As I get more info, I'll post more updates.

You're welcome.

Miko, you are so off of your game right now, very disappointing.

Not sure what you mean by game. I passed info along from someone I have a fair amount of trust in. My sources typically are connected to the happenings in the P5. I don't have many connections that deal with the other conferences. I still think the info is valid. The only reason people are rejecting it out of hand now is because it doesn't fit their rigid assumptions about the school that is the topic of this thread.

Perhaps you need to recheck your assumptions and accept the fact that A = A. Then again, perhaps diving into dialectic is more in tuned with your perception of the world. You may even want to go in another direction entirely and reread Nausea in order to reconnect with your existential idealism.

It matters not to me.

You're welcome.

Memphis fans take this as a compliment when Miko trolls your football program. What he is really saying is that
Memphis would beat Pitt in football. Same deal when Cincinnati surpassed Pitt.

By all means, please continue so we may reconnect with our existential idealism.

This. If Miko takes to troll your program then you have officially made it.

I totally get this. There's nothing like quitting that 6 figure a year career to focus on being your child's little league coach for 50 bucks a week. It's all about the quality of life.

I thought your sources were FROM the future. Of course they would know what it is.

No, I am from the future. They are from this time. It is an easy to get that mixed up.

Either you have a Delorian with the time travel package and a almanac from the future..

I can't decide which of the three concepts is more frightening. I will say this though, you might be right with one of them.

LOL. I'm sure miko appreciates the implied homage to his trolling expertise. He couldn't have said it better. 04-cheers

Trolling is hard but its a skill that does not seem to age well. Miko was great to follow when he was at the top of his game; sadly, he has been reduced to this. Alas, poor Miko, we knew him well! Perhaps a farewell tour?

Hey Miko, you suck at trolling. You would think, after all your years of experience, you would show at least a hint of improvement. Hope you didn't spend more than 5 seconds on this one.

I'm seriously embarrassed for you. 03-lmfao03-lmfao03-lmfao

I don't know what I'm doing wrong but every time I try it our loud, it sounds like "Ack, Ack, Ack!" One of my co-workers heard me, ran over and attempted the Heimlich Maneuver on me. Lost my lunch. He said he thought I was choking. I admitted that I was sort of on that UNC cheer. Still, it was a Steak and Cheese sub. 03-pissed

I get pretty good Memphis information.

There are some older boosters who long viewed football as a drain and waste of resources. That group is dying out and has less clout. The Tigers will never starve hoops but football is getting plenty of love from boosters.

This is the internet, nobody has to know when someone is posting through a wormhole VPN. Unless you tell them.

But remember the rules, He1nousOne: too many spoilers and the VPN cancels your account.

Latest news is that Fuentes is looking to bolt. Most likely he coaches for Memphis this next season, but will be leaving after. Latest as of now. Of course things can change, but not probable for this rumor. Starting yo make the rounds now.

If Memphis loses Fuentes and keeps Justin Fuente, they'll probably be OK with that.

But it would be such a scoop if a successful Go5 coach were to get an offer from a bigger program. The unexpectedness of it would totally confirm the caliber of the inside sources that called such a shocking move.
