No, I’m sorry but you are giving that dolt way too much credit. He has no connections inside the program. He’s simply looking at Cupp and Wilson transferring from A&M, some db whose name I can’t even recall transferring from Texas, Spencer signing with Tech after being processed by Texas, plus whatever Hudson is doing now, and trying to formulate some larger narrative.
That schmendrick castigated his own followers this spring for giving credence to the notion that BMDs have a say in determining whether coaches are retained or let go. He went on to state that Tech didn’t really need BMDs and their meddlesome ways at all…the AD could get by on small donations alone. “You don’t want to become Texas” he said, describing it as the most inept athletic department in the nation..
Same guy told everyone on the internet that Chris Beard would never leave Tech for his alma mater because he “bleeds Lubbock” and Austin wouldn’t suit him (probably right on that bit)…less than a week later, the McDonald’s meeting took place. Not to belabor the point, but this year he also claimed that Mark Adams, the guy who hadn’t sniffed a D1 head coaching job since the 90s, was an “elite culture-builder” and “one of the greatest bball minds in the entire sport.” He called Gavin Kash’s final AB vs Texas this year “as close to an actual life-or-death situation as humanly possible.” I couldn’t make this shit up if I tried.
So, while the message may resonate with what has been reported here, nobody on the inside is talking to that dude about messaging or anything else. Most Tech fans despise him. He’s a fat fucking moron who makes Ketch look like a totally photogenic, respectable journalist.
