AP article with new title by Tsai (and his earlier story at the bottom.) Nothing new.

They all seem to be a rehash of the same comments, but I don't remember reading the "change of heart" line before.

It really is meaningless until we hear something definitive.

I would wait on those comments until we get a definitive tomorrow!

He is an agent. It is his job to get the highest and best offer for his client possible. I don't think he did anything unethical, and by the way, I still think he comes to SMU. His agent is just trying to get either SMU to agree to a final few items in the contract or more $ or get Hawaii to make another offer

So...

am I misunderstanding something?
Does JJ really think he will wake up tomorrow and find that Hawaii all of a sudden has Facilities?
Does JJ honestly believe that he's going to have potential for improvement in Hawaii?

I mean let's face it,

If he doesn't continue to work miracles in Hawaii he won't live up to expectations.

Agreed. I think he comes to SMU. It his agents job to get him the best two choices

Unless he changes it, he has a flight booked for Tuesday at 11:40am

If he retires in 5 years- how much of the facility upgrades will be in place to make a meaningful difference for him? Also, shouldn't he be a bit wary that it took SMU to get this out of UH. I am just glad it is almost over - so is my wife.
