Official NLI thread

Oh . His name didn't get called because he didn't sign the letter he was too sick to sign between all the tweeting and interview granting.

I'm sure begging for other offers at the end is a wild coincidence and you had no idea that would get published.

He does not have to, and will never have to, beg for anything and it is easy to tweet and answer a phone but he was not going to sign some papers so that you would be happy. Fever, no fever, think what you want. I tried to be courteous. The simple fact is that you have some other agenda but it will not impact his decision.

I have a daughter in law school who is on the international law review who I need to get involved because obviously I can not communicate the issues and you seem to know when a kid is sick or not. As I said, take your best shot at me, but not a kid that missed his signing day. Hell, call the school and see of he was there today, and likely will not be there tomorrow. Good grief Butch was 10000% correct, I should not have tried. But what I am not ever going to do is share any conversations from the coach so there is no way you are ever going to be satisfied with my son's efforts towards your football program.

I'll let you off the hook because you've made yourself look so foolish today.

If you can give an interview to a website begging for offers, you can sign a letter.

You can continue to pretend that this is about some high school function, but no one is stupid enough to believe that.

In the end, I'm hopeful Richard is able to overcome your advice.

Simple question to finally end it: is Richard faxing his letter to UConn on Friday? Seems if he is just sick this is a simple yes, followed by your ability to make me look like an balloon knot on Friday - so here is your chance.

This thread. WOW, this thread! My eyeballs started bleeding most of the way through, and thank God my boy Jrazz hooked me up with a dancing Kate Upton to keep me going.

To Mr. Lagow: There are a great many people on this board who were and still are excited about the prospect of your son playing football for UConn. Richard has been a great ambassador for the university up to this point, and I still believe that if he chooses UConn, he will be loved and accepted by the entire UConn family. Quite like our mascot, we are very loyal!

To all the young men who chose UConn today (and earlier LOI's): Thank you for choosing UConn as your school of choice! I'm confident that the decision to go to the University of Connecticut will enrich your life in a great many ways, as it did mine. Welcome to the family!!!

That's all I had for now. Back to the dancing Kate Upton GIF...

I need to double-like this one so I'm going to re-post it and like my own post.

I stick my UConn flag everywhere I can.

You're right Dan. Go big or get out out of the game. We're going big!

By the way, it is a well-known Boneyard "rite of passage" to get into an argument with Whaler. For some of us, it takes as many as 100 posts or more to achieve this feat. For you, it was only about 50 or so. Impressive. Very, very impressive...

Now you tell me. thanks for being a friend. Where were you fifty swings back.

 

[Carl Spackler]

The 24/7 article has Richard stating he knew this would be a 2 QB class. Getting a very mixed message here. Does Richard even know you've been on here for the last few days airing his "dirty laundry"?

It's a damn good question.

 

[UConnDan97]

Where was I??? I was fighting with Whaler on another thread!!! (just kidding, Whaler....we'll continue our regularly-scheduled grudge match in the "Conference Realignment" tab)

Whaler seriously..... What is the point of this? Enough already, just let it go! Parents are hyper protective of their children, we've heard enough........

Whaler11-if you are ever on a bridge in a moment of despair, take a little advice. Look for a taller bridge and jump.

I like when you reply after me, because it looks like Greg Lloyd is popping the ND helmet off in "real-time"...

You really need to leave. You've embarrassed your son enough.

Whaler, everyone has had your thoughts from the very first moment the sick thing came out. Minidarren and I exchanged private messages about it, but this back and forth with the pops, I mean.... Just let it go bro.

Greatest hit ever!!!!!!!

Whaler needs to move to EagleOutsider for a few days. He could cheer up both boards with the move.

Fever, no fever, think what you want. I tried to be courteous. The simple fact is that you have some other agenda but it will not impact his decision.

Should I believe him or you?

“I’m not sure exactly where I’ll be signing,” Lagow said. “I’m not sure when it will be. I’m not saying I won’t be signing with UCONN but I’m looking at all options. Anybody that wants to talk to me and wants to recruit me, I’ll be open to them and listen to what they have to say.”

So did he not sign because he was sick? Or did he not sign because he is looking at his options?

Let Dan and Butch kiss your rear end. My agenda is that you aren't going to manipulate our less savvy fans by painting our staff in a negative light through your lies.

