Title: Arthur Brown wanting to graduate early is good for us.
Post by: waks on May 16, 2007, 04:52:13 PM
In the KAKE video he talks about it again and about narrowing schools down so that he can graduate early. He won't be able to graduate early and go to some schools because he doesn't have enough foreign language credits. That isn't the case at K-State. I bet it is at USC and Florida or some other schools that he needs the extra credits.. This could be very helpful IMO..

Finally watched it, I liked how the reporter at the end says, "it'd be nice to keep him in-state..."

We should make an academic exemption that states "anyone named Authur Brown will be admitted to Kansas State University no matter their number of credits or grades".  It would probably only effect like 10 people tops.

It's me, Jeffrey Martin. I've written for the Eagle since July 2005. I was born in Hartford, Ct., raised in central Vermont and school in Boston, Mass. Two brothers, parents still married, plus three terrific nephews.

Sorry to disappoint, but a deal is a deal. Bye...

Dear BigXIIfan,

I'm the owner of this message board.  I have had conversations with one Jeffrey Martin (aka Jeffery_Martin) on this board and he posts as himself.  I have his personal cell phone number and I have talked with him on numerous occasions and I vouch for his authenticity.  You will not find a more professional and humble sports writer as Jeffrey.  He has won several prestigious journalism awards, and if I had the financial backing, I'd have hired him to work for me.

As far as MOMBEASY, it is her.  I also have her personal cell phone and I can verify that she is the real mother of Michael Beasley, and there will be an exclusive KSUFANS.COM interview posted from her (as soon as I get a couple of things out of the way.)

So, if you're serious about your offer, should I just go ahead and ban you or do you want to make a statement first?

Thanks.

I didn't realize how much everybody (Florida, Georgia, Georgia Tech, ku, K-State, Michigan, Nebraska, Notre Dame, Oklahoma and USC) wanted him. Pete Carroll, Bob Stoops and Urban Meyer recently showed up to watch the kid workout.

I can't tell if you are joking or not.  But, yeah, people do tend to recruit the number one overall player in the country pretty aggressively.

Yeah, sounds like BS to me, too.  If all those guys were there, surely it would have been in the papers, and surely Coach Prince would have heard about it too and made sure to be there as well.

Don't call this complete confirmation, but i also read that Arthur was visited by several coaches; stoops, carroll, NU's DC Cozgrove... Many of the big time schools.  Also heard Prince knew about it, and sent at least one coach (didn't hear who) as he had a prior commitment.  I'f I find something concrete I'll post it for ya.

Also, he's th #1 linebacker, but is he #1 overall?  Maybe I saw a different list.

I'm gonna have to ask you to read the other threads on the board and get back to us on that.  But as far as A. Brown being one overall...

Wichita event draws top players, coaches


Josh McCuistion
Rivals.com Football Recruiting


 
WICHITA, Kan. – Pete Carroll had to see it. So did Bob Stoops, Dan Hawkins, Urban Meyer, Mark Mangino and many others. Wichita was the center of the college football world at least for a day as many of the nation's top programs were on hand at the Potential College Player Day to watch blue-chip prospects like five-star linebacker Arthur Brown showcase their skills at a special workout arranged for the area's top college prospects at Wichita East High School.

You're not getting the thick sarcasm are you?  There are and (have been for several weeks) numerous threads about that camp.  Please feel free to look around.  Might I suggest the one entitled "J-Mart, will there be a follow-up on the camp story?"  And did you read the link I posted regarding A. Brown?

Best board out there.  Still get all the info that is available anywhere, but without all of the slant that the paysites add.  Plus, the humor around here is generally enough to keep you logging in, even on slow news days/weeks like we have currently.
