re: jimbo could be announced by Wednesday of next week.

Oh I'm sure they are. They are trying to get any scoop on a story they can.

another 200 am night on the cc board -

I've been following this whole ordeal closely and read this entire thread, and it reminds me VERY much of Arkansas' last coaching search and the posts on the team's main message board (Hogville). There were 1 or 2 "main" guys posting cryptic, incomplete sentence messages claiming to have sources, money figures, dates, specific names, etc. for a certain coach that everyone thought was coming.

Turns out these couple guys were 100% full of BS and it took Bielema - a name not ONE person had mentioned - being hired to finally end it. It was literally what DALSU is doing and everyone ate it up, when the few that actually had REAL sources (like myself) were being passed over because they were quietly dispelling the rumors that fell in line with what the fans wanted. The guys with connections didn't even learn of Bielema's hiring until the last minute because the athletic department, specifically Jeff Long, kept it under such tight wraps that the main 4-5 "big money" boosters (which was one of my sources) didn't even know about it until the news broke. Myself and a few others kept repeating the mantra that the main guy has not signed, it has 100% not been leaked, there are no details from "sources" because there are no details out there whatsoever, etc. and no one believed it because it didn't fall in line with what everyone was wishing for.

The search seemed to last weeks with this one single name being thrown around, even by legit news sources. Turns out it had been Bielema since day one, even before the official public-known "search" had started, and the hold up was only because of contract negotiations and giving CBB time to leave Wisconsin.

All I'm saying is to listen to those with the quietest voices not seeking the attention the most, they're usually the ones with the best idea of what's going on. People like DALSU don't have real sources, or else they wouldn't feel this need to have the attention and spotlight on them from a message board. If you have real people behind the scenes and have for a while, you do whatever it takes to keep that person trusting you and feeding you this info you can't get literally anywhere else. Period.

I hate the dreaded 3 putt lol ill make sure to visit the 19th hole after, take it easy drizz, you fine ranters sleep well and enjoy the holidays with the ones who truly love you

They're watching....

DALSU has a rep for having good info. His stuff is well-followed and often deleted(conviently). Don't be fooled, his threads are good. FYI....this one will be deleted soon.

But I'm still hearing Tom Herman for a sweet budget price over Jimbo for an overwhelming one. Herman pulling out of the SC deal means LSU, USC, or Miami.

I'm Team Jimbo. I want the guy here. I just can't believe it until I see it.

Once the deal is done, I'd love to share the OTHER coaching carousel rumors that I have.

True.

Les Miles is STILL so beloved that it has to be....

"Hey everyone, Les Miles is gone but look who we got!"

Jimbo is the only one who can fill the void.
