Edit: I have apparently fucked up on this… here’s what happened. A buddy of mine called me this morning and told me he heard on a local radio show that Beilein took NC State’s offer and that a formal announcement was coming tomorrow. I didn’t think twice about it. I just accepted it as true and posted it… I didn’t think my buddy was making anything up, and I still don’t… he heard what he heard, and I repeated it. I shouldn’t have. I wasn’t trying to “break” any news… you all know that’s not what I do here, and I don’t have any interest in that. At the time I posted it, I thought it already was news. I really didn’t think it was rumor or hearsay or anything like that… I thought it was just something that went down.  Anyway, it’s not true, as it turns out. I’m an idiot for posting it.

So… my apologies to John Beilein, and anyone who may have read this (particularly Allison; I don’t hate you, I swear)… I’m a jackass.  In fact, I’m adding this to the “Dickheads” category, referring to myself.
