Over the last couple months I've combed through the boards and heard rumblings of negative recruiting by WT since he left. This morning I read Scott's piece which again mentioned WT and his negative recruiting against Oregon. I watched his streamed press conference at FSU where I noted he took time to acknowledge what a great place Oregon is as well as the incredible people that helped him in Mullens, Pat Kilkenny, Phil and Penny Knight. I won't say I doubt any of the reports but, I'm wondering how do we "know" he was recruiting negatively against us and what was he doing? Is he really that slimy to publicly say such nice things about Oregon and those who helped him but behind closed doors turn the knife while stabbing them in the back? Was he negatively recruiting against the very same coaches he put in place by making statements about their ability or integrity? I'm very curious how he could completely void the unwritten rules and etiquette of those in the coaching brotherhood.
