It's not what you think. It's actually just a simple matter actually. Be patient and let it play out. Coach and Bowen are busy men. They were down in Miami together this week.

There is NO WAY that would happen, IF we did that, he would not sign anything, play out next year and then take more money next year. And he would not be picky about leaving, at ANY school that would pay him [e.g. Kansas, Pitt, Iowa State, Indiana, Syracuse Type jobs] that he is not even considering now due to his knowing that we are committed to winning and committed to him. , which would be a lot.

Maybe...but after losing 8 starters and 10 rotation players on D...and 20 players overall...this would be too big of a gamble. It's just business. If you gamble by waiting to sign, sometimes you lose

Fuente has been totally up front with the U; AD and boosters are not stupid enough to double cross him or play hard ball.

You realized that the majority of the guys replacing our seniors are close to or have a higher ceiling than the seniors we will lose. I feel safe with Dillion, Avery, Suttles, Hunter, Brady, and some of our other that got major reps keeping things going. We aren't bare by any means next year.

The only time I've ever seen complete trust is in the face a dog...just sayin. I'm not looking for that in humans, though.
