Non-Key Tweets

Wow, I simply asked TuxedoYoga if his source was reliable and how accurate he thinks his info is and he blocked me. Wasn't being disrespectful or anything, so strange.
Welcome to the club....The Dude will block you too if you break his balls or side wth Flugaur
 
It's more odd than anything. I could see if I insulted him and what not, I just asked how reliable he feels his sources are. Oh well, not going to lose sleep over a guy whose profile pic on Twitter is a yoda in a tux.

Tuxedo is the one that said he had connections that told him UConn was going to the B1G last February. I wouldn't worry much that you will miss anything without his direct connection.

So, if he is making up stuff, I think he tells you he has very high sources because he is looking for traffic. Since he blocked you Bowlsby must be his source! We are in!

Oh I know that, just thought it was odd.

@Hindstr4 @CincyP5orbust In that 2/4 meeting Boren, Gee & Starr have to build a consensus on expansion.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 22m22 minutes ago
@Hindstr4 @CincyP5orbust Building that consensus requires balancing the needs of their media partners & geographical concerns.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 21m21 minutes ago
@Hindstr4 @CincyP5orbust With the needs of existing members.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 21m21 minutes ago
@Hindstr4 @CincyP5orbust UC is in great shape because it ticks off a few boxes. It's close to WVU. It's in between WVU & the B12 proper.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 19m19 minutes ago
@Hindstr4 @CincyP5orbust But the decisions they make during the meetings will supersede decisions made under the threat of needing 12.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 17m17 minutes ago
@Hindstr4 @CincyP5orbust UC, & every other hopefuls, greatest cause for concern, is that now expansion is only feasible with a network.

Christopher Lambert
‏@theDudeofWV If you refuse to listen to me about the B12 then listen to Berry Tramel: http://newsok.com/does-ou-want-the-big-12-to-survive/article/5472760

Albert Ruscitto ‏@CincyP5orbust · 4h4 hours ago
@theDudeofWV Why listen to Berry Tramel when Tuxedo Yoda is on the story? Yoda says UT on board; Cincy and UConn locks.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 3h3 hours ago
@CincyP5orbust Yoda is as clueless as the rest. Everything is TBD. Tramel is right.

The Real Bob Mayhew
‏@HabibHaddad @theDudeofWV If they don't listen to you, they won't listen to Berry. Sadly, most have agendas that aren't based in reality.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 18m18 minutes ago
@HabibHaddad Indeed. It frustrates me. I may just quit Twitter until the Big 12 meetings are over.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 13m13 minutes ago
So Fenves at UT has said Texas is committed to the Big 12 but will not give up LHN: http://sportsday.dallasnews.com/col...-12-vibrant-school-committed-longhorn-network

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 12m12 minutes ago
This is not an issue. Boren knows a network is not possible at this time.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 9m9 minutes ago
Let me be clear: ESPN is short on cash. They will not outlay the funds to transform LHN into a B12N. They can't.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 8m8 minutes ago
It's unfair to Texas to ask them to give up $15m a year. Boren wouldn't do it if it were OU's check ESPN was writing.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 7m7 minutes ago
Boren knows this. He's not a idiot. He is using LHN as a tool to finally get UT to agree to expansion. It's called compromise.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 7m7 minutes ago
Boren will give up the idea of a network now if UT agrees to expand.
 
Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire · 24m24 minutes ago
BTM has information.
BTM knows the info will be passed along on Twitter.
BTM info comes from OU contacts - ahead of curve since April "15"

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire · 20m20 minutes ago
Watch this Twitter page tomorrow - Monday, January 18th.
Impactful.
Historic.
Oklahoma is not bluffing.
This is real.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire · 17m17 minutes ago
Conversation was 1 hour.
Not able to go into details tonight for I have zero time.

Check this Twitter account tomorrow.

As Henry Kissinger said, non-key tweet politics are so vicious because the stakes are so small.

I took a stroll on Flug's follow list as I lay sick in bed with the flu, and was shocked to see how big a fan he is of Marco Rubio. Didn't see that coming... the whole clandestine meeting is very Republican but I just see him more as a Chis Christie guy. And I am sorry every time he talks about BTM I immediately think of the Smoking Man from X Files.
 
Flug's is promising big impactful news re: Oklahoma manana. His spin seems to lean towards getting them in b10.

It would seem so. His information has always come from the perspective of the Big 10. He's never claimed to have sources elsewhere.

UCONN has officially taken UH's place in the Big 12's pecking order.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 5m5 minutes ago
UCONN was the 2nd recommendation made it the Big 12 by IMG/Fox/ESPN lagging BYU by a wide margin.

Greg Young ‏@Gmunz1876 · 5m5 minutes ago
@theDudeofWV you think BYU ever gets in?

