Non-Key Tweets

Gee also stated they don't want to be viewed as predators, you really think they would make the announcement they are poaching schools on the same day the AAC media days start?

Do we even want to know who or what "elizabeth" is? I am picturing a doll that he made using animal AND human body parts and skin. One taht he also programmed to with the brain of a cockatiel so that it replies to him but only with "yes, sir".
Maybe I am tweaked...maybe not.

He is too busy being a Trump hater. The guy has issues and his BTM has always been a fictional character.

with the full realization that 99.99% of random twitter people who claim to have an inside source, do not have an inside source:
  • Flug had Cincy/UConn as his 2 predicted additions wayyy before the Big 12 media was treating us like a real possibility
  • Flug was the first one I saw to put together the Cincy/UConn/BYU/UH list. Writers or otherwise.
  • Flug was the first to talk about "horse trading" votes, and said that it would lead ultimately to a 4-team addition. Now mostly everyone seems to agree on that, and a 4-team addition seems likely.
  • He was also the first to say that candidates would be presenting to the Big 12 on an accelerated timeline, over the next few weeks. We don't know if that's actually happened, but there's rumor now that BYU and Cincy have already made their pitch.
Maybe he doesn't really have a source, I don't know. But if he doesn't he's gotten pretty lucky with his predictions lately.

I mean to the extent that any of these non-key guys know anything at all, I agree Flug seems to be a cut above them. His predictions aren't always right, but they are usually grounded in some fact or at least reasonable conjecture.

He's not like most of these guys who make hundreds of predictions a day and pray that one of them is right so they can say, "See I told you so!"

His "source" is probably just a friend that works in sports media. For whatever reason, that person seems ok with Flugs repeating what he tells Flugs on the Internet, which is a little strange.
 
The other thing that makes fluge believable to me are the terms "in the air" and "on the ground" he threw out to describe financial impact of TV sets and ticket sales. This sounds like precisely the relevant metrics and how an outside firm would jargon up those metrics. If it's his own bs it's a master class in bs.

Based on what I've seen from sports media from Joe D to Thamel to Brando to Dodd I would guess his source is more than just someone in sports media. Sports media is made up of biased, clueless idiots.
 
He had somethings before others including aspects on Maryland, Big 12 adding wrestling to the conference & adding schools just for wrestling, and Coastal Carolina moving up too.

Except Gresh.
 
Flug claims only one source and he doesn't really say anything that comes across as sensationalism. Plus, he doesn't wildly through out 15 different scenarios every week to cover his every base. To me, he seems grounded enough to be believable. That's more than I can say for most other key, non-key tweeters.
 
Throw* out, not through*

(It won't let me edit my previous post so I'm making a correction here)

@flugempire Still same 4 favorites? UC/UCONN/UH/BYU?

Have received zero info that would contradict our July 21st statement.

@Jeffery_Cobb However I'm told that ESPN/Fox are not pleased the Big 12 is considering 14.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 2h2 hours ago
@Jeffery_Cobb I believe the possibility grows every day that ESPN/Fox will pay to limit the Big 12 to adding 2.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 2h2 hours ago
@Jeffery_Cobb UCONN / Memphis / CSU. I hear those 3 for 14. CSU remains my dark horse.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 2h2 hours ago
@Jeffery_Cobb Not sure if it's true but I was told CSU dominates their market. Not so of the others.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 2h2 hours ago
My opinion only. ESPN/Fox will pay to limit Big 12 expansion to 12. Keeps the door open to add P12 schools in 2024.

Zach Hedges ‏@zthedges · 2h2 hours ago
@theDudeofWV Why not go to 14 now and go to 16 if P5 schools become available?

Christopher Lambert
‏@theDudeofWV
@zthedges I've wondered the same myself.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 2h2 hours ago
If the Big 12 does limit expansion to 12 UC looks to be the odd school out. Assuming Texas really wants UH in the B12 & is willing to deal

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV · 2h2 hours ago
Industry sources tell me that ESPN/Fox could live with BYU & UH/UC added to the Big 12.

I wonder if he has an ounce of self-awareness when he puts this out for the world to see? He covered every possible outcome in just 8 tweets.
 
Why is the dude still getting posted? He knows nothing. The Big 12 is not going to expand by only 2 and include Houston. That's about as dumb as it gets.
