scheduling this exhibition game, as it distracts the media's attention away from today's news about a possible FBI investigation into KU.

In other words, Self/KU are using us like pawns to their advantage.

Please explain why this message is being reported.

Sam Mellinger & others are calling Self a "PR magician" for - JoplinTiger07 MU - 10/12 15:25:28

The FBI should know their way around ku(nm) - Barnburner KC - 10/12 19:08:12

you think?(nm) - tmcats KSU - 10/12 16:17:31

And we will use them like - Your Daddy MU - 10/12 15:52:16

The FBI story is a single news cycle story and it's been - tgr MU

- 10/12 15:37:10

The story did not even get one-tenth of a news cycle before - JoplinTiger07 MU - 10/12 15:43:34

It didn't get 1/10th of the news cycle before people - kmawv8 MU - 10/12 15:44:29

You think it's a coincidence that KU suddenly decides to - JoplinTiger07 MU - 10/12 15:45:52

You think this game was thought up in a day? - Mizzmi27 MU - 10/12 15:51:47

To be fair that's what happened with MU's NCAA investigation - FIJItiger MU

- 10/12 15:53:15

The talks to play the game originated today, yes. NM - JoplinTiger07 MU - 10/12 15:53:12

LMAO. They got NCAA approval, got MU to agree to it, got - tgr MU

- 10/12 15:56:37

You're misinformed. They haven't gotten NCAA approval for it - JoplinTiger07 MU - 10/12 15:58:25

According to the KSHB article, it's going to be announced - tgr MU

- 10/12 16:00:57

Keep making assumptions based on absolutely nothing. NM - JoplinTiger07 MU - 10/12 16:05:33

lol, that's rich. - kmawv8 MU - 10/12 16:06:46

Yeah, like writers at the KC Star.... - JoplinTiger07 MU - 10/12 16:09:50

How much you want to bet there are still plenty of questions - StaleyTiger MU - 10/12 16:14:10

I don't follow the point you're trying to make in those last - JoplinTiger07 MU - 10/12 16:17:24

a ku writer at the KC Star. - kmawv8 MU - 10/12 16:13:46

a KC Star writer's opinion seems more valid than yours... - JoplinTiger07 MU - 10/12 16:16:29

a ku mouthpiece's opinion on the ku coach - kmawv8 MU - 10/12 16:18:52

It's not a pro-KU narrative though. It's claiming that KU - JoplinTiger07 MU - 10/12 19:03:17

You don't have any clue what's happened. - Mizzmi27 MU - 10/12 15:59:53

we don't have much time left before the season - kmawv8 MU - 10/12 15:48:12

If only Louisville had scheduled an exhibition they'd still - Mizzmi27 MU - 10/12 15:39:19

There was actual evidence in UL's case. It's unknown if - JoplinTiger07 MU - 10/12 15:44:33

The "story" today only confirmed that ku was being looked - kmawv8 MU - 10/12 15:51:22

Exactly, so why are you acting like it's a huge story?(nm) - Mizzmi27 MU - 10/12 15:49:40

Here's the story that the media was reporting.... - JoplinTiger07 MU - 10/12 15:56:07

We all know the story. - kmawv8 MU - 10/12 15:59:49

It doesn't matter whether the speculation is legit or not... - JoplinTiger07 MU - 10/12 16:03:29

That story came out this morning - kmawv8 MU - 10/12 16:04:59

How long do you think it takes to start talks about playing - JoplinTiger07 MU - 10/12 16:08:51

Except from what I've seen all the leaks are - kmawv8 MU - 10/12 15:36:59

Whats the end game there? They get what? Maybe 2 weeks - LimerNick MU - 10/12 15:29:34

The PR damage is the worst when the story first breaks.... - JoplinTiger07 MU - 10/12 15:33:37

Thank you for the supporting evidence (nm) - FIJItiger MU

- 10/12 16:01:28

No story has broke today - kmawv8 MU - 10/12 15:38:45

That's not true. There are rumors that the FBI has documents - JoplinTiger07 MU - 10/12 15:50:23

I think you are overestimating the "story" that has "broken" - LimerNick MU - 10/12 15:36:52

You have blown this entire thing way out of proportion.(nm) - Mizzmi27 MU - 10/12 15:35:53

I WILL PAY HIM TO SAY THIS!(nm) - AllThingsKC KC - 10/12 16:00:23

HAHA, that would be awesome. NM - JoplinTiger07 MU - 10/12 15:59:38

That would actually be hilarious(nm) - LimerNick MU - 10/12 15:37:33

lol, true! - JoplinTiger07 MU - 10/12 16:02:16

That depends on if there's sufficient evidence to bust them. - JoplinTiger07 MU - 10/12 15:34:29
