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.

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.

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.
