Bye Brent and Molly enjoy Washington proud of you.
I don’t think Brent and Molly read this message board. I’m sure you have his number. Why don’t you just call him up?
lets just go visit him at Four Corners :)

Good news everyone, I flew out of the Bozeman airport this morning and did not see a single Bobcat player wandering around the terminal telling random strangers that Vigen is leaving for WSU.
Dude on Reddit probably talked to a hobo in a cat jersey.
Told him we better recruit Johnny Manziel

Once again, the guy who is posting that has in his bio that he's a troll account.

Not that I trust this post any more than the previous one, but IF that was the salary he was offered, he really shouldn’t take it. Vigen could probably double that at a much more stable program in a year or so.

Lots of rumors floating around today about Wazzu waiting to announce their coach in January, and that it’s very likely Vigen will be taking that job.

Brint Whalberg and Shaun Rainey re-tweeting a tweet from a known troll account. Wouldn’t take much from it…plus why would they meet in Vegas to discuss an offer?
Never even saw their re-tweets. Yea, that account is an absolute joke and it’s I’m surprised Brint fell for that one, Shaun doesn’t surprise me though

I double checked and they both reposted the one from the same account. There’s also a thread on Reddit,some guy started saying he was talking to Bobcat players at the airport and they told him Vigen was taking the job. Seems suspect to me.
What were Bobcats players doing at the airport? Did we have a road game I am not aware of?

I think if we hear nothing before the NC game that means Vigen is gone and potentially a good number of our top players, Wazzu doesn't have the funds to lure a P4 Coordinator.

Great, now the FBS is poaching our players to be head coaches.

Agree. If WSU does not announce anything in the next couple of weeks, it is probably Vigen.

If that is the case, Leon will know about it beforehand and will hit the road running. This job is more attractive than it ever has been.

I believe Vigen is happy at MSU so WSU will need to make a very attractive offer.

If it happens, next man up, meaning Bobby

Hopefully Leon and folks are paying attention. Maybe we can retain him and staff if we add a little more pay to sweeten the deal of staying here. I guy can dream can’t he. Haha!!

Let’s just win the Natty and then whatever. Vigen deserves the opportunity and I’ll leave it to him to decide if it’s a worthwhile one. He could have been the head coach at NDSU but held out for a better job at THE MONTANA STATE UNIVERSITY. Wouldn’t be the first time that he was patient enough to improve his situation.

You’re an idiot. Let him decide…..we the fans make this decision. People are going to read this and think I am being serious. You know I love you man!! Hope we can dance on the 50 yard line together in Frisco!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

Hasn’t been any announcements made internally (at least to the position coaches), but everyone is speculating that this could be a likely scenario….


Vigen is my all time favorite Montana State Head Coach.

This is too cryptic to mean anything. Aside from fans and online sources, some troll accounts, who is everyone? Also, how do you know, about position coaches not in the know? Not doubting you, however, there is not much substance to this.

If we could get 20,000 fans to donate plasma and give $100.00 a month for 6 months, that would be $12 million dollars. This money could go towards all coaches salaries, assistant and position coaches salaries, athletic department salaries…..we could than keep coaches and others on staff that we all really like.

I have inside information, that position coaches have no inside information. lol

They are asking themselves many of the same questions we are debating on the forum. Think Vigen and the higher ups are doing a GREAT job of not making this a distraction. 1-0 baby!

I see where Bobby signed a new contract over the hill. I believe his new salary is above Vigens. Maybe Brent is using that, plus the interest from other schools to renegotiate his contract with Leon. Wouldn’t it make since that Vigens should be at least on par with Bobby’s?
