That's another site I'm not on - and not for any particular reason, like OB.

Is HD worth bothering with or is it like the AAS - a dollar late and a dollar short?
I am big fan of HD and no they are actually out in front of a lot stories right now.  

 
The fact that his post, at this point, has been edited six times and it still looks like that is alarming. 

 
Oh it was the Braxton Miller stuff. I don't think he handled anything poorly, his post seemed genuinely interested in sharing recruiting news/opinion. It just got derailed fairly quickly.

I'm not upset with the guy and don't know him at all. Just want to stay out of stuff like that if I can.
You could ask him to post a link to the info he uses, but like you said, this is a free site and anything we post is open season.

And those guys were piling on you a little bit about your Bigfoot encounter, but I don't think they were seriously trying to be mean about it. Now the insider info stuff will get anyone that chooses to make those bold statements and says them with such confidence only o be wrong.

Actually that is not true. Unless there is a Creative Commons licensed on the site (free or otherwise) it is still protected under copyright laws. Even with CC you generally have to attribute the work you are copying.

Now obviously most people would be guilty of this once they ever on on the Web, but technically it is protected content, unless otherwise noted in the US.

Trust me a friend has been in court for this. Copied an article from a free site and posted the full article on his blog.

 
Here's HornReport12 on Twitter. I'm laughing because it seems his style is similar across all platforms.  :P

I agree with a not posting an article, but all he did was post Mark's comments and not only did he credit the poster, he credited Horn Sports. This is no different the Gertrudis Posting McPhaul's stuff (except these were full articles not posts) on other sites to drive people here. It became an issue when people brought up old posts of Mark's from Shaggy talking about his Bigfoot encounter. This kid may not have gone to UT, but he has every right to root for the university and be on these boards posting to the best of his abilities without constant attacks. He has never responded to a single negative comment. It has me really wondering how many of them would make fun of him in public or face to face? If the answer is no, then why do it hiding behind a keyboard?

This is not in anyway saying that you were attacking him, Mark. Just wanted to be clear and should have posted this in a thread somewhere else.

 
Either way gotta like a good Sasquatch reference. Totally out of the loop on this one, will leave it alone. I am more partial to Wookies anyways.

I didn't say or think it was illegal or anything. That really never crossed my mind.

It was a simple request, thats all. Like I said, I'm not upset with him or anything.

 
I did not mean anything by posting about the legaility, just commenting on the post and the "technical" side. All it takes is one person to take it wrong, these days.

Trust me I copy plenty.

 
i'm not on the other sites referenced here, so not quite sure what's going on.

However, as a Jeopardy fan seeing the names sasquatch, gertrudis and mcphaul makes we want to say 'Mythical Characters who no longer post on HS for $200'.

I'm just glad McPhaul said we had no shot with Malik and Boyd. 

I hope he comes back and says we have no shot with Fields, Warren, Brossette, Soso, Mack, Lodge, etc.

Oh, NOW I'm intrigued.  Bigfoot encounter?  Alright, SHL, you have to enlighten me now.
