November 15, 201312 yr I'm sorry this makes me laugh. When he de-committed Twitter was blowing up with Cards fans saying he was soft, weak, and they were better off without him. Now those same "fans" are blowing up Twitter with "#L1C4" talking about how great a player Snider is....:lol2: For the record this isn't a shot at UofL, rather a look at how ignorant and fickle most sports fans are.
November 15, 201312 yr End of the day, glad Q is going to end up where he truly wanted to be all along...

The things that make Twitter great are the same things that can make it awful. The good: everyone is given a public pulpit from which to speak. The bad: everyone is given a public pulpit from which to speak.
November 15, 201312 yr End of the day, glad Q is going to end up where he truly wanted to be all along... Absolutely.

That bothered me more than anything about all of this. Some UL fans turned on him so quickly.

I guess Card Nation and BBN do have something in common after all. :lol2:
November 15, 201312 yr That bothered me more than anything about all of this. Some UL fans turned on him so quickly. Like Douglas Adams once said: "People are a problem." No idea why fans feel like it's their job to go into spin mode when something like this happens. Let Pitino and UofL protect their own butts when something goes wrong. Not our job as fans.
November 15, 201312 yr I guess Card Nation and BBN do have something in common after all. :lol2: No doubt. That's what I'm saying, every fan base does it.
November 15, 201312 yr Author No doubt. That's what I'm saying, every fan base does it. The "we didn't want him anyway" comments are the ones that always get me... That's bitterness in the simplest form.
November 15, 201312 yr When he de committed they went into all kinds of spin control. Now, back pedaling... To be fair, I'm not going off of what was said publicly, or to writers to spin the story. I'm talking about lunch and golf course conversations about his make-up and his ability to play the guard position the way Rick wants his guards to play. The kid just doesn't have a lot of dog in him, but, like you said accurately, now there is more of a need and the back-pedaling has begun.
November 15, 201312 yr Gives the Cardinals four signees for 2014: PG Quentin Snider SF Shaqquan Aaron PF Jaylen Johnson C Chinanu Onawaku As expected, a very nice class for Pitino.

November 15, 201312 yr What are they going by to make this assessment of him? They are basketball coaches, I assume the hours and hours they've spent watching him and talking to him have led them to that conclusion. I already fired off the text, as you can imagine. :banana:
November 16, 201312 yr Looks like the speculation on here was accurate, as Snider has spurned Illinois and signed with Louisville.
