Key tweets, and it's all gone to Hell.

The coach was on the staff pre-realignment and an internal hire. That is context. Hiring KO still doesn't support your argument.

Hiring a first time head coach who wins a National Title in year 2 doesn't matter? Oooookkkkkaayyyy...

I guess so he can say he tried...

The two consultants, Navigate and BHV, have gone into the meeting room, presumably to give their presentations to the Big 12 presidents.

Consultants BHV and Navigate have concluded their presentations and left the room. Big 12 presidents now talking amongst themselves.

And the moment of truth is here. Vote for maximum market reach and best future media deal - then vote for some combination with UConn or vote for best culture fit and smaller future revenues - vote other school.

So this is the part where they tell them UConn adds the most value and then they disregard it and add Houston.

Exactly, just like the schools.

Thank you, X, for participating in the process. We admit that your input meant nothing, but you helped to put on one heck of a show, and we appreciate that.

You performed admirably, representing your motherland well, and we'll be sure to keep your resume "on file" for future reference.

Be sure to have a good day now, and don't let the door...

Well F.

Yep, saw where it started on twitter: kid says he was told by his boss to cut these out for a backdrop for "something big" tonight.

 

[Seaa Blue]

Well F.

Hang on there. Stuff like that happens.

Based on strong sales after the Chicago Bears’ 2007 NFC Championship win, Sports Authority printed more than 15,000 shirts proclaiming a Bears Super Bowl victory well before the game even started. And then the Colts beat the Bears, 29-17.

Go Colts!

So now we are at the point where the work-study print dude is breaking CR news?

Sooooooo.... It's Cincy and UConn.
Nice.

 

[JSM1970]

I doubt they would be using the logo if they didn't get consent. Probably them and either UH or BYU

I'd say that's still probably 800% more reliable than any car wash employee.

Fixed

Hey, leads for stories come from all different places.

Really though, it's totally plausible. Not saying I'm sold but the guy making the banner for the backdrop is just as likely to break something as anyone else.

TCU Student Newspaper.

 

[IMind]

 

[LoyalFanCT]

Nothing against TCU student journalists -- but why would they know this before all of the other reporters trying to get the story. They have no sources, just saying it's a rumor. Maybe they are right. Or maybe they are wrong.

Rigged system.

So at 12:12pm we had "consultants completing their presentations" and now we have 2 schools ready to be invited.

Okay.

 

[NYUConn]

Nobody knows anything right now for certain right now.

Entering today, no decisions had been made. If they were, reps from the various schools would be in Dallas, which they are not.

We are being told that presentations are still being made, so if people are still presenting, it's also pretty likely no votes have been taken.

Reports could be coming out where people are getting leads on what the conversation says, but nobody knows anything at the moment.

Being reported that's is not the correct University of Cincinnati logo from the University of Cincinnati style guide that is normally used (secondary logo). This is.

Edit - and the picture no longer exists on his twitter page.

No announcement, just speculations. Tweet was meant to excite not to inform. Please don't jump to conclusions. We'll see at 5:30.


We'll see...

 

[JSM1970]

Formality it seems. If Cox' info accurate about BYU/Cincy reps and media there and they get in then this was determined previous to this meeting.

Best case scenario is UT/Texas puts tons of pressure to add Houston and we get a chance as the 4th.

There were other tweets stating the comment about actual UC reps being there was not correct.
