Reply BW to NC State is no mistake!!! (long but necessary)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
While I have read many posts on this BW subject, you all have missed the obvious. There is definitely an anti-cane population at Killian but it is not Billy Rolle. Here is a list of student-athletes that have made their way to NC State. First it was Marcus Hudson, DB, South Dade Sr (c/o 2001) but he had no choice, his brother played at FSU, he wanted to go to UM or FSU but neither recruited him. Once Amato offered him, he used that to pull in others like Tremain Hall, Greg Golden. Now, ask the question where the hell is Greg Golden. He was kicked off of the team with no fanfare and accused of failing drug tests. He went undrafted and I have no clue about his whereabouts.
Next, Andre Maddox, S, Killian and Pat Thomas, LB, Killian. Next, remember Stephen Tulloch, then Miguel Scott, DB, Killian. Now, is this a coincidence that ALL of these kids ended up there. NO WAY!!! When Miguel Scott graduated from Killian, he did not qualify and the community went crazy and took Killian to task, from that point on, they made sure all of their high profile athletes were qualified.
Now, insert the "street agent" and things got much worse very fast. There is a so called school that is located across the Cutler Ridge Mall and it is set up to accommodate students who have the following problems:
1) Passing the FCAT
2) Low GPAs
3) Need extra NCAA core classes
This "street agent" has been barred from most schools but he is surviving because the students in trouble have given him a glowing reference. He gets the job done, it is quick and painless. I'll give you an example: Student "A" is required to have 13 /14 NCAA core classes with a GPA of 2.5 with a minimum SAT or ACT score of 820 /17. Student "A" is in his senior year of high with a 2.1 NCAA core GPA. Mr. "street agent" invites himself into the parent's home (most of them single) and offer to help. Student "A" withdraws from his home school on Wednesday, April 15 and by the following Wednesday, April 22, he's done and presented with an "A" in the class(es), high school diploma in hand. Now, for those of you who think this is made up, research it, find out where Dane Guthrie, JR Bryant and others officially graduated from high school. You will be surprised.
This "street agent" has offered his services to many high school athletes, not just those at Killian and schools have claimed to ban him from their campus but they are still using his services.
I can tell you guys right now, do not get your hopes up on Dee Morley, DB, Killian, he is going to have to do what he has to do.
I can also tell you that the U will NOT take a kid that has one credit on their transcript from that place and I don't blame them.
So yes, we are going to lose more and more athletes from this area, not because they don't want to go to the U but because they are going to listen to this "street agent" and take themselves out of the race.
Forget anything you have read about BW's test scores, and focus on this "street agent" because BW did have a legitimate shot until he entered the picture.
The horrible truth is this: BW was pimped out by some people, people who wanted him to go to NC State. Will NC State boosters pay for their players (sorry CF) but yes, yes, yes and yes. Wherever Amato is, you can bet certain students from certain schools will always be theirs even when presented with much better offers.
I would love nothing more than to expose this guy and the school. If we don't, we are in for a very long haul. If you love the U, let's take this guy and the school to task, once they are exposed, it will be very difficult for other schools like that to survive and it will cut off his source of kickback funds.
I'm ready, ARE YOU????
