Well, given that the AD at LSU wasn't there when Bo was, its not at
all clear to me that Bo would be a guaranteed listee.  I think Mike
mentioned that Bo is likely to be mentioned as a potential candidate
for every job that opens between now and when he actually leaves.  I
would agree with that - that he would be mentioned - but actually on
somebody's list is really speculative.

And to the second point - yeah, I really get into my work, and
wouldn't want to stray away from it to dive into a war of
speculations.  (sarcasm off)

My point is that it just amazes me that it seems a very large number
of fans of Nebraska seem to believe that Bo is going somewhere soon.
Or be drawn away by the lure of some horrible job like LSU (the fan
base there is nothing compared to here - they ask for and expect blood
- ask Miles about it if he is really considering Michigan).  Or Miami,
of all places.  I just don't see it, and I see no (zero, zilch, nada)
evidence that Bo even wants to consider other places.  I mean, he
hates dealing with the media - can you imagine what it would be like
for him in those places?  They'd be lucky to get two word answers to
questions there.  I think Bo likes where he is, sees this as
unfinished business, and its one of the top programs in the country
and on the rise.  No other job is going to give him the job
satisfaction he gets here.  And face it.  The way he dresses, do you
think money is a big attraction for him?

I know, its just me, sitting here in my fantasy world.  Speculate on.
