A few further thoughts. First, I'd be surprised if money exchanged hands over this information. As an opposing coach, you'd have to think that this stuff may well be disinformation. You might accept the intel, keep its content in the back of your mind and evaluate its authenticity as the game goes on. But no way would you pay for it. Especially considering you're not talking about the Michigan/tOSU game - you're talking about a sub .500 ACC team. Why put yourself further out on a limb if you're an opposing coach? So I have to believe the motive was pure retribution, not pecuniary.
Apparently, the investigation has produced phone records and maybe more? How the eff stupid are you if you're Elrod. If you're going to commit treason, you gotta know the rest of your career is toast if you're ever discovered. So don't leave an electronic or paper trail. Which means don't use your work phone or email account. Reminds me of when I ask friends who are cops why idiot criminals do such stupid things in failing to cover up what they've done. And their response is usually to say don't put your standards on what most criminals do because most of them are stupid, and that's why some of the smart ones don't get caught.
Lastly, why publicize this information if you're Wake? It's just a yuge black eye that can also be used for negative recruiting. Why not instead quietly fire Elrod, confront him with what you have and tell him if he doesn't get his ass out of Winston-Salem in the next month and comply with your other requests, that the info will be made public which will prevent him from any future employment in the industry.
This is the part that leads me to believe the story isn't anywhere close to over with. No way we make this big of a deal about it if it's essentially much ado about nothing. Guessing there's a lot more that will be unveiled in the coming weeks.
