Bedrock started to get back to the point. Ultimately it's these 17 year old kids decision to play where they want to play. Penn State lost a 5* DT because Larry Johnson left. Why aren't you crying foul that he left a university he had a commitment to? That right, because it doesn't fit your agenda. Not one person has agreed with you so can you just move on? These kids all have NFL aspirations and they want to go somewhere they feel will get them furthest along in that quest. For some it's a university, for some it's staying close to home, for some it's the coach, and for some it's the atmosphere and future teammates. For these few recruits they have decided it's the coach.

Did you read the Tennessean article? We're talking about Coach Poach and ethics. He actually TOOK hand picked kids from Vanderbilt. No one said it was illegal. But ethical??? Is this how he's going to operate? Wonder what would have happened if BO'B left for USC instead of the Texans, and took about a half a dozen recruits with him from Penn State? The Nits would have cried bloody murder. Talking about crying foul.
Now it's just Moldy CRYING!!!

When Pitt fans look at moldo and call him wrong he should realize he went too far... Some days I question if he is even a Pitt fan or just a PSU hater

Moldo doesn't understand that a verbal commitment is not set in stone. They are not Vanderbilt's players until they officially sign with them on Signing Day. It is no different than Thomas Holley switching his commitment to Florida after O'Brien left and you don't hear PSU fans crying about that do you? These are kids, it happens often that they might change their mind.

There are a lot of things Mold doesn't understand! I give him credit though, he doesn't give up.

He is like one of those gnats flying around your face that just won't go away.

I have an 80+ year old widow grandmother. She lives alone and has for 10 years since my grandfather died. She has no job, no family at home, has early stages of dementia, and has little to no social life. Every time I go visit her, she has another complaint about her neighbors. One week the cut their grass too low, the next weeks it's too high, their leaves are blowing in her yard, their dog barked one night last week, they are building a shed that will "block her view,"and so on. These are all actual complaints I have received from her. We try to explain rationally why some of these things aren't a big deal but she is convinced she's right and will do anything to prove it (this includes a time she spent $4000 to get her land resurveyed without any of us knowing about it).
These are all things that anyone with a job, a stable mind, a social life, or are raising a family would just brush off and move on because they actually have more important things to do in life.
I've now realized that I will no longer laugh at moldo's post because (like my grandmother) there is no way someone with a stable job, mind, family, or social life could worry about things the way he does. I now understand that their must be a complete imbalance in his life and I hope you can figure things out going forward.
