Is all of New York reporting this, or just that guy at the deli in Brooklyn? (source, please)

Reading comprehension must be poor in your neck of the woods. Quote me where I said he was legit or his info is correct. My point was to ask all of the people it his thread who are saying unequivocally that VR is a liar or a troll or that he has no sources if they are willing to take their lumps for making judge mental statements with no way of having proof of their own. Don't assume that you know something unless you can prove it. As far as you attacking me, whatever. Still feeling but hurt that I punched a big hole in your narcissistic plagerism theory?

Ah, if you want to attack rhetoric good sir, you may find me an undesirable opponent. Let's wax intellectual, shall we:

You are defending (by attacking detractors) a very likely troll with no true knowledge of our current situation. In doing so, you are, in turn, opening yourself up to criticism, and equally, open to just as many attacks on his credibility by maintaining the appearance of being in his stable.

Moving on, it's plagiarism - If you feel the need to throw out big words to apparently heighten your sense of intellectual superiority, at least spell them correctly. It will be much appreciated in the future. Regarding this issue, I've followed this VolReporter's posts, since he started making them. I posted a theory over the weekend, after consulting with others, compiling ideas, and using logic (rather than blind intuition), and rather than typing three sentences under the guise of an "insider," I blatantly opened myself up the criticism for my train of thought. Fortunately for me, many others either appreciated the effort I took to write said material, or had a parallel train of thought that justified my posting said spiel.

Magically, today - his new "inside" information seems to have strikingly similar tidbids of information regarding an ESPN situation, and an agent situation, that I outlined two days earlier in my own thread. So yes, I feel the need to call "firsts" in that regard, mainly given, as is the case, our "insider" here has really yet to say anything relevant, committal, or remotely verifiable regarding this coaching search.

So, thank you for prompting this response I suppose. Have fun taking an hour to look for any flaws or breaks in logic in what I've just said. I'll take non-responses or changes of subject as a sign of defeat. Good day! :thumbsup:

I would give my left....well it rhythms cut...

The Chatt Times & KNS have been using UNAMED SOURCES a lot lately. They are very reliable. I would say this us pretty much bullet proof.

Hate to break this to you but Butch Jones will be the next coach

Would rather have then Strong.

 

[DelawareVolfan]

Google quick search has Jones to CU as a strong possibility.

No way.

I must say, 10 minutes after staring at your avi, I noticed she was on a boat and holding two fish. Kudos good sir. :rock:

 

[Dougie_D]

If Mark Stoops wasn't at Kentucky I could see Stoops coming to TN. He may go to Arky or Auburn, but I don't think playing against your brother every year will help. Especially if the reason why your brother got fired was because you beat him.

 

[AllVolinLex]

Does it rhyme with poops?

Hahaha good good

Firstly, the bolder text is a flat out fallacy. I never defended VR in any form. I defended the ability of a poster to be able to post without being attacked for his comments. My thinking is, if you don't agree, move to another thread. Then, I questioned his open attackers, who gave no reasons for their name calling and attacks other than their opinions, if they would hold themselves to the same standards. This is an argument I would ask of anyone, has nothing to do with VR.

Secondly, I read your thread. You took a bunch of stuff other people have said, along with theories other people have posted, and put them together (with your own thoughts and spin). I have no problem with that, it's actually helpful if someone hasn't kept up with the process. But it is hardly original content. To claim that someone stole your post, when your post was a hodge podge of information from a variety of posters is laughable to me.

Lastly, I have no problem going back and forth with you over my feelings about this, but I will not be pulled into some Internet pissing match that loses the entire point of what I posted. So if you want to argue based on the merits of my argument, then so be it. If you want to throw out another ad hominem attack then I am done.

Well my third cousin twice removed told me that saban was coming right after the national title :rofl:

ya'll just need to get on the strongwagon because that thing is pulling into K-Town VERY soon.

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend." Surely you've heard this quote, based on an old Arabic/Chinese proverb. Also, surely, you know that the reverse is true, especially on an online forum. This isn't 1997. It isn't new to anyone. By attacking his detractors, you're aligning yourself with him. If you don't want to admit that fact....hey, whatever floats your boat. But stop acting like it's absurd to think your defense of a liar, or attacks on those calling him out, makes you any less susceptible for said criticisms.

Awesome, so I'm the plagiarist now? Surely you have a point here, when even by my own admission (in my thread title) I give credit that a lot of my hypothesis is derived from a think-tank, if you will. Either you need to consult your dictionary, or you need to actually read my post where I pretty much directly state that while the opinions that I posted were floating out there, they weren't put into a concise, readable narrative and weren't anywhere near as summed together as I put them. I'm not taking full credit for all of it, but don't dare for a second discredit me and call me a liar for something that took over two hours to write, after reading days-worth of reports, listening to hours of interviews, and weighing in on those facts for over two days. Then again, an easier argument would be that my, as you put it, "ripped off" post, has pretty much netted me twice the "likes" you have here, in less than 4 days of being an active account, than you've accumulated in 3 full years and 10x my post count (without ever claiming to know anything more than your average forum poster). In the grand scheme of things, your criticism and apparent cynicism of what I wrote means very little to me.

Lastly, I have no problem going back and forth with you over my feelings about this, but I will not be pulled into some Internet pissing match that loses the entire point of what I posted. So if you want to argue based on the merits of my argument, then so be it. If you want to throw out another ad hominem attack then I am done.

Finally....

I could do this all day. I have a feeling we'll bore people, but quite frankly, you totally brought this on yourself. You felt the need to respond to me initially. You felt the need to throw your hat into the ring. You, to put it in your terms, instigated this "pissing match." Don't be a coward and back out now that you've got my full attention. :thumbsup:

She told me last night that he was coming before to skip the loss to the Irish, cuz.

This is the last time I will address this part of your argument. I gave my opinion on the way people were acting in general on this thread. Again, as I just said, I would have made the same comment irregardless of the OP. VR had nothing to do with my argument. Additionally, your Sun Tzu in reverse philosophy is blatantly wrong. I have not aligned myself with VR. I am merely using this case study to exemplify my argument.

Awesome, so I'm the plagiarist now?
Please, quote me where I said this.

This is almost exactly the same thing I said in my last response.

Again, quote please?

What are you quoting here. I never once uttered those words.

has pretty much netted me twice the "likes" you have here, in less than 4 days of being an active account, than you've accumulated in 3 full years and 10x my post count (without ever claiming to know anything more than your average forum poster).

This is a blatant ad hominem attack. I thought you wanted to have an intelligent discussion?

In the grand scheme of things, your criticism and apparent cynicism of what I wrote means very little to me.

Never been a coward in my life. I could also go on forever, but I will not. I have wasted enough of my time with you. I specifically outlined earlier that if you could keep your attacks to the merits of my arguments that I would discuss them for as long as you wanted. You have failed. So I will move on.
