Stoops, a diversion?
- Thread starter jaretac

How ironic would it be if ISU hires another school's head coach (such as Patterson, Hill or Stoops) and then that school in turn hires Turner Gill?
Some Arizona fans are salivating at the idea of hiring Turner Gill...
Scout.com: Stoops to Iowa State. Almost a done deal

Except our AD doesn't have a sac and won't listen to want the fans/boosters want
Its playing out that if Stoops is entertaining a move or using this as leverage, he can go his merry way.
He is liked as a citizen, but as a coach many WILDCATS faithful want him gone.

I think the rumor of a possible introduction at the basketball game is out the door.
Please be wrong
There will be a blow-up, or rather a meltdown if this is true. If Stoops is the coach, JP must have missed on his top 5 to 6 coaches, and went with what he views as a "safe" pick. I would have preferred a riskier candidate.

Why would Stoops be 5th or 6th on JP's list? There's a lot of plusses with Stoops and I would have him 3rd after Patterson and Gill. I would not be enthused about an older coach looking to haul in some extra millions to coast into the sunset.
So we have been here the last week, and all we keep hearing is we need a head coach, not a oc or dc and there is now talk of hiring a hc (stoops) and we are throwing a fit, Whomever it is I will support the Cyclones!
Part of the problem is that most of us think we can do better than Stoops. The other problem that I have, is Stoops has shown that he can rebuild a program to bowl eligibility and thats all.
Most of us think that with the right coach, we could be bowling next year. We need someone that can take us from bowl eligible team to a conference contender. Stoops hasn't shown he can do that, but some of the other names that have been mentioned have.
You saying Jon Miller is Marty's "source"? Nobody said it was a ISU donor? Maybe JM said I have a big ISU boner and Marty thought he said donor.

Obviously just my opinion but I think we only go after Stoops if we could not get:
1. Patterson
2. Gill
3. Air Force HC
4. Cubit at West. Mich.
5. Wilson (OC at OK)
6. L. Tech HC
7. Hill
I would even through in coaches like Fullmer and Barrnett on the same level as Stoops.

What part?
I don't mind criticism, but tell me why you think I'm wrong. I think less of people who make posts like this then I do of those who tear apart my every word. I would expect more from a fellow Washingtonian.:no:
I dunno, but methinks Arizona fans are going to be upset by the time this thing is over (and that means they're not losing their coach).
The later. Not through ISU people, but a coach he asked to be part of his staff. One thing I have learned though is... is it literally ain't over until it's over. JP, could easily pull it if someone "better" comes along, or if MS gets called to the carpet before tomorrow's game. DI football is crazy how things happens!!! Plan on Chuck Long as OC too. DC will be his bro, not Elliot, from what I am hearing.
