The OP was obviously correct on the LOA. I assume the 2nd half of the post also has to be correct. Despite yesterday’s tweets, the issue could have been between Spanos and the D staff. Do we know how much input he had with their selection vs. Mora? Did the staff as a group push back on Spanos? I am a person who speaks up if I disagree with an approach, why not the staff too?

As folks here have said, Spanos directed one of the worst CFB defenses ever. New guys come in and they don’t agree with his approach. Maybe Mora had no choice but to step in And support the majority. It’s likely we never know what really happened, but today we get to see initial results of the break up. Go Huskies!

I would say Spanos had no input on the defensive hires since he was hired after them.

Hint:
  • How much of the press conference was about, while we want him to take care of personal business, Spanos is valued and respected and we look forward to his return when he’s ready?
  • How much of the presser was about the young defensive coaches and how well they work with the head coach?

If you reply to a thread a week and a half after someone breaks the news, you won't be able to convince anyone that you have breaking news on the subject.

Besides everyone knows that Conspiracy Kitty broke this story back on post number 121:

Conspiracy Kitty says:
I don’t want to tell tails out of school, I’ve been hearing that Lou Spanos is taking a leave of absence through the end of the season for personal reasons. I just got a confirmation personally delivered to my phone from ESPN.

The news I am breaking isn’t a leave of absence.

Sorry, my error.

Breaking News: Chief saw the press conference!

Granted, it was a press conference that any one of us could have seen but, let's give Chief a round of applause for putting in the time and effort to see it and then report back to us as if something was said there that only he was capable of interpreting.
 
A “leave of absence” implies an eventual return. “Indefinite” typically means it should eventually happen. Neither is the case.

The usual suspects here are stuck in the Randy 2.0 era. So much so that when Chief provides an easily readable roadmap, it creates confusion.

No offense, but you really think the FB regulars can't figure out that Spanos was told to pack his stuff and hit the road?

FWIW - There were more than a few Yarders that hung on to the notion that it was a legit LOA.

As for Chief - well, he's doing things his way - BAU.

Exactly, as witness the article Palatine posted.
 
Yah thanks chief anyone with a few functioning brain cells knew it wasn’t for the stated reasons. But thanks for trying to take credit 10 days later that’s good for a chuckle!

What was I trying to take credit for?
These things are narratives in your mind not mine.