Christopher Lambert
‏@theDudeofWV @Gmunz1876 Yes. 12 is only a pit stop to 14.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 5m5 minutes ago
The Huskies were slightly ahead of everyone else because of TV market & basket related tv ratings & merchandising.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 3m3 minutes ago
UH was not wanted by Texas. Or Texas Tech, TCU, OkST, KU, KSU or ISU.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 2m2 minutes ago
UCONN & UC are expected to offset slight losses in revenue by adding NCAA basketball tournament credits into the B12 pot. Or else...

BIG XII CHAMPION ‏@GreggHamlin · 3m3 minutes ago
@theDudeofWV Chris I think those two schools are getting an invite, do you concur?

Christopher Lambert
‏@theDudeofWV @GreggHamlin Let's wait. OU, UT, WVU & BU hashed this out. Let's see if the others want to expand.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 8m8 minutes ago
@Gmunz1876 BYU by far is the only school that justifies addition but the Sunday issue couldn't be overcome for Olympic sports.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 3m3 minutes ago
BYU still may be offered a football only membership. If BYU will agree to it.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 29s30 seconds ago
This is just going into the 2/4 meetings. Let's see what comes out the other side.

Royal, Strong, True! ‏@ProvoTown · 4m4 minutes ago
@theDudeofWV You believe BYU and the Huskies will receive invites to the Big 12 after the Feb. meetings?

Christopher Lambert
‏@theDudeofWV @ProvoTown I believe they will be put in front of the presidents and discussed.

Christopher Lambert
‏@theDudeofWV @ProvoTown They could still decide to wait.

I didn't take it that way at all. I think a deal has been reached between UT and OK. I think it's UCONN and Cinci. His BTM source, even though close to B1G, has had good insight into goings on in B12.

Could be wrong, but there seems to be growing smoke from a lot of places. Not getting too optimistic yet, though.
 
After working out at the gym, listened to Taylor Z. & Greg McElroy on Sirius 84 on the ride home @ 9:15. They were discusing CR & specifically the Big XII. Their theme was the upcoming meetings of Feb. 4th & the effects on Oklahoma. Would if ?be better for the Sooners to push for expansion & the formation of a conference TV network? OR, should the Sooners explore moving to the B1G or SEC for maximum monetization & stability? They made no bones about the fact that Oklahoma is driving this bus to its end game.

Now having seen what the dude has posted, it's the kiss of death....
Meh, a Dude post is like New England weather, if you don't like it, wait a half hour it will change.

This was my favorite:
Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 3m3 minutes ago
UH was not wanted by Texas. Or Texas Tech, TCU, OkST, KU, KSU or ISU.


Uh, isn't that just the opposite of the crap you were spouting for a couple of months.

This is the most honest post he ever made because it is a 100% admission he has no idea what he is talking about.

Following information is the current working perception of the Big Ten in part due to information passed indirectly by OU contacts.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 5m5 minutes ago
Oklahoma is not willing to bargain. And won't do so on February 4th. CCG + EXP + B12N are not chips to be traded in for false stability.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 2m2 minutes ago
OU has a plan of action..they have been following it since start of 2015. 1) To reform B12. 2) Create B12 that serves best interest of OU

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 3m3 minutes ago
There is now a firm acknowledgement within OU that B12 reform is not going to happen.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 9s9 seconds ago
February 4th meeting, in regards for the future of Oklahoma in the B12, doesn't mean anything. The B12 meeting holds no value for OU.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 13s14 seconds ago
The following quote comes directly from a old Oklahoma contact...a contact which has been way ahead of curve with OU info.......

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 1m1 minute ago
"Expansion in Big 12 without a Big 12 Conf Network is like expanding an Orchestra without playable instruments"

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 3m3 minutes ago
Oklahoma,according to OU contacts, was open to almost all 11/12 combos on expansion. But was most interested in UCONN/CINCY.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 32s32 seconds ago
But Oklahoma was fine with other combos..Houston was also pushed..but East Coast...Eastern additions were of most interest to Oklahoma.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 4m4 minutes ago
Oklahoma is now turning the page. Without a B12 Conference Network with Expansion the B12 can't be the vehicle to serve OU bests interest.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 2m2 minutes ago
Will expansion happen Feb 4th? OU contacts say if it does..it won't be to fulfill OU desires. So probably not...since B12 fought for Dereg.

The orchestra line is pretty cool
We're DOOMED. I saw that line & immediately had a flash back to that scene in Titanic with the band playing on the fantail trying to calm the nerves of the unfortunates.

So Flugs "Impactful. Historic...." update from BTM on OU is that OU is not happy with B12 in its current state, OU wants expansion, OU wants a CG, and OU wants a network or they're out... and they're not bluffing. Hmmm, where have we heard that before... Oh ya, form OU's President over the past week +
