Not sure if you saw it, but a thread was started a little while ago that said Manny will be on with Joe Rose at 7:40 in the morning.

UTK has plenty of $$$ but not like Baga or UGA. I've heard their fans complain for years about not spending enough on coaches. One of the reasons they ended up with Dooley and Botch jones. Fulmer was known as being tighter than a crab *** and he's now the AD.

No doubt and time is of the essence and surely Manny knows this. I just hope he's got it all together and isn't between a rock and a hard place.

Thanks! It's been crazy wading through all the noise. That being said, the silence is deafening! The possible scenarios seem endless but your perspective about the bidding war seems more plausible than others. Your post about the AFCA convention is very telling as well. That has to be a factor...

With your background, you've obviously got a lot of contacts MJ. What's your gut feeling on the OC?

Seems a bunch of termites coming out of the woodwork throwing **** on the wall hoping something they predict will stick so they can say "I told ya so."

Pure speculation on my part. College football live on ESPN starts @ 1:30 and College Gameday @ 3. I’m probably way off base but nothing would surprise me at this point.

I've said this a couple of times in the last couple of days - it wouldn't surprise in the least if Manny waits until sometime today or first thing in the morning to make his announcements on all his hires. It would be the ultimate middle finger to Sabag and Dablo by taking some of the shine away...

Being mentioned by other posters is what I was referring to. Should have been more specific.

Silence is golden? No pun intended! I think the silence is very telling. Something not being mentioned.

Certainly can't disagree. And from some of the articles I've read about him, he seems to have owned his mistakes (personal and professional) and learned from them both.

Great work as always @Lance Roffers! Those provisions in the contract could very well be reason/s for the apparent delay - IF it's Applewhite.

Great questions and may be answered in another portion of the contract.

Manny obviously doesn't give a **** what anybody thinks or says and that's a good thing. He seems to be checking all the boxes before he makes an official announcement. I'm more than OK with that. Even though I want to know NOW!

No doubt. There also could be reasons an announcement hasn't been made - whoever the hire may be. Something else of note - several CIS posters that usually have knowledge about these situations have been noticeably silent since yesterday afternoon.

Not being a homer. And certainly not blind. Just making an observation.

247 seems to rely more on other sources such as Football Scoop and seems to refuse to acknowledge Stefan's scoop. No mention of it at all unless it's in Ivin's VIP access.

BB game just ended.

I'm not one to boast.

@ 9PM there was about 3-1/2 minutes left in the BB game.
