There is no doubt he has decent sources; however, he has been wrong before and he wasn’t aware of Washington and Oregon going to Big 10 until it went public. I wouldn’t put too much stock into everything he says.

Thank you all for proving my point, but I’ll rephrase: CIS liked genetics a lot more when he said positive things about Miami. Now that FSU is the hot flavor, appear to be a clear leader on the way out to greener pastures and Miami’s lack of action is making even the biggest supporter sweat, some are B1G mad at genetics…

(Another Reality: genetics info has actually been a lot more all over the place since he started the ACC round of musical chairs… )

This could be said of anyone, but the truth is probably that more people saw that if you wait 4 weeks, he'll have a different opinion of almost anyone. The latest about-face he's made is on the Cal-Stanford B1G status. Now, they're apparently in if they can wait six years and take a 1/4 share, and Stanford is working on ways to get out of the ACC. Just a few weeks ago, he claimed they were never coming because Fox would say no, they bring nothing, etc.

With UM, it was always ND and UM because they are AAU members, until he claimed the AAU didn't matter that much, or FSU is "close" to getting AAU status, or Clemson is in a growing part of the country, etc. so they don't need to be part of the AAU. Once he adopted the FSU -B1G inevitability argument, suddenly the B1G or SEC wouldn't take UM because it is in Florida and you don't need two FL schools (ignoring the SEC's inclusion of Texas and the B1G's admission of UCLA/USC). Now, he's on to his "flagship" theory where only the bigger state schools are getting into the P2, but Stanford to the B1G is an exception because they'll come cheap and have great Olympic sports (ignoring the facts he previously said only football matters and only Fox will decide, Fox doesn't like Stanford, and that Cal is truly the flagship university in California).

I agree that he does appear to get some information ahead of time, and that he does have more knowledge than most of us who didn't work for a university. But he's all about driving revenue for his X account and the best way to do that is to appease his FSU fans and their incessant need to believe they're better than everyone. IF they or Clemson stumble this year and nobody is watching their games, he'll adopt the next theory about who will join the super B1G.

When was FSU not the clear leader on the way out?

Genetics went off the rails when he started buying everything that Warchant was selling about Miami.

Oh, **** off with your ridiculous pot-stirring.

Even when Genetics "said positive things about Miami", he would immediately follow it with something negative or cryptic. He never had a solid week-to-10-days where he was "saying positive things about Miami".

Just cut the crap. Nobody is "big mad at Genetics". People have been tired of his schizophrenic predictions from the very outset. It's the reason why Miami fans (and others) have been begging for his tidbits of "clarification" for over a year.

Nobody has "proven your point" because you don't have an accurate point.

I agree with most of this… all I’m saying is many had no problem liking that initial ND / UM take, but now hate everything he says because it sucks for Miami…

He’s about driving clicks - sponsored by we’re having this discussion on a website that drives clicks…

**** the guy… but this place just can’t ignore him…

Miami needs to get Miami to the B1G… it won’t be @Genetics fault if we don’t.. more likely what’s in the genetic makeup of our leadership to make poor decisions…
