So called "sources"
Feb 1, 2018, 12:03 PM

These "anonymous inside sources" crack me up! Every time any sports' signing day is near, the "sources that dare not be named" come flying out the woodwork. I had a guy at my job tell me a week before the zion announcement this wonderfully accurate insider info(ill quote him word for word) - " now dont tell anyone, you cant tell anybody! Ok? I know somebody thatis in tight with someone high up in clemson admissions. And they are as we speak having a ground floor dorm/living space prepared for a 5 star basketball player from spartanburg day. And is to be given1st priority to accomidations with no stair travel. And this is to be done in absolute secrecy." he went on to say "zion is signing with clemson! Mark it down! U heard it here 1st!!" what a crock! So faceless, nameless, sources have no value with me. In one ear, out the other.

Englishes mo better than that, but I'm with you - not biblically of course.
People are anxious about their team, good and bad information makes them understandably excited or might help soften what some consider an inevitable blow.
We're not going to change them, so I mock them instead. It's the game within the game and I'm a bad person for it.

This phenomena is oft referred to as the "York Effect" where

100% reliable sources end up being 110% wrong. Those rumor-mongers after being outed and having felt the full wrath of the York Effect, usually end up disappearing never to be heard from again.

One of my co-workers is a delusional leghumper

He told me Monday morning that him and a friend was at Spot on the Alley in Seneca this past weekend. They were having a few beers, and apparantly his so called friend is an "insider" at Clemson (never would tell me his name). He said this guy is real close with the Clements and Swinney family. He told me that guy said "Dabo has two more years at Clemson. Kathleen isnt happy here, and shes ready to get back to Alabama." Then he went on to say Saban is gonna be gone in two years and thats when Dabo is leaving and taking the HC position at Bama.
I'm not making this stuff up, dont know where he hears all of this crazy nonsense, and plus I should have stopped him when he said they were having a few beers at the Spot.

This guy also said that TL flipped a coin to see where he was gonna be playing college football. The bad part is this guy works at a freaking nuclear station!

Take it for what it's worth but my highly reliable inside honest to goodness source told me Ross will be going to Alabama, Clemson, Auburn or to some other unnamed school. Furthermore, feel free to use my name as the "pass-through" source.
