Does kill want a job like that?

I could see kill going full time independant consultant / speaker guy too.

Does this reporting seem backward to anyone else? How do you report that it's a "shame" that the U isn't doing something, and then "5 mins" later report that they are? JUST FIND OUT ALL THE FACTS FIRST! If you're going to be a "reporter", stop using twitter to disseminate the first thing that pops into your head.

That's some good ol' Doogie scoopin'!

Outrage is the priority.

I suppose it makes a difference that we dont have anything but an interim ad to make a hire like that.

 

[Spoofin]

If Doggie tweets something, but has no followers to read it, is it still wrong?

 

[highwayman]

Maybe Kill should take some time off instead of being plopped into another job. Health is priority. It will take months more if not years. Doogie can't see that either.

The Poor man's Sid Hartman

I would bet that if twitter had been around in Sid's earlier days that he also would have found himself in similar situations of just running with something without really thinking it through.

Sad the way journalism has changed from the desire to get it right to the desire to be first even if you are completely wrong.

You heard it here first: Kill may or may not take a job at Minnesota or some other school. He may or may not have been offered the jobs. For sure. Or not.

Pretty good summation of what the reporting on this particular story has turned into at this point.
