He just likes to laugh. Better than crying, I suppose.

I'm laughing because Wolken was mentioned. He's in Atlanta now. Y'all still mad over something from 6 years ago?

Smh

Y'all pals? I could care less about him. Just saying that no one will talk to him about this from the Memphis side.

I think he's a goof. Actually I can't say what I'd really like to say about him in "today's times", but he's irrelevant to this whole discussion yet you brought him up with two local guys. Says a lot

Only in context that he got shut out of the story. He is just another guy trying to get the story and can't.

So there was really no news or good news re Memphis? Did Martin says 'why' he thinks expansion is "dead" --- other than a vague feeling?

Wolo by accident. He said he was in town when he wasn't. But it was the first mention of him. One of our message board insiders said an ambassador who went to all the practices said it was Thad Boyle. The guy hasn't posted since. I guess we ran another one off.

What has he , or any media been shut out of exactly ? That we want in the BigXII ? That Fedex is going to try and help? The funny thing about the whole deal is that one guy who is helping us with this most of the board hates.

No momentum like two weeks ago, he said. Boren and his crew are not telling anyone anything. That is why the media is so all over the place about who and when.

Martin is just like most of us. He's tired of getting his hopes up. Battered fan

Thanks --- agree that it's really all speculation now. Guess we'll find out soon / post-B12 meetings.

Except that Boren told Dennis Dodd that nothing will happen until the end of the year. I'm guessing y'all think that's a smoke screen for what's "really going on"
