Kent Haslam...Rookie

He handled this great. I talked to him at the UM Davidson game and he knew his decision and so did multiple others. He would not stop talking about the direction he sees UM going

Then why hasn't is been offered....seem your statement and Haslams in the Missoulian are a little different
 
This rookie put a ring through the noses of all egriz little piggies and is leading them around and into a frenzy. I suspect he is at this moment changing the name of his boat to "Suck My Wake".

What a great analogy. :clap: (It still doesn't make it easier... It only becomes easier when we are in control and we are not.)

I don't know why people are down on Kent. Where has he ever indicated who would be the next head coach? Where did he ever say it would be anytime other than hopefully just before Christmas when he made the announcement? Most of the speculation has been on this board. I personally think it is kind of funny that the Missoulian comes out with Stitt as head coach and almost instantly are forced to retract the story. Not atypical of their credibility. Kent will get this done and will do it right. That we are not involved is just fine with me. Would I like to know more? You bet! I am as guilty as the next guy hoping for some inside information on this hire and keep searching this site and many other with no answers other than speculation.

If our government, military and spy agencies could keep inside information as quiet as this and stop all the sources of leaks that they have the media outlets would have nothing to write about to force their own agenda on us. What a great thought that would be!!! Maybe we need a campaign KENT FOR SECRETARY OF DEFENSE or KENT FOR CIA DIRECTOR. :lol:

He has no experience with torture. Wait, the present selection process may qualify.
 
KH has done a great job in his short time as AD. I am confident he will make the right hire and forsee a time when all the anxiety ridden hand wringers on egriz lament his leaving us for more lucrative jobs.

The posts over "the hire" for the most part are entertaining!

High anxiety!

KH is doing an excellent job. It's not his fault that people are spreading rumors and leaking flawed information to the media.

Many of you are just mad at him the way my son gets mad at me when I won't let him open his Christmas presents early. I for one hope he takes the time he needs to make the right choice and doesn't fold under the pressure of obsessive fans to rush a decision. You'll get your damn present and life will be OK...

do you have any facts to support your premise, how about A fact? or are you just going to engage in name calling? if thats all you got thats good with me. I can go there too.
 
Whats humorous to me is the same guys screaming Haslam is incompetent, is taking too much time, etc etc... Are the some guys screaming we need an experienced successful coach from the FCS or FBS. Has it occurred to these geniuses that the successful experienced FBS and FCS coaches are still involved with an active season. You know, deep play off runs bowl games things that successful coaches can do after the losers hang it up for the season.

I suppose a coach could bail on their team or announce they are leaving at this point. Not sure we want one that did, but its possible.........

Polar bears are white. There's a fact. Probably the most accurate fact that has been posted on here about KH and the coaching search. Now, go up stairs and clean your room...

Comical thread. Kent is doing great. No one posts "finalist" for high profile jobs like this to protect the candidates. It is common sense.

:thumb: I know for a FACT that KH is trying his hardest to do what's right for The University of Montana and it's football team and at the same time protecting the integrity of those interested in the head coaching job.

Polar bears and KH's job performance are unrelated facts. Before I go upstairs and clean my room you need to butter your ass for the reaming you are going to get when mom gets home.

They are very related. I have on very good authority that the bear was drinking a coca cola and wearing sunglasses. Apparently one of our top candidates was ALSO drinking a coca cola and wearing sunglasses when KH leaked to the media that he was maybe probably not being considered for the job... The Ukrainian milk subsidy lobby and the NSA are also heavily involved in all of this. I'm reluctant to get into it. It's a matter of national security and I want to protect my source...
 
The blunders being made here are simply by someone that is inexperienced, which does not mean he is not good for the Grizzlies. I could care less about the time line, as that was not the issue(s) that have come out of this.

-- Beau Baldwin situation
-- Brent Peace, non rescheduling because of fog issue
-- Not getting back to interested coaches
-- Bobby Hauck, was he ever truly a candidate from school's perspective
-- the Bob Stitt mess, what a national embarrassment, unfortunately the AD is the one in news this morning, denying the story.

What I was saying is get out in front of the rumors, don't let them fester. Despite what some believe, the majority of college football opening do have published lists as to who the candidates are. Hell, we had one for our school president hiring.

IMO the magical anointing of KH prematurely is ironic considering one was handed to him, and now this. His fault? No, but the administration has blundered on this. He is not going anywhere quickly as so many stated, which is good for us actually - because he is going to be very very good, once he matures in his job. Much of this is caused by those with "insider" information...but thats an entire subject on its own.

Not me.....I've no problem with time line. Problem with the process. And btw my top 3 are Lubick, Stitt and Wristen.....not one of them an experienced coach from FCS or FBS...well maybe Lubick, but he's probably going to end up at CSU.
 
I hesitate to point out everything you are pointing out is an eGriz 'thing". And of course eGriz is taken so seriously by the rest of the world. Nobody would ever think that egriz is anything more than a bunch of guys having their own Hen Party talking about what they love.

What the public is seeing is very normal, whats happening here is a typical eGrizz shit storm.

I like your list BTW.

These are largely non-issues.
