IF that is true that BH was turned down by SU and he was the #1 target then that is a MUCH different situation than the doom and gloom scenarios being spewed here.  My guess is that we have new tastier fish in the pond like the Iowa St coach.  Someone that [B]all[/B] the major donors could get behind.  Meaning SU put together a package that he couldn’t refuse.  Deal is basically done and now we have to wait a couple weeks for it to be official, but things will start to leak out unofficially.  With his team in the tournament though both sides will want to keep a tight lid as much as possible.

Or if not ISU then someone else out of left field that was interested thanks to the new regime that is [B]clearly[/B] a better candidate than BH.  If our top pick was turned away that can only be good news that we found someone better.  It’s the only thing that makes sense.  Sometimes the simple answers are right in front of us.

If SU was really struggling and panhandling for NIL and BH was the only big fish in the pond [B]they wouldn’t terminate that line of negotiation until all time and resources were exhausted[/B].  That is the key point here.  SU has NIL - it was always about finding a way to unify the donors.

The answers are right in front of us and we just have to stop assuming the worst.  Granted that can be hard around here.  Goddammit what is the matter with you people?  Wake up and be men!   (or women)
