Report: T.J. Otzelberger headed for Iowa State

[Clonehomer]

Looks like TJ was the anointed one. No real search. His buddy Pollard hooked it up.

Well, it could have been that the search started in January and a decision was made before ISU and Prohm decided to part ways yesterday.

 

[casey1973]

Surprised? Do you live under a cave? For what it’s worth, Prohm wanted to be here as well.

Yes I am. He wanted the job earlier and didn't get it.......

 

[ForbinsAscynt]

Let’s Go!!!! TJ will do BIG THINGS at ISU

 

[brianhos]

Yeah not buying this yet.

 

[Drew0311]

If it works we hit gold. Guy wants to be here, his wife is a Cyclone. If it does not work, we wasted another four or five years. I’m all in with TJ now if this report is true. Let’s get behind him and support him like we always do

 

[JM4CY]

Yeah not buying this yet.

You don’t trust the Las Vegas media??

 

[Cycl0nepower]

Yes I am. He wanted the job earlier and didn't get it.......

Leath blocked it. Leath isn’t president anymore.

 

[Clonehomer]

So are we going to have to wait a few days for this to be official with Iowa's minimum job posting time, or is that no longer a thing?

 

[dahliaclone]

Not saying it’s not true but I find it very suspect that literally no major sports talking head or publication is confirming this. Not one.

 

[Cyched]

You don’t trust the Las Vegas media??

Like they have an agenda or anything

 

[jsb]

Yeah not buying this yet.

I'm not sure why, this has been hinted at for years.

 

[hoopitup]

Great recruiter that struggles with X’s and O’s...will his buyout be $5 million too?

$3 million

 

[Tornado man]

Huge risk for Pollard - I don't get it with so many other options out there.

 

[JP4CY]

Great, I was tracking the Ames airport and TJ rode that em effing Allegiant straight to DSM.

 

[Cycl0nepower]

Damn, already...

 

[DSMCy]

A lot of respect lost for JP

 

[LarryISU]

This seems like nothing but speculation. Surely this will take longer than this. With Fred, it was who we wanted and what he wanted. This time, JP surely will reach out to everyone he can consider a candidate.

 

[dahliaclone]

Did anyone actually listen to Pollard today? Until he or the AD say it don’t believe it. There is NO WAY he lets this news leak by the ******* Vegas paper.

 

[CoachHines3]

no this doesn’t look bad at all

wtf man

 

[jsb]

$3 million

Again, I bet UNLV doesn't make us pay his buyout. I bet they are relieved, if not thrilled.
