Yep. Until recently, I worked with a guy who works part time for the Holes 247 site. Friends w/ Loy and eminently punchable, as well.


Also, just noticed noles auto corrects to holes on my phone. Prob'ly keep it that way...

Anybody else notice Loy literally has tweeted the same article of tunnel vision three times today and getting 247 incredible offer at least 6 times since yesterday. I understand what Anna means now. His mock class for ND was ridiculous and even had his own posters laughing at him. I know no one works harder then this guy when it comes to trying but lord his shit is just tiring. He's always gotta go GBdomer on everyone and remind everyone who had the news first and how he knew a month ago. I do give the guy credit though because he gets bashed by everyone daily and just keeps on trucking one. Every fan base laughs at his CB and he still hasn't hit the chill button on that. Then he always calls 15 and 16 year old recruits his Bro's and stuff so don't understand that. But I'm done with my monthly rant on Loy I just wish he would chill. Keep our working everyone Thomas but everyone is sick of your shit.

Anybody else here the rumor of Scott Schrader being in rehab for the last couple months and that's why he hasn't been on the site? Or why he was absent for so long?

They have one bad writer in Dennis Dodd, but every network has a douche or two. They have always been very fair to Notre Dame, imo. They also employ ND alums Brady Quinn and Aaron Taylor.

So Fox owns Scout, CBS owns 247, ABC obvious owns ESPN... NBC doesn't own Rivals, do they?

Found this post pretty funny. Some lunatic had his balls trolled off by some 24 7 mods and is now documenting 24 7 CB's for some mods lol

Animal from PSU site

Animal said... (original post)

Thanks for coming back to visit us at the Animal House, a place where some of you were never really invited to begin with. With just about 6 weeks left until Football once again graces our unworthy world with its presence, I’ve taken some time to reflect on those who have provided me with my best subject matter. Whether they’ve changed their approach to journalism, altered how all offers in Western Pennsylvania will go through them, or finally got a different haircut (not likely)…the Animal House does not forget.

Today we will rank these pillars of journalistic integrity and impartiality; these barons of big boy crootin’… these shahs of signing day. This is a race where they don’t want to come in first. Or maybe some of them do, I can’t say for sure. Some of these dudes seem f*cking weird.

5. AHMED GHAFIR/JEFF ERMANN

The Maryland duo started off strong with talks of #TheMovement, but slowly realized that may not work out as Maryland Football dropped games more quickly than Wes Brown dropped whatever he was holding when resisting arrest by Baltimore PD. Notable CB picks made by the two in favor of Maryland for the 2016 recruiting cycle include, but are not limited to:

High 4* MD DE Terrell Hall: Predicted to UMD by Jeff Ermann, committed to Bama.

High 4* MD WR Trevon Diggs: Predicted to UMD by Ahmed Ghafir and Jeff Ermann, committed to Bama.

4* MD DT Ellison Jordan: Predicted to UMD by Ahmed Ghafir, committed to PSU.

3* FL WR Dredrick Snelson: Predicted to UMD by Jeff Ermann, committed to UCF.

3* VA DB JJ Givens: Predicted to UMD by Ahmed Ghafir and Jeff Ermann, committed to NC State.

3* MD WR Marcus Simms: Predicted to UMD by Ahmed Ghafir and Jeff Ermann, committed to WVU.

I won’t even mention the fiasco at the end of the cycle with 4* MD QB Dwayne Haskins and 4* LB Keandre Jones flipping to OSU.

No, wait. Yes I will. In those end days you were far less bullish on Haskins sticking with Maryland, but with Jones you were convinced he would not flip. A 1/16 article stated as much. Jones officially flipped to OSU on 1/18.

Then there’s this GEM that came to light as of late…

You actually believe that Noah Spence, 5* DE from PA, was a silent commit to a Randy Edsall-led Maryland team??? He had offers from EVERYWHERE. But he picked Maryland. Right. I might have given you the benefit of the doubt here being that 2011 is when I just started taking the recruiting coverage world by storm…but I have it from the highest authority that this is 100% untrue. Noah Spence got his OSU offer early in the summer of 2011, and didn't commit to them until December, but he told the Maryland staff that he was committing to them as soon as he got the offer? How does that work? Idiots.

