Morris did not and does not relate to modern technology and social networks

He was on Facebook up until a day or two ago. He is friends with a friend, and posted in my friend's thread about the resignation. It was as ugly as you'd expect-and has since been deleted. He may have deleted his entire account.

Morris is an a-hole. I remember he wrote about how USC was "paving paradise to put up a parking lot" when the Farmer's Market was purchased, and Gamecock Park was in the works.

I have no reason to doubt the authenticity of the post above.

Morris hated Holtz too. I heard he once promised that he would do everything in his power to make sure Holtz was never inducted into the CFB HOF.

You know, the strange thing about Morris where Spurrier was concerned that when Spurrier first arrived he treated Ron as a friend. I remember being in the Colonial Center, underneath, talking with Michelle, when Spurrier came walking up right after he was hired and it was the first time he saw Ron and he was very very cordial to Ron remembering him from his days at Duke when Ron was covering Duke for the Raleigh paper.

Let's face it. You may try to defend Ron Morris but Ron is pretty much a pathetic, unhappy, individual as a beat writer. Or rather, ex beat writer. I liked him okay as a person but as a writer he was a troll and button pusher and he never vetted his sources ... he was all about his personal views and opinions and everyone else be damned.
