Everything is subject to change. And that includes for the better. Today apparently went very well and an extremely well qualified candidate made a strong case and impression. The work that is required and being done by Doug and Company can not be overstated. That work continues into the night and the weekend. I believe , but again I do not know, that a new coach can and will be on board Monday.

Thanks for bringing calm and peace to the board. ✌️

The last two weeks have proven who are insiders and who think they are.


I’m neither.
I’m becoming an insider.

My only source told me the new coach would be Taylor Swift. But I don't think I should really consider my 10 year old daughter a source, so I've got nothing.

If Taylor Swift was the new coach recruiting and NIL money would not be a problem.

My understanding from my insiders is that Doug has seen the light and has decided to go with an OC and DC with no head coach. He has decided to lead instead of follow. All HC money is going to NIL. Special teams will be handled by our students with the highest GPAs. (Excluding any East Dorm students experiencing the chronic at game time)

So is the feeling is that we are hiring a first time coach, that's an OC somewhere?

I don't think anyone knows anything at this point, but that's a decent guess.

Steve respectfully declined to participate in the process but remains a strong supporter and advocate of the program. He hopes to return to the NFL in 2025.

The crowd noise when it is nothing but 6 to 40 year old women. Granted they would just be screaming at all times and know nothing of football.

If you listen closely and can read between the lines there are some nuggets of insight.

Oh and when someone “leaks” something that seems crazy trust your gut.

Other than Neal Brown, I haven't been able to pick up any sort of scent.

I would modify that to 6 to 70 year old women, and definitely a few men life myself who are dedicated Swifties.
