The rules that have been set out before, most recently by Jacobi:

Reliable sources for news on this include: The Big Ten conference and athletic departments.

Everyone else can go make up stories about unnamed sources saying Obama and Bush got drunk at a exotic dancer club or something.

But they are reporting that someone else reported that they talked to someone who knew a guy who said this way true.

How much more reliable can you get than that?

The way I see it...

The time line matched up perfectly for acceleration during the AAU/BCS meetings last week.

Nothing happened.

Things didn’t change in a week. They’re going to take their good sweet time with this because they can and because they should.

sources and credibility aside

my gut tells me it’s going to happen.

Maybe I should open a twitter account.

I did that to see what all the rage was.

I still don’t know what its used for except to steal RUTS’ stolen joke punchlines.

apparently it's helping sports "journalists"

break dubious stories. If it turns out true, they can say they broke it first. If it turns out as false, they can claim it was only through twitter. Best of both worlds.

Wait, hold on a minute

You took time to make a twitter account, but you’ve never seen a Star Wars movie? Not that the two are related in any way, but I mean come on. Star wars is referenced so many times in pop culture, you’re really missing out, trust me, and I’ve never wasted my time with a twitter account.

Just remember

Delany can spread rumors and by doing so force schools into making a move.

For example, if this rumor get some traction in the news, and they ask Delany who says “We are in the process of contacting those schools which we may or may not be interested in joining the Big Ten, I have no further comment”

So then schools like Texas get a little jumpy b/c they think “oh shoot, we goin to miss the bus on this this one, someone get me that Jim Delany on the phone!”

Then Jim says “well howdy Mr. UT president you know we’ve already extended 5 offers, but maybe we could shuffle a few things around if you agree to join RIGHT NOW JUST SIGN THE PAPER DO IT DO IT DO IT”

I believe these rumors are all part of Delany’s plan to get Texas.

Do you want the mustache on, or off?

Too bad.

If we're able to lure Texas

I am more than willing to forget that this idiotic and endlessly annoying mass sourceless rumor milling and endless, unsupported speculation ever happened.

I highly doubt these rumors are from the Big Ten.

This is from the David Jones Memorial Hall of Made Up Sources. If it was legit, there’d be smoke.
