Not classy. Nobody deserves to be treated the way Tubby has been in the media the last couple of days. It's not like he tortured pets, or something.

Is the loss of job fair? Absolutely. Is the timing and leaking of this fair to Tubby and the Tigers? Absolutely not.

Lots of high powered boosters can be a curse at times when they are talking to their favorite heads to show their “inserderness”

I'm not a Tubby supporter. I was only talking about the way he has been treated in the media this week.

And boosters aren't necessarily the ones who leaked this. The one who matters in basketball now doesn't do that. And you know admin didn't do it.

According to Vernon, that’s exactly who leaked it...admins called their favorite local heads to leak it. I have no doubt certain boosters did as well.


Jason Smith reported yesterday that he had heard directly from a high powered booster about Penny....John Martin follows immediately with he had also heard from a different booster the same rumor. I happened to be driving to work while listening to the show

Some of what you are referring to was people passing it along after it broke behind the scenes. I'm referring to who broke it originally.

Doesn't really matter, but things are not always what they seem.
