Is it possible to sign a letter of understanding, or an intention to sign contract that states that both parties agree to wait until the season is over to announce and sign a contract?
Honestly it's the only thing I can think of that males any sense right now.
No clue. But you’re right it is the only thing that makes any sense right now
Yes, but I just don't see how something like this would stay tight lipped; three bourbons and a slip up is all it takes.
And don't forget, for it to happen, that leaves another program douched unless they have a domino set up; too many fingers in the pot at that point to keep it quite.
I don't think there is anyone contracted at this point. Maybe as the playoff plays out, some HC might then say, I'm available after team loses or takes it all; situation really doesn't look good from any angle, imo.
BYU????? Southern, this is really getting bad. How many "targets" have outright said take this job and shove it? I guess we'll never know that answer. Heck, maybe even Manny turned them down, lol. Best move right now would be go with Terry.
That is called an agreement in principle and I am sure whoever it is that they have hired has signed one...I have to believe it has to be either Hartline, DeBoar or Cignetti...Why would they be interested in Lincoln Riley? Whoever it is that they have decided upon must still be coaching for their current team...The only people spinning and with their panties in a bunch are the talking heads who have no clue and the fans of the team who want to know who the next coach is and are getting impatient with the wait...I am sure we are getting a big time guy in here and it has already been decided...
@the-funeral-director the BYU coach is on Pennlive that’s what scares me. Hopefully it ain’t true. I’m sure the guy is a good coach but it’s not the same as playing Ohio State and Michigan 2 total different conferences.
@psu61 i always say believe what your eyes sees but im hoping this is different because I actually can’t see anything but dang it don’t look good. If Alabama was afraid of losing DeBeor wouldn’t there be some news and wouldn’t LK waited since that’s the job he really wants and I’m hoping it’s Harline but if it were him I just don’t see him at Ohio State right now that’s what my eyes sees. I’m a little worried 61. As an OC when you take a job you go right now or at least let the team you’re taking over know things are in good hands I’ll be there in a few weeks? Something ain’t adding up imo.
This new update on my iPhone stinks. It’s putting words in that I don’t type. I’ll admit I’m not the best writer and typing words but some of these words I’m not typing in there.
@the-funeral-director if rumors are true it is Sitake which means PK couldn’t get his top 3 to 5 targets at least. Maybe he will do well, maybe not, but definitely a botched process if that is who he hires.
@southern-psu-fan Not to worry Brother. AI will be able to think for you and write your whole conversation in a few years.
PennLive is an anti PSU football rag...Anything they can do to throw discourse at the program and fan base they will do...I don't believe a word out of that rag...I find it absolutely unimaginable that PSU's brain trust didn't have a guy already lined up BEFORE they shitcanned Franklin midseason...If that wasn't the case and they are indeed still looking for a head coach at this point then a lot of people need to be fired because this is pure stupidity...I refuse to believe these money guys pulled the pin on this and have no plan in place...If they don't have somebody lined up by now then this is the biggest debacle I have seen in a long time...I just refuse to believe that this is the case...
