If I were Stoerner, not only would I not directly answer your question, I would follow up later calling the source his friend's "barber." Or "butcher" Or "baker."

The more Stoerner can help obfuscate who his buddy and his buddy's source are, the better, I think. :)

Well, he's done that. Took lessons from White maybe. :)

I’m about to lose my toys if I don’t say a couple of things: I have never been told the name of a coaching target. My friend does not represent the person who is the source of his information. That’s my disclaimer.
Personally, I’ll add two more things: I really don’t want to be the guy known for pulling the wrong string that unwinds the confidentiality in this thing. As I’ve said before, I’m not an insider. I won’t be “sharing” for years to come on topics where I don’t have value. Usually I’m just the snide guy who pokes holes in logic of others, and goes back to work.Look at my history. I don’t post insider information, because I’ve never had any. I don’t live my life on this forum, and I don’t plan to cash any e-cred checks anytime soon. I have a pretty clear indication that the booster who is sharing with my friend, is sharing with one other person on this board too, based on an evidence trail. I think that booster will be asked to be quiet this morning, and that’ll result in me knowing less, and knowing later.
The boosters know target one because he has been a target for weeks. They don’t know other names below that. I stand by everything I said yesterday, and have said in the past. Two candidates have been notified that they are finalists. One is in a back and forth as of last night. I know the key problem is the perception that the NCAA issues are reputational issues that damage the perception of the job. I don’t know that they can fix that with money or length of contract. Barring two strikeouts, I still believe they will be in a deal today. Yesterday my friend said they’d have a coach by midday. I know DW wants to tell team before anyone else. I know every local media person has been told to sit in a corner until there is news. While they will do a national release through regular channels, the national sources have not been told who the targets are. While we could have already closed this, or may very soon, it could take a few hours to be released. I crossed a line last night, and said too much. I said some details about a friend that were beyond what I should’ve shared. I’m not going to delete or change anything from those posts. It’s my mistake. It’s on the record with everything else. We are indeed in a negotiation with our top target. I feel rock solid about that. No matter what they say about the order of events, I’m confident that they made a big offer to a candidate that we’d normally perceive as not in our reach. I think we’ll all be happy if that closes. If not, key constituents believe in DW (and therefore the other finalist) whether the fans will or not. I still believe we’re near the finish line. I’m not going to guess coach names. I don’t know, but I know enough to cause trouble.

Appreciate your candidness and insight....at least we are close and I have a good feeling. Thanks for helping us through this mess and giving us some hope amid all the speculation.

Which one is sharing more info, the staffer or the booster? You had said your source was neighbors with a staff member. Just interested which one is talking.

I think it’s clear he’s said all he’s going to say. As I said in another post, if my brother was DW I wouldn’t share anything here because everyone wants the details when none can be given. It’s dangerous to reputations of the sources and if it’s a miss then you as the poster will get brutalized by the masses.

Ok. No one seems to know for sure, or willing to say. It's either for a specific coach or a primer for when a coach is here. It certainly seems to be for a new coach though.

In very general terms to not get yourself in trouble, what sort of association do you have Enke?
