The last big "don't sweat it" narrative was that the Board of Supervisors would approve Brady's new contract at their next meeting,
That meeting was yesterday - not on the agenda which is public record.
Since you love to play "Mr. Know It All" and take the beat down approach of "I'm right, your wrong" mentality with everyone, then allow me to take a moment and educate you on how the LSU Board of Supervisors works.
First off, you answered your own comeback when you said that LSU BOS mtgs are subject to public record, which they are. Knowing that, LSU is not going to place his new contract on the agenda for approval before the season is over, which they have said repeatedly, as it would likely lead to a distraction b/c the details would be out there for all to discuss and analyze. Those details will obviously include some possible shifting of other coaches that needs not be made public right now.
Second, what is not subject to public records or meeting access is executive sessions or committee meetings of the Board. So it very well stands to reason that IF a contract has been negotiated and put in front of Brady to sign, then you can bet your bottom dollar that it has already been run through at least the Athletic Committee of the Board and the Chairman to give their approval on it, thus making it a rubber stamp action when officially placed on the agenda at a later meeting after the season is over.
Third, this is how it has always been done with coaches, whether it be new hires or contract extensions/re-negotiations. The AD negotiates with the coach, signs a contract in principal that is subject to final review and approval of the BOS. But the fact remains that when that contract is first put out there, conversations have already been had with the BOS to ensure it will be approved when officially put up for vote.
So yes, it is very possible (if what insiders and local media are saying is true about a new package put together for Brady and him signing it) for Brady to have signed and it not be put to the BOS for official approval or to be made public knowledge yet.
And should you want my credentials on the subject: I am someone who used to work in higher ed. policy and closely with LSU admin and BOS; and that's all you need to know.

I remember you now. You tried to sell the idiotic notion that the 10,000 jugs reps the WRs did this Summer was peripheral to some sort of focus thing.
You are a basketball guy. You should stick to that. 90%+ of your posts are about round-ball in the midst of one of the greatest football campaigns I can recall.
THAT is all I need to know about you.

I would fricking HATE to be you. We're 12-0,about the play in the SECCG then the playoffs and you are obsessed with this shite? WTF?

1) Five names is a "short" list. Do the math.
2) Mark Anderson is THE most connected beat writer associated with UNLV athletics. Are you dumb enough to suggest that he had developed no background before publishing his list in Nevada's largest newspaper?
3) It is not unlikely that someone close to the AD gave Anderson this list to "run up the flagpole" to see who salutes.
4) Brady has been central to the biggest passing game turnaround in recent memory. Every football program in the nation knows this.
5) You'd have to be an idiot to think that some program won't roll the dice with him at HC (if that is what it takes to land Brady). The recruits he'll bring in alone will be enough to justify the gamble - win lose or draw.
So basically what you are acknowledging this that your statement "Joe Brady on Short List for UNLV Head Coach Job" submitted as FACT is premised solely on unsubstantiated ASSUMPTION that the writer got his list directly from the athletic dept. or someone connected therewith.
Perhaps a more appropriate and FACTUAL statement would be "Joe Brady on UNLV beat writer's possible Short List for UNLV Head Coach Job". A sports writer's list of POSSIBLE candidates is a far cry from an actual decision makers list of potential candidates
But since we are arguing about it, here's the actual text of the only article which mention's Brady. It is dated 11-26-19:
quote:
Now that UNLV athletic director Desiree Reed-Francois has fired football coach Tony Sanchez, the question is who’s next.
It’s complicated because Reed-Francois, as she showed with the men’s basketball search that resulted in the hiring of T.J. Otzelberger, will handle her quest quietly.
Reed-Francois does have a playbook of looking for what she considers up-and-coming coaches, but she hinted Monday that could be expanded. So don’t be surprised if she lands a more experienced head coach for this job.
Keep an eye on finances, too. Reed-Francois promised to be “competitive” compared with other Mountain West salaries, and it’s believed she could pay in the $900,000 range or so.
Here’s a short list of possible candidates listed alphabetically:
Joe Brady, passing game coordinator, Louisiana State. Only 30, Brady is a rising star in the coaching profession. He spent two years as an offensive assistant for the New Orleans Saints before moving into his current role with LSU this season. Quarterback Joe Burrow’s Heisman candidacy could attract a lot of interest in Brady.
Kalen DeBoer, offensive coordinator, Indiana.He is a nominee for the Broyles Award, which goes to the nation’s top assistant coach. DeBoer also knows the Mountain West, serving as Fresno State’s OC in 2017 and 2018, taking an offense that ranked 12oth to 47th in two years. The Bulldogs also went from 4-20 the two previous to 22-6 while DeBoer was there. He was the head coach at Sioux Falls in the late 2000s and won three NAIA national championships.
Danny Gonzales, defensive coordinator, Arizona StateHis work with a young defense last season earned a promotion to assistant head coach, and the Sun Devils are playing even better on that side of the ball this year. Plus, Gonzales knows the Mountain West, overseeing the conference’s top-ranked defense at San Diego State in 2017. His alma mater is New Mexico, which came open Monday.
Clay Helton, head coach, Southern CaliforniaHe has been on the proverbial hot seat all season, but the Trojans are surging with three consecutive victories to get to 8-4 and a No. 25 ranking. USC has a new athletic director in Mike Bohn, who knows he has a fan base that wants to get back to competing for national championships and might go for a big-name hire.
Jay Hill, head coach, Weber State.He fits the mold of a Reed-Francois hire, a coach still building his resume. Hill went 2-10 his first season in 2014, but is in the FCS playoffs for the fourth year in a row and earned at least a share of the Big Sky Conference title for the third straight season.
The context of the article clearly indicates this is HIS "short list", not necessarily UNLV's short list. And if he is "getting his information directly from the AD" then they are either giving him shitty information or he's just bad a gathering it, because the same writer just penned an article yesterday saying there appears to be "mutual interest" between UNLV and the OC for Oregon and DC for Utah. Neither of them were listed on the short list you propose, without any substantiating evidence whatsoever, came directly from the UNLV athletic dept.

