Casper newspaper is now confirming Bohl to Wyoming.

Apple Valley won, but Crandall had 23.

Per Izzo, Wyoming has called a 6 PM press conference for tomorrow.

The fact that WDAY can't get ahold of Bohl says a lot.

I can think of worse timing for a coach to leave.

I just figured we'd see something like "Report: Bohl to Wyoming" which cited the story already on multiple outlets. EDIT: It's now on the Forum site: http://www.inforum.com/event/article/id/420539/

Still no mention of it on the fargo forum site. Probably in denial.

Not if they hire from within.

I would be shocked if NDSU doesn't promote from within. Hopefully that works out as well for them as it did for us.

I suppose it makes perfect sense for him to leave now given the fact that this senior class is going to be impossible to replace. If not now, it may never happen. I just figured it would be for a place like Kansas St.

Just saw that on twitter. If true, that would be a shock. I figured it would take a Big 12 or Big 10 job to get him out of Fargo.

EWU wins 41-17.

EWU up 34-17 early in 4th.

Montana has closed the gap to 7--now 42-35. EWU and SDSU tied at 14.

EWU has taken a 14-7 lead.

EWU and SDSU tied at 7 at the end of the first quarter.

SDSU takes an early 7-0 lead on EWU.

Ugh. Hopefully EWU doesn't lay an egg, too. I'm starting to feel like a Big Ten fan during bowl season.

Any guesses as to when the new coach will be announced? I am guessing one week from today--lucky Friday the 13th.

I feel like Nielson would have been the frontrunner last year.

Starkey seems like a great candidate. I'm quite surprised he's stayed at Concordia-St. Paul for 11 years given his incredible record. Is he just that happy there, or has he been up for other dI jobs in the past but not been hired? EDIT: This article from the Strib a few years ago addresses the question of whether he is interested in a dI job: http://www.startribu.../129275878.html While it would great to land him, it sounds like it might be tough to lure him away from the cities.

Not saying you have to be from this region to recruit it, but if you have no ties to it, count me as skeptical that you are going to be much of an improvement over the outgoing staff recruiting-wise. Personally I think there's almost no chance Faison even seriously considers Pflugrad, but I fully intend to support the decision regardless of who he hires. I just hope the Bollinger skeptics do the same if he is hired.

I feel like recruiting is the key to this rebuilding job. Even disregarding the off the field issues for a moment, what evidence is there that Pflugrad would be able to recruit well in this region? I keep using this example, but look at Lennon at SIU--a new geographical area can completely change whether a coach is perceived to be a good recruiter.

I think Rob is around 62. I have no idea whether he's interested in getting back into coaching in some capacity, but you would think this might be the one situation which may draw him back into it for a few years anyway.
