Hurry the eff up and finish the investigation? That’s you’re solution to what? Maybe we should send this idea to the AD or do you think they are working the hurry the eff up and finish the investigation angle already?

FWIW - I think Danny, Randy and Donde are after the same thing we want to see happen with the NCAA. Seems like things will go better for them if things go better with the program. So let's concern ourselves with getting the best resolution for the program as compared to meeting somebody's arbitrary timeline. Early signing period is in December. Much can and should happen that is actually good between now and then. Like winning some ballgames.

I hate the approach we decided to take bc it always seems when you cooperate with the NCAA is just as bad or worse if you had told them to shove it. That being said…. It’s time to let it go and fully support the university and everyone to be pulling in the same direction.

I spent a month there once, so yes.

Did my Pulmonary medicine rotation at the JC VAMC. I needed a place to stay. They put me in a dorm at ETSU for the month for $150. Thought that was pretty cool. No phone, no tv, no problem.

Once I got there, I was the only person in the dorm. It was an older dorm. Community showers and toilets. I am on the 3rd floor and literally the only person in the entire dormitory. It was really freaky. Quiet as the grave. Of course my dorm room is down the hall from the community shower/bathroom. It was creepy as hades. Just so freaking eery. Imagine coming back from working out, studying and then deciding to take a shower around midnight and you are the only source of noise. I kept thinking of the shower scene from Psycho… good times 😁

that would have been Ellington Hall, aptly nicknamed Smellington Hall.

Lived there in 1998, fresh year.

One bed was about 6 feet off the floor and cinder block with a mattress, nothing stoppjng you from hitting floor. Communal showers amd stalls with no doors.

Just keep misrepresenting other points to distract away that you don’t have one. Interesting that your go to is anal thumbery. This little exchange started with you calling out posters who don’t think this is going to destroy the program. You’re down to outright lying about it.

Hurting recruiting and destroying the program are two very different things. And you accuse me of misrepresenting?? I don't recall saying anything about destroying the program, and it's been a long time since I've had a drink or smoked dope so it seems like I'd remember that.

All things considered, no I don't.

Three Lions!! Not an England fan, but man they feel like the Cubs to me and have been fun to watch. They've felt due since forever and maybe it's finally their year to turn talent into big wins on the big stage. Love the crowd's passion. And to be at Wembley...this would just be really cool if they finish it off.

Bit of an Italia fan from past WCs, but I'm pulling for England this time. Take the trophy home, Brits.

He doesn't directly give money but he buys advertising. Maybe he will extend that to some players.

It’s all so new and upfront so fast. I’m sure there’s a lot going on behind the scenes that none us will never know, until we do. The AD knew this was going to happen, hell most of us did, and hopefully have been planning for this with the donors.

Allow me to ease any worry you may have. There are intelligent people in the AD working for what is best for the university, student athletes, donors, fans, et al. They are not sand bagging the investigation. This is reality despite the record of the football team last year, this year, or any subsequent year just so you know there is no correlation between the two.

Figured you’d recognize adding on since you practice such. It’s well known and not argued that the uncertainty isn’t beneficial to recruiting. But you felt the need to call out other posters who don’t take the extreme based solely on a mostly benign Austin Price comment. Speaking of adding on, thumbs penetrating butts, drinking and doping so far on your tik sheet. When you getting to cannibalism and animal sacrifice?

Unfortunately our donors have been fighting for control of the AD for years and have done nothing but show themselves to be incompetent. We need them to fix that.
