Stitt interviewing today per Football Scoop

[GrizPony]

If they go with Stitt because he is "clean" then they are idiots. How hard is it to reign in guys that have to have a minimum 30 on their ACT and KNOW they will never play at the next level because it is D2? They know their education is the only thing they will be getting at their school so Stitt having no baggage is expected. Pease has no baggage either and has coached at the highest level for years. If this comes down to eliminating a guy that wasn't always kind and sweet twenty years ago, lord help us.

People do realize when you run offenses like this your D becomes a weak point and gets pushed around? It's tough to buck up against hard noise football when all off season and game week you're going against the spread.

Does it matter when you put up 70?

 

[jcglfer]

Haha good luck with that. Is that why Wyoming sucks so bad? Makes sense.

Cool story, bro. Remember the scoreboard from August?

Because your comment on recruiting was asinine. Scoreboard? I was embarrassed for Wyoming they didn't beat the Griz by more.

You're the one that said, "has he ever had to recruit."

Also, try winning a football game sometime with a 3rd string QB and an OL weighing in around 280lbs.. I'll give you a hint, it doesn't happen often.

You said most coaches don't have to recruit. In what world?

Personally I like my coaches to be an asshole....

No but it usually means that defense travels better, especially late in the year. How many unstoppable spread teams have you seen lose in the playoffs? A bunch.

Bobby had not been a head coach of an eighth grade team when he was hired on at Montana. He was well organized and did a great job at the interview. That was in my opinion a far more risky hire than sir Stitt might be.

I for one would be excited if Stitt gets the job. New offense with a great thinker and innovator. In any event I will be happy to just have a coach! Any of the three will tickle my fancy.

Bobby had many years as an assistant with BCS programs. Important experience. Stitt none.

personally, i like my coaches to win...and relate to and motivate 17-23 year olds. The whole concept of a 'clean' or 'nice guy' is so subjective that it's not worth the time we're giving it. Hire the guy who has the best plan, vision, and coaching ability that aligns with KH's. If none of those apply, well stitt!

This .... over and over.

Being a UW fan, I've learned a lot about Chris Petersen and researched his past. As a disciple of Petersen I'd be thrilled with Pease. Petersen is organized and at BSU and UW has a variety of players...farm boys, inner-city, etc. He knows how to manage the different personalities. Stitt has dealt with choir boy engineers. To me, it comes down to what kind of staff they can put together for the interview. Hurting Pease is his ability to put a staff together, at least on paper, right now...I'm assuming.

 

[kemajic]

Stitt would be a great hire, this guy is a better coach than both Bobby and Pease

You are comparing apples to oranges and have zero evidence to support your statement. He is cheaper.....

Hauck was also the recruiting coordinator at UW!! He was their best recruiter...brought in top 10 classes when he was there.

No stitt, sterlock.

I think most of the cat fans said something along these lines

Believe me he has a staff together and it is solid.

Sounds like a recruiting problem.

Pease was far behind Pflugrad at the last Griz interview. Haslam was involved in that so he is very much in tune with what Pease has or does not have. And of course Haslam knows Hauck very well as they worked side by side while Bobby was the Griz coach.

Bobby did not and does not have the offensive coaching skill that Stitt brings to the table. Same with Pease. We have a good bunch of coaches that in my angry opinion will make good hires for the Griz. Any of the three will be a good thing for the Griz. I know Haslam will make the best choice and I will be happy in any event.

I just want a good coach for Xmas!

Choir boy engineers? lmao......obviously you've not been around engineers to much unless the Colorado breed are different than the Butte types. Some of the smartest, toughest, meanest, motivated people I know are engineers.

That's good to hear!! With Pease background with Petersen, I know he has no "one" offense that he runs...they do a good job of mixing it up. UW had games this year where they just pounded it all game and others where they threw a ton. I just hope he gets his fair shake today.

That was called sarcasm. Learn it, love it. Coaches spend most of their seasons recruiting, probably more than they do game-planning.

You do realize that the defense does not practice against our offense on game week? You realize that they practice against the scout offense that runs the opponents offense? While we are at it, what source did you use to determine that having a good offense causes your D to become a weak point? Please cite your sources.
