Tell me how that sounds different, please. Just sayin' I am excited now just as I was then (and I subscribed to the local paper for the season just to read about him.

I'm confused. Seems like all (most?) of the people posting here got their degree. I know we all love WSU. We have a lot in common.
However, I'm befuddled about how this thread has been hijacked.
First of all, the topic is "Wichita State Recruiting". Are we recruiting Cheese Johnson? Aubrey Sherrod? Matt Brauer? Paul Guffrovich?
If the answer to any of the above questions is 'yes', then perhaps we can convince the moderator to start threads right here in the recruiting section for these prospective athletes.
If not, my suggestion is that you are making the people who want to show Mr. VanVleet a little love or even follow how he is doing a disservice by allowing this thread to get hijacked with all matter of garbage that does not have any correlation to Mr. VanVleet's performance, coaches and recruiters evaluations, projected performance as a shocker.
If I were Fred and I came over here to look at my thread, I would wonder whether the fans of WSU want to live in the past or look to the future. I would also feel slighted. Where are the pages of posts comparing Deonte Hawkins and Derail Green to Kelly Peete or Karl Papke? Were are the pages comparing Cleananthony Early to Antoine Carr, Cliff Levingston, Dave Stallworth and Warren Armstrong? Where are the posts comparing great shocker centers of the past like Mo Elmore and Paul Miller to Henry Uwadwie?
I'm also wondering where the moderators are here. Several people have complained about this thread being hijacked. Will they please take some of these comments and move them elsewhere (perhaps in the "Greatest Guards who played at WSU" in another section (perhaps Wichita State Basketball) instead of recruiting?
I come here to find out how our recruits are doing because I do not have much access to anything outside the Eagle online. I want to look forward to our future and be polite and respectful to our potential recruits by keeping the thread focused on their successes and not Shocker teams of the past.
Thanks for letting me post my opinion here.

There is a line that needs to be drawn, but it should be drawn to dissuade, or eliminate if possible, the constant bickering between what someone thinks is appropriate and what someone else does in inappropriate. That would reduce the board content by half and make reading muchmore enteertaining and enlightening."I not sure that I've ever been around a more competitive player or young man than Fred VanVleet.

I, for one, am just thankful that we have folks like Trop and others that are willing to share all the info they have on these recruits. IMO, it is far worse to post on a topic that it was a waste of your time to view it, than it is to post a comparison to another player. Threads constantly go off topic and moaning about it multiple times does nothing. I've said my part and will now attempt to try and stay on topic.Livin the dream