At least I wouldn't be afraid to compete.

Sorry you can't keep your story straight.

It took me less than 50.

Seriously, we all need to keep in mind this is a message board and most of us will act differently in person. We are generally respectful of each other off this forum. Maybe except HFD....

Whaler, you couldn't be more rude. Silence is golden. No one wants to hear your negative thoughts and suspicions.

Dude, stop blowing it out of proportion. I don't kiss rear ends.

When it all comes down to it. YOU ARE A FAN........They need to make the best decision for themselves. It doesn't matter if they lied or were completely truthful. It doesn't matter if they felt one way and then switched their feelings. It doesn't matter if they were told one thing and then another. You are a fan, either hoping he comes here (which must not be the case anymore cuz your not helping your cause) or hoping he doesn't. Drop it already and stop trying to play detective. Lets all just get along.

Dude, just get a grip, please!

First, this is the kid's father. If you don't understand that you aren't going to get an "unbiased, third-party look" from him, then you're not very bright.
Second, if you think anything you say in an argument with him helps UConn in any way, shape, or form, then you're REALLY not very bright.
Finally, if you think that my telling him that his son will be welcomed if he decides to come to UConn is "kissing his rear end," then I have overestimated your love for UConn.

IT'S THE KID'S FATHER! LET IT GO! YOU DON'T HAVE TO TRY TO WIN EVERY F#$KING FIGHT YOU ENTER!!!

So I left this board @ around 11 unfortunately because duty called. I have been back for the last hour catching up on what is most definitely the thread of the year.

Quick synopsis. For all the others who stepped away.

Some great early signings, some suprises in guys named Boland (the PA one not Bethesda) and a guy named Tivon Kivan Kivon Walker Taylor? Then a nice stop by from an all-knowing and obviously very caring father who has no idea what his son wants and doesn't know how to tell the rabid fanbase that wants his #bleedhuskyblue. This leads to inquisitions which leads to insults which leads apologies from some and conspiracy theories from others. Father then "takes a break to presumably take QB to the docs". Mean while HFD is MIA until he suddenly erupts into his daily "nitpicking", as they've been called rants. The AD this, the president that, Our old buffoon of a coach this.....Which he is probably right on about 75% of what he says but most people vehemently and angrily disagree because this is not the time nor the place........Its suppose to be a happy day.....A handful of pictures of random D1 coaches in ties and polos later and K. Lagow is back to rightfully defend his son. A first time poster, Steve, then daringly sticks up for the currently-loathed, until he provides us with earth shattering underground 2017 recruiting intel, HFD. More pictures, and more verbal jabs at both K. Lagow and HFD. Hijacking of thread talk, half naked girls dancing GIFs, people cursing, mass chaos and at the end we are still left wondering; will Richard Lagow, hopefully grace us with his presence next year and when he does what position will old "popcorn fart" Pasqualoni play Kivon at.

BTW my guess is we attempt to add weight and play him at strong safety ala Robert Sands, Brandon Browner, Richard Sherman..


Its been fun and maddening catching up on this "thread of the year". Nobody can tell me that we don't have some of the most passionate fans in the country....We just need to grow and multiply our rabid base now!!!!!!

Thanks kcc !

Thank you. How about some ****ing encouragement?

 

[whaler11]

Whaler, you couldn't be more rude. Silence is golden. No one wants to hear your negative thoughts and suspicions.

And I kept them to myself until he decided to paint the staff in a negative light. Few have more complaints about the work P has done here, but I'm not going to allow someone to paint an incorrect portrait of what happened in a high profile situation that makes UConn look bad.

You are OK with it? I am not. No one is forcing you to read.

 

[Adios]

whaler11, you know we are cool. Please, stop.

Sorry you can't keep your story straight.

First you would have had to have ever had the ability compete and then miraculously had a story, which is equally impossible. You prefer to bad mouth a kids actions, question his integrity, all quite anonymously. On the other hand I use my name, do not bad mouth a school or program, refuse to share any coaching conversations with you and it drives you nuts, and I do not conduct myself any differently here than in real life. I suspect that if we were to ever meet it would not end well and I have a real growing concern if someone like you represents or is allowed around the team and the players.
