[Da Coach]

Wow. Strange.

It appears to be true!

[Big Mike]

Wow........now that makes more sense to me....arkansas....do they even graduate any players? I just didn't see the fit for DA there...but this is wild....the CU boosters must have ponied up some more $$$$"s?

This is a really bizarre sequence....
This probably nixes any future chance any other school will pursue Dana, he seems to be having a little funat the expense of the Arkansas AD.

Now does P'Alen Stinnett change his mind again?

Why is it not professional. They guy had an honest change of heart. It happens.

I agree. I'm happy for the Creighton fans. Arkansas will land on its feet

Well... if he accepted their offer then he has an obligation to complete the deal. Not sure if he had signed his contract or not, but Arkansas is left in bad shape... what if, for example, they would have hired Beilein, but didn't extend the offer because they thought they had Altman.

Legally speaking, if you're negotiating with someone and you accept an offer the other party makes, you are legally obligated to complete the sale.

Anyway, I'm happy he's staying for Creighton and for the MVC... but if he just backleveraged Creighton into a better deal it's dirty all the way around... and if he just pulled out of a deal he made, while maybe not dirty, it is unprofessional in my opinion.

Wonder what Patrick Beverly is thinking now? He had a meeting with DA....PB's parents were also there and they felt really good about DA and announced he would stay.....now what will happen?

Word is he hadn't signed.....either way I agree its not a great thing for him to do but it isn't the first time someone has done it and won't be the last.

This is exactly like what Winthrop's coach did last year isnt it?

This is exactly like what Winthrop's coach did last year isnt it?

Or like Gene Stephenson at WSU.

[That Guy]

This is pretty much exactly what West Virginia's football coach did to Alabama, which then started the whole Nick Saban fiasco right?
