'14 CA ATH John (Juju) Smith (USC Signee)

[rikkitikki08]

Holy fuck, this isn't some sick twisted joke is it?

IS THIS FOR REAL?????

 

[Rhode Irish]

Someone needs to be fired

If it is the same guy as last year I don't even think this is an overreaction. I hate to see people lose their jobs, but honestly...how hard is that job and how do you screw it up that badly two years in a row?

 

[ozzman]

Somebody's head definitely needs to roll for this. Why does this list exist in the first place?

I have no problem with them creating place holder pages in case someone signs, but you sure as shit don't make them a live link that is easily guessable by nosey people trying to dig.

Best post so far. This list shouldn't exist!

 

[koonja]

F whoever lets that stuff out, even if it's just a precaution and doesn't mean anything.

Um yeah, and especially don't say "LOI received"!!!

 

[jimmymac]

I know, type in garnett or quick instead of smith, they all said the same thing.

If we don't get him I'm going to cry. I just literally started screaming at my school here in Spain

 

[Cackalacky]

Sounds like they have webpages made up with everything ready to go and you just have to change a few details before it is published. Now how this got out is another thing.

What's this from? If you look at the top, it isn't a list of guys we have committed, it's a list of signees.

Did it did not JuJu send in his letter?

Did he have an announcement setup?

 

[NDBoiler]

Is it possible we are making this out to be a bit bigger deal than it actually is?

[rikkitikki08]

I mean i hope whoever jumped the gun is getting a ear full. I also really really really hope its accurate information

 

[koonja]

Whoever controls that deserves an Irish beat down.

 

[rocket66]

What time is he actually supposed to announce??

You and several thousand others!

He is not listed as a signee. Even the time is wrong. Its got to be just a placeholder.

Ok Twitterers - this ^ needs to be re-tweeted as much as psosible.

 

[ulukinatme]

Hooooo boy.

 

[TheChosen1]

How soon until this story is on Deadspin?

How soon until this story is on Deadspin?

< 4 mins :/

 

[jimmymac]

Can anyone 100% confirm that there were pages like this for Quick and other potential signees?

 

[30MilesSE]

Yes, I saw the Quick one as well

 

[clashmore_mike]

Can anyone 100% confirm that there were pages like this for Quick and other potential signees?

Yes, I saw them. They have been taken down.

They don't magically get opened up to the public either, Keith.

Why release it into the public eye before it's complete? Especially after the embarrassment of last year? This type of thing doesn't happen at other schools. Acting like this is ok is accepting poor rollouts from the university. We're better than that.

 

[NDBoiler]

Yes, I saw the Quick one as well

Was that webpage ever actually active or was that just a screenshot from somewhere?
