Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Recap of major rumors

Major rumors meaning its not just someone throwing out a name:

UW first offered Petersen. This happened before the Sark interview with USC. Petersen thought about it, then said no. (Source: BSU Scout site administrator.)
UW then offered Mora.
Nuss wants the job, and Woodward likes Nuss. Nuss has been the plan B guy all along. (Source: more than one insider I have talked to)

If all that is true, Nuss is the guy and should be announced today.

But some say Petersen is still in play. And no one is certain that Woodward isn't talking to other prospects.

    Those are the rumors. There are only two facts right now:

    1. Sark chose to coach USC
    2. Mora has chosen to coach UCLA

    Those are shitty rumors.

    Hope this helps.

    If this is true, than Woodward should resign. If I was Mora and knew I was second choice, I'd tell Woody to ef off too unless he wants to pay me $7m a year.

    Mora is a smokescreen for whatever shitty coach gets hired


    Fact

    If, not a big if, Woody is trying to play us, he's gotta offer Mora a damp towel and get his formal "no" before he then gets to the work of finding his guy.

    politicians do political things

    fuck us

    Fact

    My thoughts too. Woodward probably believes he did enough by extending offer to Mora to satisfy himself he has carried out his job responsibilities with due diligence and the fanbase should be convinced he is taking the hiring decision seriously. I think he is relieved Mora said no since he wants Nuss.

    It's not a think, it's a know.

    An offer is not calling him up and sayin ... yo brah ... want the job?

    So the new Half Brain conspiracy theory is, the UW made a fake, low ball offer to Mora just to calm you guys down so you would accept Nuss.

    Delusions of grandeur and paranoia all swirled together. Awesome.

    So if the UW made Mora a crappy offer, you don't think that would become public knowledge at some point?

    Do we know whether or not Mora was offered the job in 2008? Did UW approach Mora in 2008?

    It is public knowledge.

    $4 million was not enough to get him to move. As I said from the beginning, $5.5 or GTFO.

    We went for a hometown guy and didn't even bother to bring him back to his hometown! Getting Mora to walk away from a potential 2014 championship team at UCLA was always about playing to his heart, not his head. If you can't even convince him to visit his hometown where he still has a house for an interview, then you're not trying.



    Fuck my life ...

    That dark hole just keeps getting darker.

    By all accounts the UW offered Mora more money than did UCLA, and Mora chose to stay in LA, even though he supposedly loves the UW and Seattle, and this is still somehow Woodward's fault?!

    Whatever
