Bang Bang Notre Dame Gang - No New Recruits

[HereComeTheIrish]

You know Smalls you know i had a problem with you in the beginning and i made that very clear at Bang Bang. But i am really glad you see the light and moved on. This is a great place to talk recruiting probably the best. We do have the best ND posters and i am glad you are on this site and looking to make a difference. Your a good guy and sorry for ripping you earlier. My bad. Keep posting bro.

Awww..... This is sweet.

I sent Grubl these messages on twitter:

Man, I admire how much you love ND. Its obvious youre a huge fan. People are making fun of you on these Irish boards, why not just stay

15m
quiet about tweeting recruits. Not because it hurts the school, but because its hurting your reputation

15m
I'm not forcing you to do anything, just a recommendation.. Go Irish

He said:

7m
Yeah I stopped some guy said their could be penalties if I dont

I said:

3m
wow thats scary. He get into specifics? about the penalties?

He said:

3m
Something about being banned from campus idk I believe it was all smoke

Me:

1m
Damn.Well dont wanna take a chance. Irish Envy is not one you wanna mess with, they'll take you to compliance. Probably best to play it safe



Fingers crossed that he keeps his mouth shut. He has said he'd stop before. Hopefully he won't relapse. Again.

I have heard this song and dance from Grubl before. who knows with that kid. Good job smalls

Disassociation is no joke. They can't keep you out of away games, but you're basically blacklisted on campus.

 

[DomeLover3]

I think he meant they wouldn't actually ban him for tweeting recruits. I don't think he realizes that he can be banned for NCAA violations that hurt ND... Or rather, he doesn't realize that tweeting is one of those violations.

 

[DomeLover3]

I'm thinking of sending this to every one in compliance. I would like if this could be a group effort, so if you think any wording is awkward or I missed key points please point it out to me. I have not sent this email yet. This is my rough copy:

I regret to tell you that as a Notre Dame fan, I have joined Facebook groups and made a Twitter account that follows Notre Dame football players and recruits. From my involvement in these sites, I have become aware that there is a number of potential recruiting violations that happen on a consistent basis. There is a Notre Dame Facebook group that you may be aware of- "Bang Bang Notre Dame Gang." It at one point had recruits involved- that is no longer the case. Apparently unsigned recruits can not be a part of the group, only signed players. Louis Nix is an administrator on the site and manages it very well. That said, it is not humanly possible to stop the madness that goes on within the group. A good number of people in the group negatively represent the University and anyone- including recruits- can view it. The group is reckless and has caused Nix frustration. In the aftermath of Aaron Lynch, it has become evident that simply because a player is enrolled does not mean that we can neglect their morale. The group largely has a negative impact on current players and potential recruits. The second, and more dangerous potential violation is happening on Twitter. Three individuals, with Twitter names of @j_grubl1, @NDFister and @Star69ND CONSTANTLY Tweet at recruits, almost to the point they badger them. The content of their tweets would, to my understanding, make them boosters for the University. The contact with recruits may be a violation, and with the situation going on at Ohio State, it is my feeling that this is worth checking out. Better to be safe than sorry. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I believe vigilance on the part of the fan base will help ensure Notre Dame's good standing with the NCAA. I am not going to tell you how to do your job, I just recommend that the compliance department look into these matters and do as they seek fit. Thank you for your time, and congratulations on the great service you provide the University.

You do a truly fantastic job.

Yours respectfully,

 

[HereComeTheIrish]

Good job. That's said, they'll likely need a link or copied evidence with a link to the offending nonsense to work with.

 

[DomeLover3]

You think a link to the profiles would suffice, HereComeTheIrish? Or would I need specific tweets and Bang Bang posts? Should I include them in the initial email?

 

[ChiRish]

Good job. That's said, they'll likely need a link or copied evidence with a link to the offending nonsense to work with.

I take it they won't accept Grubl's swag reputation by itself?

Seriously though, they only merely glance at the accounts of those listed above, and a quick viewing of the Bang Bang Gang for that matter, to know what a horrible representation of the university they are.

