Good question.

My source is a friend, whom I have known for decades. He has no dog in the hunt---and is not connected to the University of Cincinnati. He is a powerful guy in that town, though, and really wired in.

He does not care what UC does or does not do, from a fan's standpoint, although I suspect he wishes them well. He is a good guy; and he was merely surprised that somebody would bail after what he thought was a short time, especially after making those comments.

Brian Kelly said the same thing to UC, that he want to be there to oversee rise of Bearcat football and implored UC Board to plow money into the facilities and Nippert Stadium. Tough thing to do for a small school in a mid sized town where competition for ticket dollars is with the Bengals and Reds. But they did and Brian Kelly bolted a year later. Why would they be surprised by Jones leaving?

Your post is the second time I've read that Fulmer weighed in on Jones. Is there an article published on this or is that hearsay as well? Just asking. I am constantly amazed at the number of posters with seemingly inside information.
