fightingsioux4life Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Wyoming will announce North Dakota State's Craig Bohl Sunday as its new head coach, a source told CBS Sports. http://www.cbssports...-new-head-coach Looks like it is for real.

UND92,96 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 http://www.cbssports...-new-head-coach Looks like it is for real. Still no mention of it on the fargo forum site. Probably in denial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MafiaMan Posted December 8, 2013 Share 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? A lateral move? War Memorial Stadium seats almost 30,000 fans and Wyoming is an FBS program. Bohl could have stayed in Fargo forever or move on up to the next challenge. It appears he is ready for something else.

Hammersmith Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Still no mention of it on the forum site. Probably in denial. Trying to confirm. So far, everything leads back to a single source: the CBS reporter Bruce Feldman. It's probably real, but they want a second source before publishing.

Hayduke Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 A lateral move? War Memorial Stadium seats almost 30,000 fans and Wyoming is an FBS program. Bohl could have stayed in Fargo forever or move on up to the next challenge. It appears he is ready for something else. He'll make over $1,000,000.....vs. $200,000. Definitely not a lateral move.

jodcon Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Doesn't sound like the players knew this was coming. Christianson's base salary was $190k, I'm sure Bohl will get more than that, probably hoping for one more stepping stone into a very good job.

Hallstrom and Izzo saying if true he won't coach through the playoffs..... That's tweets now from the two best players on his team. Izzo keeps adding the "if true" in his tweets. McFeely has added a little "Wyoming looking at a move to the Big XII" angle. http://kfgo.com/blogs/so-many-opinions-so-little-time/953/breaking-report-says-bohl-takes-wyoming-job/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UND-FB-FAN Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 All players are surprised. NDSU faithful don't believe it - they believe CBS source is mistaken. However, Bohl not commenting when asked directly by McFeely is quite telling. Anyway you look at it, this is good for UND and bad for NDSU. NDSU being in the middle of a playoff run makes this especially troubling for NDSU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homer Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Which assistants does he take with him. I'm guessing his D coordinator, possibly Vigen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christianson's base salary was $190k, I'm sure Bohl will get more than that, probably hoping for one more stepping stone into a very good job. And with bonuses was $1.2M. McFeely wrote CB with bonuses was about $330K. That's significant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, everything goes back to the CBS report. There aren't three media sources, just one story being repeated. Looks like Izzo, Kolpack and the others couldn't get anyone on the record and are going with it anyway. Maybe they got off the record confirmation from someone..

CAS4127 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 And Bisonville has crashed. Hope NDSU had solid contract in place to prevent taking assistants during season. Kliemen would be great HC. Oh, Bohl makes upwards of $500k, with base in $$250k range from what I understand. This will be interesting. I won't believe it til it is official. If it is, I can't believe Bohl would not have told his players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the Forum or KFGO would run with this if they weren't sure it was true. Imagine how much egg they would have on their faces if it turns out to be a hoax. CBS isn't "The Onion".

Somewhat agree but if Bohl is saying no comment instead of denying it when directly asked is pretty telling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UND-FB-FAN Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Supposedly, Bohl hadn't even notified Gene Taylor as of this afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
