Sadly, I believe you are correct Kem. Having said that, I can dream damn it! I was really hoping Tim's Montana roots would bring him home possibly and that the appeal of being a HC would as well. A long shot for sure.
Judging by the other dipshit thread it has to either be Big G or the other guy.....Seems like both have already submitted their resume. Isn't this a "quiet" week? Can they have like a NCAA..err Chris two week ban?? Plus, no more Scooby late night snacks, for either of them....Holy Hanna.

I was just playing...I just want a fun quotable coach...like Delaney only funordigger said:
Any coaches left around that were involved in "Air Bear". I would love to see a return to some exciting offense, or at least on offense that plays to the teams strength. If you have a young weak offensive line, you have to rely on fooling the defense to help them out. The spread with the read option would be working great this season.

And you know this how? The guy is like most coaches. He coaches with intensity and demands/expects the best from his players both on the field and in the classroom. He is a great recruiter and he knows football. Now you may think he is an asshole by his coaching style, but it gets results. If you want to see the same results in Missoula, then hire another "players coach." Off the field he is a really good guy. If you developed your opinion of him just by what you see on the field maybe you should take some time to actually know the guy. I guarantee you would change your opinion.
Remember a couple seasons back when Mike Van Diest abruptly announced he was quitting right before the season started? Yeah, there's no excuse for that not even from a really good guy recruiter who knows his Xs and O's.grizman71 said:
That shit flies in NAIA, which is where Mike Van Die st belongs.

I personally don't think MVD is an a-hole at all. He's always been super great to me. NOW, his current players and many will tell you different. But then again, ask them five years after they've left the CC program, and they will tell you different again. MVD is VERY VERY TOUGH on is players. It's a well know fact. He doesn't disguise that. I've heard he's even harder on assistant coaches. I've heard Nick Howlett has been fired so many times he can't keep track of them all. LOL
I've never thought MVD was a bad idea as a future head coach of the Griz UNTIL NOW. EGRIZ and Griz Nation can't have it both ways. They want new blood, someone with no ties to the program, and someone who has new, innovative ideas. I CAN PROMISE EVERYONE that is Not MVD, nor is he interested in changing anything about his coaching style, his belief in his schemes or the way he does anything else, including dealing with adminstration and boosters. HIS WAY ALWAYS worked for him at Carroll. He will go down as one of the greatest NAIA football coaches of all time, and deservedly. IMHO, he's the greatest Frontier Conference coach ever, with no disrespect meant to Putter Petrino or any of the other legends. BUT, from what Egriz and Griz Nation seem to be clamoring for, MVD is neither "young" or "new blood".
