Fuente 2.0.... He's a candidate, he's not a candidate

Since the other thread has devolved into... Well, I don't know exactly what now, I'll leave yall with this tidbit from Biddy tonight from an "east coast source"
So, to recap, since Tuesday morning, Fickell has gone from turning the job down, to becoming a serious candidate, to again turning the job down and Admins too uneasy about his lack of ties outside of Ohio, and Fuente has gone from turning us down, to a serious candidate to that could possibly be in the lead, to turning us down again, according to "sources" from actual legit media guys.
.. All in a day...

“Asked around about Fuente and was told “he turned Arkansas down once, I don’t see him taking it this year.””
Wouldn’t say this is the end all of this, but that end what I’m told from one person on the matter.

We all know it's kiffin anyways. He has developed such a cult, and most are ok with having him there really is no other choice.
Unless he truly is just trolling us on Twitter.

Leach is safer than Kiffin, but Kiffin will probably leave us in better shape if the new hire turns to shite. I still think Leach is a viable, and legitimate choice.

Leach is far less accepted by most, and he is not accepted where it counts the most. With the admin.
From most people claiming sources he seems to not be a candidate. I've seen quite a few say he isn't being considered. The only people pushing for him are Irwin, and the media who just want fun press conferences.
I think leach would do well here. Not as good as kiffin, but we would become stable again. Never win big, but would win 9 games sometimes. He does have a low floor though.

Noticed in the 24/7 VT thread a post by CZYHOKIE saying "He hasn't seriously considered it fwiw", with 61 upvotes. At least one other poster replied something along the lines of "that's worth a lot", so kinda made it seem like the guy is known for being reliable.

The Fuente/Fickell stuff has to have been a smokescreen.
It's gone awfully quiet on Kiff, Leach, and Campbell though.
I consider Norvell totally a Longshot at this point if most of the leaked/sourced info is correct.
Here's hoping it's The Train.

Just posting so the catholic poster can give me another DV because he is a thin skinned bitch
ETA: real response: 247 board is convinced its Kiffin, and fuente. Though most of those posters are so retarded they can't interpret Jim Harris's cryptic tweet that says coach #1 has more sizzle, and option 2 is a meat and potatoes guy that is a p5 coach.
Somehow some of those reading comprehension challenged posters are convinced that fuente is option 1, and kiffin the meat and potatoes p5 coach is option 2

That reads 180° backwards to me. Also, the cryptic tweet stuff drives me up the wall. Harrisatarian out... Ugh.
I hope the "meat and potatoes" guy is Matt Campbell. We could do worse than making a decision between Kiffin and Campbell, IMO.

does have a low floor though.
