I assume, being in the Pac 10, he brings offense to the table like Jamie wanted. I honestly don't know.

Grow up. Seriously. Who the hell cares if the guy used to be a Hawk. All of us sure didn't mind hiring Gill and he was an ex-Husker. What the hell is the difference?

Rattled your cage, I guess.

Unfortunately, my article last night about ISU needing a coach and not a name was a direct reference to Stoops and the numerous rumors that he is at the top of the list for JP. I don't know if I would categorize them as being in negotiations yet, but I do know that he is very high on the list of those being rumored.

He is a defensive mind just like Chizzle was. His O-cordinator however seems to be the offensive guy..he was at Texas Tech in 05-06 when Tech started to use the spread offensive a lot more than anyone else.

I dont know, while I think Stoops has the right character and attitude..I just wonder why they havent improved. Dont get me wrong they are going to a bowl game. But I have been to the U of Arizona campus, and if you cant consitantly pull in 4-5 star recruits..you are doing something wrong.

Maybe it IS a Stoops, but not Mike.

Maybe it's Bob.

How would THAT play across the state :biglaugh::biglaugh::biglaugh:

I care. The hawks are hated rivals. This is Cyclone FANATIC. Grow up, seriously---let other people have their own reasons.

Their commit list is full of 2 and 3 stars along with a couple 4 stars. Doesn't look much different than what we normally get.

I can't get fired up about Stoops and I don't believe he will be the hire.

Another smokescreen IMO (Norvell part two).

I'm going to reserve judgment until we hire whoever and then we get from Pollard why he was his guy.

Do I think there are better, more proven prospects than Stoops? Yes. (See Gary Patterson)

While Stoops was under some fire this year, he does have some nice wins against some pretty good teams in past years in that conference. Remember, Mangino and Pinkel were all on rather warms seats until they started winning...
