From Footballscoop: Akron: This afternoon we spoke with sources very close to the process. After those talks, we believe that Terry Bowden is the only candidate that was technically offered the job. .....
Makes sense. In business, you interview a number of candidates before offering the position to the one who you find through the interview process to be the most qualified. There are things that are brought out during the interview process that may cause either the interviewer or interviewee to decide that there is not a good match. It appears that UA and Bowden found each other mutually attractive during the interview process, and that mutual attraction did not work out with the other candidates.
And if the first one you make the offer to turns you down then you don't count that as an offer and make your first offer to the second best candidate.
Key word in this is "technically"

I ate at Robs for 4 years and never had those sorts of problems.
Now, I stayed away from the fish. That might have been part of it.
You must have also stayed away from the scrambled eggs at breakfast.
The scrambled "eggs" separated the boys from the men. Seriously, I've had better scrambled eggs in the Army then I ever had at Rob's.

Here's an interesting quote also. "According to the source, Bowden reached out to Akron."
Makes one wonder if the athletic department would have even tried to contact him. If that's the case, then Wistricill is still a fool.
Reinforces our belief that folks here on ZNO could've done the job for FREE that UA has now squandered $75,000 on: search committees. We were calling for Bowden two years ago, let alone a month ago when this process started. Like you, CK, I do wonder if TW ever even had Bowden on his wish-list. If he did, then why did he drive to Detroit and offer the job to a guy he snubbed two years ago? Did he somehow think Winters would do something for UA that a top talent like Bowden would not? How deluded is that thinking?
No, I rather suspect that TW fell into this one back-asswards, and may come out smelling like a rose thru no effort of his own.
Maybe he was just keeping his options open?

THE HAIR PART!!! The answer was staring us in the face the whole time!!
Good job Dan Brown
-
will pay between $375,00 and $400,000
You mean to tell me we're getting a guy like this at a price like that? Looks like Christmas has come a couple days early for the Zips! Now if you excuse me, I have some wood to knock on.

eat there and expect a case of the robs shortly thereafter.
This takes me back a couple years

I just don't see them splurging. I went with the low-end range.
I hesitantly agree with you. I'm also leaning towards them spending some dough simply because of how much they already have invested and how important it is to get things right this time around.

Give us a prediction...
big time football name family member.
............ as in a name. Details, or gtfo. I'm tired of all this beating around the bush people with "inside info" are doing. Either lay your cards on the table or don't play.
-
If it is true that will make my.first official breaking news story haa
Everyone with their "Inisde info" and the one person who gets it right is zippy_ua who got it from the radio
with the way things are going this wouldn't surprise me. -
OK, which one of you (bobbyake?, zipseuph?) sent THIS to CNNSI's Andy Staples?
Dude, I'm a Browns and Zips fan. These dreams are all I have
-
I wonder 2 things.
1) Does TW read these boards
2) How much of a laugh does he get from them.
How close do you guys think we are to actually knowing whats going on and how much of it is crap being pulled out of thin air?

OSU gets bowl ban in 2012 and reduced schollys. JT gets a 5 year "show cause" order.
"So you're telling me there's a chance?...... YES!!!"

I don't think you will have to worry about that. But, if its a bad choice you will see the new topics "Who Should We Have Hired?" and "Fire TW Now"
I think we'll see these regardless.
I think Zachthezip already has them primed and ready to hit "Post"

This film could easily be the next "Weekend at Bernie's."
Yeah, with the UA football program playing the roll of Bernie.

Find out who four (one being PSU) of those schools interviewed, wait until those four jobs are filled, and hire the best one that will take the job. Sit back and play MW3 until then. I'm half joking, but this plan is better than the last one.There have been a total of 25 FBS openings this year. 18 are now filled. The seven that are open are: Akron, Arkansas State, Arizona State, Fresno State, Hawaii, Houston, Penn State and Southern Miss.yeah, you strike me as more of a Battlefield kinda guy.

Campbell, who runs a balanced spread offense, said no one from Akron contacted him directly.
We're not actually talking to coaching candidates. There is no real coaching search going on. Again. Thanks, TW.
Thats one person. To support a claim like this you're gonna need far more than one person saying they haven't been contacted.

It's Dr. Seuss, not SUESS. Good grief.
Fair enough

I hear Paul Winters is our man and he'll be announced the second tuesday of next week.
Where do you guys get this information?
Dr. Suess. He's in the english department.
I'm not being a smart ass. It's a sincere question. There are a few people who seemingly have inside info. Where's this come from? Acquaintances in the athletic department? Local businessmen who are involved? Is this student talk from the Student Union? Hints from GA's?
I was going for a satire type post. If you re read it you will see it. I imagine you saw "Paul Winters is our guy" and missed the last part that makes my statement total bs. Of course it isn't funny if you have to explain it
You'll have to forgive me, I'm in the middle of a very boring 12 hour shift. -
I'm pretty sure that next week doesn't have two Tuesdays in it.
Not much escapes you Zach

Please God make this happen

Sorry, but if we wanted week old news, we could look in local news archives. As a former employee of a mostly student-run UA news organization (The Buchtelite), I appreciate the effort, but The Buchtelite, ZTV, etc. never provide up to date news.
Personally, I still enjoy this info being posted.
