Norvell is the guy I was hoping we'd hire several years ago when we got Anderson. Now I'd be even more interested in him. He would cost more than Baldwin, but I'd put him just ahead of him on the list.

My gawd all these contradicting rumors are getting old. Information control from the OSU AD continues to be atrocious. ========================= So far I haven't heard one word from Barnes/OSU about this search, except to say that Friday's Baldwin hiring announcement was premature. OSU/Barnes have no "information control" whatsoever over someone else like Angie tweeting something. It is safe to say Machado, Crapzano, Football Scoop, Eggers, etc. get their information from "sources" near or within the university. If one of those "sources" is leaking out information, then the OSU AD has info. mgmt. issues. Case study in this matter = the Trump White House.

============================================
I think (as someone else mentioned) no one knows anything except Barnes, his guy making the travel arrangements, and Ray, after Barnes tells him. Anyone leaking from OSU will be looking for a new job. No one in the department is saying anything.

Ive been following the search pretty closely. Kidding hasn’t been mentioned in the same paragraph as OSU from what I can telI. I don’t think he’s commented either way. All I know is Corvallis is no Boca, but his kids live on the West Coast...that might be our best leverage other than being a P5 school. Or why Norvell was not pursued or mentioned more??? I like Norvell a lot. Most people are assuming he would go to Arkansas if offered, I believe he played college ball at Central Arkansas. However, Arkansas wants to make a move for Malzahn, so that will delay their search. UT supposedly interested in Tee Martin now...

So how do you know they haven't pursued him. We've heard pretty much squat on the actual search, interviews and such.

We haven't heard but a slight peep from them.

the cousin of a friend of a friend of the friend of the 4th exwife of the janitor (who works in Sections 201 to 224 at Memorial Stadium) reported a fan in the section who is originally from Modesto who once stayed at a Holiday Inn in Fresno thinks Tedford is staying in Fresno.

So how do you know they haven't pursued him. We've heard pretty much squat on the actual search, interviews and such. None of us know anything for sure. Typically some sort of chatter comes out when there has been some sort of activity. When the 49ers hired John Lynch to be their GM, he tested them to see if they could keep it under wraps. His thinking was that if they couldn’t control leaks he didn’t want to be a part of that organization. I believe only 2 people were aware of his vetting, and both would be his superiors. My point being that the fact this is secretive is a good thing imo. www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/18599516/john-lynch-used-secret-candidacy-test-san-francisco-49ersHere is my take on the search so far: 1. The search process has been secretive. All rumors are just that, rumors. As opposed to some of these other schools that leak stuff seemingly hourly. 2. I’m happy that Barnes and Ray are keeping it under wraps. Shows the new HC that they can keep things contained. It works both ways, it shows admin which coaches and agents can keep their mouths shut. 3. I believe the reports about Baldwin, niner, and Hall being interviewed. Too many donors want Baldwin and niner (per Yve Bernard) for that to be false. 4. Reporters are vying for any angle, thread, rumor out there and just running with it. No one knows wtf is going on. Major donors don’t know what’s going on. 5. I hope we are pleasantly surprised Only time will tell if the hire will pan out, but the search process has been great. They are taking their time, reviewing multiple options, and keeping it quiet.

Flight plan changed to Bentonville AR. Are we getting our next coach at Walmart? Stupid AD, could have saved 50% if he would have pulled the trigger on Black Friday.
