Message: [QUOTE="kingtidge, post: 4597983, member: 994"] I am guessing the announcement was a contingency plan. I'd guess the AD and Jim had conversations about this being his last year and Jim was simply not on board with the idea. It was also clear that the AD and administration had drawn a line in the sand on that. Perhaps, plan A was to do this next week with an official announcement and press conference (and maybe get JB reluctantly on board by then and could pass the baton to Red with congratulations). But that was not to be... JB forced their hand in the post-game presser and crossed the line in the sand, so he was removed. [/QUOTE]
