Has Ramar been dismissed?

[VolinArizona]

BTW, Pearl did not do a press release before the SEC-T when Crews and SMith were rumored to be ineligible.

[vols kick balls]

Marc Maggard says that the rumor is true. Of course I will never believe anything that he says ever.

[NEW COACH]

Who is Marc Maggard ?

[KCVolLaw]

I'd take Marc Maggard.........

[VolinArizona]

John Brice (for NEW COACH: writer at Volquest) said he spoke to numerous people at UT and there is nothing to the rumors.

Ramar's family will be in town for the banquet tomorrow.

haha...now why would you go and say something like that? I'm certainly no UT hater and think a lot of your coaches. I spent the past sunday with one of em in Dallas....

And I'm sorry about it...sucks to lose a player, but Smith won't be playing for UT next year. I hate it for Bruce and for the fans, cause it stinks.

ON a more positive note, I do think you guys will land Bobby Maze. He's a heck of a PG and should fit in well at UT.

Yes. Those two things are connected. You don't want to let it out that a kid is gone from the team the day before his banquet.

Give it a few days.....

I know that Ramar will be dismissed after his banquet. It's tomorrow....no need to do it now with his parents flying in for it an all. It's a sad thing...they are going to let him participate and then deal with the issue.

So what you're trying to tell me is that you know more than 3 local media guys who have more access than you?

What makes you think they have more access than me?

But yeah, that's what I'm telling you. What will you say in a week when you realize I'm telling you the truth and trying to give you some heads up on something important to your team.

This really doesn't make a lot of sense. Why bother flying his parents in and putting on a show if he and the coaches already know that he's being dismissed from the team?

Cause he was a part of this years team and they want to allow him to be a part of the banquet. They don't hate him or anything. He didn't punch an old lady or anything....just not going to be able to remain on the team.

Once the banquet is over, you'll get the story.

Without naming your source, just what sort of "access" do you purport to have? Anybody can spout off any ridiculous rumor without any sort of backing or evidence. I could start a rumor right now claiming that UK has fired Billy Gillespie for conduct unbecoming of a Kentucky basketball coach and they've offered Pearl $3 million a year to take the job and he's accepted it. And I would have just as much credibility as you have right now.

Not if it was true.....

I run a national recruiting service. Have for over a decade. I talk to coaches from NCAA staff all over the nation. I also deal with every AAU and HS coach connected to big programs.
