Twitter post about Saban

[Alouha27]

Here is a post I found tonight on twitter. I had been reading this guy's comments but he doesn't seem to know as much as the posters we have here on Hornsports. Below is what he posted...

Answer the questions I can 100% confirm. Saban is NOT under consideration and is NOT an option. Art Briles now on A list but a longshot

10:52am - 21 Dec 13

...again What he is saying contradicts what some folks on here are saying.

So you lied to us! You do follow someone. Lol

Art Briles, the coach at Baylor, is a long shot? Yeah right....no credibility.

 

[Darrell McPhaul]

Unless Saban has told us no thanks, he is and has been more than under consideration.

 

[TexasEx_98]

I don't think that guy is credible at all. He has been posting all along that Saban was never in consideration. Do you believe that? Depending on whether you do or not, you can decide if he's credible.

 

[HookemDTX]

What is his Twitter handle?

 

[monarch]

...no way, would i accept arthur briles as the next head coach of the university of texas. no way!...

It was this guy....

 

[Dos Horns]

Saban won't come IMO, and neither will Art. Having said that, I would be elated with either of them.

 

[Darrell McPhaul]

Dos Horn,

What town to you live in?

 

[orangeflow]

I guess we will know the truth on Jan 3, 2014....one way or another..

Lol....I don't follow him...I check up from time to time.

I agree with you. Just thought his viewpoint was worth posting here for discussion.

 

[beevomav]

Well shit, some guy said it on Twitter. There you have it!

 

[Jhablinski]

Dos your wrong about briles

Be on the first bus out of Waco.

Laugh at the people who think otherwise

Keep in mind, many insiders have been told to cool it on the Saban stuff. Some of them are also publicly saying things like "it's unlikely" or "it's a stretch." Additionally, they've been told to keep it mum on the serious candidates. I'd love to have heard more about Jim Harbaugh by now, but so far I've heard nothing more though I know the discussions have continued. I also know John Harbaugh has been contacted, but haven't heard how that went.

So there are going to be names you hear because people want you to hear and talk about those names, and names you either don't hear or hear denials about. We're in the last leg of this so some will be quiet and others will be all over the board.

I suspect this gets lively again a day or so before the announcement, so when the stuff starts flying again, it might be right before our new guy is announced.

I am thinking along these same lines. Between the Sugar Bowl and the MNC I expect the boards will blow up. If Texas hasn't hired Saban by Jan 7th then I think the focus will shift to one of the other candidates.
