Zeed Haynes now in the portal

[Toga]

Wait a minute. Zeed has left the team? Does anyone have thoughts on this?

 

[orangefog]

Always gotta get the last word in.

 

[wfschrec]

I am trying to give it a rest. I keep saying let's move on. I hope he gets picked up by someone soon regardless of what advice he may or may not have been given and what has or has not been said about what happened. Let's agree to disagree and move on. Oof.

For someone who claims to he a PR wiz you sure can’t read a room. Stop regurgitating the same nonsense then saying drop it … you’re wrong you’ve been wrong just stop.

One of my fav from Bugs.
Countless times I used this line on my kids when they were growing up!

The passive aggressive is strong in that one.

Can everybody just stop at this point?

To JeffCuse - the responses based on speculation needed to end like 3 days ago.

To everybody else - it’s July, what the hell is this forum but speculation from people not in the know and coy responses from people in the know? He didn’t do anything that wasn’t done 1000 other times on this forum with half the consternation. God only knows why this one resulted in 100 replies.

Everybody apologize to everybody else.

People in the know are coy because when they are blunt and put the info out there they get blasted and told they are wrong.

Point in case, Calvin Russell thread

I raised the white flag. I'm done. At this point I'm posting silly graphics to try to defuse the tension. We got football season coming up folks.

That’s not the point. The point is, that’s the fun of fan forums. Speculating and receiving crumbs of information. It’s why we’re all here: the dopamine hit we get when we see updates.

We tracked flights for like a week for god’s sake!

Speculating about someone's personal issues though should be off topic. Speculate about anything else that you want.

The reason that this one is such a powder keg is a certain poster thought that they were entitled to know what was going on and the school should address it so there's not an "information vacuum". Rather than giving the player privacy and the ability to work out their personal issues.

Nice mediation! Thanks Dad lol

Look, I'm going to take a shot at moderating myself here and see if I can try to avoid getting killed.

It is literally a common sensical fact that in order to prevent stories and narratives from getting out of control you need to dictate the story. That usually involves providing a small piece of fact and surrounding it by a whole mess of nondescript garbage. Syracuse University has a track record, for whatever reason, of doing this really badly when athletes disappear.

But here's the thing. I don't care that the University hasnt released any more. I dont care that Zeed hasnt said more. Let the kid have his privacy and his future. But I just find it hilarious that no one else can agree that, in isolation, empty spaces tend to get filled with what people want to believe. From a purely philosophical standpoint. Doesn't mean there's a way to avoid it. But its a fact. Yet merely making that statement of human behavior infuriates people even though, pragmatically, I do understand that in this case there really want anything more to say and this was inevitable.

The TLDR version, I'm playing along at this point.

I never thought I was entitled to know anything. Who am I? I'm just Joe jerkoff over here.

I agree that’s what would exist in an idealized world. However, the reason people—myself included—check this thread is for updates about what’s happening.

We can all take umbrage with the reality show part of this sport, but it’s not going anywhere. Now, that will be my position in this. You can all take it to my DMs. I’m not going to make this thread any longer than it needs to be.

Yeah I was just stating why insiders are coy rather than straightforward
