Stuff like this annoys me. If you’re just aggregating another persons report, retweet or credit them. Don’t just say “multiple reports.”

Amen brother, this dude steals more material than he ever came up with himself.

How much does UNT get paid if the rumors are true and his contract gets bought out?

I say we put a lid on this thread until after the game tonight. I have a lot of thoughts to say, but I think we could all do without the distraction for at least today. 

I’m here for this. Off to the Ok State game thread I go.

I think objectively, we all knew this day would come. But man, now that it appears to be upon us, it really, really sucks. 

I heard it was 3%. But seriously, if you hire good people you sometimes lose good people. It's that way in any business. If he has an opportunity to move up the food chain GOD bless him, as he left our program in much better shape that when he got here. The same could be said for J.J., which shows that if we make the wrong hire as we did in his replacement all that Grant accomplished goes out the window fast.

Who, Vito's?   Take him, he's yours.............

[Dannymacfan]

We should refrain from posting on this situation until after the game for goodness sakes.  It is making me very emotional!

[UNTLifer]

And Vito's latest tweet intimates that this is his last game with UNT.  Seems Bret has tipped his hand and doesn't think we can win tonight.  Well, let's prove him wrong.

If you wanna have more fun, click the link in his article about “multiple sources”. It just goes to Jeff’s tweet. Jeff is his source. 
 

Okay, back to getting pumped up for the game.

My mop sources tell me it’s on the purchase list for next season.

[southsideguy]

it will be a sad day in dentonville if he leaves for Tech.  Hope he stays, be hard to replace him for sure.

[MeanGreen22]

Vito mid game retweeting an account called Trilly Donovan saying Tech is hiring Grant is nasty behavior.

How many overtimes would we have to play to extend the NIT far enough into the year for TTU to move on?

Looks like this could be relevant.

Filibuster the championship game. OT after OT until Tech names someone else coach. 

[UNTFan23]

Well, Texas Tech has to wait another week.

But he’d have to live in Lubbock.

Is Grant originally from Oklahoma?

No. But his wife played soccer for Tech.

His first job out of college was at Tech. He even got a masters degree there I believe. I don’t think living in Lubbock would keep him from entertaining the idea of tripling his salary.

Exactly.  Lots of familiarity, triple the money…hard to be upset.  Also, Lubbock and the high plains are a fine area.  Let’s not act like the Trinity creates a much more beautiful atmosphere beyond the concrete.  Hope he stays, but expect him to go. 

[UNTLifer]

Rumor I am hearing is UT will not retain Terry and he will get hired by Tech.
