Well FWIW that's not what I hear from my multiple verifiable sources.
It's definitely possible. As I said earlier I just heard the same story from a few people who don't know each other

FWIW I've heard a lot of chatter about him showing up late and leaving early
Have you ever played D1 sports? Ever coach D1 sports?
Head coaches, for the most part, come and go during practice because they have a ton of other things on their plates. This isn't high school sports.
Quite a few sit and observe while their assistants and guest coaches run practices. That's why they have these coaches.
The individual coaches are assigned to specific drills and these practices are filmed, the HC and coaches go over the film as a whole and look at players and critique each breakdown unit.
Listen, we all know that you want KO gone Mick but this attempt at cutting him is mind blowing.

Yes. I said chatter for a reason. I didn't say that I know it for a fact. I also predicated the statement with "for what it's worth"

If we weren't allowed to post rumors and rumblings there would be no need for a messageboard.
Throw it out and see if it sticks, right?

WingU this issue seems like one going down a slippery slope. You are providing analysis with the intent to find a legit conclusion.

I forsee a mock trial on the horizon via the Boneyard so we can get to the bottom of this credibility issue at hand.

Let me know if you and JMick want to engage in some discourse. Maybe I can help.

You ask pertinent questions filled with some probing details. Also understand that our compliance rep will be there to shield the vulnerable from various sharks who have an inherent talent at circumventing the system to get the who, why and how answers. Think F Lee Bailey on steroids.

Let’s just respect the process. :)

it's pretty simple. for example

I know John. John knows a staff member/athletic department person/a player/former player/friend of a player, etc. John tells me he heard rumor 'x.'

Then I'm talking to someone on the boneyard. Boneyard member mentions the same rumor 'x' that John told me about.

Then I talk to my coworker. Coworker also mentions rumor 'x.' So I know for certain that John and coworker are not the same person. Could John or the coworker be the boneyard member I talked to? It's highly unlikely, but even if true there's still two separate sources repeating rumor 'x'

That doesn't mean the rumor didn't originate from the same place, but given the circumstances it's pretty unlikely. It also doesn't make the rumor true, but it does lend a little more credibility. Especially when John, Boneyard member, and coworker are usually on the same page in terms of stories/rumors/information

At least one admitted they had an agenda, which undeniably compromises the “inside information” they chose to reveal.
I must have missed that one.

You think a formee women's player has info on the men's team?

Even former men's team player have no idea what's going on with the team any more, man.

Get a grip.

Jmick may be crazy, but talking to WBB players aint the way to prove it

Enoch and his Durham. Where can one obtain a Durham?

This is extremely hard to believe. I would guess even the people in the Fire Ollie court would admit that lack of effort is not one of this man's flaws.

Are you kidding me? Go watch the last couple minutes of the USF game. He put no effort in whatsoever into coaching that game, especially at crunch time.
