Preface: My wife & I do an early Spring bicycle vacation every year, heading someplace warm in February or March to get in some early season miles. We've gone to Ft. Worth three of the past six years and people are awesome there - TCU has surpassed OSU as my second favorite Big XII school.
Having said that, I'm a huge fan of Mark Campbell. He came to prominence as a recruiter at Oregon, then showed he could coach by taking Isnelle Natabou and Sacramento State to a conference title and NCAA Tournament appearance in his second year. TCU snapped him up as likely the hottest young coach in the ranks, and he promptly improved them by 13 games in year #1 (plus he earned WartburgCy's everlasting hatred by virtue of forfeiting to ISU). It's probably a pipe dream, but if CBF should retire following year 30, ISU should do everything possible to add Mark Campbell to Matt Campbell! If other coaches are giving him the "cold shoulder", it's probably because they're jealous. To put a new twist on an old saying, "if you're not finding every possible advantage in a competitive situation, you're not giving it your best effort."
