I wondered if this was coming. We saw with our own eyes and heard from Sawvel that our talent level was lacking. That's pretty damning for the recruiting coordinator.

The North Dakota RB coach is leaving UND and heading to Wyoming according to a newspaper based of North Dakota.

Thanks, Geordie. You brought a lot of good players over the years

We traded Haug to North Dakota for North Dakota’s running backs coach Donnell Kirkwood. Strange indeed.

Kirkwood played at Minnesota while Sawvel coached there so it seems pretty clear Sawvel is trying to bring in more of ‘his guys.’

Can we trade Junior for someone else?

I wouldn't mind trading him for a 7th round pick. J/K

That's our fcs pipeline

Kirkwood gone after 3 month on the job. Takes position at Washington State.

I’m sure he wants to be a part of the G level big time cash cow in the brand name retread conference.

Sawvel roasted his former player turned RB coach for leaving the day before spring ball. Said basically he isn’t getting much of a raise and ‘we are going to talk about people that are relevant to the Wyoming cowboys and not talk about people who aren’t.’

Good luck in Pullman. After two seasons with Group of 100 (or whatever) revenues and depleted PAC cash reserves, WSU will be just another has been and never-will-be-again. The difference is, schools like Wyoming are acclimated to treading water (poorly). WSU and OSU are in for a rough ride.

I can't say I am wishing him much luck personally. As an Assistant Coach, when you accept a job you should at least be committing yourself for that season. To take a position during the normal coaching hiring period and then leave 3 months later the first day of spring practice would make me question his reliability.

Please don't read my post as wishing anything by losses for this clown and WSU. My comment mentioning "good luck" was only meant to show that he will need a lot of fortuitous bounces and luck to find success at WSU going forward. They are in the G-whatever mud with the rest of us and won't like it one bit. WSU and OSU - together with the other PAC traitors - are hoping against hope that they can emerge as a Power conference someday. No matter the polish they put on that turd or the perfume they put on that pig, a turd is a turd and a pig is a pig. Sawvell captured him well in the story and I hope this jackwagon experiences nothing but losing.
