What about John Wristen?

[RuffBuff]

Is he a legitimate candidate?

We can not hire a head coach out of the D-II ranks. We just can't.

As an assistant? Sure, I could get interested in that. But no way should Wristen or Stitt be on our radar as head coach.

 

[SuperiorBuff]

No.

I would be fine with Stitt at the OC position but not a HC. I would go with a strong DC as the head coach and an "exciting" or smart OC.

I am happy for Wristen, but he either needs to move up to FCS, or take a job as a position coach at a BCS conference or coordinator at a mid-major FBS school before he should be considered for a FBS HC job.

What is with the Stitt love. I get he is innovative, but his Mines teams are not that good are they?

Doesn't Wristen have a little, um, baggage?

Is he a legitimate candidate?

If we are missing any potential candidates everyone should please feel free to create a new profile for them, just like in the recruiting forum.

 

[CVilleBuff]

No.

I respect Wristen, but this is the biggest hire in CU history. We simply cannot hire a DII coach.
