    This is from the account that I use to get Doogman bullshit for free. I've never even met this guy like 50 people I know use it. Anyways here is an email he got from Kim after the Arizona loss.

    i know people are pissed. I know that some are demanding change. Tyrone has never fired or let a coach go. Ever. If he's given a mandate to do so, what will he do?
    There's a ground swell right now. If they beat Stanford, it'll be interesting to see the reaction.

    realistically, do you think that TY might be gone after this year? Or does something really bad have to happen in the last few weeks? Thanks in advance.

    There are so many rumors out there right now it's funny.

    Honestly, with everything we know, it sure seems like Emmert is the ony guy who really knows and he's not saying anything, even to the boosters. There hasn't been any leaks.

    Should be an interesting few days

    I know you are getting flooded with messages about all that is transpiring but when dawgman said he couldn’t get anybody to go on record...was he saying they all said ty was gone or were there different stories being told by the donors?

    Thanks

    "What happened in those next three days is legendary. And why I continue to lay 100% of the blame of the one person who could have fixed it if he had the GUTS. "

    So what changed in those three days? I didn't know we were that close from being spared 0-12 damnation. Unbelievable. How could it go from being a sure thing to retaining that piece of filth Willingham? What possible consequences could there have been? Was it just the NAACP and all that bullshit?

    Yes, the next three days saw Tyrone kept on and Turner fired. There was the threats by the "ubers" (Hi AAAndy!) to withhold donations. There was one promise to make a 100k donation to the law school if Ty was canned. The dots connected lead to Turner did an end run to keep Ty and Emmert pussed out for fear of a racial issue.

    Yes, all in DJ's (ILTCHDJ) book. Also the emails to Emmert were made public.

    Sounded like Kim thought it would be interesting. I think it's interesting that it ended up to be interesting.

    this whole mess falls entirely on Emmert's shoulders.


    And "white guilt," which is how the book ends.

    I don't see how anyone can defend Emmert. I guess if you just refuse to listen to facts like TequilaFS does then that happens.

    He had a chance to save us from 0-12 but like a coward who had one foot out the door he chose to be gutless in sticking with an 11-25 coach.
