Rashad Vaughn - Not going to ISU

[ribsnwhiskey]

Re: Rashad Vaughn

He could have taken his trips before the early signing period. He's visited most of these schools at least once on unofficials. How in the world are other recruits able to get this done and make their decision prior to the early signing period? I realize it's his choice to handle this however he wants, and we have no choice but to be patient, but don't act like there's no way he could have made this decision any earlier.

Uh, maybe he wants to take in some great games in great environments? Maybe he hasn't gotten a good look at enough schools? Maybe his parents are encouraging him to take his time? Maybe, *just maybe*, he still hasn't decided. OMFG, can you believe that? Other recruits have decided, so why hasn't he??? How about you just ignore it instead of ********?

Looks like he is working to get to the NBA by going to Findlay high school and being on national stage of recruiting for the long time period.

Re: Rashad Vaughn

For as long as this thread is, I would have thought everyone would have figured out recruiting already.

It is in RV's best interest to wait. There is no need for ISU fans to be narcissistic about RV's recruiting process and it certainly does not help anything. If you are familiar with recruiting you would realize that all things considered RV has been extremely respectful by playing it close to the vest and early on telling everyone he would sign in the spring.

As long as he doesn't pull a Cliff Alexander-fake hat grab at his press conference I won't be ******. Disappointed, sure, but not ******. That was such a d*** move in a press conference you can't help but laugh.

Well, unless he does it by faking out the North Carolina or UNLV fans and then picking our hat. I wouldn't wish that treatment on the Gophers though. Just UNC, UK, KU, UNLV, etc.

I never saw that until you mentioned it. Can't stop laughing at this. The best part is seeing Illinois students reactions to it and them crying about it.

Re: Rashad Vaughn

In general I don't have a problem with recruits. What I do have a problem with is stuff like Vaughn and I don't know its really Vaughn but rather the people on the internet over-analyzing every tidbit of information, no matter how small and insignificant it may be and trying to draw conclusions from it with regard to how a teenager may make up their mind on something really important months from now.

FIFY...this is what you're really reacting to. Rashad's not actually talking or 'swaying'...the swaying you're reacting to is the over-analysis of people on the internet trying to figure out what's going to happen in the presence of little real information. Keep that in mind when you're reading things, and it won't be so bothersome...hopefully. If it does, stop bothering. All this internet stuff is 99.7% speculation and conclusion jumping.

I am intrigued by this Instant Gratification Cereal. Been living on regular Bachelor Chow for a long time. Could use some variety especially if it is also gratifying.

Pretty sure that is the only thing I've posted in this thread. Don't change something in a quote. I am not saying he's a bad person but I'd rather he was somewhat media silent.

Since you're new here....FIFY means Fixed it for you, and means explicitly to you and everyone else that I changed something in your quote, also indicated by the section that's bolded...which explicitly means "hey everyone, this is what I changed."

OK, now that you're (hopefully) not all uptight that I was trying to change your words....here's what I was saying...you say he's changing daily...but Rashad's not saying anything other than a random tweet here and there which are nothing official, and never anything saying...hey, I'm leaning this way. All he's officially said is who is still in the running and who he's visiting. All the 'swaying' you're seeing...is just everyone else overanalyzing every little scrap of information and jumping to conclusions. Hey, Kentucky was added back in...OMG HE'S GOING TO KENTUCKY...tweeted Fred's wife happy birthday...OMG HE'S OURS...tweets a number 13...OMG KANSAS HAS A NUMBER 13 OPEN NEXT YEAR (OK, that last one's made up, but you get my point).

I was trying to help you stop fretting over the 'swaying' you referenced. There has been no swaying from Rashad, just the speculation by everyone else. If you can't read it with that in mind, stay out of the recruiting talks, because that's what 99.9% of those talks are.

Didn't know what FIFY meant but I didn't see it either. Sorry if I snapped on you. I don't think he is purposely doing anything but people have talked about his handler saying stuff, and that is wrong. I have no problem with him not making a decision but I think he should be extra careful about what he tweets and says. That being said yes people overanalyze and thats wrong too.

Re: Rashad Vaughn

A lot of people are joining this thread super late, and aren't able to take everything in context to the reality of the situation. It's kind of funny actually. At least the tarheel guy hasn't been here for a while. He's probably trolling KY's board right now.

Food for thought: Tighty whitey's aren't eye candy for girls. Plus, they may be offended if you have a large bag of dog food you are dumping into a bowl for a snack to give to her for your romantic night.
