Clyde Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 It seemed to me like that happened when they knew they weren't going to get him. Same bunch that was excited to land Willie Williams a few years back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurplePride92 Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 It seemed to me like that happened when they knew they weren't going to get him. I disagree. The Trinity folks spoke up as soon as he de-committed from USC and when UL was thought to have a chance. Quite a few on here said I hope he doesn't go to UL before I knew UK had a chance. I'm grateful to the ones who answered my PMs asking why. I was very intrigued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PurplePride92 Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Uh, no. Just wondering. I've never seen fans of a high school not want one of their own at their favorite college. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurplePride92 Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 How many are "quite a few?" Three off the top of my head. All Tell, RM and JCVD (I think butchered that username) all publicly said as much. There may be a few others. Privately there are a couple of others.

JCVD Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 People in the know don't want him at their school because there is more to it than just being a good football player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original Rookie Posted February 5, 2013 Author Share Posted February 5, 2013 People in the know don't want him at their school because there is more to it than just being a good football player.

PurplePride92 Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Here you go. The posts made were before UK was known to be in good shape to land Hatcher. http://bluegrasspreps.com/ky-football-high/jason-hatcher-decommits-248943.html#.UREpmii9LTo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurplePride92 Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 There are UL/Trinity people in THIS thread talking about him going there... One person is one thing. Three people said it publicly and others privately. If someone from Franklin County that was a UK fan said they hope Timmons goes to UL that wouldn't raise a red flag for you? I couldn't imagine being that disenchanted with someone from Boyle County or Bowling Green that I would wish he would go to my favorite college team's rival.

I couldn't imagine being that disenchanted with someone from Boyle County or Bowling Green that I would wish he would go to my favorite college team's rival. Two people said it. And no... none of that makes me want the #10 rated DE any less. If it doesn't work out, it doesn't work out. The worst that could happen is they send him packing.

UKMustangFan Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 A couple message board posters saying they don't want him there hardly raises cause for concern. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Trinity folks know him a lot better than overly optimistic UK fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
