Jerry had said some time back in February that Tucker was already shopping around IIRC. 

And then his NIL value went down even more lol. I guess it all depends on what they're willing to settle for. If the goal is decent money from a big program I'd say they're wasting their efforts.

Yep, I know nothing, but found Jerry’s post.

That would suggest the opposite IMO. You can always withdraw your name after a coach is hired and you meet with him you'll be on campus through April into May. 

Unless its a big time coach you know you'll want to play for plus the uptick in NIL from hiring said Big Time coach ? 

It seems the best move is to put your name in the portal and maximize your options.  These are semi-pro athletes now looking for the best path forward.

Someone tell me more about DeVries.  I just don't get why we'd be interested.  One person told me his system in incredibly boring and hard to watch.  Tyme says he's a horrible fit personality wise.  Any of that true?  I only watched WVU once and wasn't impressed.

Tyme commenting on personality fit is a horrific level of irony.

seems smart on Tucker's end. Every adult at IU was just getting their bag and not developing him... 

can't blame him, but I'm sure there is a Tucker thread somewhere to discuss more.

Yah, but there’s no possible way the whole team could keep that secret for more than 5min. Somebody would be texting, instagramming, and snapping while they were being told. 

Maybe its more that they've been told it might be in their best interest to wait a few days. I don't know, but I agree, there's no way they have been given a name.

I’m confident it’s not DeVries at this point. If he had accepted the job it would be out by now. He would have let WV know and they would already be putting word out that they have an opening.

THAT I could totally see and, hopefully, that has happened. This would be another good reason to announce this sooner rather than later. We may want a reboot, but there’s are a few underclassmen who might benefit from a new coach.

Agreed. If he had let them know there's no obligation on their end to keep it quiet for whatever IU's timeline might be. He still could have signed and just not informed them yet, but I wouldn't see any reason to wait past today in doing so. Either way I think yesterday was all agent gamesmanship.

Well, we had the "Pope smoke" yesterday or day before and all it did was cause confusion LOL

[IU5355 803]

Good morning everyone! Probably going to a wild one today.
