This whole process has been ridiculous. The lack of reliable info even after we thought we had confirmations is mind boggling. You bastards can just call me Sammy Sweetheart, because as far as getting my hopes up with all these goddamn rumors on this coaching search, I'm done...I'm done.


To me this smells like Alleva was pressured into Jones and AD is covering tracks by giving the impression that a real search is going on. If it's Jones that we do hire than there should be for sale signs in Alleva's yard the next day, IMO.

As I said in the other thread, may not want it known he spoke to Dixon because they haven't gone through the proper channels with Pittsburgh, asking permission to speak with him and all. Alleva said in the advocate that everyone at North Texas knows Jones is a candidate and they went through the proper channels.

There is way too much smoke about Jones for it to be Jones, IMO.

If it is him, what is the holdup? Something is going on behind the scenes, hopefully it's Jamie Dixon and neither party is wanting to admit to it, which is normal, so they just keep denying it. There is no way we have not had contact with him at this point. The more they deny it, the better I feel about it.

From what I have seen in recent past searches, the kind that know how to keep their mouth shut.

I think the AD is covering for Dixon.

I'm betting Alleva met either Dixon and/or Dixon's agent yesterday and they are trying to keep the lid on it by denying the meet.

What about this possibility: Avery Johnson.


His son goes to school and plays basketball in a nice suburb of Houston, about 30 minutes away.

I'm starting to think that it's possible that macaoidh's sources know he has loose lips (didn't he call Trent leaving early) and Dixon is/was just a diversion. Coack K FTMFW!

Exactly. alleva is not going to tell anyone shite and deny everything right up until the announcement for coach presser.

Well we all know that nowadays you have to have some minorities on your list to interview or Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton will form a march somewhere. Maybe thats why they released those names. Hopefully anyway


don't give the game plan away, that will envoke a boycott.

It's someone no one is talking about. This hire will be random IMO
That would be disappointing because we all now want Dixon. It's so easy for us fans to be messed with!
