If Burman truly is flying to Detroit via commercial

Last thing I will say until I can confirm it and I will not mention names.

I have heard he went west, I will not say where west but west. This could be dead wrong (so do not hold me to it) as I have not confirmed it and believe me I have been trying all evening.
So we can rule out kansaspoke?
 
If he's hiring Gilmore, there wouldn't be a press conference Sunday night. The Raiders play at the NYJ... Which also wouldn't make sense for him to head out west.

Let's cross our fingers he's meeting Tedford in Reno.
 
You know when you have a feeling that your credit card is getting up there...and you don't want to check the checking account because you know it is running low.... So, instead you sit there in ignorance knowing that once you found out the truth either way you wold be pissed off and probably club a baby seal? Well...my friends, this is where i am at. I am scared as hell for this hire and don't have a good feeling about it. So, instead, I will just sit back and play oblivion and hope to everything sacred, righteous and holy that Burman doesn't dick this up.
 
no the opposite of the MW board is that he is an existing D1 coach which means its Tedford or Gilmore... then on twitter poke pride refused to answer a question when someone asked if the guy was currently coaching Sundays... meaning he is hearing Gilmore. Regardless, that is what he means by opposite. Gilmore or Tedford... back to the two names we have been hearing. Its Gilmore

lol fantastic analogy. I'm so lost right now. I'm expecting someone I know very little about, if anything at all.

If Gilmore is gonna be the coach why would he care to be in NY for the game? he's leaving anyway, not that hard for him to fly home and get stuff packed and Burman go get him
 
He has a contract. He would finish out the season with the Raiders, I assume. No way an NFL team is going to go without a WR coach for the remainder of the season.
 
Coaching career

Gilmore began his football coaching career in 1994 at his alma mater Wyoming, as a Graduate Assistant Coach under Joe Tiller. He worked with the tight ends and Wide Receivers, including two-time All-American and Biletnikoff Award winner Marcus Harris. In 1997, Gilmore was promoted to Wide Receivers Coach, and served another two years at Wyoming.

Gilmore spent 1999 as the Tight Ends Coach at Kansas, and the following year served as Tight Ends Coach at Houston, before rejoining Tiller at Purdue as Wide Receivers Coach in 2001. Gilmore coached all-time NCAA reception leader Taylor Stubblefield as well as Big Ten all-time career receptions leader John Standeford.

In 2003, Gilmore was hired by Colorado, again as Wide Receivers Coach, and worked alongside Shawn Watson, with whom he would later work with at Nebraska. While at Colorado, Gilmore coached all-Big 12 and future Seattle Seahawks receiver D. J. Hackett to a school record 78 receptions as a senior.

Since being hired by then-Head Coach Bill Callahan in 2005, Gilmore has served as Wide Receivers Coach at Nebraska, while also serving as the coaching staff's Recruiting Coordinator. Since joining Nebraska, receivers Terrance Nunn and Maurice Purify finished ranked as the #2 and #5 career receivers at the University, with Nunn finishing just seven yards short of the all-time school record held by Johnny Rodgers and Purify finishing just short of the school's all-time receptions record. In 2007, the Nebraska receivers helped the team to a #8 national ranking in passing offense and a #11 ranking in total offense. At the conclusion of the 2007 season, Gilmore was retained in his previous duties by new Nebraska Head Coach Bo Pelini while also being promoted to Assistant Head Coach.

After the 2010 season and several years of poor performances from his receivers, Gilmore was relieved of his job as a coach at Nebraska, and on February 24, 2011 Gilmore was named Wide Receivers Coach at USC.[3]

In February 2012, Gilmore was hired by new Raiders coach Dennis Allen to replace the departed Sanjay Lal as Oakland's Wide Receivers coach
 
You have to think, if Tedford wants the job he will get an interview and most likely be offered the job. Gilmore and anyone else would be waiting on Tedford.

All these national guys wouldn't be reporting the info on Tedford if there wasn't substance.

So did Sark at UW and Peterson at Boise. We can't afford to hire a guy that can't recruit until January... He would leave the Raiders

Also Gilmore is a Tiller disciple. So all of this is adding up now. Not very excited about this hire.

"D _ M M I T"

I would like to buy a vowel... An "A"

In all honesty all he has said is west. We need to recruit west so it could be good. Its all conjecture at this point anyway
