Virginia Tech Money Perch

Virginia may not end up with UNC
VT thinks sec expanding with UnC and Clemson if only adding two
VT hopes SEC expands with UNC, Clemson, FSU and Duke, a nod towards brands. That is the best hope for VT to land in a P2 home: Miami, UVA, Notre Dame and VT
VT sees no hope without out Notre Dame
From UVA: Stanford is no longer in Big Ten plan, UVA will be ND’s partner, thus VT = California
VT thinks SEC selecting Duke over Virginia is possible.

He got those ideas here. Here reads this board and forum.

‘Please, sir. What’s a money perch?’
It’s the term Flugar gives big money donors who are privy to inside knowledge or plans in the university. Flugar gets some of his info from these sources as well as other school officials via his original Big Ten network of sources he calls BTM or big ten man.
It started when Flugar was writing for Minnesota 247, BYM slowly fed him some sensitive info, Fluge protected the sources and it grew from there. Then money perches from Southern Cal made sure to feed Fluge info with the intentional purpose of making sure then b1G commissioner Kevin eaten didn’t drop the ball in getting the big ten to expand with usc. The B1G offices didn’t like that, obviously.

I think Greg is entertaining at times although I don't believe he has all the sources he claims he does.
For one thing, how do we know the Big Ten isn't exactly a fan of Greg's? Because he says so? Not exactly a reliable source if his intention is to undergird his own credibility. Especially when he persists in stating his BTM contact continues to feed him information...that doesn't exactly line up.
I listen to him here or there because I get bored and it's not much different than following a lot of the banter on this board, but I see no reason to consider him a reliable source of information.
I will admit I laugh at some of his random phrasing and lingo. "Hot bubble of action" is my favorite one because I have absolutely no idea what it means. Apparently it refers that some sort of significant meeting or something? Frankly, whenever I hear that phrase it conjures up an image of of some guy taking a nice bubble bath and having a bowel movement by accident. He brings the heat so to speak...
Sorry to be crude, but those 3 words don't go together.

Whatever does it for you. Some enjoy watching Flug videos, others would prefer to watch snails eat the algae off the inside glass of fish tanks.
So by ‘money perch’ Mr Flugar (sp?) means a source of gossip for Mr Flugar—not a new or exceptional source of donations for a university. OK.
Well, the guy seems nice enough. So do the snails.

He's been scrambling to remain relevant lately and lifted one of AllTideUp's concepts and declaration that I believed Duke would be partnered with North Carolina and attributed both to inside sources and did a podcast on each concept and all within a week. It's not the first time he's tipped his hand to having read this site.
He likely has a Minnesota athletic department source, but not much more. What others write and speculate about as he scours chat rooms looking for angles he winds up attributing their ideas to inside sources and voila, podcast time. You know when you listen, they aren't his concepts because he stumbles through the explanation of them. Those who originated a concept would have no such problem.

This. Exactly. He has trouble explaining.
He spins his wheels as a lead-up, telling you in a couple of dozen different ways that he has news to break but golly how flux-y it all is wow. Then he finally drops his nugget of attention-bait—which hardly surprises you because you could read it in the title the whole time while he was spinning all those wheels and you were checking your watch—and then he offers some sort of hazy notion of how this nugget came to be. Somehow it doesn’t connect to any real-life concerns anyone has and leaves you wondering when the last time was that he ever visited a college campus at all. Everything happens in a fog—and reminds you of something you saw presented more lucidly by someone else a day or two before.
The fog includes ‘money perch’—a term that means nothing on a college campus. It describes no job in anyone’s athletic department or booster organisation. No president, coach, AD, or player ever speed-dials a ‘money perch.’ It’s a VIP position that only ever seems to exist within the four corners of a podcast. It’s just some goofy thing he says.
But yeah, sure, folks, keep your heads on a swivel. Until next time. Hot dogs, cartoons, yada yada.

The bizarre phrasing and language is actually my favorite part of Flugaur's schtick. I'm not from the Midwest, but I've literally never heard some of the terms he uses.
It's also interesting that when he reads an "email from a money perch" that the grammar, syntax, and euphemisms being used often mirror his own. I'm sure that's just a coincidence.
One benefit of him hemming and hawing over his explanations is that it makes it sound like he's trying to be careful and not say too much. It also lengthens his videos considerably which, if the views are maintained, will be rewarded by the YouTube algorithms.

Flug videos are great for learning patience. lol
