Seemed like word was already spreading like wildfire before he confirmed, but who else could the leak have been?
Yeah, leak the story, then say you only published after it was "out there". The first syllable of his last name does rhyme with something. . .
lol, ouch
To be fair, though, it looks like there's others leaking stuff through other sources
This is who broke it Alby Oxenreiter

Also "The Ox on Fox" for those of us in the Pittsburgh TV market. No, I was talking about the stuff leaking about Harrison and Dungy and others. It can't all be coming from Bouchette...can it?

No, all that can come from anyone. They cut the final 15 to 10. So, 5 were eliminated and then they are presented a ballot with 10 sames. They then put the top 5 vote getters on another new ballot.
All the voters know who the top 5 are, what they presumably are not supposed to know is who got 80% "yes" on that ballot. Now, if someone told a voter all 5 got 80% then that voter would know the class. So, all the voters know the 10 who were eliminated, so those are likely from different voters with an interest in a ceratin candidate.
Essentially, it seems Haley and Bettis were on the final ballot of 5. And that those others were eliminate from the 15 to 10 or the 10 to 5 votes

So, either the highly ranked Cowboy official is wrong or one of Bettis's agents is wrong. The Cowboy offical has Haley, Bettis's guy has Shields.
