Let's try again - Gilbert to Texas

[Mike Roach]

Per reports from both Texas and Tulsa things got done thanks to Greg Fenves. I'm a little worried posting this some other crazy thing is gonna happen but looks like it got done.

Another big question is will he be on campus to speak with recruits this weekend? Just a thought, not expecting you all to actually know the answer. Very short notice for all involved. Next question: do all of these crazy flights by UT personnel acquire frequent flier miles?

I need proof.   I hope he can draw some plays that will hand the ball to Chris Warren.

Higdon says he'll be on campus tomorrow. Huge basketball game tomorrow afternoon - would be a good opportunity to introduce him at halftime.

Thanks, Mike. Good news at last! Just in time for our recruiting weekend, thank God and Fenves!

Hopefully we can get some verbals tomorrow! Welcome to the 40 Sterlin, hopefully for real this time!

That would be a huge positive in this crap storm we have endured.

I've been reading the board in spurts today. I don't have access to any paysites. I'd like to ask a serious question.

Where is the info coming from that a BMD or group of BMD's are to blame for this?

Please delete the 10 or so various threads on this topic.

So I'm currently getting my ass torn apart by Baylor fans for not giving up my source on this.

I mean I can say that it came from a higher up in the administration after meetings with Gilbert fizzled the first time and reaffirmed with a meeting and reconfirmed by Tulsa reporter, who wanted to stay unnamed for job security and to avoid Baylor mob.

I didn't know what he was talking about (the Tulsa reporter). Now I know.

Lol.

edit: apparently the joke of wanting to avoid the Baylor mob went over their heads. Oh well.

edit2: let me reiterate. The Baylor mob thing was a joke. Tongue and cheek. [SIZE=14.6666669845581px] A joke not to be taken seriously. I'm done for today[/SIZE]

 

[Hiphopopotamos]

You be you Will. The problem is, Baylor fans don't understand that no means no.

Briles is busy recruiting his next all american rapist but he will always have time to try to crap on us.

He is a d-bag pissed off at the world because he cant keep his hair.

Not giving Charlie a blank check = not supporting him

From what we know things got mucked up in the negotiation process. Whoever handles and approves those things (BOR) seemed to stall on important details. Fenves for personally involved.

So then we have no reliable information that any BMD did anything wrong? Am I right?
