The coaching search equivalent of not being able to take a knee to seal the win?

I still think we get Campbell if we've indeed cancelled other interviews.
No, more like 4th and 2 then sliding one yard short.

Why does this matter? Here is his Bio straight from the link I sent you..


Because somehow, Toledo being willing to give him a pay raise has turned into paying him more than ISU is offering.

People are losing their minds right now.

Whoops, could be a bidding war?

It sounds like JP thought it was locked up. You don't cancel your other interviews unless you are sure you have your man.

I am a little skeptical based on Pollard canceling interviews before the offer was accepted. Why would you do that? You keep interviewing, and drumming up interest.

I don't see us canceling interviews unless Campbell's at least agreed in principle to take the job. I hope I'm right

Nobody is worried about Toledo outpaying him over us, they are making fun of this loser Texa$ reporter who is bashing Campbell for considering ISU.

I remember it as kelly shopping us by saying he needed more time and JP wanted a quicker answer so he cut bait on him.

The rumor I remember is that he wanted the Michigan State job and if he didn't get that he would take the ISU job, but we were going to have to wait a few days until MSU made their announcement. Obviously Kelly didn't get it.

Might as well pull down the "Honor Before Victory" pillar once you make that hire.

We've had about 100 years of honor before finally having some victory, i think itd be ok to have some now.

Iowa State fans upset by my comment Toledo in some ways a better job. Tom Herman and Gene Chizik did nothing at ISU. Left and won NC.


Iowa State shut out Texas 24-0. The Texas program is so bad right now that Brown and Strong cant win there.If I were Mr. Autullo, I'd be asking myself is Toledo a better job than Texas?
