As has been more than intimated by dudes way more in the know than myself, we aren't sitting on our hands here and haven't been for a while now- despite the GoR amount/iron clad-ness growing by the day....if your media sauce is a mouthpiece for Greensboro OR just has some weird SEC superiority narrative that they must peddle at all times even when it doesn't make sense to the discussion at hand.

We know Mike is plugged in. We also know he posts here.

Mike!

Both Mike Ryan AND (strangely) Dan Patrick are posters.

Mike is @PIPO and Dan shares an account with Bruce Feldman as @Rellyrell. Nobody knows THAT much about USC unless they cover them and/or sent all their kids there!

@Boarcane some people will never learn. People are programmed to not believe something unless it‘s espn or main stream news lol.

The Sec put that statement out about not accepting new teams because the Miami / Clemson whispers were gaining traction. You’re smoking drugs if you don’t think that was strategically done.

There‘s only so many spots on the rescue boat and other programs got word that UM and UC were about to jump on. So I’m sure the sec got overwhelmed by the other universities.

Nobody wants to be the last grouping on the Titanic (ACC, Big 12 , PAC 12).

Do you still think something happens before the end of the summer?

 

[Genghis Cane]

I wonder if Ryan got the go-ahead to confirm Patrick’s report. He’s been pretty quiet about realignment talk, but he’s got legitimacy because he was the first reporter to break the Cristobal news.

Unless we’re the ones giving them the information they prefer it third hand

Correct. This has been obvious to anyone looking at the situation objectively.

Of course, there is a contingent of this board who are convinced Hard Rock foreva, acc forever, adidias forever, etc. They sound exactly like the majority of our BoT's who leaked bogus info during the Diaz/Cristobal transition. These people sat on their hands for 15+ years as the brand was gutted.

I wouldn’t trust those reporters, to be honest. They could be getting fed bullshyt on purpose. We’ll see what happens.

Just going to bump this old post.

No one should trust the media when it comes to Programs, Conferences and Millions/ potential Billions of dollars in negotiations.

Everything is fluid & volatile and there is no stable ground.

60 percent of the country doesn’t trust the media, sports media shouldn’t be any different.

I’m surprised it’s only 60 percent.

 

[Cribby]

I’m surprised it’s only 60 percent.

Me too lol

 

[Rickd]

Me too lol

Any thoughts on when a potential announcement could be dropped? Would be an amazing thing to happen prior to the season beginning. Going into the Fall schedule with an SEC transfer date would boost publicity and be a nice added aspect in recruiting.
