I hope somebody’s explained the First Rule of Holes to Hutson Mason.

Chaser.
I don’t think “new low” means what ol’ Hutson thinks it means.
Molder of young men
I really don’t know what goes through some people’s brains sometimes.
Dude’s been fired, to no one’s surprise.
TFW you remember your momma raised you better

In a tweet she titled, “I’m so sorry,” Setas posted a message backtracking on her earlier statement.
“The tweet I posted earlier this evening was uncalled for and hurtful. I made a huge mistake and I apologize,” Setas tweeted. “In a moment of frustration, I let my anger get the best of me and acted before thinking. I sincerely regret my choice of reckless words. In no way did I intend to undermine the seriousness of the global pandemic and my heart goes out to those it has affected. The health and safety of others is first and foremost and I pray that we all can find peace soon. I am ashamed and embarrassed. I hope you can forgive me.”
Shockingly, she is no longer on Twitter.
I have to admit I’d pay good money to watch Clay Travis ask Nick Saban about her tweet.

No detail is too small for Kirbs.

Chaser.
Heh. My only question is whether Kirby scours Twitter himself or has a staffer do it for him.
Will no one think of the witty tweeters?
I feels ‘ya, Mayo Bowl.

It’s cute that they care.

The question was about whether transfers should be able to play immediately at their new school, a subject where Smart is aware that coaches are often on the minority side of public opinion.
“Do you want an honest answer on that?” Smart said. “I can give you the stock answer, which is indifferent. But as every coach in the SEC wouldn’t admit, it’s based on who they can get with how they want that rule.”
If it can benefit your team, in other words, you want transfers to be able to play right away. If it can benefit your opponent, you don’t want it. Got it.
“It’s a selfish world out there and every guy is trying to do what gives his team the best chance to win,” Smart said.
Chaser.
Barners, man.
There’s always a hot take when you need one.
And this one’s… something.
You know, there’s no rule that says once you type something moronic you have to click on “Tweet”.
The truth is out there.
“When you have the things that have been written about us in our program, myself and our future, very unfounded articles that state opinion as fact, that state unnamed sources as being factual, that’s very hard to defend against,” Herman said. “Because if I’m a competing recruiter, what do you do? You press print and you say, ‘Look, this is true, it must be true. It’s on so-and-so orangefans.com, right? It must be true.'”
“And you know that is the really, really hard part in recruiting because these 16-year-old kids are very impressionable.”
Man, if Tom Herman is thin-skinned enough that he’s whining about negative recruiting at Texas, there’s no way he could have survived as a head coach in the SEC.
Today, in I heard it on the Internet, so it must be true
Take it from somebody who’s been there a few times himself — before you embrace as gospel some social media story you find compelling, make sure it’s for real first.
