Montana Coaching Candidates...

[SuperHornet]

Rob Phenicie

I foresee a fan rebellion if this one happens. Can you say ZERO attendance?

OK, so I'm exaggerating a bit. But one can only imagine the letters of protest that would pour into the school to say the least.

[Monster Griz Fan]

Never hearing the name Rob Phenicie again would be to soon I would not put him in charge of dirty diapers! Don't go away mad Rob, just go AWAY!

[Willie]

Yeah it'd be suicide for the University of Montana to hire Phen Phen as their new head coach.

Heard from a source today that the list is as follows:

MVD
Someone already on the staff

Take it to the bank.

Who they WANT it to be and who it WILL be are probably two different things.

But they have sources too.

Most of the time, and I do say MOST, the sources on eGriz are worse than a Grad student using ask.com as a source on their dissertation.

The base salary is $150 M with no negotiation according to AD Jim O'Day. There is an estimated $90 M avaiable in incentives, media chores, etc. That small number weeds out a lot of the dream candidates. Pretty tight for a program that produces a significant surplus. It's even tighter for assistant allowances.

Why so low?

Like a lot of FCS programs, the football team produces a surplus, but the department is in the red.

Then how in the heck could they afford a move up? They would need to add two sports, 44+ schollies, plus bump salaries.

All that bowl money.

[Gil Dobie]

All that bowl money.

If Montana had only kept that Pac 10 membership card.

Maybe we could resuccitate the old Skyline Conference...

$150 MILLION?!? That's what the capital M means, kemajic.

Try $150K. I think that's the unit you're looking for.

I'm pretty sure that's what he was going for but I was a little stumped on that one myself.

Happy Birthday btw SH.

Montana and BYU are rumored to be headed for the PAC-10(12)

Thanks, Ursus.

What's the connection with these two? I would think that the Pac-10 is satisfied with one private school. And other than '50s era ties with the Northern Pac-10, I really don't see how Montana fits, either. The travel would be about as bad as the SEC, if not the Sun Belt.

eGriz has been rather interesting the last couple of days. Got a guy who came on the board, said he was a former player and that Rob Phenicie actually got over ruled on many of his plays. I don't know if he was a former player or not, but he sure turned some ideas on their head.

Funny, cause now some people are worried Phenicie is actually a good O coordinator and we might lose him.

All I have to say, is that I have no clue who will be a good coach, but I do trust the U of M to make a wise choice.

You, sir, are a shit-stirrer.

SeaGriz, I have said that before and I believe the guys that told me that as they were players also. It happened quite a bit in the first few years but has tapered off the last few. I got tired of arguing with people that sit on the boards or in the stands and think they have a great handle on what's going on so I quite trying to point that out to them. I really love the passion of Griz fans but I get sick of the fucksticks that know how to call a game even though the rest of the week they are crunching numbers in an office.

Bobby over ruled Phenicie and Phen took the heat for a lot of the shit that wasn't his call.

I'm warming up to Phen-Phen.
