Well the agent thing is all BS. So many coaches have the same agent so those conversations happen without permission all the time, which is essentially the agent's job. And most important, Mac wouldn't be taking these calls and RG wouldn't approve those conversations this week anyways. Reports have come out that Baylor hopes to talk with Mac after the game Friday.
Baylor may very well want to talk to him after Friday. I'm just telling you that they've had zero attempted contact with him as of yet. A week ago reports were circulating that Baylor had essentially closed a deal with CM. All such reports are bull****.
Yeah that's what I said, just added that conversations with AD's and agents happen all the time without the permission of the other AD and coach. If you think Sexton and the Baylor AD haven't talked about this I think you are being extremely naive.
Believe as you will. I know people who work rather high up in the Baylor athletics department and athletics alumni organizations. But again believe as you wish, I wasn't intending to start an argument over it. More just point out that nothing has happened yet. And, for the record, MM won't leave so it doesn't matter. Him getting interest from several schools like Baylor (who can pay 5+ mil) is ultimately a good thing as it's going to push RG to make offers to MM and staff that will help shore them up for the long haul (or so I want to believe).
Bill Mac had one foot out the door and came really close to taking the SMU job. So ya never know. I'd certainly bet against Mac leaving. But nothing shocks me anymore. Even if he were to, CU is now a pretty damned attractive job. I'd be more worried about losing RG.
I'm not sure what got you so worked up. We disagree on a little - and in the end, meaningless (because MM is going to stay) - matter. Besides, I know people in the current AD, not people in the admin/ BOR who made the decisions on who to fire in the AD last May.
I'm not sure associating yourself with higher up Baylor athletic types is something you want to admit these days.
I'm not one to hide from the truth. I have republicans in my family as well, even though I'm a democrat. Neither of those things go over well In Berkeley. But I'm not one to really care what most people think of me.
I'm suggesting that those people aren't to be trusted and aren't helping your credibility, if you missed that.
And I'm suggesting I'm not one to care what a random internet poster's opinion on such matters is, in case you missed that.
not really worked up, but you seem very determined to keep the HCMM to Baylor thing going. That's weird.
Not at all. I don't think he'll go anywhere. He seems to genuinely like it here, and seems like the type that would want to keep building his legacy rather than jump when it just begins to gain traction.
Hahaha. If Jesus is real he don't want nothing to do with Baylor right now.
I am not worried about Mac leaving for Baylor at all it is more of an indictment of Sexton the way he spreads rumors and such to get more money out of the currency school.
What I worry about most is some sort of weird administration change where Benson retires and is replaced by another Bitsy or something. I know BB has been a target of wrath, but he's been pretty supportive of the program.
Couldn't agree more. We are very very lucky at the moment. With RG, MM, JL and others, we have an opportunity to sustain something special.
I'm more than aware, and agree with most of what you say here. Can also relate to your first two points.
