Just some thoughts...

[Shaunsters]

2 days have gone by and there has been complete silence from one branch of BMD and the coach who should not be named. The deadline like I told y'all last weekend was set to be Friday. That has not changed. We want a answer Friday. From a guy that would know, There has been no answer given to us definite. They were confident last weekend that It was 50-50 or better for us. now who knows.

There has been communication up until Sunday night. Now it's the waiting game. My guy is starting to turn into a Briles guy. He does NOT want strong at all. Not what we need coaching wise. They want a guy with Texas HS connections. If it were to be strong that's a Patterson hire with not much support.

I hope Friday is a magical day.

 

[Ellie44]

No to Briles, please.

 

[Alouha27]

I can understand the silence right now. Nothing else to say until he gives his answer on Friday.

 

[Blue Horn]

Do you think Harbaugh is a serious possibility?

 

[Santiam]

What about John Harbaugh?

 

[Shaunsters]

No to Briles, please.

Ellie nice to see you here. What if Briles was forced to bring narduzzi or Jeremy Pruitt with him to coach D.

I know Briles gets a bad wrap for hating on Texas, but it's time to get over it. Especially if you miss on Saban and Jimbo

 

[JMagana]

Briles is not the answer IMO please letvit be Saban or Harbaugh.

 

[unclejemimah]

I hope everyone is ready to be disappointed

 

[bwub60]

Briles is 2 for me. I would be fired up actually my list would be

Jim Harbaugh

Saben

Briles

Malazhan

Fisher

 

[Alouha27]

Yeah I would go Saban, Fisher, Harbaugh before I consider Briles.

 

[TexasFirst1]

Saban is doing nothing before the Sugar Bowl is over... If his answer is no, is there is any reason not to say no by now??? Does any serious mind believe that Saban does not know what he going to do by now???

 

[Topstarr]

Friday is the drop dead date and not Friday night. John Harbaugh will be called in for the big talk. Is that what you are saying.

 

[Shaunsters]

What about John Harbaugh?

My guy I get info from, hasn't been high on John. But that doesn't mean there aren't talks going on.

 

[LongviewLobo01]

We better get told no by Saban, Fisher, John Harbaugh and Gruden before settling for Briles. I'm making the assumption that guys like Jim Harbaugh, Shaw and Meyer have already told us no.

Now if Briles were to come and we were guaranteed to have Narduzzi or Pruitt or Mason from Stanford and give them full control of the defense I might be more welcoming to him. But that's asking a lot. What happens when one of those guys leaves and we have to find another DC? Are we going to make that hire for him too or let him go get someone like Bennett?

 

[Alouha27]

Saban is doing nothing before the Sugar Bowl is over... If his answer is no, is there is any reason not to say no by now??? Does any serious mind believe that Saban does not know what he going to do by now???

He may have and we just haven't gotten wind of it yet.

Shaun what does your gut tell you on Saban? I kinda feel it has faded a lot of late or all the smokecreens are working to make us feel that way.

 

[Shaunsters]

Honestly I think a decision is made, but we do not know that answer.

 

[Hoekem]

A big BMD thinks its Fisher or Briles...as of Tues night. I guarantee you names don't change daily...just reports.
