UND99 Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 Well it ain't gonna be Craig Bohl. He's reportedly heading to Wyoming.
UND92,96 Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 Well it ain't gonna be Craig Bohl. He's reportedly heading to Wyoming. 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.
SIOUXFAN97 Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 with bohl now gone and und probably naming our hc first i guess we will be able to call the ac's new hc our leftovers?
andtheHomeoftheSIOUX!! Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 The Bohl news is unbelievable. wow
82SiouxGuy Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 I'm going to say there is no way we'll know on Tuesday. I am guessing three finalists are named on Wednesday, with the new coach introduced Friday morning, in time for an appearance at Sioux Boosters that afternoon. No chance at all that we know on Tuesday. The applications are being taken until 5 and that wouldn't allow time to go through the University process. It's possible that we could know by Friday, but it may not happen until some time the following week. It will probably depend on how many quality applicants they get and if any of them are involved with teams that are still playing (might have trouble arranging interviews before the end of the week). My guess is the 17th or 18th.
UND99 Posted December 8, 2013 Author Posted December 8, 2013 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. Agreed. Seems like everyone thought that it would take a job at a BCS power school for him to leave NDSU. Timing seems absolutely horrible as they gear up for a run at the 3-peat. However, perhaps it will be a rallying point as their outstanding SR class and head coach wind down their NDSU careers.
Let'sGoHawks! Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 So will Bohl coach NDSUs next playoff game or is he gone?

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.
choyt3 Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 Faison better have his crap together is all I can say. Going to have to do some fast talking if this is indeed true regarding Bohl. Undoubtedly will be competition for candidates. Starting to see bizarro posts on Twitter, including this one: Marcus Williams #⃣1⃣ (@TheRealMarcWill) 12/7/13, 8:41 PM Tell me this isn't true
UND-FB-FAN Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 http://mweb.cbssports.com/ncaaf/writer/bruce-feldman/24368098/wyoming-lands-bohl-as-new-head-coach Money talks. Like I said earlier, it's very possible both UND and NDSU would have new coaches in 2014. That now will be the case. The turning of the tides begins now. Pflugrad to UND still? maybe?
choyt3 Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 So will Bohl coach NDSUs next playoff game or is he gone? Seems like Gene Taylor has that "don't let the door hit ya" kind of attitude. Bisonville will likely implode.

Hopefully that works out as well for them as it did for us.
sioux24/7 Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 So will they have to go through a month long process too?
UND92,96 Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 So will they have to go through a month long process too? Not if they hire from within.
dmksioux Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 Hmmm, don't we have a game against Wyoming in a couple years?
petey23 Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 I would be shocked if NDSU doesn't promote from within. Hopefully that works out as well for them as it did for us. That may be the silver lining for NDSU if there is one in losing a great football coach like Bohl. If he had went to Minnesota or Nebraska or other big name school in the Midwest, Kliemann would have probably went with him.....Wyoming might not be as desirable for him vs. being head coach at NDSU.
Hayduke Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 That is shocking. Seriously, Wyoming? Hope it's true. That'll put a big ol' smile on Pistol Pete's face!
RD17 Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 Faison better have his crap together is all I can say. Going to have to do some fast talking if this is indeed true regarding Bohl. Undoubtedly will be competition for candidates. Starting to see bizarro posts on Twitter, including this one: Why would their be competition for candidates? NDSU is going to have to promote from within, especially if they advance to the championship game again. What will be interesting to see is if Bohl cherry picks the staff on his way out of Fargo. Could create quite a big distraction for the team. I'm not a NDSU fan obviously but it's too bad that the players on these teams get put in the middle of these situations.

Well, I hope all that money keeps Bohl warm because he'll be freezing his butt off AND losing at a pace he is not used to. Wyoming chews up and spits out coaches. I honestly wouldn't have taken that job, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens.
choyt3 Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 That is shocking. Seriously, Wyoming? Laramie, Fargo... Laramie, Fargo... If you're not from ND, not much debate there. Back when I worked in Wyoming in the mid 90's, football at Wyoming was like a scaled down version of Nebraska. I want to say Joe Tiller was the coach then, but not bothering to look it up. Similar to NE, everything shut down during football Saturdays. I can see making that move, especially if he has an agent that is gauging the realistic possibility of moving to a Big XII job and it doesn't look like it's there.
bincitysioux Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 Considering what Bohl has built and accomplished in Fargo, this seems like a lateral move at best. Perhaps he feels he has a better shot at landing BCS job if he spends some time at an FBS school? I'm sure he receiving a hefty pay increase, but seriously, Wyoming?

If he can fix that defense, the offense can light it up. He could do well in the MWC for a year, maybe two, before Bo gets the axe.
jdub27 Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 Hopefully GT hasn't already commissioned that statue of Bohl yet. Yikes. I guess all that talk of B1G or Big 12 jobs being the only way he'd leave were a little overstated. I'm surprised myself.

Would think they name an interim from within to finish the year, as a coaching search during the playoff run would be next to impossible. I just think the candidate pool would be very similar at each school.
