His recruiting had a few bright spots, but that was on O, not D.

So again, if you don't like Bohl, fine, but don't pretend DC was ever going to get us where you want us to be (consistent bowl games, challenging for a conference title, etc.).

Lol see the funny thing here is that you think I think DC is a good coach.
didn't say that.
Probably haven't said that since his 3rd year at wyo where he won mwc coach of the year.

I haven't called him a good coach.
Just a better coach than Bohl.
Bowls and winning % will back me up.
If you ever need to laugh, just remember there was some idiot who wanted Bohl fired after 2 seasons.

Gotta throw the bullsh-t flag on this one, Beaver Boy. You were a DC apologist, and probably still are.

Right now, you (and quite a few posters on here) are acting like a bunch of 16-year-old girls. I didn't know grown men could be such a whiny emotional bunch.

As for whether or not DC was a better head coach than Bohl is, we don't know jack sh-t at this point. DC had five years with some pretty good talent on the shelf when he got here. In five years, we'll be able to assess Bohl in the proper light. I will say this- ask 50 FBS head coaches who the better coach is- Bohl or Dickface, and I'd bet more than 40 of them pick Bohl at this point, even with the last season-and-a-third.

In the meantime I'd suggest, if you're just going to be another chicken little a whopping 16 games into Bohl's career as an FBS HC, to Keep Calm and Shut the F--k Up.

Fair enough, but it seems that you would prefer DC to Bohl. And if we are in a vacuum and those are the only choices, fine, your opinion. I however, have put DC in the rear view mirror. He wasn't going to get us where we want to be, so having him still here wouldn't solve the problem.

Would he have won a few games this year? Maybe. But Bohl is changing everything with the end goal of being a better program than we could have been with DC. Will it work, obviously that remains to be seen. I am confident that the next few years will not be as bad as this year will turn out to be. How far will we climb is the real question. Will it be back to 4-6 win seasons, or will it be contending for conference titles? Guess we'll have to wait and see, because one thing is for sure: unless he quits or does something really stupid/illegal, Craig Bohl will be UW's head coach for at least the next 3 years.

For the life of me I can't figure out why we can't get both sides working.

Joe Glenn Defense and DC Offense = pretty solid MWC team.

I may have missed some. This doesn't even mention the graduate assistants, video, and academic support people.
So, it's like I said, you either get on the coaching carousel and you never get off, or we had good asst coaches. Hell, good asst coaches and players that went on to play various levels of pro ball, yet DC still couldn't even piece together a .500 record. He's a bigger mess than I thought. But he's probably at the right level now for his ability. And let's not forget Matt Rahl, who has surpassed his old boss, with an Offensive Coordinator position : )

Classic, POTD!

On your last point though - he pocketed that poop. He has to build up the "f-word-you money" account he has at Wyoming State Bank. Speaking of which, I need to work on my f-word-you money account as well.
Dear Karma,

I have a list of people you missed...

If any possibility, no matter how remote, gives me the absolute shudders over why we're under-performing so badly, this is it.

Whatever, he still decided to punt against TCU down 11 with 2:01 to play in 2011. Punting from own 48 with 10:00 to play, eh maybe that was too early to get desperate, I will buy that, but we were in a good spot on the field to take a chance. But with 2:01 WTH?, why not fling it up and try to get a cheap one, and follow that with an onside, and another miracle? Crazier thing have happened. Even under his watch down in San Diego. It not over until its over. At 2:01 punting isn't even trying. I know Smith was hurt, but at least try for the last 2:01.

These comments got me blasted back then and may again. I still don't understand it. $ on the spread? who knows?

Why do I have to login three times this is crazy!

anyway I wasn't completed with my thought process before and I had to run. there is the tiniest chance he felt punting and hoping for a fumble was our best chance of winning, but I'd rather try to do something to win than hope for them to mess up. It was raining that day so maybe he was hoping for a slippery football. I would've been trying for a touchdown two-point conversion on sidekick in a field goal if it were me.

So there is the tiniest chance he felt punting at 2:01 in 2011 gave us the best chance to win but that day it sure felt like giving up rather than trying to win.

TCU 31, Wyo 20.

PS. I doubt that was Mrs C.