With their enthusiasm dampened, and a new coach recruiting bump currently being enjoyed by Maryland’s 2017 recruiting efforts…Ghafir has been sliding down this list. Once a contender for top 3, he has become much more measured as of late, and as such has taken himself out of the running for the top spot. Ermann’s info has undoubtedly been more pointed this cycle than his 55% CB performance during the last, but is still known for making remarks about PSU fans being more “cult-ish” than any other fanbase…



…and having flagged comments about his reporting for moderation- despite the existence of an entire thread on his board which calls PSU fans “Nazis” and “pedophile enablers”. Look in the mirror you pussy ass hypocrite. Then f*ck yourself.

4. BILL KURELIC

Bill “The Dean” Kurelic has been covering recruiting and cutting his own hair for the last twenty years. Just ask him. If being his own homer isn’t enough to land him on this list, then his regurgitation of what is spoon fed to him by his OSU sources…is.

Ol’ Helmet is lucky that Urban Meyer is now recruiting at a completely different level. It makes what used to be homer picks more realistic when Meyer can potentially land any player in the nation. But even one of the top recruiting coaches in the nation can’t save this guy from himself all the time.

Urban stopped recruiting Thomas Holley? Seriously? You genuinely believe that Urban flew all the way to Brooklyn to sit in Holley’s living room and tell him that he was going in a different direction? Did you eat a lot of “lemon snow cones” as a kid?

Remember when Andrew Pryts was down to Ohio State and Notre Dame? Same. Only in your articles, not in real life. A month after you stated that it was Notre Dame and Ohio State at the top for Pryts, he committed to Penn State. Early last year you claimed that the Menet recruitment “could come down to the Buckeyes and Nittany Lions”. Menet did almost nothing outside of a visit or two to show high interest in OSU. They did not make his Top 2 a couple months later.

In the pre-Urban era, Kurelic was certainly “The Dean” of all homers, but Urban’s recruiting and on-the-field success has taken Helmet out of the running for the top spot of this prestigious distinction.

You’re still a tool, though.

3. TOM LOY

Tom. F*ck you, Tom. I have a cousin named Tom. He pisses himself when he drinks. We call him ‘Peepants’.

As our boy Loy is quite good at switching over his CB’s before his wrong picks get locked in for good, we will make use of a snapshot in time that stayed recorded.

Here are some recorded as having been registered by June 28, 2014-

Soso Jamobo: Loy was the only pick for Notre Dame out of 24 predictions. Jamobo signed with UCLA.

Malik Lovette: Loy was the only pick for Notre Dame out of 9 predictions. Lovette signed with Oregon.

Ryan Newsome: Loy was the only pick for Notre Dame out of 32 predictions. Newsome signed with Texas.

Jaylon Lane: Loy was the only pick for Notre Dame out of 14 predictions. Lane signed with Oklahoma State.

Ronald Jones: Loy was the only pick for Notre Dame out of 13 predictions. Jones signed with USC.

John Reid: Loy was the only pick for Notre Dame out of 20 predictions. Reid signed with PSU.

You’ve gotten better at covering/correcting your mistakes, but the Animal House does not and will not forget. We are many, and we have a long memory.

2. ZOLTAN SOCKO

Zoltan is the kind of character that you don’t want to…or can’t believe is real. We’ve paid special attention to him in the past.

ANIMAL HOUSE PRESENTS: ZOLTAN- A BRIEF HISTORY

Remember when you gave Pitt a better than 50% chance of landing Miles Sanders? Clowny ass bitch. It was in this article, which was truly some of your best work…

All Signs Point to Top 15 Recruiting Class in 2016

Christ. Where do I even start on this one?

1. Pitt landed 7 of the 18 guys you listed. #DominateTooLate

2. Pitt’s class finished the cycle ranked 30th in the nation. That’s double what you suggested.

3. Ironically, Pitt’s class would have finished worse if they landed the class you predicted here. Landing all 18 of those players would have put them at 50th. Did you ever understand how any of this worked?

