Maybe Mart's right

[Miller]

and I don't know, but lets say ISU is in a bowl game for the first time in years like Arizona is. Would Pollard come out and say that his coach has been approached and that he's entertaining an offer from another school 48 hours from the game. Off course he wouldn't, it's best for everyone to pipe down.

I don't claim to know Pollard but I think I know him well enough that he'd respect another schools wishes if he's was going to hire that schools coach away.

Why not just wait until he is fired after they get embarrassed by BYU?

Maybe Mart doesn't know his *** from his elbow, to quote my favorite movie.

Are you doing this for ratings?

I wouldn't be surprised if Pollard has asked every AD hes approached not to divulge any contact. If the guy can get flight tracker to not log his flight plan, anything is possible. Right now pretty much every coach that has been mentioned on this board is still in play with the exception of Turner Gill.

The AD would say "no comment" instead of lying to the fans, unless he is a total classless AD.

Radio stations are not rated right now, and haven't been since Friday, and won't be until early January.

So the answer to that would be no.

Or maybe he was given info that was not fully accurate...

According to KCCI, Chris Petersen of Boise State is not going anywhere. LINK

I still do not like for anyone to be told to 'pipe down'.

This is a message board, as long as family friendly, opinions can be exchanged.

Then there's still hope for Ditka!!!

Great....then we don't have to pay the buy-out either....whats not to be excited about

I'm afraid I don't do much "piping." :skeptical:

I dont think Ken was trying to tell you or anyone here to shut up and just sits on your hands until this thing is over. He's being a lot more rational than 99 of the people that have been on here for the last 6 days. Our emotions dont need to fluctuate like the stock market.

Calm down, sorry maybe that's to harsh in your fragile state. I meant the principles in the search nothing more.

I don't see how Pollard can be on the Stoops trail this early.

As cycloneworld mentioned in another thread, Pollard poked fun at Auburn for hiring a 5-19 HC. Stoops has a little better record, but it's by no means good.

IMO, hiring Stoops would appear that JP settled - based on his presser comments (there are others, the coaching record item is just one of the examples).

And I just can't see Jamie Pollard settling this early into the search.

 

[cybsball20]

Jon,
have you talked to anyone with Arizona's Scout site about Stoops? I talked to a friend down there and he didn't have much good to say about him from a personal and PR (Booster Club, Media) standpoint, not to mention coaching... The AZ fans that have come here seem to think we would be doing them a favor taking him off their hands...

Well Marty is now an ISU fan so anything is possable.
