And perhaps in contact with some folks who know what the major donors are saying. Why would that be so hard to believe? Not necessarily hard to believe, I just fail to understand why Josh is so hot on the scoop now? The dudes putting in overtime on this stuff. Was he chiming in during the Sunny Golloway fiasco? How 'bout the Corey/Clint Meyers scandal and how the AD handled that stinky situation? Or the most recent basketball fiasco with the Persons indictment, 2 suspended players and Leath wanting to can Bruce over it all? Was he in contact with some folks in the know that were major honors and getting their take on how they planned to disburse their funds if Bruce had been fired?

He is hot on the scoop because his sources/friends SHOVED this info at him. I guarantee he has done little to no work. The sources have come to him because it is advantageous to whatever side they have in this fight that the knowledge be public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess they are turned off on the buyout and the possibility of more 7-5’s after the buyout as well. It makes sense that they only want HR hires...

Ryan Sanders 123 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Moon may reported exactly what he was told, but that doesn't mean it is true in any way. People lie all the time to create a story - He should know best, being in "politics." We all have our own right to believe or disbelieve what he tweeted - and until someone can prove one way or the other - we are all right lol. I believe he tweeted what he was told.. but past that, who knows. Don't care anymore either. We are so beyond the Bob Stoops crap.. and now they just need to focus on keeping our recruiting class together and our players from jumping ship. Don't see any possible scenario where Gus will not be the HC. $30 million thrown away? hah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well he mainly does political reporting now, and the midterm and governors elections are all done so it’s not like he probably has a lot of political stuff on his plate right at the moment. And in this case he just happened to have a couple of rights sources that put him in the thick of it. I really don’t think it’s much more complicated than that.

api1957 1,783 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Ok, I think I finally figured it out. We're sending Gus to the moon and Leath is putting $10 in 3.2 million fans stockings this Christmas and Greene is going to hold a press conference with Booster (Jingle All The Way)?! Right?! That's what I gathered anyhow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, that is pretty basic 101 Journalism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gus hasn't out smarted anybody since fooling people it was his offense and not Cam Newton(Nick Marshall) making all of his bad play calls look good and successful by being Cam Newton(Nick Marshall). Gus is a classic case of the Dunning-Krueger Effect. The dumber you are, the more confident you are that you are not actually dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he’s a very good coach and recruiter. And more proven than the other up and comers I listed. But not a Stoops, Meyer, Dabo level guy for sure.
