Circle of people who will know names of #BCCoach candidates is very small, and their lips are sealed. Anything else is pure speculation.
Bates isn't Gene. Fran Frascilla has no clue who we are offering what.
I've said it from the beginning of the process, Bates does not talk. No one knows who he's talking to or what he's thinking. Comments made by me, and I assume predictions made by others, are based on BC history and knowledge of the workings of the current admins.
That said, we will likely start hearing stuff in the press about the BC search, because agents of coaches leak shit all the time. They do this to (a) drum up interest in their client, (b) try to get the current school to up the ante, and/or (c) hope fans will encourage the AD to overpay. Further, once the decision reaches the BOT level, those guys talk like crazy (after decades with GDF).
Finally, I think it is telling as to the general perception of the BC job that media folks believe that BC would have to dedicate tens of millions of dollars to build a state-of-the-art facility just to entice a coach to leave the Ivy League.
