You have to have to go through a few publications to get down to the core rumor this one's based on, but I asked Gov. Sonny Perdue Saturday if he wants to replace Michael Adams as president at his alma mater and mine, the University of Georgia.
Said Perdue: "I'm honored to be in that league, but I have not had any conversations with anybody about that. ... I'm going to be liberated Citizen Sonny (after I leave the governor's mansion). ... I don't know what's in store. ... I'm not campaigning for any job."
As he walked away, Gov. Perdue gave me a friendly shuck on the shoulder and said, "But it would be a cool job, wouldn't it?"
The twinkle in his eyes as he left aside, I'd say the governor pretty much shot this one down ... for now. It's worth noting that when I spoke to President Adams last week he said his timetable for retirement is in 4-6 years.
From Mr. Wheatley in the comments: Fictitious sources tell me Perdue might go to Truett-McConnell for a couple of years and then transfer.

Maybe? This thing on?
"I had siblings who did that."
Gold.
Lord help us if this happens. I would rather have him be Governor for 4 more years.
