If Moser is not at .500 or below after this season, I’ll buy you a beer. Or a Tab on ice, depending on your preference.

LOL. No. There are not 6 power conferences. There are 4. Everyone else is way behind and fading fast. The PAC is a dying conference. B1G, SEC, ACC, Big12. That’s it. That’s the list.

If Jeff Goodman is reporting on OU's buyout, someone wants the news to get out. He's caught wind that Porter's agent is shopping him, and ND may be looking at him. How much of this is true and how much is Porter's agent is anyone's guess.
If I were him (Catholic guy from Chicago), I'd crawl to Notre Dame, even if they're a football school.

He is 100% the #1 target. Regardless what some ou fans think. Porter is very very well thought of.

This. We haven't seen the results that either we or he want, but he's very well respected in basketball circles.
They would be able to sell him to ND supporters. He wouldn't be the guy that was finishing at or near .500 at OU. He'd be the guy that took Loyola to the Final Four.

On face value ND would not be near the job OU is. BUT, I think he would be more suited to coach at ND. The expectations of making the tournament would be lower. Finish with a winning record at ND, make the tourney every three or four years, and maybe make a run. And do so not having to play the brutal Big 12. I think that's achievable for him.
But, on the other hand...it he's a true competitor the Big 12 may have a certain appeal. I mean he's coaching in the best conference in modern era for basketball. You don't get more challenging and, in a way, exciting than that. We fans may think he's already wanting out, but to him he could just be getting started. Maybe he's sick of being mid-major guy and wants to prove himself on the big stage year in and year out. Just my two cents.
But none of this means jack if ND is all a false rumor.

Eh, with every passing game I think the one run to the Final Four is getting harder to get excited about. He's had like fifty games at OU and it has been disappointing to say the least. Any ND fan who even halfway pays attention would pick up on that.

Per the Jeff Goodman tweet, the buyout goes down to $6M on April 1. It's still a lot of money. I don't know if ND would be willing to pay that, either.
But he would be a great fit there.
Regardless of the complaints about late game, I like Porter. I live a few blocks away from Lloyd Noble and attend every game and I like his passion. I saw some people earlier question his interaction with the other coaches, but I see him constantly seeking their advice throughout game, something that is probably not show on TV. I like the little things he does with the program, even though we dont show up in force most of the time to the games. There is also a reason we had the leads we developed to begin with. It is clear we have some serious deficiencies in key positions. The question is do you feel comfortable with his ability to address these deficiencies and get us over the hump? The ability to bring in a transfer to replace Groves is our key to future success it seems.

He doesn’t have to crawl. I’d gladly drive him.

it would be a very good landing spot for Moser. I would not be heart broken if he left but i'm worried we wouldn't get someone that is better.
I still think Moser can turn it around and want him to stay but it seems like a good match

NIL has to come from outside the school

This. I, too, worry we wouldn't get someone better.
