The thing with Flug is he's not reporting what are stone cold precise predictions of what exactly will happen. His information is indeed more speculative and he qualifies the info with it being the preceptions of connected people. I've always felt he is the best of the Twitterati because he sticks with his info unless there's an actual major shift in the public news. He doesn't fall for the supposed head fakes, or daily "changes" in the news. Also, his information almost always makes logical sense. Where Dude and others throw out a lot of asinine theories and predictions that are difficult to piece together, Flug's generally at least pass the smell test. Reading his info, you can easily think, "Yeah, I could see that happening, it makes sense." Whether he has real connections, I don't know. My guess is he knows a guy in the Minnesota athletic department who has some info. This person could have this OU contact he talks about, who knows. His word certainly isn't gospel, but it's at least worth reading if you want a general sense of the tea leaves. I do not believe he makes it up out of thin air to get a rise out of Twitter followes, where Dude, Mhv, and a few of the others I do believe do so.
