The “insiders” in the other board are saying Sampson is a done deal. So I guess we can mark him off the list

Beard isn’t on the table. That’s almost Gruden level.

Marshall maybe the smokescreen guy if there is one. Heard HY likes his teams. He definitely would take 4+

Yeah, no reason for Beard to leave considering he's already made the Final Four. He's either staying, or going to Texas/ a blue blood.

Not only that but we are just screwing ourselves by waiting on him. That will be another week of waiting.

Good Lord, from "Uncommon" and "Do things the right way" to "Hookers and BLow" don't think so....

I wanted Marshall 8 years ago and I’d want him over anyone besides the crack pipe dreams of Billy Donovan etc. I don’t want to have to google who the hell we hire ala Pel.

$24,000,000 guaranteed money if he wants to stay in Houston. Arkansas has put their best and final offer 6 years/$24,000,000. Pretty much take it or leave it. Quickly.

And as far as we know Houston is still at 3M a year?

Yes, and sounded like that was their best and final.

I hate the word "final"...

If a couple hundo thousand would aid the cause, do it.

Sampson is an elite coach and with a style of play Hog fans would love.

So, if he goes down the tubes... Marshall??? Mussellman?

Hmmm, would be a little bit of a slap in the face for sure if he turned that down. If we can get Sampson at 4M and A&M is paying Buzz almost 6M....wow

Momentum is starting to brew, the "it may start to leak out today" post is gaining credibility quickly.

We could have a new coach tonight, although it will be leaks and not "official" until Mon or Tues.

I mean, if 1M is the difference. I don't think a couple more hundred thousand will do anything.

We will see how well Hunter set this up if Sampson falls through, hopefully he has a nice back up plan that isn't Mike Young.

Sounds about like what what we were hearing yesterday.

I saw that some Houston fans were nervous because Mrs. Sampson hasn't been vocal at all on her social media lately. They said she is normally pumping their program like crazy but has been silent.

To clarify, they mean the leaks today/tonight would be far more official/mainstream media than yesterday.


There is also a rumor that Sampson is in Fayetteville right now.

I know what you mean and was agreeing. Yesterday people were assuming we would be hearing credible sources breaking it today at some point.
