All Rhoads lead to Wisconsin.

man. did wisconsin really just run off bielema? he became a head coach at 36. seven years in the big 10. three championships. overall record of 68-24 and conf record of 37-19. wow. will be interesting to see what happens in the next seven years up there.

[ChiComCat]

I can't imagine an SEC team possibly would, but please hire Prince.

Rhoads going anywhere would be a fantastic ISU meltdown, but I would like to keep his 3 annual conference wins in Ames

And you gotta figure, being the hand picked successor of Alvarez, he had a great relationship with the AD

Unless the AD wants to coach again. He is coaching the rose bowl after all.

Apologies if Luke'd, but this is absurdly entertaining.

I think thats more as an F you to Bielema for leaving than him wanting to coach again, but who knows.

That was fun.

I do know of a coach who would take the job.  His name rhymes with Don Fence. 

[michigancat]

do you guys  not  remember when altman got introduced? 

no, they don't. because that was the best thing ever.

That would be Currie's guy, right?  So, how awesome is it now that Currie is adamantly opposed to hiring someone from the ultra successful Hayden Fry/LHC Bill Snyder/Barry Alvarez coaching tree?

Dave Hart is who Tennessee chose instead of Currie, when Currie was after the Tennessee AD job.

The University of Tennessee named Dave Hart vice chancellor and director of athletics on Sept. 5, 2011.

Hart, who was the director of athletics at Florida State University for 12 years from 1995-2007, previously served as Executive Director of Athletics at the University of Alabama, where he led day-to-day operations of the department

I see.  I wonder how that relates to Currie's unfavorable view of the Snyder coaching tree.

[michigancat]

Also, I can see Beliema wanting to leave. You only have so much goodwill from fans as a coach, and it's maximized when you're first hired. (sys had a good post about it). I mean, you go to three Rose Bowls in a row and all of a sudden a Rose Bowl doesn't get you as much goodwill as it used to.

I have a few Wisconsin grad friends, and they all are in agreement that the prevailing thought among the Wisconsin community is that Bielema was on the way down, and he knew it.  "New shot clock" thing.

I missed it if there was something concrete on Currie having an unfavorable view of the Snyder tree per se....just Sean and Leavitt...which we heard from media types who claimed to be in the know.

Butch Jones turned down Colorado.

Butch Jones turned down Colorado.

Good.  They need someone more fun.  Not that they'll get that.

[MakeItRain]

Butch Jones turned down Colorado.

It really would have said a lot about Cincinnati if he went to Colorado, this says a lot more about Colorado.  What a godawful job.

[wes mantooth]

Ron Prince would be perfect for the Colorado job.  Low expectations, smoke weed, driving distance to Hays, etc.

Maybe there is a connection with Charlie Strong turning down Tennessee, then shortly there after Butch Jones turning down Colorado.

@ClayTravisBGID: Volquest.com reports that Bo Pelini has reached out to Tennessee. Nebraska fans rejoice?

Looking to reset his shot clock, see nebraska thread.

i want Bo at NU forever, they deserve each other

i want Bo at NU forever, they deserve each other

I don't know, I could really go for an NU coaching search this late in the game....coupled with the "you're such a horrible school that even Bo Pelini left you" and "Tennessee is a better job than NU" talking points.
