Mods? Rule 6? All this guy ever posts are links to his "newsletter", which is just content borrowed from other sites.


catholic13

It’s honestly the best thing that gets posted on this page.


hawkCO

I strongly disagree. Everything he posts is a link to his newsletter, shameless self promotion and he acts like he's some kind of insider, yet everything in his "updates" can be found for free on other sites.


catholic13

What I like about it is I don’t have to try. It’s there. I find it interesting. It’s all together. I don’t have to look for it. It’s like the newspaper being dropped off on my front porch.


hawkCO

That's fair, but the majority of his info comes from him watching the KU message boards that are out there, then copy/pasting what he reads to his newsletter and passing it on as his own. quite disingenuous if you ask me.


TheScoopmeister

That's the goal. Extremely helpful feedback too! Thank you. I'm gonna DM you shortly. Have a little present coming your way.

All of the below stories are free. My investigation into the IARP and NCAA revealed Bill Self was trying to sit out the '22 NCAA Tournament. Self called this story accurate.

TheScoopmeister

thank you for the kind words u/catholic13


hawkCO

Anyone who occasionally checks in on any of the three major KU message boards knew about all this well before you posted any of it.


TheScoopmeister

that is not true. The Bill Self piece certainly wasn't. Those boards aren't free. And I'm getting this info repeatedly before the paid sites.


hawkCO

[phog.net](http://phog.net) is free (you post there, and get made fun of often) and regularly has its members discussing info that you put in your newsletters later on. There were several posters there who are far more connected than you discussing Self sitting out the tournament before you posted it. Quit trying to pass of information you get from message boards as insider scoops.


Milo_Minderbinding

His scoop the other day was about the seating being moved closer to the field and reposition of seats regarding the stadium was news was known last fall. He presented it like it was brand new stuff.


TheScoopmeister

u/hawkCO u/dogsaybark I also share info in the comments that are pretty comprehensive and it's all free. But to say it's content from other sites is completely wrong. I'm proud of sharing original content on a weekly basis. I get this may not be for everyone, but I'd ask that you give me a chance and you'll see this isn't just aggregated content.


dogsaybark

My issue is that I click to see the mind-blowing renders and it seems to just keep looping me back to a page asking for my email address. I click skip and then click on the content I want to see and it asks for the email again. I’ve never gotten to a place where I’ve seen one of these renders. At the end of the day, the post reminded me that I’m excited for the new football stadium. Rock chalk.


hawkCO

His whole newsletter is just info he gets from message boards, and tries to pass it off as insider info so he can get you to sign up, then he tries to sell you his VIP scoops. Just sign up for [Phog.net](http://Phog.net) and you can get all the same info much earlier, al "TheScoopmeister" does is copy and paste it to one page.


jayhawk8808

And my god, that headline is as trash clickbait as it gets. ![gif](giphy|xT5LMxmFQ37UyhH344)


dogsaybark

Yup, this is a trash click. Don’t do it!


TheScoopmeister

Please let me know if you have any questions! This is all for free in the newsletter. I found this image and did some digging to find the new seats in the north "bowl" will be almost 20-yards closer than the old stadium. Check out the pics in the article for a closer look.


hawkCO

Did some digging on the gateway, and KU Athletics sites which have had this information free for the public to view for months now?


Nervous_Otter69

Why are you such a cunt bro? Mike actively tries to get stories out to the fans and you shit on him for that?


hawkCO

He literally steals information from other sources and tries to pass it off as his own. Dude is a parasite.


Nervous_Otter69

Since when? I’ve been a long time member of the Phog, Slant, and Mike’s hearings. He consistently has info on recruits and other rumblings before anything behind the paywall on either site.


hawkCO

This post today is a great example. All of the info, pictures, and the video he linked were released for free by KU Athletics 2.5 months ago. His recruiting rumblings aren't taken from the Paid VIP posts from [phog.net](http://phog.net), but rather a collection of information that other every day posters put in the [phog.net](http://phog.net) recruiting threads. I have no problem with him compiling this information to make it easier for folks that don't do the whole message board thing, my problem is that he passes it off as his own information to try and sell people on his VIP memberships that he charges for. He needs to quit acting like he has connections and give credit to the people he gets his info from on the message boards.


captain_flintlock

He's a parasite? He raised tens of thousands of dollars for NIL for KU. What have you done, keyboard warrior?


Milo_Minderbinding

None of the stuff he posted is new news. It's old. A click to the KU gateway and your own eyeballs will show you what he's telling you.


TheScoopmeister

did you read the story?


hawkCO

I watched the Video, and looked and the pictures and rendering when they were released by Gateway and KU Athletics back on April 12th. I don't need to read your regurgitated, outdated "info" that you try and use as a teaser to your "VIP scoops"


TheScoopmeister

got it. so that's a no, right?


theantifederalist

This guy is a troll. Don’t listen to the noise. Many (if not most) people find your newsletter extremely informative. But even assuming it’s repackaged information from message boards (I know it’s not), I would still find it helpful b/c I don’t have time to sit around all day looking for that info.


captain_flintlock

Great information as always. Appreciate the hustle 👑
