Sounds about right....Bohn will continue meddling in the DII Danny Candidate Mill and then try to push them to all of us as a Grand Slam hire...blah blah blah
Nonetheless, Ringo once again is a giant buzzkill
Well, I have mixed feelings. BP is a great coach and CU would be winning some games right away. The two things that concern me are: (1) character, or lack thereof, and (2) the effects of number (1).
If a guy will lie to his wife and mother of his children so he can dip his wick in a twentysomething, then he lie about anything if it suits him. That sort of lack of commitment is what leads him to a different job be every 24 months or so.
I realize pragmatism rules the day now, and everything, including moral standards, are for sale if it "works". BP would win here...but not for very long, he'd be gone as soon as the next bright shiny object came by. But it would be a fun 2-3 years. JMO.

Actually, no.:lol:
He is not the guy you want take over a complete rebuilding job.

I like your line of thinking here. :thumbsup:
I was genuinely excited for about 5 minutes there.

Love to have a winner like Petrino. The leaving Atlanta is a tad bothersome. But as far as lying for what job you're interviewing for..... that is commonplace. No coach will ever admit interest or admit to interviewing publicly if he is coaching another team. He has some personal baggage but as someone said no NCAA infractions just a bad personal choice. I would LOVE to have him but unlikely i'd say

Can you imagine the backlash from the legacy buffs if Petrino is hired. Man that would be interesting.
**** this thread.
Would I want BP here? Sure, if he could coach up the kids and get a recruiting foundation built up before leaving us high and dry. But, now that I've read this whole thing and gone from interested to excited to realistic, there's no way. Bohn won't hire him, he probably wouldn't come anyway, and the more **** like this pops up the more I realize that we're probably going to be underwhelmed with the new hire.

Can't trust him, 2.5 million or so when he'd split in a second. We have to make the right move, stakes couldn't be higher.
Vic is standing by it:
Vic Lombardi @VicLombardi @KyleRingo It's not a rumor Kyle. Bohn clearly denied it, but it's no "rumor".

:nod:
What do our volleyball chicks look like? Any lookers?
could you imagine how fast it would stop when we won 6 games next year?
Whoever the hire is, he won't stack up to a high flying winner who bangs blond coed VB players, so in that respect, yeah, we'll be underwhelmed.

Welcome back
If he were here for a few years with say a Stitt or Stitt-type I would be happy to have him for a limited time.
Bohn is playing the media masterfully imho. Floating tons of names, but no actual details, and I'm betting we've heard little to nothing about the main candidate.
That's what Jessica said....
For the people who think this is a good idea, I point you to a few things:
1. Very system-oriented coach who tends to take defensive recruiting lightly.
2. Complete control freak. Basically controls every aspect of coaching.
3. He will leave CU high and dry. And then we have to deal with points #1 and #2.
