haha yeah same. The most natural reading to me seems to be that he is down to Hollywood, USC or UCLA, and has eliminated OU and ND since he put never before them. Probably unfair to read it as such seeing as I have no idea what the first part of the tweet means

Well then. That's quite the tweet.

His "Hollywood, Never" would be the part of the tweet that would eliminate all LA schools.

If I had to guess at a translation, he's saying he's teaching the younger guys how to be "G's" (gangsters). A guru even once he is gone. Saying no to Hollywood. It's just OU and ND.

No offense Kaneyoufeelit, but I like Beau's twitterpretation much better.

Haha me too but that isn't what it says. I hope that is what he meant. I will forgive the confusing comma if he comes to ND :)

I'm hoping what he was meaning is something like this:

Hollywood? Never. #OU #ND

Loy is firm that it has only been OU and ND for a while and Wiltfong is standing by his ND crystal ball but he thinks the competition is fierce

At first I was with Beau, then Kane, now I don't know what the hell I think.

See, twitter is weird. The #(blue) stuff doesn't continue the sentence, it is kind of an umbrella or 'subject' of the whole sentence. So I don't think what you said is what he's trying to say.

Like if I said: "I'm headed to Oregon, be back soon #Journey"

I'm NOT saying: "I will be back Journey" As in, I have a relative/dog called 'Journey', and I'm letting them know I'll be back soon.

'Journey' is the subject of my tweet.

At least that's the way I read it, lol. In case this is confusing, what I'm saying is 'OU/ND' is actually the 'subject' of his tweet, not the end of a sentence.

I think that's a totally reasonable reading. But the way Kane read it is equally reasonable. Obviously people frequently fit hashtagged terms into the sentence they tweet, grammatically. I can't tell for sure what he meant.

Yeah, you're actually right (which was my initial thought), but looking at it again, although it could go either way, I feel like mine is most likely :)

Anyways, back to SKYRIM!

I'm opposed to tweeting prospects, but I think in this case I wouldn't mind someone tweeting him and asking him what the hell he's talking about

I mean, I wouldn't mind if fans tweeted stuff like 'Go Irish!', but I definitely wouldn't bother him with asking what he's talking about.

Not sure how it got to the point that i have no clue what some of these kids are saying in tweets (or otherwise)...has the english language truly changed that much? I dont get it.

His prediction was made a long time ago FWIW.


And this is probably why he is going to stick with it to be honest. If he is right he gets a ton of CB points, if he switches to OU now he won't get hardly any points at all.

Look, fuck it, I admit it. I tweeted at him. I asked him if he could beat me in a 40 meter dash, and he admitted, "Hollywood, never." The OU and ND hash tags were just to tell me who his leaders are.

So guys, relax. It was just two sprinters having a friendly chat.

Be honest, when's the last time you legitimately ran full speed?

Last night son! I play pick-up basketball and I'm in a couple of soccer leagues. I USED to be able to hold my own sprinting; Now it's just that, at 39, I've lost a step or 5.

Everyone outside of ND on other sites i read seemed to think it was a UCLA-OU battle, until very recently as ND is being mentioned again. I still see him at OU, but Wiltong is the man so hopefully he's proven right once again.

Per Sampson

ND believes it's in a heads up battle and is trying to get Quick to break the Fresno mold and not play with his cousin and bros at Oklahoma. Alford will visit him tomorrow

Does Alford visit California much? I don't follow too closely, but I can't remember him doing that.
