Sorry, I should have taken out the filtered word...tried to explain it, but I didn't, it seems.
The filtered word wasn't meant to imply anger or ridicule to you...it was meant to imply the definitive nature of my opinions on how Chris would follow up on that lead, if it's legit. As in...not 'you're so dumb', but 'no way, no how, not now, not ever' would that be how that happens...again, sorry if it seemed I was attacking you, that totally wasn't my intent. In hindsight, should have just worded it differently instead of trying to include the explanation.

We don't know. Someone responded claiming to be his agent (or member of that firm). That might be true, might be a creative troll effort, but it's led to excitement where we really don't know anything.
According to ISU "source" of crap, yes. According to his agent, ISU never asked permission from the Suns.
Haha this is unreal

I'd just like to say that the internet is a goddamned amazing thing.
Successful coach replacement is an in exact science. Unless you can get a catch like Izzo or Self there is going to be some projection and speculation on hire you think they will work out.
By many metrics McDermott should have been a great hire while Fred was a long shot.
Since there are inherent unknowns with hiring the from the pool of candidates that are realistically available to ISU let's pick the coach that we (the AD) thinks that will be the best for the program in the long run. Let's do it on our own terms instead of following some generic formula like X coach is from Y school and had Z success.
If the AD thinks so & so is the best candidate regardless of his resume or lack thereof then let's do it. There are risks either way we go but if we go with what we feel is the best fit and it doesn't work out. At least we did it on our own terms and not some cliche.

Exactly - JP should have never made a back alley deal with TJ. JP thought that he was above the donors and the university.

This is crazy. And we're not even 24 hours into the "official" coaching search yet. I don't know what to think anymore.
The whole thing with Hornacek's camp smells of putting pressure on the Sun's to **** or get off the pot.

Hines is a member of CF, I just know it.
WHERE YOU AT HINES? WHERE YOU AT?
Or just own up to it. If TJ fails he's likely gone anyways. If he succeeds he looks like a genious
Glad they are moving things along, but it probably doesn't matter since we have already hired someone apparently.

I see that, now.
That all broke right about while I was typing. Good timing, me.
