Guess you will need to fork over the bucks on some pay sites... Then find out that while they will drop names, the odds of perfect accuracy aren't any better.

Just appreciate how these guys share what they can. When they are writing for a site, there are contactual limitations to what they can say, and ethical limitataions to what they can share in order to protect the contacts they do have.

jhopduck, I, as well as most of the rest of us appreciate anything you can (Or are willing to... ) share.

Thanks for the soapbox!
Agreed 100%.....You other guys, if ya dont want what u r reading, go somewhere else....Thanks jhop.....You ARE a valued source of info.....

GOOOOOO DUCKS AND jhop, you rock.....

Geeez JHOP, don't get your panties all in a bunch. I was just commenting on how you phrased the sentence. I love the news and the "inside info" you guys provide, which is why, as a 30+ year duck fan, I come here. But if you know something you know something and it shouldn't be "expect some possible good news" it should just be "expect some good news." If the info isn't solid then why tease us with maybe's and possiblies? I think we all know we might possibly have a chance wiith some of the recruits we are going after.

I'm sorry if I've offended you, but man learn to take a little feedback whether you feel its constructive or not.

Why bite the hand that feeds? Jhop, Mops, and Tony provide us with FREE information. How can you complain about that. And of course they have to be a little vague this early in the process. I appreciate everything the insiders bring to this site. Thanks for the information JHop.

No, you guys are fine, I'm not bothered by it. And also no the dots don't mean anything, wish I was that sly.
I deleted it because I need to chose my words more carefully. And only very recently have I been allowed to get privy information. I don't want to abuse that new gift early on. As a duck fan first and foremost I'd love nothing more than to share EVERYTHING with you guys all right away, but realize I can't. I'll share this: it's my post on DT about chances with visitors and a few deciding players in August.

Here's my list of likelies spread into categories.

Great Chance:
1.Dior Mathis
2.Chris Mccain
3.Munchie Legaux

Pretty good chance(don't tell the Bama fans Matt)
4.Keenan Allen

50-50
5.George Uko(may not decide in Aug. now???)

Wish list-not overly optimistic
6.Gabe King

Issac Dixon not on list. I don't know when he's visiting or deciding. If I made a guess though, I'd put him in great chance area.

JHOP...Thanks for all the info you provide us with. I have to admit sometimes I wish could provide more info.. butttttttt at the same time I realize... those with the inside information.. can only relay so much and i most defnitely respect position you are in.. given almost like a new toy but yet cant share everything.. because have to protect the information in hopes will be trusted with more as the days.. months and years pass by. You MOps TOny or anyone else for that matter who happens to have inside information to me are sooo extremely appreciated. I know Mops does teasing and am soo new on this site I could not figure things out till it came out.. but that is my naiveness. I personally and wholeheartedly enjoy all the free information are able to provide.. even if at times due to my naiveness the teasing frustrates me.. to me it just means i have to wait.. till maybe it is spelled out. Thats fine.. since these are recruits they as we know change mind frequently. As for that list.. its an impressive list. I would love to get Uko.. course i would still love to get Owa.. but oh well.

On this site the guessing is part of the intrigue... I remember getting abused for not ponying up the cash for even discussing any recriting topic at a couple other sites (Which shall remain nameless...), even when I was the one bringing new info that had been obtained on open news services.

I'll take this site any day.

I've talked to Dixon a couple of times and he keeps saying he's going to come out here, not sure when though.

Good stuff jhop. I really hope McCain commits to us soon, mainly because I feel like that'll help even more with landing more of those NC guys.

ditto ... I appreciate anything since this is a free site and I can't afford the pay sites.
