No. I thought some of the stuff was known, but I’m not wanting to get involved any further. Let’s just say TU isn’t interested.

I figured TU wasn't interested in him from what Chris had said several times over the past few days. I was just operating on the premise that they might be interested in him in this thread.(Two separate premises running concurrently.)
lol, I’m not sure what happened I accidentally clicked on your name and it popped up to unfollow… I’m really not sure what that even means on here I didn’t know I “followed” anyone lol. But sorry, no hard feelings@kcarzoli am I being too much of a miscreant?
I don't even know what it means either. Does it pop up under notifications in big red letters, or what? I was just joking, no hard feelings had!
On main forum page, I normally click where it says “last post 3 min ago” and I missed that and hit your name and then i guess I also hit unfollow at the same time. But I think I’m following you now for what that is worth
Yeah, I you only get notification if somebody is following you. You could unfollow me now, and I'd never know. I was followed by a woman that had a complaint against a football player on TU's team. Regrettably that one was serious. I had made a comment about him, and she took it as a sign I might know something about him other than what I said. Left me an email iirc.
You can accuse me of being excited to hear who we hired tomorrow. That one I'm guilty as charged. Hopefully you won't have to accuse me of being disappointed after the fact.
Old school drills and how to shoot a regulation Tulsa Public Schools spit wad - what more do we need
The on your belly on your back drill is highly effective, even for sissy boys.
That's because it was looking for JR's first
I’ve now been told this announcement could be as late as Wednesday.
Let’s announce/introduce the new coach in front of an arena 3/4 full of OSU fans!!

Also, Wednesday is national signing day. It’s a day ( or two) late to hire a coach.Let’s announce/introduce the new coach in front of an arena 3/4 full of OSU fans!!

If you want to make them cheer announce we hired Gundy! Sorry it was the first thing that entered my mindLet’s announce/introduce the new coach in front of an arena 3/4 full of OSU fans!!

Please ask your friend not to reproduce the last FB search. Odom is our new coach! Oh no, wait, he's not our coach. Wilson is our new coach! Oh no wait, he's not our coach, he's pissed that he wasn't our first choice. No wait again, Wilson IS our new coach! Nothing like leaking your new coach and then figuring out you can't pay him enough.
Report: Barry Odom out of the running to be Tulsa head coach
I can’t disagree with that.If you want to make them cheer announce we hired Gundy! Sorry it was the first thing that entered my mind
That’s fine. I was told by someone who would know that a selection had been made. Ever think that the candidate declined the offer?? That’s what I think happened. All told, I’m confident Justin will get this right.
So what you meant to say was: "I heard from someone that TU made an offer, hopefully there's an announcement soon." I appreciate your enthusiasm, but false hope man!
You’ve been consistently wrong so far. Maybe we should consider that you’re playing Opposite Day.
Really? Who told you the exact date and time Wilson would be fired? You can zip it now.
I'm very surprised that we'd get to the point of making an offer and leaking that the search was over without having an extremely high certainty the offer would be accepted. The process has felt a bit unsteady so far.
This program is taking its last breaths. I'm not being black pilled, just facing reality. Unless big money comes in and brings a big name coach and gets us into the "money" I do not see how my alma matter crawls back from this in the NIL era.
Everything I have heard from pretty reliable sources says exactly the opposite of what you say. In fact, I have been surprised with the amount of money being thrown at TU sports recently.
I don’t have any sources but I do feel this is the case. They hired a younger AD with a drive to get things done and I don’t think they would’ve done that without knowing they were going to have to make some changes to go in the right direction. His email he sent out gives you the feeling he will do whatever necessary to right the ship.
I don't have any direct experience but I think NIL is overrated as an influence. There have always been major differences between richer and less rich schools, that hasn't changed. If the interwebs are right, Big 10 schools got $60m last year and AAC schools got $10m. It's not like some teams suddenly got rich and upset an established system. If NIL was the main factor, then you'd expect the top 25 to be filled with rich schools, and that isn't the case. If anything, there seems to be more variability this year than in prior years. I'm not saying NIL is unimportant, just that I don't think we're worse off in this system than we were before NIL. I think with the right coach, we can compete for AAC championships.
Carson sees no reason we cannot be as good as Tulane. Emulate SMU. That we should aspire for excellence in all things.
Better decisions and resources are needed. But why not Tulsa?
