When I said I caught grief I didn't mean by Jirsa supporters. I meant that people called me out saying I was spreading rumors. Five days later the news came out and not one of those people felt the need to say they were sorry for saying the things they said to me.
Were these posts on this board or another board?
About a month ago I put some info on here and had a few of the so-called "insiders" make some disparaging remarks and I decided at that time not to put anymore info out. I then said to myself, "why not? These are all good Marshall fans and if I hear or know something I think they deserve to know it". What I find terribly funny is that the "insiders" on this board are right about 20% of the time and always have some reason as to why the situation changed. I haven't been wrong yet and that doesn't seem to sit too well with some posters.
I'm not sure whether anyone considers me an "insider" - I certainly don't - so I'm not sure if this is directed at me or others. However, I can explain what I asked and why I asked it, in the respectful tone that I generally try to take.
'94 had stated s/he had been "right" on several predictions, including Jirsa and Snyder. I went back to look at these posts - but '94's history dates back to Sept. 2007. I asked if '94 posted under a different alias - but by that point, the thread had deteriorated and been moved / deleted by the mods. I'm not sure if '94 ever read my post.
'94: if my post was somehow misconstrued as disparaging your original post in that thread - you have my apology. That was not the intent of my response.
Whether Snyder is staying or going after this season - I have no reason to believe strongly one way or another. If I had to guess, based on the little bit I know about the parties and personalities involved, I would be surprised if Snyder is let go at season's end - but not entirely shocked.
And, if I may venture a guess as the coaching prospect you ['94] mentioned in a later post -- Mark Whipple would fit most of the description. As mentioned by GB, Laycock is possible / interesting -- he was interested when Donnan left for UGa.
