How do people know one way or the other? I thought he had to graduate before anyone could talk to him.

I don't think anyone really does know, but I just can't see it ever happening. Transfer from XU to UC or vice-versa. Won't believe it until I see it. Has it ever happened before?

He's not, zero interest by both parties.

I don't know why you think there would be zero interest. For both parties it is worth at least kicking the tires

For JM:
Doesn't have to move far
Already familiar with staff from DSL and crosstown games
PT Available on solid roster team returning from 4 straight NCAA's

For UC:
Can play immediately
Second leading scorer and rebounder from NCAA team
37% 3 pt. shooter
78% FT Shooter
45% from field

Justin Martin is going to get interest from schools like Indiana, Connecticut, Kentucky, and Minnesota. He is from Indy and was recruited by Richard Pitino (while he was at UofL) so I'd think those two would make sense. UConn and UK are blue bloods and the Huskies definitely need a 3/4 with losing Giffey. He'll have a plethora of options...
 
Bearcatboy, A couple things: first, the reason people are upset is that 247 is a pay site. Members pay for the information, so to post that information on free sites is not the right thing to do.

Second, if you're a fan of the Bearcats take a second to realize that what you're doing is not necessarily helpful for the program. Sources give out this information to Chad because they know he has a pay site that cannot be accessed freely by anyone. If the staff wants to keep a potential recruit under wraps and under the radar, posting on a free site is not going to help. I recommend that site admin delete the info or at the very least that you yourself never post again paid content from 247

Probably b/c its a ******** thing to do. What is gained out of it? You or a friend pay money to get info then bring it to a free site? People work a long time to gain trust from coaches and other sources and then people like you help to destroy it by running at first chance to impress others with all the inside info you just gained.

I know for a fact there are other pay UC sites that are using stuff like this to try and undermine BCJ and get coaches to stop talking to them. If that happens good luck getting any info, where would you get it, rivals? Scout? No, there would no UC info online. No one online has the access Chad and Tim have and a lot of people really enjoy the coverage they provide but this stuff is just so juvenile.

Why is it so difficult to just be a gentleman or lady and treat a VIP thread with respect? Do you do this with your friends? When they tell you something in confidence do you run to tell others? Its pretty much the same thing.

Youre clearly a UC fan, please stop doing this and running the risk that the info we all enjoy getting goes away

Well said. I'm not comfortable getting info for free that other people pay for. I assume a free site will be a little behind on insider updates and thats fine with me. But at the same time, with social media and other boards out there, it's hard to control the flow of info. I feel for Chad, but if it's such an issue then maybe lock the entire board to all non-paying users.

The board is locked to non-paying members, the person doing this has access to a pay membership and is just ripping info and putting it on here
 
Its not that they are butthurt if you share the link. More than likely they WANT you to share the link. It will get more viewers to the site and more viewers in turn will mean more subscriptions. I think its more along the lines of not siting chad(if this is where you get your information from) and not giving him credit for the work he and others do. People trust chad, even if some dont like it.

Bearcatboy isn't the brightest crayon in the box, and he has shown that over and over again (refusing to cite where he hears or reads something). With Chad and 247 there is a difference between leading someone towards reading the site and outright saying what is on the site. It would have been different if this boy would have said "there is some stuff on the VIP board about J Martin" as opposed to "here is what Chad said." Again, I don't expect boy to understand that difference which is why he needs to be banned from either this board or that one.

Not sure if there's a problem or if there's a promotion going on, but the board doesn't appeared to be locked. Even so, doesn't make it right.

Side note: Can already tell the next 5 pages are going to be fun...

I think its a teaser block. It shows you some information and comments but blocks the rest. Kind of teasing you to purchase so you can see the info you are missing
 
I dont really get why everyone is crying over this. He gave credit to the source. If something is posted pay site or not they aren't that worried about it getting leaked. Just like telling someone a secret people are ALWAYS going to talk or in this case post it. There is no way this ruins any of the info Chad gets or pay sites get or recruiting or anything. Bottom line if someone doesn't want anyone to know about it they don't tell anyone and don't post it. PERIOD. The guy didn't claim it as his own. Get over it and quit attacking the dude. You guys sound like 12 year old kids.

Get back to recruiting news.
