Spoke to my friend. Said basically what I've read in here. Butch is gone, working on a leaving date. BoT, mega boosters, faces of the program etc agree to spend and agree on making a big offer to a certain party. There is less agreement on other individuals regarding personality/fit/past issues that will have to be worked through if certain party is not interested in the job. Some are win and let the chips fall where they may if a future incident happens and others are more concerned about perception based on past events or level of experience of certain parties. No names were given to me at all on who the one individual was nor on who else might be being looked at down the line in the event that falls through. Said the process was much more cohesive at the top than last time but there's always going to be disagreements to some level among power players regarding who ultimately lands here.
