It's all set
Maybe, you know, due diligence?Any thoughts on why it took so long to land on Terry Parker? I wouldn’t have thought that it would have taken this long to identify him as the third coach, as an assistant at UAB. Personally, I don’t know him or anything about him, so any real knowledge on his background would be welcomed.

This prevents things like racing intoxicated with coed staff member in athletic department vehicles and such as that. We may not win as much as some programs but we do it better.

Well, it was about as real as I could come up with since the timetable seemed reasonable.I was hoping for a real answer. Go figure.

The added uga snark at the end is just my continued disgust with a program that has operated on the ethical fringe for decades and the firm belief that Tech at least tries not to cut corners.
But I will listen out for a more fulsome answer if you shake one out of someone.

14 days. Should have even posted the day after he told the old staff he wasn’t retaining them. He could have been courting him, he could have been looking and weighing various options. It could be that others turned us down. It could have been a bunch of things.That (due diligence) is a real answer, considering we'll never know the full answer.
I recall other names being whispered. It's possible Parker wasn't his initial choice. We also know we're required to have the job open for x-number of days before making a hire. All that adds time and are reasonable explanations/answers.

The one thing it probably wasn’t, was due diligence. If it were, then the gap between the first two and the third wouldn’t have been so large.
I was just looking for some insight from people who might know, not a throw-away comment.
Sorry. Not meaning to come across harsh or dickish, I just thought others might know something I didn't. I don't think it was due diligence.Sheesh. My apologies.

My take on this is that ”@kg01” is really just a (poorly-coded) chat AI that somehow managed to escape from its home server.Amazing that the Michelangelo of gifs would blunder so badly.
