I'm not on IT. I know nothing about their website or reporting. The last definitive thing I said is that UM is coming and I based that on the reaction of some of our donors that were personally involved in the process. I havent walked that back, nothing has changed, I havent heard anything that makes me think UM said no or isnt coming (outside of one guy who isnt involved). That Sunday, all communication was cut off and I havent heard from those people since Dec. 6th. I have no idea what they say on IT. I'm on orangebloods, and I know for a fact that Ketchum is completely in the dark and is outright making shit up.
Ive said Herman is gone no matter what since the moment I got on here. The second the 9.95ers "reported" he was coming back next season i immediately called bullshit. I'm 100% confident. @BurntOrange&White if you're so smug join me in the Herman IP ban.
The question now is when does Herman get fired? I’ve been told multiple times Herman won’t get his walking papers until we have a new coach tee’d up. If UM is indeed the guy, the clock starts really ticking once Ohio States season is over. I don’t think they can beat Clemson. Things should start getting real on January 2nd.
Houston guys drove the Herman bus. Dallas guys drove the Saban and then Steve Patterson bus which got us Charlie. Obv thats oversimplified but its generally true.
Didn’t get good news yesterday. From a Houston guy that helped lead the charge for Herman. He hasn’t been involved in this round though. Somebody told him something that has made him pessimistic about the UM stuff.
I don’t know how things are working right now. Could be the case that if you aren’t directly involved at this point then good information simply isn’t available. I get the impression that Dallas is driving the bus this time so this guy may not be as privy to what’s actually going on, but I didn’t get warm and fuzzy UM feelings from him.
We need to buy time. My guess is letting Herman coach the bowl game is a good way to do it. In between our bowl game and the end of tOSU's season is when I think the speculation will start to get extra uncomfortable.
I have enough "credibility" to call you out. If you want to buy into the 9.95 bullshit thats fine, but lets not get smug about it and act like people who think theyre full of shit are delusional.
Ketchum is completely in the dark. I really don’t want to see these 9.95ers start drumming up attention and talking out of their ass before it’s time.
The longer this thing stays in the dark the better.
UM has gotten to marinate on our offer for a long time now. I guess he could be shopping it around the NFL. No school out there can match what we threw out.
We'll set up two groups and set an alarm for 20 minutes and bet against each other. It can get pretty tense when you just cant get them to step in at the end. Havent gotten to do it in years.
Just talked to a good college buddy who has also heard we are in a holding pattern with UM. Dont know who hes talking to, theres a chance its the same people as me. Here's where I see points of interest:
NSD1- Today
Bowl Game-
End of Ohio State's season-
*** where I expect us to be Urbaning ***
NSD2-
