That has held very true looking back at hires, none of us knew about Leavitt or even thought that direction, so hopefully its another pleasant surprise.RG and HCMM run a tight ship. That is how. Nothing gets out of the champions center until like 3 days prior to an announcement.
Because it's not the fan's business. I'm sure there is a shortlist, the question is how far down the list have we gotten to find our guy?Do we even have a shortlist? I know names like Diaco and Hobby have been thrown around, but how can we be so in the dark on this hire?
If Howell has an inside scoop here, it'd be the first time....I just had a twitter exchange with Howell-sounds like we got close with Sirmon and got played. He says we're not as close as we thought we were on a new DC, but have other options in mind. Doesn't know who yet.
he's making **** up. I would trust Adam over him...anyone hear what he (Adam) is saying?If Howell has an inside scoop here, it'd be the first time....
He's been run off the board by the "board ninnies". Adam is saying, let it play out.he's making **** up. I would trust Adam over him...anyone hear what he (Adam) is saying?
No, "we" don't. I'm sure Tuna Mac does.Do we even have a shortlist? I know names like Diaco and Hobby have been thrown around, but how can we be so in the dark on this hire?
Maybe so, but it's also not a great sign when it looks like we're missing out on guys at the top of the list. Whatever we think it Sirmon, Mac must have liked him and to strike out looks bad.Losing this guy is almost as bad as losing David Gibbs to Texas Tech 2 years ago.
We can only hope!Losing this guy is almost as bad as losing David Gibbs to Texas Tech 2 years ago.

Really hoping it ends up being DeRuyter.
No complaints if it's Walker or Diaco, though.
My only complaint if it is DeRuyter is that we could have had him the day after Leavitt left.Really hoping it ends up being DeRuyter.

I'm real sure that is not the reasonNah, why hire him in December when they can save a months salary payment. This IS the school that said in the press release that MacIntyre is getting "modest" annual increases in his contract.
Sirmon officially official at Louisville
We could have had Diaco a month ago, too.
So, with those guys available, why were we dicking around with Sirmon?
Other than Walker, since he is only recently available. But it does seem like if we wanted those other 2 we could have gotten them by nowKind of makes you think the guys nik mentioned aren't an option?
