    Just heard Bjork to settle with Nutt

    Bulldog Mars' heat is too hot and providing too much NCAA info via subpoenas. Nutt gone get paid! Should have swallowed and apologized.

    If that is true...then the timing is awful coincidental....seeing as it was leaked yesterday that Mars wanted to subpoena the phone records of Bjork.

    If this is all true, Nutt may just drop a big box of paper in Forde's lap in celebration.

    Bjerk may want to settle, but that doesn't mean Nutt and Mars agree to settle.

    I think that this lawsuit is more about blood than money. Nutt wants to destroy the entire program.

    Well, the attorneys are gonna want their money but they are probably confident they can win in court.

    My question is, if OM wants to settle it and offer Nutt whatever his suit asks for, will a judge let it go to trial?

    Is Nutt going to give Rosebowl a little love for finding the magic bullet?

    No. Once the parties agree to settle, there's no point in going to trial.

    And you better believe OM will require Nutt to sign a non-disclosure agreement to prevent him from sharing info with reporters.

    Maybe Bdork said in his Macho Man voice "Let's settle this...in the ring!!"

    What is stopping Nutt from talking before, or sharing information before the meeting and non-disclosure yada yada?

    Probably just reserving leverage in the event they don't settle. Reserving his bullets. He can always hang it over their heads throughout the process to get them to do what they want.

    Also, Nutt and OM have a non-disparagement agreement, which is the grounds of Nutt's lawsuit (breach of contract). If Nutt turns around and talks to reporters, he's got a counter claim to deal with. While Nutt cannot disparage OM, his attorney can as long as it is deemed to be relevant to proving his client's case. An attorney like this will bend and stretch those rules to apply pressure.

    If this happens, the wording of the public apology and settlement figure ($10MM +) will be historic. I would not be surprised if the settlement was in excess of $15mm. IMO, the public apology will be lengthy and preapproved by Nutt.

    I don't think that "Mistakes were made" will cut it.
