      I'm sorry to post again in this thread, but are you referring to the rumors that were provided in yesterdays thread? Are there more rumors today?
      If so, I'm hoping for lucky 777's.

      SFL is back!

            • as an outsider looking in, this guy is not going to be able to get here before the coaching staff has to go in a different direction...honestly, i've never heard of such a difficult process for landing a recruit

              • Except when you look into it, it's not that uncommon for players coming out of Nigeria.

                    If that's true, I hope we never recruit anybody From Nigeria. I don't have the patience you guys do.

                    • I wonder why.

                      1. OE has to be prepped for a meeting at the American Embassy in Nigeria? Visa purposes? Who is attending the meeing? Any Nigerian representative?

                      2. Is there a connection between the meeting and release of his academic transcript?

                      3. Are Congressman Tiahrt's fingerprints on the embassy meeting?

                      I know. I know. I should just stop wondering.

                        “The rebellion on the populist right against the results of the 2020 election was partly a cynical, knowing effort by political operators and their hype men in the media to steal an election or at least get rich trying. But it was also the tragic consequence of the informational malnourishment so badly afflicting the nation. ... Americans gorge themselves daily on empty informational calories, indulging their sugar fixes of self-affirming half-truths and even outright lies.'

                          I guess that's what separates us.

                          • Did anyone else listen to Coach Gross on the Game Plan this morning? Talked about his trip to Nigeria. Said all of EO's paperwork is in order, including transcripts, tests etc. EO has a meeting this Thursday to convince the powers that be to give him a student visa. So we could know something as early as Thursday. Coach Gross said they pretty much coached EO on everything he needs to do in this meeting, including how to dress, what to say etc. He also said that after watching him play that we wouldn't have a chance to recruit him if he was from this country.

                            Cross your fingers.
