It could be something major, it could be something totally minor. What I would say, from my experience, is that the people who need to be working on it are definitely working on it.

We're impatient and want things NOW. But, the people working on the deal are humans, just like. They have limited ability and bounded rationality. In addition, there are severe NDA's, and limited access.

Perhaps they are waiting on budget projections, policy rulings from the NCAA, an academic board meeting, or maybe someone just asked for two days to think about it.

Butch is ultimately as good as an interim, and future looking people are losing concern for the present. To use another poker analogy - Don't throw good money at bad.

I didnt mean anything by it lol but I see what you are saying. Those that know me personally know I used to play online poker as a side job. Have final tabled a few WSOP circuit events but no huge scores. Made an extra ~$20kish a year playing part time three nights a week until the DOJ decided they should seize everyone's money...wait is the DOJ running the UT AD?

LOL, didn’t know the backstory but didn’t mean anything by it. All I meant are people are inferring literally everything at this point...pocket aces mean dates, etc. Anyone in here can drive half the posters to a stroke or Xanax at this point.

I might pass a quiz but with a low grade. Mostly here for the memes and the preacherWebb "over my head" posts.

And maybe to vote against making gypsy sarge a mod.

Not the first time we've heard this.

Paul, despite his smarmy demeanor, is quite connected in Knoxville. He knows a lot more than Hyams.
