I was going to start my morning off by doing some work, but with a 10-page rumor thread on the cbbs board and 4 or 5 more pages to this thread since I last viewed..........well Sorry Boss it looks like work is going to have to wait.

8:20am. No new updates. Just thought you should know.

Thank god I forced myself to go to bed before midnight last night.

Come on guys give me somethin!

@Skiblets screw work and get to Parker's offices and let us know who Warde is meeting with today.

It's been eerily quiet.

Do you all get the feeling that people who actually know what is going on come to this board to laugh at us? I am sure WM was in an Atlanta hotel last night ordering room service laughing at the idea that some shut-in who tweeted he may know something, actually has people listening to him about who the next UConn HC will be.

Yet....here I am...

Maybe there is truth to the Saban rumours.

Uh, Pete, don't send the tweet in the first place. Jesus

How many BY'ers are already formulating excuses why they need to take a nap this afternoon. Just in case another rumor surfaces around 11p tonight?

I was told Pete Roussel kidnaps blond babies and sells them to Romanian Gypsies. Just confirmed neither are true.

 

[ZooCougar]

This just means that said coach will not be offered and he won't be accepting.

Gotta watch out what you say about gypsies around here. Don't want a run-in with Kari Wuhrer circa 1996, do you?

Not necessarily. It just means that they weren't offered. By definition, an acceptance cannot occur with the offer.

My guess is Warde and/or UConn's Parker Rep told Lembo he is the first candidate interviewed and UConn is duly impressed. However they would not be doing their due diligence if they didn't talk to other candidates. I'm pretty sure he would accept a 4-5x pay raise to come east even if he is second choice. Money has a knack for smoothing over perceived slights like that.

Don't want?

This is killing me. Can see Parker's building from my office. Feeling a lot like Jason Bourne. "Get some sleep Warde, you look tired"

At UConn, we hear Narduzzi impressed the administration in his interview. Believe they have a few more interviews scheduled.

Time to start talking $$$. Wonder where interview was.
