So, I’ve been following recruiting for at least a decade now, and A LOT of prospects announce on local networks for other teams, other that their own. It happens ALL the time in the south. This is such a big deal becaus it’s MN? I’m from MN and I can’t grasp the fans being this petty, really can’t. It’s a sheltered mentality that has no understanding of how recruiting works.

Its a MN thing. Its a they are "one of us" and there is no other teams. Its the same with other sports too. If a guy is from MN, its our God given right for them to stay in MN and teams should break the bank to get them, no matter how good/bad they are. Its kinda like the youth parents who always think their kid is getting screwed. Makes watching sports here fun, if you are into that sort of thing lol.

Proud to be from MN, but God, Country, Notre Dame all the way

Bunch of salty Lutherans I tell ya.

You can't be mad at a Catholic kid who goes to ND. State citizenship is meaningless in comparison.

Are you agreeing with that?

It who’s God given right? Yours, the fan? Or the prospect to choose? Sounds to me like there are some misplaced emotions at work here.

Are you kidding? Of course I don't agree with that. Its a MN thing, MN folks "think" it is their God given right. I guess I should have used pink or italics or something for you to understand. Meh, Im from MN, Ill just be nice and then talk $h!t about you to all my friends. That's also my God given MN NICE, passive aggressive right.

This is extremely contradictory. There is no god given right in this situation.

Seems like it, right?

I’ll wait for the next gem before I go that route.


All things that are true....we are the land of Jesse the Body and Al Franken.. moving on.....

That being said, I work about 5 Mins from Edina HS, so I hope to get out to a couple of QCs games this fall. Edina has great sports all around, and one of the top 2-3 public HS in the state. Lots of old money running around

and Lucky, sorry the sarcasim was lost a ya. Trust me, no one has a God Given right to anything. It is a mentality of folks around these parts. It is comical

Fair, though I also understand that you know the sarcasm italics rules. Hence you referencing as much. Yet you fail to do so. With only 15 posts to your profile and 1/3 of those coming this evening with arguable sarcasim, you should probably deal with the reaction.

I am a public school kid but it can be taught
and my wife loves my sarcasm, she is the one that matters most.

Don't mind the reaction, I expect in fact. Just want us to all be on the same page.
My bad for the lack of italics, some boards use pink, some italics, my head hurts
Power posting as I worked out late, kid and wife are asleep, and I want to be more involved. Lots to say, so little time.

Anyway, you guys are the best <----- notice lack of italics there....

But for all the nay sayers about JQuinn, have to give him credit for his work on the trail. Lets hope he can coach the guys up.

Less a God given right and more so people who live here are just so obsessed with this state and can't understand why somebody would leave or bad mouth MN. Boarder-line cultish haha.

I picked up on the implied italics and the subtle jabs at those around you.

Getting top tier OL and building depth on our DL is phenomenal. If we are able to keep the same coaches for awhile now we will be in the playoffs every year.

Right? Totally inconceivable that a guy from Minnesota would wait for the Minnesota commitment before he really engages the board.

[someone save this for #OldTakesExposed if he really does end up being an elaborate troll]

What original account are you guys thinking he is under?

I hate when people create fake or secondary accounts!
