'08 NC CB/S Robert "R.J." Blanton (Signed LOI to ND) - Page 4 - Notre Dame Football Discussion

**irishunclebill** · 04-27-2007, 12:00 AM

Corwin Brown & Bill Lewis visited Blanton at his High School on Monday. Blanton is getting a lot of attention, and deservedly so. He is going to be a big-time physical CB in college with great speed and the all too over-used athletic skills, but in his case, the term truly fits.

IK1023, no one should get mad because you are clearly stating what your source is and where the source is coming from, that's always good info, even if it does not turn out to be true. It's a clearer source than the "my connection at" which tends to turn into multiple connections who constantly change their tune.

Now, I'm going to get brownjk mad at me again, and I never said or implied that he should not post what "his connections" have to say, I merely said I don't put much stock in that type info. Personally, I put more stock in the type info that you just posted because the guy is not trying to act like he is "connected", he is just passing on what he heard.

In any case, I hope the rumor is true, it would be a great kickoff to the weekend. Blanton IMO is going to be a big time future college star.

I agree with what you wrote. My person at MCHS is heavily involved in their athletics and has met CW on several occassions. He/she asked me to not say who he/she is. I don't want to be a guru or even act like one. I just figured I would let people know how Filer is feeling. I don't know how else I could word the sentence without putting "connections" in it or else I would be giving the person's name away. No hard feelings man.

This is a very exciting rumor that I hope turns out to be true! Everyone has different sources, some are better than others and there is a wealth of knowledge to be shared, but it is sometimes hard to sift through the crap some people randomly create to throw people off track.
