Any updates?

Any updates?

Not really. Based on the new rumor list from the Sporting News, we thought we were onto something with Barnett and Scottsdale, but weren't able to firm anything up as far as a solid connection to a booster, and I haven't seen a return flight (but there were a few Dallas-Scottsdale and Dallas-Pheonix flights the past few days.) The flights above for Peachtree make it look like we could have interviewed Chan (there was also another Atlanta-Dallas and back [or vice versa] the day before I think.)

If we did interview JJ on his way back from the Heismann, that should well be over. Haven't seen any definitive confirmation, but it looked like he didn't actually make the trip anyway. There are just too many flights between Love Field and Pheonix, Atlanta, and the small Texas airports to track the other three unless we can confirm a donor's identity at this point. We'll keep watching though!

My hope is that we have interviewed all four of these guys since Thursday (or even before that) and are in the process of making an offer so that we can make an announcement tomorrow or Tues.

I don't think JJ went to the Heisman ceremony (per newspaper sources)
