Nice try to gaslight and distract. No one forced you to post here or tweet on twitter what you posted and tweeted.
No one said you weren’t there. What I did say is that you were guessing. That’s what people do when they cut corners. That’s why you didn’t mention the recruits at the game or the commitment.’It’s also why you didn’t tweet about it. I said just ask next time, no need to guess. Guessing leads to mistakes, as you were shown. You did find the time to tweet at Stu that he wasn’t there and that you had a “representative” at the game. It would have been helpful if that dialed in “representative” tweeted or posted about the recruits at the game since they were tweeting Stu about it.
Where am I gaslighting or distracting. You actively stated I wasn’t at the game. You keep telling people they can just ask you, can’t imagine why they wouldn’t want to…..

There’s no need to guess. If you want to know something, just ask.
This is the 3rd commit to the 2025 class. You may want to delete your tweet here saying it’s the 2nd:

SLU’s first 2025 commit didn’t tweet about it.
………….
You also tweeted sarcastically to Stu Durando that you had a “representative” at the exhibition game, because he wasn’t there. It’s better than discussing a game you didn’t see. But if you were there, and you weren’t guessing, you’d know which committed and uncommitted recruits were at the game, and, which players recently committed. You also would have posted it on Twitter.

Guessing, and copy/paste from the internet without reference, isn’t as effective of an information strategy as experiencing things first hand. No one is saying that you have to do the work and put in the time. But no one is forcing you to post these “shortcuts” as well.
Examples can also be very simple: An above poster here, for example, said he attended the exhibition game.(I was there too) Then he posted about what he saw and experienced first hand. That seems simple enough. Maybe start with that.
…………
Congratulations on being completely wrong again. I was there, in fact, a member of the AD can confirm it. Wanna check with WestPineBills and Carter Chapley? They can confirm it too. Did you go searching for me? Do I need to get a restraining order?

We got into the CJ Noland Decommit, the connection to Phil Forte, recapped baseball @ the A10 Tournament, major spring and summer soccer chatter, we talked Toby Gillen, his upcoming race and his entrance into the Transfer Portal and we finished off shooting the proverbial “sh!t” about the nonsensical choice by GW to change Colonials to Revolutionaries.
We had some fun thought exercises on the Forte/Noland front as well as players on the bottom of the depth chart, one of my favorite things to do on the show.

No need to @ signguy because he was the one who brought up plagiarism. I saw hus post and gave him a current same week example of it. My first reply was to Steve. I didn't ask him for anything. I was merely pointing it out as you all were having some fun with the tooic.
So you are now saying Pete came in town for 5 days and attended 2 soccer games? He spoke first hand about 2 games that were not televised. And the exact comments he made just so happen to have been posted here. Amazing coincidence. 1) He took the information from here. 2) Even if he took information from somewhere else, which he didn't, he still passed it all off as his own. So now you are saying Pete visited St. Louis for 2 games over 5 days.
Remember when you got up in arms about hijacking of women’s soccer threads only to find yourself doing the exact same thing in a thread about Firaol Ahmed. Life comes at you fast, doesn’t it?

This response is called gaslighting, a distraction from the specific topic and example. No one said I was the only person with insight to the games. I said as much in my previous post by saying he does this with other people and posters too.
Pete spoke in the first person, in specific detail, about games he did not attend, were not televised, were not covered by sports media, and were not covered by SLU. (And it wasn’t the first time.) The exact same details were provided here. It must have been a big coincidence those happen to be the exact same things he discussed as opposed to adding any one thing not from there. That’s plagiarism under any definition.
Pete is so informed, and he avoids those threads here so much, that he posted in those exact same threads last week discussing players who haven’t been on the team in 5 months, as well as eagerly believing a false rumor from an another poster.
By defiantly saying you don’t and you haven’t ever taken information from here (and elsewhere) and passed it off as your own, it only makes it laughably worse. You’d rather double, triple, quadruple down, on a plagiarism reputation, than simply say: According to xyz thread on Billikens Dot Com…”
Mistakes and accidents happen to everyone. But what you have been doing similar things for years. It is an ongoing pattern of behavior, of passing off other people’s work as your own.
Yeah I’m gonna need some action taken here @SluSignGuy. Gaslighting is a serious accusation, maybe worse than plagiarism, it’s also another completely bogus accusation all while hiding behind an anonymous name on a message board.
If you really want to throw around accusations, we could talk about “defamation of character”? Is that something you might be interested in?

Really, this again?
Yeah. I can’t believe I’m going to even address this: courtside is not the only person with insight on these games. Neither Peter nor I get our women’s soccer information from this thread. Appreciate him listening though.
If the blatantly false accusations are going to continue, I’d like to request @SluSignGuy take a little action here.

I hope you all enjoy this interview as much as we did. It really is such a fan chat, really candid about everything related to college basketball and SLU. At least two WILD Majerus recruiting stories I guarantee you’ve never heard.

Here's a few links to Toby Gillen content and yes some shameless self promotion, but we've been talking about him since he started making headlines last year. Bonus: you get an interview with another really good SLU Track athlete Emily Nichols.
