And if we don't get Diaco, it's Aaron Kromer. Am I the only one bothered by this? I would prefer lower tier college guys than Kromer.

Agreed. Wisco is a great job with a lot of cash (and should be damn good situation next year), but I think we are too far along with Diaco at this point for UW to intervene (also because he wouldn't be their top candidate).

BCWest {l Wrote}:Great source says Roman never interviewed, never got a call. This probably really is Diaco and then others. With Wisconsin opening up, we need Bates to wrap this up now.

How is "not in the mix" equal to BC not being interested in Golden??? And 100% of what you are complaining about is simply a combination of facts gleamed exclusively from endless rumors, many of which may not be credible, and many of which may have been ultimately sourced from persons with a reason to lie (ie agents). Who the fuck knows who was interested, and who BC was interested in. The only known will be the man who sits at the mike next to BB. Nothing else will matter.

I think we've learned over the past seven years that process matters a lot.

So with all the possible NFL assistants out there, some with BC ties, and some with recent meaningful college experience, like a Roman, how is it that Bates decided instead to consider an NFL position coach with no recent college experience, whose candidacy runs somewhat contrary to the criteria that Bates spelled out on numerous occasions, that is a guy with proven (head) coaching (and presumable college) experience other than his connection via Miami???? Does being the interim head at NO after their fiasco give him the HC experience that Bates advertised? Maybe....but it would be an off the charts choice, and yes, I think it would hurt the perception of the program and the AD, and fan interest in the football program in the short run.

Personally, I think the recruiting responsibilities of the hire is right up their in importance when you are looking at the chasm that BC is in....pulling a relative "no name" with no recent college experience from the NFL ranks is a huge gamble at a place like BC in our current depressed situation. So I gotta' question why this guy qualifies as a good choice when viewed in relation to the other names mentioned. In the college world of living rooms (i.e. of recruiting), the name Golden or Diaco certainly has more cache than the name Kromer.

Tom Coughlin didn't. Nor did Jags. People are literally just throwing shit at the wall right now.

Edit: Recent college coaching experience, not BC connection. I don't think the BC connection should be that big of a deal breaker.

Wisco is a GREAT job. But, don't you think they can pretty much grab ANYONE they want? I'm thinking that Golden would be an incredibly good fit for them.

And Pitt will have their third head coach in three seasons? Yikes. Not sure Chryst can leave after one year, especially after what Todd Graham did to them. I wouldn't be surprised if Chryst had a hefty buyout clause due to that situation.
