Re: Rashad Vaughn

Dear Rashad,

I don't know what to say, really. Three months to the biggest decision of your life. All comes down to April 16, and either, you come to ISU, or we're gonna crumble. Inch by inch, play by play. Until we're finished. We're in hell right now, Rashad. Believe me. And, we can stay here, get the **** kicked out of us, or we can fight our way back into the light. We can climb outta hell... one inch at a time.

Now I can't do it for ya, I'm too old. I look around, I see these young posters and I think, I mean, I've made every wrong choice a middle-aged man can make. I, uh, I've ****** away all my money, believe it or not. I chased off anyone who's ever loved me. And lately, I can't even stand the face I see in the mirror. You know, when you get old, in life, things get taken from you. I mean, that's... that's... that's a part of life.

But, you only learn that when you start losin' stuff. You find out life's this game of inches, so is basketball. Because in either game - life or basketball - the margin for error is so small. I mean, one half a step too late or too early and you don't quite make it. One half second too slow, too fast and you don't quite catch it. The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break of the game, every minute, every second.

On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone else around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when add up all those inches, that's gonna make the ******* difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying! I'll tell you this, in any fight it's the guy whose willing to die whose gonna win that inch. And I know, if I'm gonna have any life anymore it's because I'm still willing to fight and die for that inch, because that's what living is, the six inches in front of your face. Now I can't make you do it. You've got to look at Coach Hoiberg, look into his eyes. Now I think ya going to see a guy who will go that inch with you. Your gonna see a guy who will sacrifice himself for this team, because he knows when it comes down to it your gonna do the same for him. That's a team, Rashad, and either, we heal, now, as a team, or we will die as individuals. That's basketball Rashad, that's all it is. Now, what are you gonna do?

Cheers,
Luther

Re: Rashad Vaughn

Dear Rashad,

While it seems that ISU fans are overly enthusiastic about voting for stuff on the Internet, and writing open letters, and attacking national media members on twitter that imply Fred will go to the NBA someday...

...just know that Fred is like the normalest of all normal guys and he'll protect you from us.

oh, you already knew that. k bye.

Re: Rashad Vaughn

Dear Rashad,

I've seen you. I've seen you from near and far, and in both creepy and non creepy ways. I look you up on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook everyday since we started recruiting you to see if you fit in here. I even watch videos of you to put me to sleep at night. You fit in here perfectly. So, I know where you live, I know everyone you care about, and I am holding them hostage. Commit here if you ever want to see them again.

How was that for the most ****ed up and disturbing open letter yet?
