My soccer team went undefeated through Division 5 this year after losing only 2 last season and going undefeated the year before in Division 6.
You know how much I brag about this? :rofl:
That's the funniest thing? Of everything in the entire world, that's the funniest thing?2011BisonAlumni said:
Seriously though, this has already been discussed recently in another thread. If you were a Wyoming fan who frequents this board, you would have known that. So your ignorance is expected and forgiven. If Bohl leaves, more power to him. One thing I can absolutely guarantee is that he's not looking for the first P5 conference job offer and jumping at it. There are many P5 programs that would probably like to have him, but many of them are as big of a mess or moreso than what he walked into here.
Now, if he takes us to the MWC title and Nebraska were to offer him (they won't, but if they did), we'd not only throw him a going away party, but a bunch of us would help him pack house.

In regards to the OP, I'm a bit in the same boat. After last year, I couldn't fathom what was building. I stated a few weeks back, I have full trust in this staff and am just enjoying the ride from here on out. Even more proud of the University than normal today! And, since I'm in an extra good mood (albeit hungover), I have to give Burman some props for the hire and yesterday's groundbreaking. He's got a lot of work to do in my opinion, but damn it's great to be a Cowboy fan today!

I could be wrong but I don't think Bohl is going anywhere for awhile. I say that only because he truly seems to love Wyoming on a personal level. It fits him personally and if that makes him happy, then I doubt he goes some place he doesn't have the same feelings for. He has the chance to be the big dog of the MWC and with the new facilities upgrades, he will find things much nicer at Wyoming than some lower level P5 job.
He just isn't going to take any P5 job. He had other options deemed better than Wyoming while in Fargo but he stuck around that place for longer than many figured until the Wyoming job came open. I think there are only a handful of jobs that seem natural fits for him. I think B1G West jobs like Nebraska, Minnesota, Iowa and Wisconsin fit the bill but what of those jobs will be come open in the near future? None! I could see him possibly at Kansas State after Bill Snyder retires but outside of that, I don't see any jobs that fit his perceived profile. Please don't say places like Purdue, that just don't seem like a good fit at all. Tiller had connections to Purdue.

Aren't they 6-2? And would they go for a coach who is approaching 60? Would any P5 program? This is why I think Bohl sticks around.joshvanklomp said:

Outside of Nebraska, Minnesota is pretty much the only other place I worry he'd leave Wyoming for. Don't know if the timing is right for him to make the move now though.JimmyDimes said:
And while Minnesota has a good record, they struggled to beat an awful Rutgers program. There is a definite negative perception around here about the program right now. I think there might be greater than a 50/50 chance there's a coaching change depending on how they finish the year, and Bohl has enough regional name prestige that I think he might be considered for the job like he was in 2007. Which would suck.

I thought it was funny when the Bison got housed by South Dakota State a couple weeks ago.

Minnesota is 6-2, so Claeys isn't going anywhere (more likely to get an extension). Sure things may not be pretty when they win but they are winning none the less (that can be said for many good B1G programs). Minnesota fans can't get to greedy in expecting a better "staff" than what they have now.
Again, I just don't see any good fit for Bohl to leave Wyoming outside of possibly Kansas State in the near future.

This seems like you are basing your comments on a lack of information.
While I would not be surprised to see Coach Bohl take another job if the right situation presents itself, I do not believe that the University of Wyoming ever approached "one of the worst FBS programs(sic) of all times.
In all fairness, we at Wyoming do understand some of the resentment you must feel toward the program that your own iconic coach moved on to. We have been down that road way too many times ourselves. Personally, I still cannot find it in myself to wish success for any team Dennis Erickson coaches.

Seriously. Stanard has been awesome. He's done a great job, especially considering the loss of Granderson. Color me surprised. Kudoslaxwyo said:

So?joshvanklomp said:
Why not throw money at a younger coach like PJ Fleck? Who knows, maybe Bohl might be pursuaded with a lot of cash. Funny thing is many of the struggling P5 programs aren't a rich as many think.
Time will tell.
Go Pokes!!!
