Why all this hostility? I did not start the rumor. I did not start the thread. Initially, lots of folks on here (not just me) were wondering if this had any effect on the regular season success. It has since been explained that the problem, if there were one, would be a violation of an SEC rule regarding progress towards a degree and that, by rule, the sanction is losing post-season eligibility. Thus, there would be no effect on the regular season, even if it were true. No controversy over your wins, no asterisk on your SEC championship. Nothing.
And since then, we've heard from a reliable member of the VN community that he has it, albeit indirectly, from the horse's mouth that its not true, anyway. I realize that folks will be a little antsy about it until the post-season begins. I can understand that. But there's nothing you can do about it and the only even semi-official word we have is that it is not true.
Your team is going to embarrass us tonight in our own house as you celebrate your first SEC basketball title in eons (maybe ever?). Isn't that enough?
