Well, to all the Cowboy fans that wanted him, I guess I will say congratulations.
I, however, am truely disappointed. I know that I am probably in the minority but still have a tough time letting go of the last time he was here. Add to the one time that I met the man at a function and unlike what I have heard about how nice he is.. etc. I came away from meeting him as a little disingenuous, cold, and not all about being a true "cowboy" and that has stuck with me for all these years. Not that any of those things make him a good coach or a bad coach or that he knows his X's and O's...etc. And at the time he wasn't a true "Cowboy", obvioulsly, but I hate when my university takes second place to anybody/anything! When his name first came up, I got a sick feeling and have been rooting against that decision with a passion.
But it looks like the deal is going to be made. I hope for my University of Wyoming that it will work this time. However, not that it will effect UW in anyway and will probably hurt me more in the long run, our family has decided that if this thing goes through, we won't be contributing to the CJC any longer. The parking space, seats, etc...... sometimes you just have to go with your gut and after 23 years, enough is enough. Time to spend elsewhere.
I know I might get called a few things and that I am not a true "cowboy" or fan but that's ok.. they are just words. The backers of this decision, I hope he is what you are after!
