Guy sticks us in the @$$ every time we bend over to tie our shoes. The truth hurts though. The rumor I heard was that McMurphy had a "relationship" with someone either on or close to the team, and got the inside scoop, and exploited it. I don't know if that romance died or if he still has related connections, but it seems to me he was bent at being discovered and likes to poke (no pun intended) USF whenever we exposure our bottoms (so to speak). In my best Seinfeld accent, "Not that there's anything wrong with that". He obviously did. When Woolard left I thought it would end. But it didnt. His relationship was with student-athlete.

Leavitt got McMuph pretty good in that post game press conference by calling him out like that. Funny stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even after Leavitt was fired he continued to get scoops. Same after Woolard left. I just don't know what enemies he has left... Besides the fans who are the only constant.

It's his friends at USF that continue to feed him info that lead to concern. Just one of several very suspicious occurrences that ought to raise eyebrows. He can bash USF with impunity. And he's petty enough to continue it long after his relevance to the program has vanished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He still goes to the games when he has the chance. So he still has some love/hate deal with USF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should appear odd, that a fired local beat writer lands at AOL Fanhouse and manages to weave a tale that involves many conflicting and unnamed sources, outright lies by the alleged victim, his family and friends, that leads to the HCs firing (called on for by a number of stupid fans and boosters). After penning the pieces and telling unnamed source stories around the Bay Area, USF capitalizes on the craze then (much like the NFL domestic abuse craze today) and cashes out the HC. For years afterwards, BMM is treated as a friend of the program. He leads with all USF news. Some think it's a mole, others think it's more of an agreement I don't know the answer. But I find it amazing that of all the false stories he wrote about USF, they still would have him so close. But maybe that's the whole keep your friends close, and your enemies closer. Maybe he had greater dirt on Doug and Judy. Easier to cut Leavitt and have an agreement. I don't know. It truly would have been something to have an independent investigation into the matter.
