The use of "prove my sources/speculation is wrong" as a common response to those questioning the speculation.

Lets be honest, unless we are willing to wait until it's reported in the paper or emailed from MU, sources and reliable speculation is the only thing we have.  If you want to attack what someone's information is, that is one thing but too many people attack "sources" and tell them to shut up because they couldn't possibly have sources.  That forces the people with the information to get defensive and then we get what you are complaining about.

Milwaukee isn't that big and there is a relatively large group of people that work for Marquette.  I'm willing to bet a vast majority of people that live in Milwaukee that are on this board have some sort of connection that gets them some sort of dirt.  What's the point of coming to the board, especially in the summer, if you are just going to attack this info?

Isn't speculation, hypothesis, conjecture and out-of-box dreaming part ot the fun of MUScoop.  I don't think anyone should be using it as an investment source.

Interesting that those who are the best at manufacturing facts from rumor haven't posted yet on this thread.
