I guess Tommy Bowman as the WSJ is a credible source at 4:30pm yesterday. It was more than likely one of our member that chnaged it approximatly 4 hours after the news broke. But boy it sure did seem like you were trying to stir the conspiracy pot.

Are you calling me a liar or my ASU grad son can"t read? You can have your time zone/ edit time stuff.

Nope, no conspiracy here. I can't help what people read into it, but I guess the tone of some posters would lead to that. I think you're right about someone from App making the edit last night. Nothing wrong with that.

Either/or. Yes. Take your pick.JCline0429 wrote:[Are you calling me a liar or my ASU grad son can"t read? You can have your time zone/ edit time stuff.

Sorry dude, but the edit times/logs on Wikipedia can't be manipulated by users. What you see is what you get. If you take a look at the revision history only two edits were made yesterday on December 2nd: one changing the years coaches from 1989–present to 1989–2012. And another adding the text "He officially stepped down as head coach after the 2012 post-season loss to Illinois State 38-37."
No other edits were made until today, December 3rd.
