Gary Parrish <s>@</s>GaryParrishCBS <small class="time"> 3m3 minutes ago </small> I reported Wednesday that Newman had already settled on MSU. He denied that report. But, simply put, his denial was dishonest. …
And gary parrish chimes in, calling Malik a liar

I normally like Gary, but he is coming across as a petty asshat
Of course Malik would deny the report because he wanted to have a once in a lifetime special moment where he announced his decision. I've got no problem with Gary breaking the story early, that's what reporters do. But to come out and call Malik a liar seconds after he announces is extremely petty.

You want some REAL sour grapes
not just some "I'm upset at an athlete who got upset at me for stealing his thunder" whiny media type? You know, the most petulant, myopic fanbase in the league?
Well then do I have the spot for you this afternoon?
So many words for a kid they never really wanted.

Gary. You want to be known as the first to call it so bad, that you disparage the kid in doing so. Well I guess you accomplished being remembered, in the short term, for his commitment...remembered for being an *******.

I listen to Parrish every day and he absolutely can't stand being wrong in an argument. He will always say something that is a bit ambigous so he can claim he didn't actually say something. He has done it to me personally. He often thinks he is the "smartest one in the room". SO for him to do that is not out of character.
wednesday matt wyatt said all the other schools had cancelled their in home visits because he had decided. His source was a TSUN person.
Parrish was right, and Malik wasn't fooling anyone by saying he hadn't made up his mind.
Still, that tweet and the timing is sour grapes. I thought Parrish would be better than that.
That said, I really like Parrish's radio show, so I can give him a pass. I do feel bad for Courtney Cronin though. She worked for a year on making sure she had some exclusive rights to the story, but then it's all blown because Malik decides to be up front with the other staff's recruiting him (which is a respectable thing to do), and naturally, they tell others around them who tell others, who tell other media types, and the story she worked to have an exclusive right to is out 2 days before it's supposed to be out, and she can't do anything but try to keep the suspense alive, even though it was too late.

Parrish is such a dick. I hate all of his "columns." ANY comment or "compliment" he makes regarding State is at least laced with some backhanded insult. Most of the time it's out and out dislike. F him and his show and his writings.
Tuberville is denying any speculation that he's headed to Auburn. Said.."They’ll have to carry me out of here in a pine box."*****
