"Belichick interviewed this week for the head coaching job at North Carolina, Inside North Carolina reported Thursday.

The six-time Super Bowl champion coach is said to be one of several candidates the school has spoken with since it fired Mack Brown on Nov. 26."

I think Vigan would be a great fit at UNM. That would be a great place to bring his staff, his sons and a great place to live.

At first thought, I didn't think he'd take that job, but going from a $217k base salary to $1.2M per year is a no-brainer.

Yeah, no crime in Albuquerque.

Yeah, no crime in Albuquerque.

Hey, Albuquerque is absolutely fantastic.

As long as you live in Edgewood.

Someone want to explain to me how so many Griz fans have gone from mocking the Vigen hire as the 3rd choice or whatever to actively cheering for him to get hired away from Bozeman?

Andy Thompson leaving Sac St to join the Stanford staff.

Andy Thompson leaving Sac St to join the Stanford staff.

Stanford huh? I saw he was leaving but it didn't say where he was going

I certainly don't care if he stays. He's shown he can't win in Missoula, and I don't think you guys are gonna be as scary on offense without Tommy.

That said, anyone would be deluding themselves if they said he didn't deserve to get looks at the next level.

Is that enough validation from one Griz fan for you? lol

Will a mil salary afford a house there?

Stanford DC.

29-1 Big Sky record outside of Missoula 0-2 in Missoula.

 

[Griz til I die]

Stanford DC.

So who's next at SAC?

 

[armonte]

Ever since he got the job did not think he was a head coach.

It's weird to me that anytime I say anything critical of the Griz or complementary of the Cats, you do this thing about validation.

I say it every time you care (see: get really mad) about what we think of your team.

Did you forget where you are? I know that you aren't new here.

If Vigen hits all his incentives this year, he'll bring in $650k-ish. As of now, he's well above the $217k minimum.

Does UNM not have incentives in the contract? If they do, then he'd earn more than $1.2M there, too.

I'm sure they do. I think Vigen's better positioned to earn a higher percentage of available incentives at MSU than UNM. I think that makes remaining FCS palatable.

If, however, the only thing Vigen cares about is money then yeah, leaving MSU is an easy choice.
