Alright, it is late afternoon

[Msujd164]

This is when the big news usually breaks to hit the 5:00 news. Waiting.

[MaroonFlounder]

The big news already broke.

Matt Brock is DC.

[Msujd164]

Brock was expected. You save your surprises for late afternoon.

[CadaverDawg]

I hope this isn't a big thud.

[Bdawg]

I hope this isn't a big thud.

Me too, because we haven?t heard crap about a 2nd candidate, which may be a good thing. No reporter has said Briles is out. And no reporter has mentioned another candidate. Hopefully just working out contracts and assistants.

Also, is Upig still kinda quiet on the matter?

Confidence gains on their side with each passing hour I would say. There is some worry on our side now. I think most thought this would be done this afternoon at the latest. I feel less and less confident as the day goes on.

On to your other point, I would imagine that other candidates have been contacted, but most candidates at this point will be a downgrade over KB. But hey we got Chad****

Not hearing much from UPig land either. I did peruse through their message board and saw a few references to the bridge between Briles and Pittman being burned and no way Briles would be back. I have no idea what that is about or if it is true.

There was a report on another team's message board (not MSU or ARK related) that some ARK coaches and players weren't happy with Pittman, and some may be leaving, and that if KB took our job then Pittman may be looking at their OC.

Maybe I'm misremembering, but some years ago, shortly after the Art Briles scandal at Baylor, wasn't the consensus (at least of many posters), that the Briles name was tainted, and many said they'd not want someone with that name on our campus?

[TrapGame]

Ross Dellinger to break some big MSU news around 5pm. That's the big rumor.

Yeah the one who said to look for Dellinger to post something this afternoon or evening and now around 5pm is pretty knowledgeable on MSU athletics.

So we know it is not Bert Stare.

Let's say we hope not lol. His prediction winning percentages have been really bad.

[Tough Dawg]

When you say around 5PM did you mean CST or PST? 1 hour or 2 hour buffer? Need to some more specifics

I didn't say 5 PM but all I will just say on that is that was not correct. I saw late afternoon or evening, but no specific time, and that may or may not happen. Some are real confident it's just a formality of getting the contract finalized and signed, and KB has already accepted the offer, but Robbie said on "Let's talk about the Dawgs:" they are still in negotiations. So I guess it depends on who your source is or maybe what info is allowed to be released.

Who is "real confident"?

[Catfish]

Who is "real confident"?

I just hope we have a good back up plan in place.

[yjnkdawg]

Who is "real confident"?

A few close to the athletic department.

[Tough Dawg]

Oh. And Thanks In Advance.

[StarkVegasSteve]

With it being about 5, if Dellenger breaks this before our beat guys that is pretty sad.
