I think it was probably close to evenly split on Mac, and the half who disagreed was pretty much resigned to the fact.

I would not be shocked if Marty was working with Pollard on this - or the source Marty has is working with Pollard on it.

If Marty is - the only thing he'd love more than being the first guy to break it - is being someone that helped the process.

Likely just a conspiracy theory, but I simply just can't see how Stoops, Barnett, etc - are people JP would hire.

Good find. If true, I'm gonna make a naked snow angel.

We shall see though.

Some people out there probably not happy this got out there...again...if true.

We all knew it was only a matter of time. It hurt at the time to see it all happen.

Would be great if true, but I'm not betting on it just YET.

not really...I saw most of cyclone nation helping him pack.

Not trying to debate this, in fact, don't want to. However, the fan base was divided enough that some former players (even pre-Dan) checked out of the program both fiscally and spiritually, along with some fans and boosters.

Which leads me to believe it won't be Stoops or Barnett. Too divisive. All a smokescreen to unite us under the new HC (insert name here). I am confident JP is going to come through on this. This hire is critical for his own career. Go Jaime!

**CycloneErik** · 12-19-2008, 01:34 PM

True that. That would be awesome!!!!

Would we = the traffic we get for bad news with the excitement of a hire like this (if it's true)?

Great post. I agree 100%.

You should post more.

I'd love to really know what that guy's source is before I start jumping up and down in jubilation. Until then it's just a rumor that's no better than when Cotlar said that Fulmer's interested in the job or Miller saying that Stoops was going to be our next head coach.

Although if true, I'll probably jump head-first into the nearest snow bank
