I know for sure that AV said he would go quiet if it was going down and I havent seen where he has been on today. He did come on last night and say he had been called to a boosters meeting.
I remember MIT saying something along the lines of he would be back after it was announced to say I told ya so and to celebrate with everybody.
Im not sure MIT wrote the summary posted. Whoever did, seems like they got mixed up with what AV said. There are a handful in the Gruden thread that basically came up with this theory so it could have been one of them that posted that summary.
