Given the intra-conference move you’d think Ed would have denied the rumors immediately if he weren’t planning to bolt.

Ed Cooley, you literally just posted a tweet about him and the Georgetown job.
Thanks for the last name, it can be confusing when our AD is named Ed too. It looks to me like Cooley is going to Georgetown. Some of the Providence people are already talking about the end of the Cooley era.
My point is that Rhoades has been mentioned for P6 positions almost every year since he's been here and as far as I have heard (definitely not an insider) he has never even had a serious conversation with anyone about any of those positions. I'm very skeptical of Jeff Goodman really having any information on Rhoades even thinking about this.
I don't think Rhoades is going anywhere.

Don’t know what Ace will do, but like everyone else here sure hope he stays. That said, can’t help but wonder what if any affect his injury could have on his mindset. At any time a dream can be snatched away in the blink of an eye (Ala Briante).

Sure hope he sees it as unfinished business and wants one more run at it with his teammates. If it’s not in the cards I’ll be sad for us but happy for him and his family.
You make a good point. Our players have to consider if they return they run the risk of a devastating injury before they’ve had a chance to earn a nickel playing professionally. Not sure how NIL affects their calculation. They are having to navigate a very different landscape than their predecessors due to NIL.
