11AM (CT) Presser today

I'm a little surprised about the timing still. Why now, on a random Wednesday in the middle of the season? Gotta be more to this than they're telling us.
I was worried about that also, but I think it makes a little more sense from a preparation standpoint. Do a search, make a hire, then have the person ready to go Jan 1st, versus announcing the retirement on Jan 1st.

that is a good point. you can not do a national search and keep it a secret that TO is planning on retiring.

 
@danhoppen

Jamie Williams said that while he would be interested, Chancellor Perlman has not interviewed him yet for the now open AD position.

@JohnBishop71

Jud Hughes, who is ading Perlman in search, helped Michigan hire AD Dave Brandon & Brady Hoke. Also helped find Mark Murphy, CEO of Packers

@danhoppen

Jamie Williams just compared Osborne retiring to Master Yoda laying his lightsaber down.

@danhoppen

Another Jamie Williams comment on Osborne: "They don’t make a lot of Tom Osbornes. I think they kind of broke the mold after that."

 
I have sources on the inside that they TO is retiring. I am also hearing Harvey will NOT to a public search. They are also saying TO to stick it out until Jan 1st

My sources are usually correct on these things.
You're so wise.
We should hear something shortly.. They said a presser will be at 1:00 today.
Can't wait.
i think 1:00 gmt.
I will never trust those guys again..

 
@CoachMiles

Dang it. I've had a tough week with names

This, after Scoop Smiles butchered Rex's name on live TV at the football game, and tweeted that "Coach Osbourne" just announced his retirement 15 minutes before the official presser.

You have to love this Tim Miles guy. He's a riot.

He's not related to John L. Smith by chance, is he?
