So UM really wants their classless jerk back?

[Cataholic]

I’m PRAYING he’s hired back. It’s a different conference than it was the last time he was here.

Every built in advantage um has has been significantly diminished. Missoula is a trash school headed for the scrap heap and their football program is the last thing they have. Not a single leader at that dump can manage a check book.

That, and nobody’s scared of a coach whose record at his last stop was 15-49. I cannot wait for the moment a 15-49 coach tries big dicking anyone, especially a student journalist.

It took me awhile, but I finally recognize Hauck for what he is - a pro wrestling personality.

Here’s to Hauck.

My preference would be Brent Pease, but Hauck is a close second. He hasn't been a head coach for awhile and that usually means schools are not interested. In 5 seasons at UNLV, he had 4 seasons of only 2 wins.

I cannot believe that UM is even considering this hire. From a PR perspective, the school is finally putting the bad press of past years in the rear view mirror. Now that the school is struggling with enrollment and finances, what do they do: They bring back the guy who largely created the "football entitlement" culture of the past they were trying to escape. This has to be a courtesy interview for the benefit of some big donors. If he is hired, it shows just how desperate the program is.

How many coaches, in the past 50 years, have returned to a team they previously coached? I can only think of one. Bill Snyder at Kansas State. He didn’t coach elsewhere. He came back out of retirement.

Bobby Petrino at Louisville.
John Robinson at USC.
Dennis Erickson at Idaho.
Mike Reilly at Oregon State.

I have grown to respect many of your posts, but these examples do not bode well for Hauck.

Petrino - Needed serious career revival after Arkansas. Ends up coming back to Louisville as one of his few major coaching options. Good coach, but sketchy character.
John Robinson - Comes back to USC after two really bad seasons as the Rams head coach. Never attained the same success as the past and ends up at UNLV.
Erickson - Took the Idaho job after major failures in the NFL. Lasted one season and headed for greener pastures in the Pac 12.
Mike Riley - Came back to Oregon State after failing in the NFL. Lasted many seasons at OSU but left for greener pastures at Nebraska where he was just fired.

None of these coaches went back to an FCS school. All of them were on career rival, just like Hauck. Schools are not flocking to Hauck with job offers.

Thanks. And I agree with you that none of the examples above are stellar success stories. I concede that up front.

You guys are hilarious. Choate is just Hauck light. [emoji38]

How so? I've never heard Choate be anything but respectful towards the griz, Stitt, um, etc.

I think you're already justifying having a D-bag for a coach.

The least they could do is play Western and Northern , keep
the money in the state.

However, it is MSU Northern and UM Western. If they beat Northern, they'd count it in their record against the Cats just like the count the old NAIA wins. If they beat Western, they would be playing with and beating themselves... Wait, can I say that?

At least give the money to Rocky and Carroll..

Man how soon you guys forget. Your cats literally just played both Bryant and Western Oregon 2 seasons ago. Had to be one of the weakest schedules in all of FCS and you guys still went 4-7. If making an easy schedule automatically leads to a winning season, then how did you guys manage to ****** that up so bad too?

Didn't you guys play powerhouse Saint Francis and Mississippi Valley State last year enroute to a 6-5 record? Go away troll. You could go start working on the welcome Beavis home posters. Or does Bobby look more like Buthead? I get them confused.

The thing I don't understand is why the fixation with Hauck? UM has everything needed to attract the best coaching candidates in the country. Our own Jeff Choate was interested in the job 3 years ago. Bringing back Bobby is like asking your ex-wife for a second chance after she cheated on you... all that while having a super model interested in you. It doesn't make sense.

Once again, I can’t dispute or refute you. This (BobcatNation) is a more informed dialog (on average) than the goofball rants over on eGriz. And you guys also possess the rivalry trophy. I’d say you have a good thing going here.

Hiring Hauck back might be like remarrying your ex-wife, but I'm not sure who the 'super model' candidate would be who is clearly better than he is. The only legitimate candidates I've seen mentioned (aside from the pipe dream names thrown out on eGriz) are either at a similar level to Hauck or are in a couple cases substantially less experienced than he is.

[grizatwork]

Of course they want him back. He won. A LOT. The fact that Cat fans hate him proves how good of a job he did. Treating your rival with disrespect is par for the course! I hope he is the griz coach. Choate will kick his ass.

That's not par for the course. Par for the course is having a hatred for your rival, but being a solid person about it. No other coach in football talks about their rival the way Hauck did.

Spurrier did it to everyone. Said you couldn't spell citrus bowl without UT.

You do know SFU made the playoffs last year? Of course you didn't otherwise you wouldn't say something so asinine. Oh wait....

John Robinson went back to USC in the 1990s after coaching there in the late 70s and early 80s.

Very interesting how this voluminous thread is in the Bobcat Football section and not the College Athletics section. Freudian?

Thank you for stopping by BobcatNation to share your thoughts Griz fan

Yeah. It was their ONLY appearance in the FCS playoffs EVER!!! They also come from that powerhouse conference the Northeast which features perrenial powers such as Wagner, Robert Morris and Sacred Heart. Their conference winner this year was undefeated in conference play and NEVER CRACKED THE TOP 25. I know... pretty assinine....

So which one is it, Beavis or Butthead?

This is crazy!! I can’t believe he is even a candidate given his history.

Last year ~ New Coach ~ New System ~ New Culture ~ too many Turn Overs ~ True Freshman QB, who by the way you
Couldn’t contain and whipped your butt . You may have similar pains next year.
This year much better schedule ~ shoulda coulda didn’t win more games ~ still whipped your butt w/ another True
Freshman you couldn’t contain and a couple true freshman DB’s
2018 ~ Should have a faster Offense with better balance and a faster more physical Defense
Going to take you awhile to get Bobby Ball up and running ~ Good Luck and look forward to the Competition.

This will close the deal on MSU owning the state. Hauck had terrible relationships with quite a few Montana high school football coaches, and that won't be remedied over night.

Own the State.

If Hauck is hired is UM accepting that this type of behavior is acceptable? as long as they are winning?

Whoever they pick, MSU will own them. If they want to gamble on Hauck, they get a good coach but also his baggage - which only reflects on the griz program and university. As a griz fan mentioned to me the other day on Hauck, they like the wins but there is already one book on the shelves due to Hauck (his words not mine about Missoula by Krakauer).

I personally like the "character coach" played by Hauck - makes the rivalry interesting.
