Pete is a pro so him putting this out is the most credible evidence it's Minchey that I've seen. He knows what he's doing.


The way that video was cut though, how do we know it wasn't Blake Hebert who threw the ball Burress caught?

Freaking dislike that phrase, "Iron sharpens Iron". Such an SEC blurb from the early 2000s..
That might be what you associate it with but that saying has been around a lot longer than the aughts, like centuries.

Im not crediting whoever captured the clip, Im noting the context/timing of Pete putting this out (whom I trust). I dont think he does this without knowing which way the wind is blowing.
Oh that I agree with u. Definitely a “i’m not say, but…” post

Merk didn't delete his profile. Guy wanted to stop being followed everywhere so he had us delete a bunch of former posts that would trace back to him. That was in the works days ago.

He's still around but didn't want to be brought up constantly.
That’s fucking stupid. Why would mods help a poster delete posts he made and hide his identity. That just more proof he’s bullshit.

Totally reasonable given how awful he was being treated here.
How was he being treated awful. You guys act like he is a god and above reproach when not one thing he ever posted could be corroborated as anything more than opinion. When any one would even push back a little he got all up in arms about it.

I will say that if the coaches are using the uncertainty of the QB as smoke to confuse Miami’s defensive plan, it would be a brilliant idea. The fact that you would have to prepare for a running quarterback in your defensive planning, takes away a lot of prep against a more pocket passing quarterback. If nothing else this has to help against limiting their prep time game one

I mean doxxing him is wild though.
He was definitely NOT mistreated here. The VAST VAST majority appreciated his insight. Heck, he was given his own thread and whenever he made an appearance the questions started flying because it was apparent that he had some connections to the program that very few of us have.

I appreciated all the insight that he provided. I do think he is legit.

With that said, it was totally weird his overreaction to any pushback.

Doxing him is crazy.

Only if we actually have a well-established QB1 and everyone internally knows it and that person is getting all the reps. Great teams don't screw around trying to fake out their opponents with cloak-and-dagger personnel shit, they just put their best guys on the field and impose their will.

I mean how hard could it have been to ID Merck. He’s the guy riding through campus on a 12 speed road bike with spandex and a pointy helmet FFS

People aren't talking about Merck deleting his account enough lol

Did he get busted?
The guy provided a ton of good info. You realize that just because he has inside info it doesn’t mean what he conveys can’t change?

Some of You act like teenage boys after the hot girl that just transferred in to your school, then get upset when she tells you she has a boyfriend.

Babe Ruth didn’t bat 1.000

Some of you act like little girls following the Beatles with that guy. Nothing he said ever was anything special. He never gave any insight that the beat hadn’t said many times before.

Agree. How do you fool anyone when there is almost no film on either and what there is was during mop up time.

Looks like I hit a sore spot.

If what he provided was nothing special, then why jump on the guy because he might be wrong about Carr?
