I miss all this fun because I am one of the only people that follow mainly football for Illinois (I know Ill is basically a basketball school). I have another school I mainly follow for basketball.
Anyway, the fun I miss. All I know is we have our coach (Cubit)
Ha, thats kind of a backwards way of doing things here at Illinois. Takes a special kind of Brave to admit you really only root for the the Illinois football team.
Is the "N" nonsense? If so, I have decoded your message.

Brave really wasn't the word I was thinking
I would think Cubby Blue would understand, unless you just started rooting for them.
PS I am a Cubs fan also.

Serious question now..
1) Are you just toying with us all?
2) Is it a candidate we've all been talking about that we didn't think was going to accept the job (George/Tiley)?
3) Is it another candidate who hasn't been talked about at all.. Shawn Wax? Jim Phillips? Or... gulp... someone convinced Kowalczyk to be the permanent guy?
I highly doubt it's number 3. I'm hoping for number 2. I'm not ruling out number 1 but I'm banking on the none of the above answer and that it's probalby Michael (barf) or Whitman (yawn).

Note the mention of "leaks." This isn't one. Julie Wurth is the N-G's workhorse news reporter, she only works with confirmed info. They've picked someone, and it's either Whitman or Michael. The reference to those two candidates in that article came from the same source.
I've learned that these types of "signals" arent worth asking questions about.

George is officially out per WDWS radio.
Smart money has seemed to be on Whitman all along.

Act 1 of the Brunson/Evans re-enactment officially complete at this point now yea? Basically confirming what has been said from the start.
I can tell you what " " means.
It means: "I read the News-Gazette article that was posted 20 minutes ago that was obviously timed and orchestrated by the administration to signal a imminent announcement that the selection is either Whitman or Michael in an effort to stay ahead of the leaks which they know are forthcoming."

That's what I was banking on.

I think I may have to go the opposite and try to oppress people's posts, Illinois doesn't look that close to a decision.

Seems like it. I suspect Michael was mentioned as one of the two possibilities in the article because they couldn't just mention Whitman by himself, that would give the whole thing away.
Unless it's the opposite ... cold chill
