Anyone have any thoughts on the favorite for this? I see the OWH tweeted out two of the candidates. What is the timeline?

My guess would be Dr. Troy Unzicker. He's been on the Board of Directors for a long time. Good guy as well.

I have no inside information but I believe Unzicker's experience with the NSAA would give him a slight edge.
