Fowler article

[MileHighCowboy]

From CBS Sports Jeremy Fowler:

* Continue to hear industry buzz that the Wyoming job is Jeff Tedford's to lose, but Tedford is in Hawaii this week so it's uncertain when or if he'll interview. As @coachingsearch points out, Tedford might want to wait and see what develops, especially if Tim DeRuyter leaves Fresno. Wyoming recently told a prospective candidate that the school is interviewing three candidates. I'm told Colorado School of Mines coach Bob Stitt, who was interested in the job, will not be part of that process. History shows great offensive minds come from unlikely places. Just check Gus Malzahn from the high school ranks and Chip Kelly from New Hampshire. But Stitt -- whose no-huddle spread attack has been studied by Kevin Sumiln, Dana Holgorsen and more -- can't get FBS looks. Maybe his first play is as an OC somewhere.

Here's the whole article:

I honestly highly doubt we land Tedford. This internet giddiness over him is way too premature. I have a feeling we go with Gilmore.

It was a huge mistake to not include Bob Stitt in the process IMO. I am almost positive that he will make us look foolish in the future if he ever decides to make the leap to FBS (i.e. accepting a coordinator position).

I think Burman is in a tough place. Tedford has little reason to rush. He can sit in Hawaii, take it easy....and wait to see how the pieces fall into play. Is Burman willing to gamble, wait, and hope he's still available? Hard to say. Next few weeks will get interesting.

Wait patiently, and either nab the big prize or strike out swinging? Or make a hire sooner and let Tedford play his games with someone else? This is where Burman earns his salary.....

If Bob Stitt is indeed interested in the job, Burman should not snuff him for an interview. He may have something interesting to say - he might be a hidden gem in the rough. We do this with recruits all of the time. I find it disappointing that we wouldn't at least take a look....

I don't think we have a few weeks to wait. We can't afford to be held hostage by one potential hire.

We don't have anyone in position to fire Burman because....we fired him. Haha.

That is my feeling, give Tedford a very nice offer and give him a deadline. If he chooses to accept great, if not then on to the next.
