Not out of the question for one of our coordinators to get poached for Idaho HC

Good for Eck.
I can’t really see losing Vigen to a HC position at this point.

The only FBS jobs still open are Central Michigan, Ohio, and Sam Houston. None of those seem too likely for Vigen but I guess it's always possible.

You gotta think he’s going to be taking some dudes with him, which sucks for Idaho as they have built some good, young talent.
I don’t think Eck managed the game particularly well last night, but overall, I think he’s a really good coach and seems like a good dude.

Have to imagine guys like Dwyer, Afalava and Co. either go with him, or go bigger.

He's very aggressive in his play calling and it sometimes comes back to haunt him. Overall really good coach and New Mexico got a good one

Idaho looked to be the only team bringing back as much talent as the Cats. Now MSU is the unanimous Big Sky #1 next season.

Probably won’t take the kicker that specializes at onside kickoffs.

I would be shocked if Dwyer didn’t become a Lobo.
I bet he goes 1st Team All-MWC if they can get a solid QB.

Corrected my mistake….fat fingers and long drive home fatigue got me.

Jordan Dwyer in the portal too. I bet he goes after McCoy who also is in the portal.

Or Jack Layne, who's also in the portal already according to the Idaho forum.

I think McCoy fits with New Mexico level of football. Jack Layne I think is a good FCS qb but not great. But we will see how it plays out!
