It's pretty simple, really. Landon and this kid became friends last year at Rankin High School. There isn't much to do in Richland and Rankin, so they decide to hang out. You said something about San Angelo in one post; that's a great half-way point with plenty of stuff to do.
What do high school boys do together? Play sports, eat food, play video games, and other activities of the sort.
I've asked you this several times, but what does "give a tour" mean? Did Landon and the kid walk to RS high school with Jerry's keys? Were they playing basketball? If Jerry isn't there, then there is 1000% no problem. If Jerry took them somewhere in San Angelo, San Saba, or anywhere else, then there is no problem. Even if Jerry went to the high school, most of the rules revole around coaching your own players.
You must think Burkhart is an idiot. He knows you especially, the UIL, and everyone else is watching him. Do you really think he would do something illegal in public with phone, email, web conferencing, texting and other less visible forms of communication available? Richland's facilities are nothing fancy, so making it sound like a D1 recruiting trip is dishonest on your part.
You need to go drive west of San Angelo sometime. 200 miles is nothing to the folks out there.

I honestly just wanted to make it available to the public to not be surprised when this kid is wearing a RS jersey next year. Hes "allegedly" been staying with Jordan B in San Angelo for quite some time now. Boom, now hes in RS, getting a tour of the facilities and staying with the HFBs Coaches family for this past week... I thought school was still in place at home and you were supposed to turn the school work in online to the teachers everyday. I didnt know you could leave to a friends house, who happens to be the son of the HFB coach at RS, who has ties in Rankin, and do your online homework there??

The DC in this case actually investigated. It turned out to be an address at a camper trailer hooked up to electric power. Needless to say it took them a year to become eligible.
Come on Tebow, quit being the forever RS and JB apologist. In the mean time tell us again how much Tyler Ethridge weighed playing in high school and how much he weighed in college? How in the world do you know this information and why would you even mention it? Saying Richland Springs has a checkered past on some of their acquisitions of talent is like saying Cherokee didn't cheat but was sorry that they got caught back in the early 1970's. Is this just a San Saba County happening? Does the RS school board know how they look to the rest of the state? Is this a competition to see if Richland Springs can acquire talent more stealthily than Cherokee did? I don't care if the Rankin kid visits JB and company but if Gig'em wants to have some fun with it, Why Not? Gigem is not going for the second ring for the thumb, he is just voicing his right to illuminate the dark that is known as San Saba County. Always enjoy reading that the administration at RS is doing their Due Diligence in bringing in teachers, coaches, janitors, tax collectors etc that have football players in tow. Just shows that the taxpayers in the RS school district are getting taken by the sad bunch on the school board. Not the education taxpayers bargained for.TebowTime15":gfqamgkj said:Blue Bird":gfqamgkj said:Tebow, I feel almost like I'm telling a little kid all about Santa Claus.

I don't understand your Santa clause analogy other than as an attempt to patronize me. In fact, are you even reading my posts or the posts in this thread?
While I understand Richland has a checkered past and could add a few examples of my own, there are more false allegations than real ones. The Rankin kid has not tried to enroll at Richland right now. If that happens, I will be upset along with you, Gigg'em, and everyone else. Until then, I simply take everything Gigg'em says with a grain of salt and will mock the notion that the Rankin kid visiting Richland and/or San Angelo is a "recruiting trip."
Where is the "Santa Clause" nativity in this statement? I think you believe in Santa Clause if you trust Gigg'em. They get on this site simply to attack Jerry Burkhart and Richland in general.

Gigem is just trying to make sure that the pain felt in RS is an Ulcer pain. Give him a break. Less than 120 days until the season starts.

1. Sorry bro, you aren’t allowed to have friends over, especially if they are decent athletes. It causes too much stress and anxiety for the Oklahoma Aggie.
2. Please do not be seen outside of your house between the hours of 8-3:30. You should be inside doing your school work, at least until the end of May. After May, proceed with caution. Athletic friends is still a bad idea. Again, too stressful for The gig em guy.
3. Your brother isn’t allowed to have decent athlete friends over either. You can however, have friends that aren’t involved in sports. Friends that suk at football is okay too. We don’t want Okie Ag to have a heart attack.
4. Please be aware of any suspicious looking fellows driving around snapping pictures, possibly driving a black pickup. He might catch you being a normal high school boy!
5. For Pete’s sake...stay away from the school that you live right next door to and your parents work at!! Geez, what are you trying to do?!?

You are delirious lol. So what if I drive a pickup. Like I said before and I hate to reiterate but.. yes this kid was with the burkharts for a week... He drove over 200 miles (3 hour drive) to see his "friend" from Rankin.. under quarantine and has picture evidence of him being in RS school (which is supposed to be locked down during quarantine) and was with the Burkys place (during school week). Y'all take it as it is, defend.defend. defend the actions of RS and JBs plan. I was simply informing the public about this (possible) recruiting violation and for no one to be surprised if he was in a coyotes jersey next season. Not too mention the coaches in RS's district, hopefully they have read this. Like I said, I'm a wait and see type of person. RS would be stupid to already enroll this kid, which I'm sure they know now.
The fact that Tebow had the courage to say this and that about me.. I honestly dont care what he has to say now.Tebow is deflecting and now making excuses. I actually like to hear his response and love to see his biased opinion. I think Texlonghorn/Bluebird made the best statement in the thread so far.
Tebow...Re-read since I've said my two-cents and that you have deflected and denied everything, minus that RS has a checkered past... I'm so glad you said that!!! So why does RS have "checkered past"?. Please explain a little more about it?? I bet you won't lol

Even though I don't agree with your methods, I have to admit that there is NO WAY that Rankin kid shows up in Richland now because of your post. While I'll keep my hearsay/baseless allegations to myself, I've mentioned most of them before.