They say you should never speak ill of the dead, but those people probably just don’t know what Zoltan has done for them. The Godfather of Western PA HS Football was rumored to have started a poorly run camp, and have used his position within 247 to get kids to attend in order to have their ratings bumped. Maybe even charging for article mentions?

Is this story true? We can’t be sure. All I can say is that if it is true…then I hope he made enough money to move out of his mom’s basement. Add this kid to the list of dearly departed night watchmen of the graveyard that is Pitt247.

Bob Lichtenfels

Greg Croft

Zoltan Socko

Keep feeding me 247…making fun of our number 1 homer is becoming tiresome.

1. ADAM BALIATICO

There’s really nothing else I can say here that I haven’t already said.

Here’s a look at what this mouth-breather wrote about Rutgers’ 2016 Recruiting Class.

ANIMAL HOUSE: RUTGERS bALiatico

And one on his predictions for Rutgers’ actual football schedule.

***ANIMAL HOUSE: ADAM FROM JERSEY***

Were you dropped on your head? Did you not get enough oxygen during the swirlies you obviously got in high school? I mean, Jesus. I couldn’t even fathom writing like that about my alma mater and actually believing it- and my school has an actual football program that’s been to more than 10 bowl games in its history.

Every time Rutgers gets a commit who doesn’t have any other P5 offers to choose from (more than half of your current blockbuster class) you claim that they would have gotten more offers if they hadn’t committed so early.

That’s. Not. How. This. F*cking. Works. You. Mongoloid.

If a player is good and committed to Rutgers, that will scare off exactly zero of the programs across this country that want him. You’re Rutgers, not Bama. You’re headed for a 4 win season- if a good program wants your commit, they’ll offer him. You really think Jamal Beatty’s commitment to Rutgers is why literally any other P5 school won’t offer him? You must be high.

You’re giving me so much to work with that I almost feel sorry for you when I proofread my writing. Maybe sit the next few plays out, champ. But first, stand up and take a bow. You are King Homer on the 247 Network. The fact that you’ve been able to accomplish so much in the short time you’ve been employed here is quite honestly astounding. You’re basically 247’s own Tony Conigliaro. Long may you reign- you make my job much easier.

Congratulations to those of you who have earned their way onto this prestigious list. If you ever find yourself losing your identity- along with your subscribers- the Animal House will be here to remind you of why.

Everyone's favorite disgraced fanboy masquerading as a journalist has moved on to greener pastures. #JHop has a new site that will be focused on PREMIUM content. PREMIUM! And your hard earned money will stay in Oregon supporting Oregonians!*

*Except for the trip to Disneyland that he's promised all pictures from. Can't wait!

#OregonFirst #MakeOregonGreatAgain #ScoopDuck

Welcome to ScoopDuck | ScoopDuck

(Seriously, go read his "welcome" it's hialriously self-important, self-indulgent, and PREMIUM!)

The terrible is name/branding is at best the third most unintentionally funny part of his OP.

Man, I'm trying to be charitable, but you're right. Looks like it's the same hosting ISD uses, right?

Also, somebody needs to get GB a subscription so he can be banned from another board.

Yeah, it's the F5 Sports platform a couple sites use.

...and I'd pay the $10 registration fee for GB to troll him lol

He *actually* thinks he's being sincere and reaching readers on a personal level when he waxes poetic about how they will be paying for his vacations?

This is the Oregon Guru that had no clue they were hiring Willie Taggert. What a joke.

For sure. Especially the middle part where he says PREMIUM five times in six sentences. That's how you know it's the good stuff... he even has one paragraph that just says:

PREMIUM!

He *actually* thinks he's being sincere and reaching readers on a personal level when he waxes poetic about how they will be paying for his vacations?

This is the Oregon Guru that had no clue they were hiring Willie Taggert. What a joke.

This was the crown jewel of comedy. He literally says:
1. I'm going solo so I can get all the profit myself.
2. Give your money to me so I can take vacations.
3. All of your money stays in Oregon (except for the money I spent on that vacation lol).

It's not hard at all to take the sentiment of "support small business and Oregon fans!" and sell it without sounding out-of-touch and self-centered. It's not hard, any amateur writer with an ounce of perspective can do it. But this guy... whose livelihood now depends on selling his product... published something that cringeworthy without thinking twice.
