I think the VCU guys are pretty funny. Might as well have some fun with it.

The fake Twitter/message board accounts are fun. If only we'd thought of that when Buzz was going to Oklahoma and Illinois and Texas A&M and SMU and ....

Beyond that, he would not be at a baggage claim.  Marquette has their own own jet.  Sheesh.

Plus, Shaka would be smart enough to pack light for an overnighter so he wouldn't have to check bags.

I'm not sure how it works...If it's Strong's plane, I'd imagine a relatively smaller plane, it might be flying out of another airport.  I don't know if those flights are tracked or not.

Nothing coming into Timmerman either.    This aint happening we been lied too!!!

Actually a really good celebrity news source

I guess if that sh1t's important to you...

[MUHoopsFan2]

Why go away? Unfortunately, he may be right. I don't know if he'll go to Madison but I wouldn't be surprised to see Shaka at a big-time program in the ACC, Big 12, or Big 10 in the next 5-6 years if he has success here. I'll be ecstatic if this is all true and we can land him, but that possibility certainly exists.

But you'll probably tell me to go away too since I'm a "one star" and don't troll this site everyday.

You hire Shaka Smart now and he just might leave in 5-6 great years and then you bring in Brian Wardle...it's that simple.

That is the vision. Roll with and go with the flow...

Sadly yes.  Im kinda a chick when it comes to celebrity news.   One of my many guilty pleasures.

Any flight that files is tracked

To the public?

The VCU message boards are really having fun with this right now. They are acting like it's all a big joke. They are either going to be blindsided or we are gonna eat a crap sandwich.

I hope they're right, and he stays.

But even on Twitter, VCU fans almost to a person tweeting "he would never do that to us.  shaka is different."  He will have crushed them if he leaves for MU.  And they don't see MU as a job worth leaving for

Just heard Shaka got a speeding ticket on W 94 by the Mars Cheese Castle.

Yes

The Paris Hilton, Kardashian thing never hit my radar scope

[MUHoopsFan2]

Did we jump the Shaka on this one?  Fortunately, I only texted family that he was all wrapped up.  Chances this falls through or never was?  Anxiety attack.

You are being melodramatic...."all wrapped up" where!?

VCU or Marquette? Be specific.

[ZiggysFryBoy]

MH780 would disagree with you.

They pull over the out of state plates every time.

Not according to your browser history.  How many times can one person watch those two "on the job?"

If Smart is coming to Marquette, thank god there's no Malaysian flight service between Richmord and Milwaukee.

So, how is Kimye's wedding planning coming along?

Did you mean to say manly!?!

I'm at the point where I don't care if he comes or not because these threads have been entertainment gold...MARQUETTE GOLD!

[NavinRJohnson]

If it is happening, and its done, I don't think MU would hesitate for a second to drop it promptly at 5PM...right when Brett has his presser at VT.

[Skitch]

Shaka just spotted at the Brat Stop eating cheese fries

Any plane that files a flight plan with the FAA - no matter how small or large - can be seen online... unless they get a waiver from the FAA.

I'm pretty certain that a jet going on an interstate flight is going to file a flight plan regardless.  I may be wrong, but flying without a FP is something that small planes taking off and landing at the same airport do (lessons, scenic flights, etc.).

It takes all but 10 seconds to look up the flights between two airports... it takes more time to look at an 18 year old recruit's twitter account, and that's a lot creepier than checking to see if there's a flight scheduled.

That is not somethign TMZ usually covers.  Usually cover breaking news.
