Would you like to dispute any of the facts I cited, or do you think it's just an irrelevant coincidence that we decided to give ourselves a nickname based on an obscure slave term that almost no one had ever heard at the exact same time that multiple schools across the country were giving themselves nicknames following a convention that, if followed by us, would have resulted in the exact same nickname we had just decided to give ourselves based on an obscure slave term that almost no one had ever heard of.

Be careful in your answer. It will be important to our determination of your liar/moron classification.

Well, that much is true...

It's almost like I can see right through you

Yancy's update on the matter:

I'm in Mexico on vacation with my wife and I get a text yesterday morning saying South Panola had hired Lee Wooldridge, aka Coach 34.

Obviously, I didn't give much thought to the text and just replied back that I didn't think the rumor was true. A few minutes later someone within the South Panola program text me and said the same thing.

I proceeded by texting South Panola head coach, Lance Pogue, who I consider a good friend of mine through the years. He replied back that it was true.

I replied back, "thanks", and put up the post that he had been hired. That was it. I was off to the pool here at our resort.

I came back to the room and missed a couple calls from Lance. I returned his call and he told me that he had been getting blasted since the news broke.

I simply reported what he wanted me to report. I didn't try and talk Pogue out of hiring him, as Lee Wooldridge is now claiming. To be honest, I should have. This is a guy who called my wife a whore one time on his message board. The people who knew my wife in the industry (medical supplies) actually came to her defense on his board and said she is anything but. Lee was in the industry himself and somehow my wife got brought into a conversation on his board.

This is a guy who has put up more lies on his site to purposely hurt anyone associated with Ole Miss through the years than you can count. He makes Steve Robertson look like a saint.

But I told my wife and Chuck that I was going to be the bigger man and stay out of it and let Lance handle the situation the best he saw fit.

Later that night I was at dinner and I got another call from Lance. He said that it simply didn't work out because Lee was going to be too big of a distraction for his program.

I never told Lance he was making the right decision or gave him my opinion of Coach 34. I just asked him how he wanted me to report it.

Now we have Lee, aka Coach 34, wanting to blame me for all of this. Lee, my man, there is no one to blame but yourself.

You have acted irresponsible on the message boards for years now. It caught up with you. And no, I had zero impact in Lance's decision. He made that all on his on. But I can assure you I would not feel the least bit bad if I would have tried to influence Lance's decision.

You made your bed. Now you have to lie in it.

Having said all of that; I hope you change your ways and reach your goals of getting into coaching again. We all make mistakes.

Yes. Ole Miss has more black students than State. Both as a percentage and as a total number.

Really? Do you have a link for that?

I think Ole Miss is something like 14-17% African American and MSU is around 19-21% African American.

I need some way to tell if my neighborhood is gentrifying.
