Update: Kelly buzz..."The Thread" Hall of Fame bound.

Sorry, just a pet peeve of mine. That's why I can't watch Kirk Herbstreit.

 

Weekend is here. If we don't hear something tomorrow, then we can say their sources have been off, as we have been told at MOST by the end of the week with the Chip announcement. Once Friday comes and goes, I think all bets are off and probably the talk goes back to Frost / Mullen / Norvell . Chip will probably remain in the conversation, but the longer this takes, the less likely it will be him, as there is nothing keeping them from signing / announcing earlier than the season end. In fact it would be malpractice not to, as it will have a major impact.

 

just trying to help

 

He took a speed boat

 

Pie r round

 

Haven't heard anything of the sort on my end. I plan to check back in first thing in the morning, last I heard we were 95% there, just waiting on those few kinks to be worked out. Have heard the big money for assistants thing, but not as a problem - as something that's in the contract. Usually the way these things work is the school goes TO the person or the person's team - generally won't see the candidate or their team in the town until it's done.

Some of the snags end of last week were a booster or two against the Kelly hire - they were outnumbered. Haven't heard anything about Fuchs and admin as a whole being against it. This could be a late development, I'll see what I can find. To summarize, only thing I'm hearing is this thing is pretty much done.

 

Yeah, I hear you...
The word “literally” Is used way too much (inappropriately) and I fell into the trap of doing the same thing on that post.

 

With the lack of anything being posted by the GC writers on Twitter it makes one think that a gag order must be in place.

 

eww, she has big collar bones

 

And...a shrubbery. One that looks nice.


And not too expensive.

 

I keep thinking... if there was this kinda buzz around the most recent men's basketball hire, I'd be the most legendary internet poster ever. Dammit!
Oh well... I have nothing to add here. Back to NBN.

 

Maybe Chip will get one of these to ride..

 

Thats the thing I dont think people think about. There is little reason Chip shouldn't be hired tomorrow. The more this goes on, the more likely it's leaning away from Chip. He's not coaching. This was reported as a "done deal" on monday right?

And yet it's looking like we legitimately might not have a hire by Saturday.

I hope I'm wrong, but if this was Frost, it makes sense. HE's coaching another team.

With Chip? Whats the hold up? For real?

 

Do you handle the advertising for this site trying to promote clicks?

 

I didn't have TV when I was a child because I had no childhood.

I was forced to act in front of the elders who of course had never heard of TV.

There minds were too full of thoughts of rape to visit civilization.

Thank you.

 

Several articles suggest that CK would go after Lupoi as DC with possibly Day or Helfrich as OC. Sorry, don’t know how to link from the phone.

 

Shit, I wish. I could probably get their clicks way up on the actual site. I mentioned in an earlier post that I fell back from posting maybe a day and a half ago since there's nothing to report outside of the contract is being worked out. I try not to post if I don't have anything substantial.

 

My source tells me one of the sticking points is Kelly's agent ,Rick Peck, is playing hardball, something about a Tevo clause being added to the contract guaranteeing his client some form of digital video recording at all locations.

 

I respect you trying to give us as much information as possible. My question is, last weekend, you were all over the board reporting that Chip will be announced 48 hours at most, then that was extended to by end of week at most.

I don't expect you to reveal your sources, but do you confront them or ask them with "why have the things you have reported not pan out yet?", what do they say? What changed? Something is clearly off.

 

I saw the same in a few places. If that's the case, Lupoi has to be paid $1M to even budge. So the big budget for assistants thing would make sense.
