Exactly. Thamel said since at least Jan. that NO ONE knows where the Pac-12 TV money will come from. He then reiterated it yesterday. Marchand has reported the same, as have others. But we're conspiracy theorists for believing all of them are right and one blogger is wrong?

Jon Wilner Sure. Keep paying attention to what they say, not what they do. Meanwhile...

Huge bomb from Brett McMurphy. Confirms what Greg Flugaur reported for MONTHS (nearly verbatim, in fact). #BigTen already approved Oregon/Washington, though no offer is imminent. Contrary to Canzano/Altimore propaganda, watch what CEOs DO, not what they SAY. #Pac12 #Big12

These John Canzano receipts are just brutal. This guy's sources are feeding him garbage, and he keeps publishing it. There's a reason credible publications never printed any of this. "There were never any meetings or conversations between the [Big 12 and CU]..." #Pac12 #Big12

This would be a nice short-term partnership for both sides. Would be easy for UO/UW to leave for #B1G within 2 years of media-rights deal expiring (~2029). By that point, all hell will likely be breaking with the ACC. #Big12 can replace UO/UW with Pitt and Louisville.

He jokingly said a student writer might be your daughter based on similar writing styles. You once joked that Oliver Luck's son (in college at the time) could do a better job as AD. 2 stupid jokes. 0 personal shots. Learn to distinguish the difference. x.com/slmandel/statu…

I don't fault #texaslonghorns players celebrating like they won a title. I DO fault Rodney Terry jumping up and down like a maniac & pumping his fist while approaching the losing team... 3 days after bitching out UCF with: "We don’t jump up and down or act like we won a natty."

Jerome Tang is not going to #GoCards. Tang spent 20 years at Baylor. Sure, he didn't have the best offers. (Turned down Oral Roberts and a few others.) But he's adored at KSU and he understands the risk of job hopping. One wrong move and you're the next Billy Clyde Gillispie.

I stand by this tweet. #baylorbears big Yves Missi will be a high lottery pick. Too much upside.

IMO Eric Musselman would jump at the chance to take the USC job and return to his SoCal roots. But I think USC wants a B1G splash as new conference affiliation approaches. My bet is Nate Oats gets a "too good to refuse" offer after Alabama loses to UConn in the #FinalFour.

Prediction: Jerome Tang will NOT be the next head coach at the University of Arkansas

In the unlikely event Scott Drew goes to Kentucky, Baylor will QUICKLY look to Texas Tech's Grant McCasland as a replacement. He played at Baylor under Harry Miller & once left a HCing job at ACU to take an asst job at Baylor. Despite Tang rumors, he's content at KSU.#SearchSZN

No clue if Scott Drew to Kentucky is happening, but if he were to leave, Texas Tech's Grant McCasland will be Baylor's next head basketball coach. #kentuckywildcats

Picked LAST in the Big 12. Ends with 2 losses. Both close. Both on the road. Last 3 games: 2 top 15 wins. Utterly destroyed rival Arizona in Tucson. Absolute disgrace if Kenny Dillingham isn't national #COTY. I feel like I'm in the twilight zone with some of these picks.

This is a good list, but you failed to mention that Patrick Dumont referred to the NBA Finals as "the Basketball Championships." The Sands CEO later clarified that he was, in fact, a successful youth basketball player. Not even a Mavs fan, but WTF Mark Cuban? Looks legit:

In a span of one minute, Nico Harrison demonstrated why he's a terrible leader. Nico: "A really good leader doesn't tell the people working for them what to do. It's a collective process." Also Nico: "I brought Jason in [on the Luka trade] at the 11th hour."

It would be nice to add a second Top 100 Texas private school, and TCU is clearly expendable if we need to open up a spot, but SMU's football fan support is too low. Even in the Pony Express era, their average attendance was low despite playing at Cotton Bowl Stadium.

Guns up, motherfucker!
