If you are doubting the in the specific you are correct: we have no idea how the MU BoT will react to a Wojo Power Play. Those ass clowns are unpredictable.

But in the general, if one party to a deal doesn't care if it closes then the likely end game is almost certainly, "F#ck off" 

But the fact that he usually would get an extension with the years left on the contract, and his name is being mentioned, gives him leverage with the extension. More money and/or more years,etc.

I do not think Wojo backers should have any concern on his leaving.

If you scroll down the link in the original post, there's a fake Wikipedia entry for Wojo that mentions him taking the Virginia Tech job on April 1, 2019.

Like Wojo or not, he is not in position to leverage MU for money at this time. If he is, he must think they do not clue of what they are doing. He does not deserve extension or more money. That could change, but not this year

This feels like a good time to remind people how rumor circle jerks work.

One person throws a rumor out into the world, they could do it by telling a few people or blast it on social media. That rumor reaches x number of people. Those people then call their "people in the know" to ask about the rumor. Reality is, most people's "people in the know" are not people with direct knowledge of the rumor. Instead, they are people who have also heard the rumor from the same source. So while they should say "I have no direct knowledge of this" they instead say "I also heard that rumor, there must be something to it." Those people then tell X more number of people and the process continues until the rumor is widely talked about regardless of the rumor having any legs or not.

Maybe Wojo is talking to VT. More likely he is on somebody's wish list and one "insider" got a hold of that wish list and started the rumor circle jerk process.

Mr Fargo called me today. Said he served a bald guy brisket, beans, and sweet tea.

So are all coaching rumors a non story until a press conference is scheduled?

He’s almost certain to get one right? Don’t they have to for recruiting sake?

Texting with meat summit crew did interfere a tad. She is not as interested about Wojo’s career path as I am.

First date with first bride was at Angelo's. As I was heading out the door I looked in the wallet which had $2 in it. Went to the Tyme machine and the account had less than $20 which was the minimum disbursement.

Saw a buddy cutting through the Union who spotted me a saw buck.

Dinner, beers at the Lanche then Ardmore and I still had $5 left.

My sources tell me that Wojo to VT and Buzz back to MU is pretty much a #donedeal. Buzz is also bringing on Shaka Smart and Mick Cronin as assistants.

i heard this from Dodds. He wrote it was a "done deal".

Buzz must be the experienced bench coach Wojo is looking for. Clearly, Wojo flew out to Roanoke to finalize the deal.

Bald guy could mean anyone in Tejas.

Ask Mr Fargo if the bald guy:

1. Ordered by number
2. Was doing differential equations aloud in his head
3. Didn't flush
