Del Rio's agent contacted LSU? Did I miss that? This guy is my favorite for the position and I know somebody on here mentioned they "knew" he had interest in the job, but who reported that his agent contacted us? That's very interesting... I think a lot of people are starting to realize that Butch Davis isn't a good fit for LSU... His NFL debacle alone is enough to question it, but even what he did with Miami is questionable. What do others think of Holmgren? I haven't heard much about him.
You're kidding, right? You're basing Del Rio's agent contacting LSU on something read on the nolalive message board quoting and that person's source is the ESPN message board? No offense bro, but all cedibility lost right there. As much as I'd like it to be true, it's wishful thinking at this point.
How about this? Oh OK, I guess that bit of rumor wasn't as substantial as some of the other "solid rumors" being thrown around. Actually, my second cousin's ex-wife does Terri Saban's nails at "Lakeesha's Beautatorium" and she overheard the cleaning lady say she heard Ms Saban tell someone in the lady's room that Nick ain't going anywhere. That better? Let's face it, everyone is speculating. All I said was that I had read something on an internet forum, and provided the source. I would say the post on the nolalive forum has about as much chance being accurate as anything being bandied about on this one. Everyone is grabbing at straws and I have a feeling that some folks with clever handles ("Hi, I'm 'Hayseed' from Tickfaw and I know for a fact Nick is staying...") are having some fun with us Tiger faithful. :shock: BTW, take a look at the Orlando Sentinel, there is an article about LSU interest in Del Rio. I was going to register but it's too much of a pain in the A. I'm surprised Saban hasn't already announced he's taking the Fin's gig -- maybe it's not too late to give up hope? But I'd rather be pessimistic and surprised than optimistic and disappointed.Got It?
Bobby Petrino's new contract does not have a buyout clause. Jeff Tedford's new contract essentially does not have a buyout clause. I think the deal is Tedford's contract only has a buyout clause if Cal begins $140 million renovations.
I wouldn't bash the guy. all he's doing is what everyone has been doing around here for two weeks. what about the maimi herald, a mainstream newspaper serving millions of people? they have severly botched two saban stories in the last couple of days. baseless crap. everyone tryong to get hte latest scoop but many "real" journalists" are crossing the line, using weak sources as breakthrough stories. just take it for what is is.
Jimmy Ott, who has sources, also said DEL Rio's agent had contacted lsu. Del Rio's wife is from Louisiana and his daughter went/goes to lsu.
