I'll take the over on Barbers leaving for a better job rather than being fired.

I hope that's the case but I lost a lot of faith these last 3 weeks. Losing to Ball State at home by 17 and then that debacle that happened in Detroit was just awful. I think too part of the problem is he sees this as a stepping stone while greatest coach in program history Urban Meyer's first question to Lou Holtz after being hired was "How can I build a program here". Also his he picked some really inexperienced coaches for his staff as well

Not happening. YSU and Bo have both denied it.

That has more to do with how the entire MAC East was garbage and any instants of BG not looking like garbage were because they were playing East opponents, where they were the best of a bad lot. Against the West, every East team got exposed.

No, they didn't. The media is so bad these days.

I used the term media loosely. Maybe I should more accurately say "wanna be media on Twitter".

Who reported it? Maybe offered was indeed an exaggeration. My understanding is that conversations took place that didn't result in a hire.

Was told tonight #Michigan officials offered David Cutcliffe their job but the #Duke coach turned it down. Times sure have changed.

I hadn't seen that. Chris Mortensen is also reporting that no contact has been made, not even through a 3rd party search firm.

I have heard that they agreed to not publicize any conversations after there was no interest expressed.

That's where it started. Both sides already confirmed there was no offer, or even an interview. He was one of many contacted by the search company in the vetting process.

I'm pretty sure he was contacted, but that's normal.

I heard the same from Tim 'the asshat' Brando this morning, and Cowherd even reported it...just curious as to where you heard or read that he wasn't offered?

Makes sense and adds some clarification to the events.

Everywhere. The people you mentioned are reporting it based on Brandt's tweet.

I imagine it would be with the past Mi history.

I was only posting the recent reports as it related to the contact blitz.
