If you don't think Mack would purposefully be spreading disinformation, you dont know him very well.
He STILL hates the Internet and now it looks like he REALLY hates Ketch. You are now receiving the full wrath of this guy and all his powers. He is acting like he is consumed with making KEtch et al look like unconnected idiots.
Mack should realize he is fighting a losing battle. KEtch can call guys who own planes that hang out with mack at parties, go hunting with Mack, etc. Mack needs to focus on the things he can control and quit worrying about the internet.
My guess is he wants to hire 2 coordinators who don't know what the internet is, nor how to click a mouse, and have their admins print off their emails to read on their desk, besides the computer on their desk that they don't know how to turn on.

"Are you kidding me? You don't see why people at UT would want to spread wrong information?"
I dont really get the point of coming on this site and spreading Austin's not the guy...Mack is talking to other people etc when Austin's the guy. Why would you want the fans to question the hire when its made by spreading Mack was looking at other people?

i dont get your post. so what you're saying is that you do know him well enough to know his intentions? or are you like everyone else on this site who has NO idea?
Think about it for a minute though...if the SID wanted to make OB and other sites look bad, would they really have someone dispute that Austin was the guy, only to hire him later? That would make OB and everyone else that stuck by the story look better, not worse. So, I think that AC's information was legit - i.e. no offer has been made.
If they wanted people to question the source, this is probably what they thought of as the best way to do it. They didn't have much other choice if they wanted to try and mess with us. What else would they do? They already have people doubting that is Austin, look around.
Bellmont wants to delay the information about who was hired as DC until the posting has been up the supposedly requisite amount of time. But Austin was found to be the guy. OB has good sources, and the largest subscription base. Someone comes on here, says they are from Seattle, a place with ties to Austin and Jerry Gray, posts info from Coryell, etc. and attempts to place info out there that people believed. Look at Coryell's old threads.
Today's entire post isn't what I would be referring to, as I think the Akina/Applewhite stuff was true, that they were sticking, I am referring back to when AirCoryell disputed the Austin information, and further today put it out there. Too bad the next time AirCoryell tried to post some info to further try and throw OB posters off the scent, TexasSID forgot to log out.
I hear what you are saying. I'm thinking long term. If they are trying to damage the credibility of mods on this site (and others), then it does them no good to dispute the information that was put out, only for it to be proven to be correct. This just reinforces the credibility of the site.
On the other hand, from a short term perspective, then it makes sense as you suggest - i.e. creating a smokescreen until the hiring is announced.

I imagine ketch working this like a poker game, give me something to go with and I will leave your little f up alone.
D. Ketch is AirCoryell.
He posts info about the new DC hire that he knows to be correct and claims a press conference will soon follow. Of course UT claims the info is inaccurate and decides to hold off on the press conference. Ketch, knowing his credibility is on the line, creates a pseudonym by the name of AirCoryell.
He starts posting his supposed inside info stating there have been no offers given to anyone yet. He posts these little nuggets (sorry, crumpets) over the next few days and people start to give credence to what he is saying. Ketch then manufactures this controversy trying to tie AirCoryell to the Texas SID which in turn lends credibility AirCoryell's claim. That way when Texas finally holds a press conference naming Austin as the new DC then Ketch's original claim will have been proven correct thereby reaffirming him as the ultimate UT insider. One with sources so good that not even the Texas SID can thwart him.
I agree and to add we may be thinking about this from the opposite angle, multiple sites are being fed info that Austin is the guy and a Belmont Deepthroat posts on here that he is just a candidate.
I think the OP is legit and I have been saying all along that I think something big is about to happen.
UT Football feels like North Korea. Everything is secret and behind the scenes. Everyone in the athletic department is paranoid.
Ketch. Do other athletic programs operate this way? Or is it just the crisis level we are at right now?

Brick killed a guy!
Like everyone else, this has got to be the most fascinating thing ever. Shocking that someone would make that big of a mistake (not logging out as TexasSID) and I would love to know what was originally said.
The other thing I find interesting is that posters/fans think we somehow have a right to know very private negotiations and interviews. Do I want to know? Absolutely. Do I have the right to know? Not at all. IMO, any inside information we can get about anything is a privilege. But I think it's ridiculous that some posters are claiming they are going to be so mad if Mack has been misleading us or throwing smokescreens.
What I think some people fail to realize, is that the public release of private negotiations and ongoings with huge contracts can have a negative impact for UT.

WOW!
Remember how much we all ridicule posters who write "Open Letters" to Mack Brown, Greg Davis, etc.
If Bellmont was on Oranglebloods since 2002 I guess those open letters were actually read !?!?

This thread is making all of us act like midgets at a urinal -- staying up on our toes.
I wish Chip would report on the phone call Ketch made to this guy...

no i can read just fine. you stated that "If you don't think Mack would purposefully be spreading disinformation, you dont know him very well." that implies that you know him very well because you believe he is "purposefully spreading disinformation". and i am saying you have no idea what Mack is doing or what he is capable of doing.
My guess is, we will never find out who the TexasSID is, as Ketch will soon have a new, or maybe a better source as a result of this imbroglio.
My bet is that it is Bill Little, as information management is what he does.

AirCoryell, I've been meaning to talk to you about that. You should find yourself a safehouse or a relative close by. Lay low for a while, because you're probably wanted for interweb fraud.
what if aircoryell left computer, texassid sat down at same computer and logged in as himself, but left without logging out and aircoryell came back and didn't know that texassid was at his computer, so he didn't relog in himself?
this is really making my head hurt
