10:34 AM Update - Players know nothing

Why? Have you seen a press release I haven't?

Nobody from any office has said squat. Everyone can deny everything to this point, and in an hour we could be right back where we were yesterday morning.

Wow - for this point alone I almost don't want it to happen. The hypocricy will be legendary.

I think JP shouldn't readily give it away either. But if that becomes so much as a tacky issue - who cares. Let it go. You're already up 2.5 in my book.

Mac hasn't made a statement refuting the mutual interest so that's all that matters now. There's no out for him. I'd make him pay and wouldn't budge. That's just me. The bed is made and I'd make him pay $800k to sleep in it.
 
Chris in your last release, you stated Justin Hamilton was at the practice facility.
This day just keeps getting odder by the minute.
If Mac leaves, is Hamilton back? Has he been in Ames since he announced LSU?

Between last Tuesday and Thursday I saw Hamilton and Buckley at the west HyVee buying groceries. I would assume that he would be finishing out the semester here. I would hazard a guess as he wouldn't be back since he has already announced where he is transferring to.

To some, Mac can't come back. But to many more, JP can't let Mac come back.

We can agree to disagree.

Regardless, if JP and the AD at CU are in fact good pals, I doubt this will be too big of a deal.

Get what you can, but don't let he deal fall apart because of a lousy buyout clause.

I'd like to reiterate, how lousy does everyone feel for Grayer?

He's still in school until the end of the semester.
 
It's amazing that people jump on Pollard with no knowledge of the facts. Other circumstances are involved.
 
From what I was told, JP told Gene that if he went to interview with Auburn, don't bother coming back.

I assume he told GMAC the same thing.

Get the $800K, they seem to want him, let them pay our costs to replace him.
 
sorry if posted

after google (ing) "Greg McDermott" found this on a few twitter accounts

RT @goodmanonfox: Sources told FOXSports.com that Greg McDermott's deal to Creighton should be officially done within next hour or two: ...

Homer: And you didn't think I would make any money! I found a dollar while I was waiting for the bus.

Marge: Well, while you were "earning" that dollar, you lost $40 by not going to work. The plant called and said that if you don't come in Friday, don't bother coming in on Monday.

Homer: Woohoo! Four-day weekend!
 
I think he's probably contemplating it and giving JP the option to offer him a competing offer. The only place to confirm he's accepted is the one news story from omaha yesterday. No other source has said he accepted the offer.
Greg wants a 9 year match and no nastygrams from the head shed about poor performance.:jimlad:Then he could retire at 57 or 48, his choice.
 
The fact that they know nothing is actually pretty telling IMO. I would think any coach would be trying to dispel the rumors if there was nothing to it...
You mean like say something about being "firmly entrenched in the community"?
 
They've got to be trying to negotiate a reduction in Greg's buyout or arranging financing of it by a booster or the First National Bank of Omaha on a loan that will be paid with "bonus" retention money from Creighton.
 
you know, is it possible Creighton announces GMac has been hired before Oregon announces Altman has been hired? That'd be funny. Technically, I don't think Oregon has officially announced the Altman hiring....yes, i know its a done deal.
