You do know that the BOT meets regularly and 99.9% of their dealings have nothing to do with conference affiliation, right?!

if there were any good news at all for us, we would have a BOT meeting in about 15 minutes

Conspiracy Kitty says:
Or do they?

 

[brasssbonanzaa]

Re: agenda for the meeting, if there really was going to be discussion of a conference vote or anything related, it would not be listed on an easily accessible document on the internet. That said, I seriously doubt anything will come out of that meeting.

14. Executive Session anticipated

Thats where all the good stuff goes down.

 

[huskypantz]

I read through the entire BOT agenda just to see the line item "What to do with the extra 20-30 million annually from 'you-know-which-conference''s media deal". They must have mistakenly omitted it.

What is there to vote on really? Pretty sure Herbst has been empowered to act in matters like this.

 

[sportsart]

Hopefully "our" melogroovy takes this partially forged document and runs with it. See if he can get others to bite.

Love the Delaney honorary degree.
