about hot-button political issues on one of the Conference boards instead of using the unmoderated or off-topic boards. 

So in conclusion, I surmise that the OP decided not to post this in the recruiting thread, on the unmoderated board or over on the SEC board for the sole purpose of stirring up poop where it would get the most attention. The OP also has a long history of doing this sorta thing in the past, particularly during the slow off-season.

wtf does OP mean??

A - I didn't think to put it on the recruiting thread, if someone with the know-how wants to do that, great.  You're accusing me of planning this out and that's creepy/unappreciated.
B - It's poking fun at the SEC/southern schools and the idea of them jeering their own player instead of cheering him, for a pre-game gesture.  
C - Chill the fuk out, bro.  Your legalese is creepy and I'd like to prescribe a chill pill for you.
