They didn't take it down because of that. They took it down because Paul K was irresponsible. Gary Nichol was pissed off at Paul for running that story without doing his homework to verify the validity of it.
Also, Paul made some serious errors in that story. First, he stated that Cousins and Foles were informed on
FRIDAY that KN had committed. Rexrode contacted the Cousins family and they stated that Cousins had not been told anything about KN. They flat out denied Paul K's statement. The other thing with this is that KN had not yet been released by OU on Friday. This would mean that Paul K is alleging recruiting violations by
MSU. It would also mean that Paul K is essentially calling Gary and Keith Nichol liars because they were making the news circuits last weekend and stating that Keith had yet to make a decision.
Bottom line: Paul K completely ****ed up in going with that story because it was erroneous on so many different levels.
He is taking this out on Natt. Notice how he didn't go after you or any of the other SpartanMag posters that chose to reveal the same thing you and Natt did in their subject lines on that message board. Anyone can click onto that site and read the subject lines.
There is nothing wrong with paraphrasing news stories. Paraphrasing threads is a different story, but not news.
