JS speaks on the news

[HookemHorns]

Says that he has heard that Saban has been offered and is expected to accept. He also said that some BMDs don't know how the hire will get past Powers if it is Saban and they think strong is a candidate. He expects an announcenr Monday.

Edit (he also said some BMDs have heard strong was going to be offered)

JS is Jesus shuttlesworth of insidetexas.com

I can't take this anymore.

 

[HornEsch]

Ketch is posting that he hearing Strong believes he is getting the job.

 

[Earl Campbell's Cleats]

More specifically, basically saying different factions are believing different things (i.e., one faction believes it will be Saban and Strong is just smokescreen; another believes it will be actually be Strong).

 

[H-town Horn]

Seems pretty bass-awkwards to me. Why would an offer go out if there was a chance the president would/could kill it.

Reminds me about what someone once told me about clown shows.

 

[JimR]

I am sorry, but this is crazy.

 

[shawnb14]

We will all know by monday

 

[UTK66]

I'd prefer Strong over Saban personally (better fit).

Personal favorite is still Fisher.

 

[HookemHorns]

Strong is a powers guy. Maybe he is there in case powers nixes Saban?

 

[MBHORNSFAN]

If Saban is really the guy I have hard time believing that Powers will block it. I hope they're not setting Powers up as the fall guy for the 2nd time Saban does not come.

 

[Boobie Miles]

Powers has no option but to accept who is chosen. He was almost ousted last month.

 

[DizzG]

Dallas BMD think it's saban. Time will tell.

If saban is ready to sign it's not getting blocked. That's stupid. Powers would get fired

Agree. Putting a written offer in someone's hands that you don't know will be approved?? Do we have nit-wits handing out offers?

Why would JS say that was a possibility..i.e. Powers blocks it?

Agreed. Powers will do what he is told or pack his bags.

This sh!t is a mystery wrapped in a riddle inside an enigma

Agree. Why go through so much trouble to not leak it if it was someone other than Saban?

Put the pressure on? No idea

 

[HornNdriftwood]

In'97, Barnett thought he had an offer.
