I’m 99.9% sure - based on a conversation by people that would know - that Vigen isn’t going to Wazzu.

I’m told he addressed the team last night and is taking the Wazzu job. Not sure if/when he’ll address the media.
What the heck is going on!? 0.1% is a tiny margin of error, sir.
Ya, no doubt..... is Tom messing with us?


Great time to be a BOBCAT!

Not at all surprised.

I think he'd be a fool not to take that job while he has the chance.
Next year may not have the same opportunity, the pay is great and the expectation is not that high in Pullman. Moscow/Pullman is also a great place to live.
Disagree on some of that. As was pointed out in another thread, there are a lot of reasons why WSU is NOT a good fit for him. Honestly I think he could do way better. Also, Moscow/Pullman area..... ugh. Granted, it's not Cheney, but it's not Bozeman.

Some people would consider "not Bozeman" to be a good thing these days with all the changes and growth happening there. Not trying to start an argument here, but it definitely isn't for everyone.

Although Bozeman is much different than 10-15 years ago, IMO Bozeman and SW Montana is way, way nicer than Pullman and eastern Washington. Not even close.

Heard from whom?


Don't let this distract you from the fact that the griz blew a 22-0 lead.

If he doesn’t leave this year, it will be soon enough. I’m pretty sure he’s looking to coach FBS ball for $1.5 million a season to start and then retire back to Bozeman with much more money in 15 years of he wants. COL in Pullman alone makes this a great move, even if it only lasts 4 years.

Keep in mind that I said, "I'm told..." I also posted that I was told that there's no way he'd take the Wazzu job. Soo...

Were you also told he wasn't going to coach in Frisco? That just seems ridiculous to me if that were true but, ugh..... not a big fan of all the speculation and rumors.

I'm now told that the person that had this info misheard. Wow! My bad all the way!!! I take full blame. I almost didn't say anything, should have stuck with my instinct on that one. I'm put myself in timeout for the rest of the day.

That's it Tom. When I see you in person I'm only buying your second beer. You can get the first round on your own!
