That sounds better.
These Wichita fans are mad:

Okay everyone, Will and Kate are here, so let's get out the paparazzi and the reporters.

They were probably expecting a lot more worshiping to happen, and instead, they are getting smacked with a bunch of people saying "I'm not so sure he is going." Meanwhile, they have to come HERE to even pitch the offer. He didn't jump up and sprint down there to hear the offer and immediately accept. Very out of touch.
I bet he said they'd have to come here because he is really busy with a coach's show with a dial up phone and a computer running Windows 95 that he has to be at tonight.

Friend of mine has been reading one of their boards, says there is talk of blocking Battle in at the airport

According to Jeff Goodman, the flight is expected to land at 11:15 CT
I wish I knew what airport they'd be flying in to. I'd go down there and check out the plane. There are several small airports in the area that are a short drive away. ICT is a nightmare right now with the construction of the new terminal. Tons of options. People in my office are already uneasy. I may not have any friends left in Wichita at the end of the day. Imma gump hard out here.

Someone posted this. No idea if it's them, but Twitter sources are right part of the time:

Good thing our Coach's Show uses Windows XP.

UA plane isn't tracked. Why would he fly out of Birmingham? And the plane already landed and that says it's landing at 11:39

lol at them being mad. How do they think Charleston felt when he left them for the Shockers. It's business.

Nobody wants to believe their school is a stepping stone. Nobody wants to see things that are going so well come to an end.
There were Bama fans who thought it was no big deal that Fran got on the plane for A&M. "He's just doing this to get our attention."

I love the Tide, but Marshall would be crazy to come to Alabama over Texas.
Why would Marshall be crazy to come to Alabama? Alabama and Texas are "football schools" first; however, I hate that moniker because Alabama is now dedicated to excellence in all sports. What's the difference between Texas and Alabama? Recruiting Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio? The great thing about basketball is that the game is international, so there are six continents to recruit for talent, Antartica excluded, unless he wants penguins and then we'll need a mackerel budget then. Alabama's Athletic Department can compete with Texas and give Marshall all the tools he needs to be successful. So let's be positive, and channel our inner-Gumpness that we land Coach G. "Money" Marshall from that old Midwestern town of Wichita :-).
I think the one advantage we can offer is complete control, UT is notorious for letting boosters have too much power and influence. They want to control the program. Saban can vouch, we really will turn over complete control.

If we land Marshall, I may cry tears of joy.
And a good chance we all get banned from Gumping out the SECr with as much shite that has been spewed there.

This is the kind of sweet, sweet melt, that puts a shite eating grin on my face, and makes me think positive thoughts.

i'm thinking that during the Month of March, Wichita women take one in the stink more than at any other campus. I mean, Shocler pride and all, right?
