Going to help put AU on sanctions and rightfully so. Everyone knows they're cheating.

Lorio was known for steering kids to LSU.

This guy is so shady. He's a pizza delivery guy and Wal-Mart associate, yet he's taking high school players all over the country and runs a "mentoring" program for 30 kids off "donations?" Riiiiight.
He's a recruiter for Auburn and their lining his pockets to steer kids from Louisiana their way.
We had a youth basketball program at our church last year and we took 4 teams to the state playoffs (church league) last year. In total, we took over 30 kids. It cost several thousand dollars to travel 100 miles up the road and spend 2 nights in a hotel, food, etc.
What this guy is describing as his activities to "help out the kids" would cost thousands and thousands of dollars.
What a scam.

Good, that's what a good Louisiana High School coach should do. Johnny Curtis should be more like him.

Memphis told us Auburn messed with the wrong peeps and it would come to light. There was more, but it was literally 20 some odd pages.
is there a link?

no, they shouldn't

Nah, he was just trying to steer them away from the trash (Auburn, Nelson, etc).

yeah, but the thread was anchored at the time because I wouldn't reveal what I knew.

I asked this on the SEC rant but maybe you could answer. Nelson says locals didn't want the players to look around outside of LSU, and his goal was to let players see all the places they wanted to see...or whatever his quote in the article is. How many places besides Auburn did he take them to visit?

It's your job to take a kid you don't know to Auburn? And all of this was out of the goodness of your heart? Suuuuuuuuuure. This motherfricker is getting paid. Oh wait...nevermind...God told him to do all of this...

You're trying to tell me that Trooper Taylor is dirty? NO, I won't believe it no matter how much you tell me it

I hope they have the courage to come forward with what they know about AU "SMU Style Recruiting.". It's better for family members to provide this type of information. I can't wait until AU gets the Death Penalty. All of the AU coaches are involved and should never be allowed to coach at any level.

I think Grandma is ready to talk

Taylor sure, everyone knows that without question...well except audodger. Nelson on the other hand..."My Job"??? Your job? WTF, seriously. Taking a kid 6 hours away without his parent's permission, but you aren't involved in his recruitment. If you're doing a job, you usually get paid for it right? Oh wait...

I can't decide what is more funny. Her saying she doesn't like Taylor and Nelson taking him on trips without the family knowing or the fact that she said their staff is not intelligent. Grandma sounds like good people.

That would be awesome

If you believe anything that Thayer Evans writes, then you're an idiot. The guy stuck gold when he wrote his article about Cam leaving Florida for academic reasons (later discredited). Since then nearly all of articles have been Auburn related because he knows they'll get hits. He's never had any credible info, and generally just posts rumors as fact (see his article on Gus Malzahn going to Vandy, it claims info from all sorts of sources).

Someone is scared.... More than just Thayer Evans knows this story
