Tom Jurich is currently on a plane http://flightaware.com/live/flight/N256CP/history/20140104/1900Z/KCOS/KLOU and is scheduled to arrive in Louisville at 4;30, expected to meet with Charlie Strong shortly thereafter.

MY THOUGHT:  For Louisville to survive this morning with no word that Charlie Strong has accepted the Texas Job is a HUGE DEVELOPMENT.  Many people are reporting that Charlie is conflicted.  It doesn’t have anything to do with money or Clint Hurtt, so while I still expect Strong to go to Texas there is a little momentum headed the other direction this morning.  10:20 a.m.

Pat Forde of Yahoo! Sports has reported that there is at least ‘one hang up’ in Strong accepting Louisville’s offer. Offer is there, no acceptance yet. 10:00 a.m.
