Did Aranda sign an extension?
if not, it has to be him or BOB.

We are not waiting on a NFL coach that is still working and hoping he leaves his job. that makes no sense.

And the smoke screens on Riley i believe were not smoke. I think he declined this weekend.

This is absolute bullshite because he was even saying yesterday it would likely be announced Monday. Shea was regurgitating the same shite all the other insiders had. Riley agreed to deal, he would ink it soon after, announced Monday.

You know what the play here is? They got fricked and Woody whiffed big time. There's no great smokescreen for someone else, this is complete damage control. Know how we know this? Not only was everyone connected to the program reporting the same thing, they were telling recruits Riley is your next HC. You don't tell recruits who your next HC is unless you know. And obviously, they thought they had their guy.

You don't give a smokescreen like this out to create bad PR for your university. Wake up. Colossal frick up job. Stop denying what's staring you in the face.

They're either scrambling for a Plan B now or creating a Plan B. Hopefully they already had a Plan B in place.

Really bad cliff notes version of what he said.

He has not at any point communicated any real confidence that Riley was the guy.

I trust him I terms I’d this being so tight lipped. That’s why all the LR stuff was nothing but internet rumors. Sound like it could be a week or so, before anything happens. That part sucks, but hopefully that means is a big name. It Marks Stoops, or BOB aren’t hired today or tomorrow, those rumors will fizzle out imo. LSU could hire either I’d those two today, I’d that’s who Woodward really wanted.

The OP explanation falls under the category of “perhaps.” It also sounds like a bunch of bullshite floated to cover Woodward fricking up. Don’t forget, Dixon’s wife works for the LSU athletic department. He’s not going to say anything critical about Woodward.

His 2 trusted sources either don't know or won't tell who Woodward is trying to hire. They did tell him last week that the Riley noise was not consistent with what was or is going on behind the scenes. It is what it is - tight lipped...


This all sounds more realistic than the hair-on-fire bullshite we’ve been slinging around on this board.

I think we're looking at this the wrong way. I believe high up boosters BELIEVED Riley was the top target. I also think they knew how much money Woodward has to work with. Woodward's confidence led then to believe he had landed Riley and the rumor spun from there in the money circles.

I truly believe TBL and others have actual sources among high level boosters, but I also believe they were running with incorrect conclusions.

Perception-wise, Kelly, Dabo or Ruhle would be seen that way by the media. I doubt it’s Kelly or Dabo, but it could be door number 3.

Shea is just downplaying all this smoke b/c he is worried OU superfan Thomas Perna may come after him again.

He wasn’t a smokescreen. They offered him. He probably looked promising. It didn’t happen. Nobody was misled. It just didn’t happen.

He’s pretty much admitting that, and saying nobody does because SW has kept it quiet from day one.

we sure as shite did not go after freeze because of our PC admin. which handicaps us.




Freeze and Liberty lost their 5th game of the season yesterday. Perhaps there are reasons besides a “PC admin” that no school is knocking down his door.