Saints' G.A. to head coach with a cup of coffee (however delicious) at LSU would be ridiculously risky.

Exactly. This was posted on the Coaching Changes board over a week ago. Plus, UNLV posted the job opening on Indeed this week.
This thread is a joke.

While I did have some comments on the subject, I believe your reading comprehension could use some work. My statements, which still stand, were that the marked improvement was not simply due to the fact of the WR's catching more balls on the jugs machine; but rather the holistic approach of everything being done including the new inventive drills, to the application of physical scientific research and training. You know? The same things that have been written and talked about in many news articles and tv segments. But I wouldn't expect you to understand the difference since you would rather beat your chest thinking that you had something to do with all of it.

I don't know whether I should be creeped out or flattered by this comment since you obviously took the time to go through my post history to attempt to come up with this stat.
And yes, basketball is an important sport to me. Thanks for noticing it. It is because it is the sport I predominantly played and coached growing up. I don't comment on football as much b/c most on here generally have the same points I would make, well covered. I see no need in adding to the noise.
But overall, I do it because I'm capable of paying attention to and commenting on more than one sport at a time. You see; people with a full functioning brain can do those things.

The fact that you had no response to the point of my previous post, but would rather detract by hurling what you assume to be intelligent, but in reality are childish insults, combined with the fact that you only showed up on this board after Burrow arrived here (and will hopefully disappear as quickly when he is gone) and show support for only certain facets of this football team as opposed to the whole program, athletic department, and school, tells me ALL I need to know about you.

Posted a week ago? So what? The Gutenberg Bible was printed more than 500 years ago... that doesn't make it a joke.
The point is that Brady is now being taken somewhat seriously as a Head Coach candidate at a "mid-major" program. And that is an important fact.

Ok tough guy. Grrrrrrrrrr....
Why would you care anything about Brady after this year?????? After Burrow is gone, you will be gone.

Yeah, when you flip the script on LSU's offense so hard it breaks and a Heisman trophy falls out, some folks might think you're wielding magic or equivalently strong technology.

Question: "What did you guys [WR's] work on to get that kind of production?"
Answer: "I mean the 10,000 balls we had this Summer. I think that made a big difference, to be honest. Feel like the balls are coming a lot slower to us. We all agreed on that at the games."
"10,000 balls - We all had to catch this Summertime... Each - individually."
He made essentially the same comment in another presser, as did Jefferson. Distraction techniques are used by most programs and are essential with recent officiating that allows a lot more hand fighting. And sure, dominant eye identification has some value, but NOTHING compares to mega-reps of the 8 to 10 basic catches. NOTHING
LSU went from nearly the worst drop rate in the nation, to a catch rate that will likely be the best in the history of college football (or damn close). Jugs reps played a HUGE role in that improvement

Above is the new AD at UNLV, Desiree Reed-Francois . She has an athletic background (rowing at UCLA)
My money is on the 20-year beat writer for UNLV football (Mark Anderson) having a slightly better handle (for the time being) on who the big-money-boosters are showing an interest in for their new HC.
