I don't have twitter, nor do I plan on it.

The UNLV AD confirmed the offer. It was more of whether he was going to take it or not. Manhattan confirmed Masseillo taking the job.

Its one thing to report some crazy ass rumor. its other to report something that is valid. You're being ridiculous to even compare that to tuxedo Yoda.

No, you've just been sucked into this gossip riddled generation that has no clue the meaning of what real news is ... Real news is when Harlan is standing at a podium introducing our new coach.
Sorry. When a coach accepts a job, signs an offer sheet and then gets it rescinded because of a false resume, it's news.

When another AD comes out and says we've offered their head coach a job it's news.

I agree with you on all the BS, but pretending like Masiello and Rice news is gossip is idiotic.

This is the AD's tweet:

UNLV ad Tina Kunzer-Murphy on Rice: 'Dave does have a solid offer from South Florida. I really think that tomorrow we’ll have it resolved.'

Point of order, that's not the AD's tweet.

Very sharp Trip. :) It is the tweet regarding the AD that the guy built his story on. I could have stated it more clearly.

More disappointed in the search firm we hired to run this thing. If I was AD I would demand money back.

 

There isn't enough info on what really happened to even know if there is anyone to be disappointed in. Its a bunch of speculation, who did what and when. I think what happened it the search firm said he was looking good so far and to speed up the process, because time is a factor, sent him to USF to interview and he was told pending the rest of the vetting, he was hired. He told his students, it got leaked via social media and then Kentucky gets back with its findings. And anyone that requested transcripts knows they are sent by mail, sealed, from the school. I don't think finding he didn't have a degree was simple as a phone call, especially given the circumstances about the confutation on why he doesn't have a degree.

No, no. Whether X has a degree and the years of attendance (if any) can be verified with one simple phone call to the Registrar's office. Those are not protected info. Clearly, that call wasn't made anywhere near early enough.

 

 

No registrar confirms a degree on a phone call.

Did his story include her source for her statement?

Rice played both sides. An amazimg job considering some wanted him out of there. His recruiting class saved his arse at UNLV. I file him in the same category as Masiello.

 

Maybe he fits better in Skip Holtz's category.

 

He also played both sides to get an undeserved extension

The same search firm that provided Mark Harlan, who has proven to be way in over his head, now can't even run a proper search for our basketball coach which is making us a laughingstock. Once again, USF proves to be Bush League in athletics!

Is Bush League code for 70s porn?

Jtrue, quite funny but I think you need to go to Urban dictionary to keep up with current trends lol

 

Bush League is "below good standards, pitiful, poor, terrible, awful"

 

That describes Mark Harlan, the search firm and the coaching search to a T. Add Judy into that also for her inept handling of Athletics!
