I don’t buy the players opting out thing a deal to UM.

Wouldn’t that be more of an indictment of the current coach?

Go find where Saban himself has ever stated that he turned down Texas. 

That’s because he didn’t.  We turned him down.  Difference now is powers, Mack , jamail, Patterson and dodds are gone.

You won’t find that but Tom hicks did an interview and walked through it all. He wanted the job, Mack killed it.

Listen, I’m just amusing myself the same as everyone else, although I do think there are people here who are legit going to meltdown when the only movement we see today is the shit running down the legs of people in this thread. 

Probably, but that'll be entertaining and I'll be 3 bloody marys deep.

[Mikey4 2476]

Yes, I’m sure Urban would appreciate Shelly coming out and saying the answer was no when he hasn’t publicly stated it and if it was no.

Well what is he waiting for? And honestly, why would he care? If they have decided to stay in Ohio, wouldn't he say that? And why would he care if his wife tells people where they are going to live?

Or where Saban has publicly said that Texas offered him or was interested in him for a job?
 

the fact is that people get offered jobs everyday and never say anything about getting an offer or turning one down.

We Fucked up getting saban and if we can't land Urban and end up with plan c then we just need to accept the "we are Texas" shit isn't as real as we think it is. 

If we are then CDC should be able to slap His Texas sized dick on the table and urban says yes. We will see soon enough. I know there will be some still in denial that even if Urban says no we still are big dogs but we won't be if we can't pull this off and end up with another "cross your fingers and hope he gets even better at Texas" Coach.

Are you being intentionally dense? I'm not playing on the fucking "jump to conclusions" mat. If the answer were "no," neither she nor UM would have a reason to let these rumors keep swirling.

There are like 5 schools in the country that Urban would even pick up the phone for. No matter what happens, we're still fucking Texas.

Silence plus virtually no plan B activity. Silence from urban with Plan B chatter/interviews and discussion is obviously a no. 

I've been thinking about that. Could it be that a lot of what we've heard so far is people testing for leaks? Guaging public perception maybe? Because I think Texas will not officially announce any plans for a new coach until they publicly decide they are done with Tom Herman.

Correct.  It is not to saban or anyone’s benefit to say he turned us down.  
 

but urban isn’t coaching at a competing school.   It would be very easy to say “I’m loving this announcing gig and want to do this for awhile”.

Then why does Shelley tweat "lol" or "haha" any time someone asks her about Texas or Austin? If UM had conclusively turned down the offer, wouldn't she say "Please stop with these tweets, we are happy in Ohio and will not be moving to Austin"? That would be a simple thing to do, yet she continues to be evasive/cryptic.

I think those tweets rule out the possibility that he has already conclusively said no. Something is still happening. Perhaps they are still negotiating, perhaps they have a deal, or perhaps he's going to say no on Tuesday as Barton claims. Who knows. But he hasn't said no yet.

"Das ist un interesting theory!"

[BurntOrange&White 39934]

I just don’t see the purpose of waiting until after Kansas to make a decision. That game wasn’t even supposed to be played at that time, they are winless, it is the most meaningless game I could remember. There is literally nothing to play it for except tv money. If that game has to be apart of the evaluation then that is a testament to CDC. I think the evaluation has had plenty of time to happen. 
 

Klatt said it best yesterday, if you’re going to do something then don’t wait and do it, just do it sooner rather than later essentially. It’s unfair to other coaches on the staff, the players, and recruits especially with early signing day to let this dangle.

Urban doesn’t owe anybody a no or a yes in the public sphere. So to use that criteria as it is happening or not doesn’t work.

I think right now we have essentially silence. I think he’s in the bag. We get any indication of interviews and planes going here and there for plan B then I think urbs is a no.

I’m too lazy to search the internet myself, but why all the talk of the KU game being cancelled? I’d like nothing more than to end this shitty season and move on to the next coach, be it Urban Meyer or someone else, but are the COVID numbers on either the Texas team and/or Kansas team looking like they’re trending up?

So If we strike out on Urban and end up with another plan B or C guy after a decade has gone by We still are TEXAS.. Get your head out of the sand man. You think Bama will strike out replacing Saban or do you think they will go get the first guy they want? we just went through two guys that were hot names at the time and now have a chance to flex our muscles and get him so lets do that.

Fuck all that.  Rockets beat 4 50 win teams including the Orlando Magic who, wait for it.....beat MJ who was in the playoffs that year.  MJ couldn't even make it to the finals that season, a season in which he played from the midway on.  Bulls couldn't match up against a team with a dominant big.

Urbs clearly thought the host was going to talk about something else causing ulcers, and that something else made him jump.  

theory is that something else was the Texas job. Urbs jumpiness points to secrecy which points to yes.

Kansas had a ton of players out yesterday. There is a image somewhere with the list of names. Pretty surprising they played the game yesterday with as many players as they had out.
