I think you made your point. Without a link to a reputable media outlet, you will not believe any "my friend told me" story. That's your prerogative and one you have made abundantly clear. It is also very obvious that not everything that goes on behind close doors is reported in reputable media outlets (nor should they be).

All that being said, while I take the OP's post with a grain of salt, I enjoy reading posts like this and, if properly caveated, have no problem with them. I think the OP was pretty open about the credibility of his source. He told you his relationship to the team and you can judge for yourself.

In short, let's all focus more on taking things in the context in which they arrive and less focused on demanding that the story be bylined Kirk "Miles to Michigan" Herbstreit in order to be deemed acceptable.

To the OP, thanks for sharing. My personal take is that Toliver was probably frustrated with JJ these past two seasons and it colors his perception of Mettenberger. If I'm right, I both think Toliver has a point and yet ought to have been more focused at making lemonade out of the JJ lemon and not let those limitations influence his play (i.e., drops).

Good night!
