What good would that do if there's nobody available right now? All it would do is cause insecurity in the program and likely lead to a mass exodus of players.

Meet Bobby Kennedy: New Montana football coach brings pedigree, track record of success
According to Ty Gregorak, who lived and coached with Bobby Kennedy when they were both at the University of Washington in the early 2000s, the Griz are “getting a great ball coach.”

And???? So the fuck what? If he’s so great why has he never been an oc? Why has he never been a head coach? It’s not like the guy is in his 20’s. He’s been around coaching for 30 years and no one thought to give him an oc position?
Who said there’s no one available?
Okay give us your short list. And don't put people on there who would never come to Montana, or Montana could never afford.
With the portal and NIL, I don't think you have the luxury of doing that. A search would lead to losing a lot of players.

I totally get not wanting to search for a new head coach in February.

Wait another year until Jeff Choate is fired from Nevada and bring him back to his home state.
No. He talks a good game but all he ever did well was beat the Griz. Absolutely not.

Why the hard-on for Choate? I wouldn't want him as head coach of the Griz.

I like Kennedy but there is no denying that Choate has more experience and probably better connections within Montana. He successfully turned MSU around and built the foundation that won them the championship this season.

This isn't a Kennedy-Choate thing. There are so many better options than Choate.

Who is a better option than Choate when it would come to re establishing recruiting pipelines within Montana?

Ok went to UM Western and is from Northern Idaho. Had 3 years experience establishing recruiting pipelines at the likes of Billings West as MSU’s head coach is the part of his resume that I would be the most interested in.

Does Gregorak still want to coach?
Sure. I would also get not wanting to hand the reins to a guy that is unproven as anything other than a position coach
Last I talked to him about it he did but that was about 5 years ago and his current job pays pretty well

Is that your only possible criteria?
