The more I read about the Minnesota recruiting scene in fb and bb, and the influences acting on these kids, the more depressing it is. It is becoming apparent that we're not just dealing with people like Levi Bradley and Pete Kaffey, but a whole pack of wolves and slimeballs just like them.
Check out this web site from this person named Michael Binns, which among other things blasts Minnesota basketball coaches for, basically, racist recruiting practices. To back this up, he (among other things) criticizes the offer to JP Macura over Strickland, lampoons our all-time 3 pt leader Blake Hoffarber, and says that Tubby "wasn't really in control" over whom he was allowed to recruit. It goes on and on ... very hilarious read, until you realize some of these guys actually might have the ear of some top local players.
His purpose with this and similar articles? Apparently he's another Bradley/Kaffey wannabe and "helps" Minnesota kids get more "exposure" nationally through is independent recruiting service (read: "advisor"). Among others, he slobbers all over Jashon Cornell. Because, yeah dude, nobody's heard of Jashon Cornell and he really needs your help getting his film to college football coaches. Most people on this board would wonder why kids even would give 2 seconds to a clown like this, but I suspect the backgrounds of many of these top athletes leaves them vulnerable.
Ugly Underbelly of Minnesota
