Just got off phone with DeLoss Dodds: "I’ve not made any plans to retire at any time. When I do, I’ll give you guys plenty of notice." DeLoss Dodds said he loves Big 12's Bob Bowlsby and Notre Dame AD Jack Swarbrick "but I'm not ready to recommend anybody for my job."

Would you be happy about that?
Depends on the replacement.
You wouldn't find it more likely that his stating of Swarbrick is but a hinting as to just how close the two AD's have been in regards to future movements? Why would Swarbrick make that move?

Quote:Sources said Dodds has recommended Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby to Texas president Bill Powers as a possible replacement. Bowlsby's current annual salary of roughly $2 million, including perks and bonuses, could be an issue for Texas regents, sources said.
Bowlsby is the former athletic director at Stanford. He hired Jim Harbaugh and David Shaw as football coaches and helped oversee raising the money necessary to endow all athletic scholarships at the school.
That is a project Texas president Bill Powers is very interested in pursuing, because it makes the athletic department completely independent of the university's General Fund and would allow UT to add more sports.
Attempts by Orangebloods.com to reach Bowlsby for comment weren't immediately successful.
Well, some of us have had conversations around here about how Bowlsby would be taken care of should it all be agreed upon at the top that the Big 12 be the one that is parceled out. I suppose being offered the AD position at Texas just before the conference is dissolved is one way of getting him on board.
That some of us, is it you and your imagination? Because this report has been refuted multiple times, even officially by UT. I guess you can keep beating whatever drum it is that you are beating about the Big12 breaking up along with Johnofthedumbopinions. However, no one inside the Big12 is buying it.
Well I have no idea how much attention you pay to these boards in terms of what you read. Obviously it is not much. What I can assure you is that the conversations have been very drawn out. Your 90 posts most likely means you have been present for very few of them and I would hazard a guess based upon your most ignorant statement that you have been present for none.
If you wish to hang your hat upon "public statements" then go right ahead. The rest of us will laugh at you as we have seen many a time where these public statements turn out false later on. It is called Public Relations. I will not bother to explain further though since it is obvious that your level of intelligence is not up to par for such.
You are hanging your hat upon a public statement by Chip fn' Brown. WTF? Laugh away. I know I am, LOL.

Who gives a **** about Texas, and whether their corpse of an AD is retiring? Non story.

RE: Orangebloods reports DeLoss Dodds to Step Down at end of year, UT denies
Orangebloods seems to be the insider when it comes to UT. Why would they risk that status by publishing a story they knew to be false or didn't at least have enough confirmation to cover their arse?
Texas has a rep for being run like a political machine. Could this be their way of getting the word out that they might be in the market for a new AD, football coach, basketball coach and/or baseball coach?
This could also be their way of saying, "Don't feel safe just because Dodds is the AD. You better get your fanny out there and start coaching."

The University of Texas is a multifactional machine. Right now it is also a very dysfunctional machine. I don't know what contacts Chip Brown has but if he is like many other Texas fans, he isn't a big fan of Dodds or Mack anymore. I could see him being the mouthpiece of others now as it would probably suit his personal feelings to do such.
He was the one guy at the Longhorns Press Conference after the BYU game that was asking the tough questions of Mack and it was pretty clear that him and Diaz were not very happy with Mr. Chip Brown.

Depends on the replacement.
What if the replacement is DeLoss Dodds? He does seem to be a big fan of the Irish.
Sure. Lets make a trade.

It is Texas. Plus, if reports of $2 million a year are true, he doubles his salary. Why not?

True. I don't know, guess he is in the mix too. I do think that Bowlsby is the frontrunner if any of this actually plays itself out but I could definitely see Dodds marking both of these men as the ones that he would prefer to be looked for replacing him.
What if Bowlsby was Swarbrick's replacement?

Surprised Someone hasn't brought up a Jurich/ Strong combo yet. That would cost Texas around 12 million a year to get.

IF Texas has any interest in a ND type deal with the ACC, and I am NOT saying they do, then Swarbrick, having just negotiated the ND deal, is worth twice that amount.
