The rumor I've heard from T-town this morning is that Shula, Moore, Witt, a few influential members of the BOT, and the University's lawyers are in a meeting this morning. No news on a press conference or anything else.
I have also heard that when Shula is let go, he will possibly be retained as a UA employee. Has anybody happened to have seen Shula's contract? I would like to see how it is worded. If he is only "an employee of the University of Alabama," and is retained in a different position other than HC, then the contract would be voided if he agreed to take a coaching job somewhere else, thus eliminating the buyout clause.
I'm telling you, the people in charge in Tuscaloosa are smarter than we're giving them credit for.

Facts will come out soon. In the mean time, let's enjoy the rumor mongering.
Rumor has it that Logan Young's will has a provision that says Young's estate will pay for Shula's buy-out clause in the event it's determined that Shula was never qualified to be a head coach. # posted by Anonymous : 2:09 PM

I read a post on a UT board by a close friend to Logan Young that he thinks there will be a change made today. # posted by Anonymous : 2:49 PM
Rumor has it that there are too many Rumors and Not Enough Facts. The only facts that I see are: 1. Shula is the HC at Bama 'til Mal says so. 2. Spurrier is old and is happy just getting by in SC. No Pressure To Win. 3. If something doesn't happen in T-Town Awebern will have Capps over for Thanksgiving Dinner Next Year Too. # posted by Anonymous : 3:18 PM
Could it be that Shula is taking over for Mal as AD? # posted by Anonymous : 4:25 PM