I do agree, though, that they need to see evidence. I'm sure someone sent a bunch of stuff to OSU to prompt the sex offender stuff.

 

[DomeLover3]

Did anybody catch my allusion to Grubl with the reckless I threw in there? haha

 

[Whiskeyjack]

To add onto HCTI's post, I would provide as much information as possible about these guys. Link to their twitter accounts in the email, and in Grubl's case, also link his Facebook. Might want to include Grubl's phone #, since the dumb *** was stupid enough to publish it online.

Do we have any more info on NDFister and Star69ND? Surely they've tweeted stuff at some point in the past that would lead us to a name/ FB profile. The threat of disassociation isn't going to mean much to a completely anonymous Twitter account.

 

[DomeLover3]

Their names on Twitter are just "Joshua" no last names. I could act as a double agent of some sort and get them to share enough information on themselves that would be of interest to compliance... Seems like a scummy thing to do, but I won't apologize for placing Notre Dame's well-being above the fun of three grown men with nothing better to do than harass recruits

 

[DomeLover3]

Anybody have Grubl's phone number?

 

[DomeLover3]

Its gone on long enough and its my intention that tonight is the beginning of the end of their ignorance..

Absolutely nothing scummy about it. Any legal mode of intelligence gathering is entirely within bounds. Might want to scan the members of BBNDG for anyone named Joshua. Very good chance that one or both of them are members.

IIRC, he tweeted it recently. Check his timeline.

 

[Whiskeyjack]

There's a Joshua R. Glenn in BBNDG. Bet he's one of them.

Bring the noise...

 

[DomeLover3]

"Good thing I only need a 45 % on my accounting final to get a C!!" Damn Grubl, big aspirations..

 

[DomeLover3]

Found his number. Beginning of the end.

Star69 posts on the 247 premium board.

 

[DomeLover3]

He won't be as fun to make fun of, but NDFister may be worse than the Grublmeister

 

[Andy in Sactown]

Nothing on the former, but Star69 (as he is known on 247) is an avid poster over there and while I do not follow his twitter, his posts over there are usually quite good.

I was surprised to see his name mentioned, but he does seem to be on top of all the latest comings and goings. Again, I have no idea how he conducts himself on twitter. I am largely taking your good word that he's in the same arena of conduct as the aforementioned.

 

[Whiskeyjack]

Star69 posts on the 247 premium board.

There's very little on his 247 profile that could lead us to a confirmation on FB. Been reading through his posts, and good Lord is that board a cesspool. Don't think I can take any more.

 

[HereComeTheIrish]

Grubl still fighting for his rights over in Bang Bang... This is becoming absolutely pathetic.

 

[NDPhilly]

the 247 and II boards are terrible. Ido appreciate the input of NDguyinFL and Star69 on 247 though. There are some connected posters on Rivals to. Especially TJ. Wouldn't be suprised if that guy was on the coaching staff.

I haven't been on Twitter much recently, so I can't confirm this personally. I follow him, and I do recall him tweeting at recruits in the past, but that's all I can say at this point.

Anyone who tweets at recruits regularly should probably be reported, regardless of their positivity.

Joshua ‏ @Star69ND
@demarcus11robin any idea when you plan on deciding? Before SR year or after? The sooner the better need you out recruiting @bigisaac78.


@PrimeTime_Lewis #NDnation would love to have you.


@Self_Made8_ good lord. Glad to see we are hitting LA again. Nothing like #NDnation you get offered or waiting for transcripts?


Joshua ‏ @Star69ND
@demarcus11robin @J_Walls need to become great friends. Heck of a WR duo for @MalikZaire6 to throw too. @Mheuerman9 #TE of the future. (Before Heuerman committed)


@dompalumbo22 @bigisaac78 agreed! Can't wait to see you in that B&G representing #NDSWAG!

Just a sampling of his tweets. He tweets a lot of harmless stuff like #GoIrish and lol at recruits... just seems pointless and constant

You Grubl stalking, brah?
