Not official. But official. This is it. Don't source me, I'm jumping the gun by an hour but this is done.

Wags would you like to say I hope your stay is a short one? 😄

It's done. I think. Announcement tomorrow. I kind of wish it would play out longer because this is kind of Christmas.

How the fuck does G Board think fun = Christmas

Nope. Expect Northwestern to get a first down in the opener. Totally unacceptable.

Word around campus is Fickell withheld agreeing to the job until the BoT committed to funding the giant Spartan statue.

I wonder how much impact he had on the decision.

Now we have to bury Blackwell and build the giant Dantonii statue outside the stadium.

I think he had a big impact. I think Fickell was the choice before Dantonio officially quit. I could be wrong.

I go on twitter, maybe once a week.  Fuck me for doing it today.  And yes, I know, that's just administrative speak for "We're not saying anything till Luke's signature is on a contract". But, yeah, relax, enjoy the rest of the week. It's gonna happen, when it happens.

I would assume the BoT has to meet and approve, and a candidate would have to be fully vetted.

There might be other formalities that wouldn't allow you to make a hire this fast.

Pump the breaks. Rico saying it ain’t happening. Kind of makes sense everyone is asleep at those hours that it was “finalized”. No confirmation from any msm writer either.

There are a lot of reasons it wouldn't be announced this fast.
