Twitter / Josh Ward: WR Markeith Ambles snow-delayed for UT visit
I had pretty much figured that Ambles was off the board for UT, but hey, if he's trying to visit . . . .

Color me cynical...
but I think this could be some bastard rumor spread by Kiffin and his band of Ministers of Disinformation.
But I would love it if it’s true!

Except that the snow looks to be a problem
I wouldn’t be surprised if seeing snow really helped with some deep south prospects who’ve never seen it before. But you have to get ’em there first, and it seems that Robinson has been forced to cancel his visit and Ambles is stuck at the airport (with, to my knowledge, all the flights canceled).

Hey, Peyton Manning's on-campus visit was during the ice storm of '94
That’s the pitch, right? “You and Peyton, Markeith! You and Peyton!”

So Ambles is stuck in Charlotte for the night. Hopefully he makes it in tomorrow.
Sounds promising that he’s making all this effort.

Why wouldn't he?
If I could get snowed in with a couple UT hostesses, I’d make the trip!
What you're seeing is team spirit. It's like the Holy Spirit, but more powerful.

There's slush at my parents' house in south knox, but nothing more
As usual, the fear outweighs the end result. But I have no idea what it’s doing to airline travel elsewhere

Wow. My parents have six inches and counting
They’re in Johnson City though. And in Boston, we have green grass and wind chill below 0.

6 inches and you would have thought they had 6 feet.
the way people carry on down there

Chattanooga got bombed yesterday
Took me 2 hours to make the 20 minute trip home.
People lose their minds when they see snow flakes around here.

Ambles' twitter confirms that he's riding to Knoxville
It also confirms that he has no grasp of the English language. I probably shouldn’t ever look at the twitters of most college athletes. It’s depressing.

Who all was scheduled to make trips this weekend, along with Ambles?

Clark, Crump, Probst, and Sapp are there
Rumor is that Ambles, Rogers, and Nance will be driving up today and staying through the b-ball game. Possibility of Glass and Stone, but I’m not sure.

Um, yeah
The rest of his page is also unnerving.

I'd love to get the guy's playing ability
But we don’t need somebody who is going to do something stupid. I get the feeling that Dooley will be a good judge/developer of character, but, as you said, it’s still a little unnerving. At this point, I’d rather have Rogers (although getting both is obviously the goal here). Also some friggin’ DTs. That’s the position that’ll sink us if we’re not careful.

The more of this stuff I read
The more at peace I am with the Kiffin Chimera being gone. Btw, has the “chimera” part of that ever rang more true?
It seems we were all so excited to be the focus of attention and the ones talking back to the rivals a la Spurrier for a change that we didn’t notice the questionable personalities we might be getting.
Losing Ambles to another school would be no big deal to me. I would MUCH rather have Da’Rick.

Not sure I want to know
But his tweets aren’t all that encouraging……
