The rumor of Republic opening an IAH base is as old as the Continental/United merger, when the Shuttle America E-170s started to show up in IAH. In early 2014 everyone was saying an IAH base was imminent and they got EWR instead. Then when they announced that batch of 52 E-175s for United in late 2014 Bedford himself mentioned in an email that DEN and IAH could be future bases; we are still waiting, and by the way we at Mesa ended up getting some of those E-175s (was it 24 of them?) when RAH entered chapter 11. Then everyone was saying that as soon as they exited chapter 11 IAH was going to open, and as of right now is still only rumors. They have always had a decent operation out of IAH, but they have always been against hub bases. Also Mesa, in spite of being Mesa, is doing fine in IAH right now, specially when compared to the other two United regionals that operate out of there.
No new major rumors floating around YX about IAH. Just the same old ones. Though it does sound like a new base is possible in the next 6 months. Not holding my breath for it though.

What is, is, for today. Make decisions based on reality, not rumor. Making a successful move based on conjecture and rumors is nothing more than crazy luck.
If you like to gamble, then gamble. Your aviation career is nothing more than an "all in" wild bet. Good luck!
