The Courtship of Charlie Strong, via Twitter!

Twitter is great for breaking and unfiltered news, which of course, means sometimes, news that turns out to be WRONG! That's especially the case with these football coach searches, where scores of sports reporters try to out scoop each other and show how much more "connected" they are than others. Add in the fans, who via twitter can also report their "scoops" and we have an internet free for all!

Case in point, the University of Tennessee Athletic Director Dave Hart's courtship of Louisville football coach Charlie Strong!  We begin out saga after ESPN's Jon Gruden turned Tennessee down, and they were supposedly down to Oklahoma State's Mike Gundy and Louisville's Charlie Strong.  Gundy had already flirted with Arkansas, and then with Tennessee, probably getting a nice raise for his troubles from his employer, Oklahoma State!



Then, it was time to "follow the planes"....



 Then the "scoop" that Strong is GONE to Tennessee!


 The the "Scoop" that Strong is STAYING at Louisville!
 Then the "Scoops" that we don't know...etc....



 THIS one made sense....
 Then the TRUTH...
 Then  the TAUNTING from Memphis....

Then the speculation starts ALL OVER:  Bobby Petrino, Larry Fedora, or Who.....????
