I posted this on another thread. Likely Maturi will have to release the names of "finalists" for the job. It's likely they'll release two names, one being the hire and the other being a coordinator from somewhere who nobody will be mad at for trying for a promotion. Chryst may be that coordinator.

You wouldn't want to release the name of a head coach who was a finalist but didn't get the offer because it undermines his credibility at his current gig.

Bingo. Not likely, he has to through the Data Practices Act. Correct, no current head coach wants to be publicly named as the runner-up.
 




Two things right now that are keeping Chryst from being a head coach.

1. He hates recruiting......he makes fewer trips on the trail than Joe Pa.

2. He really comes off as a grumpy guy and not very media friendly. I think his next step will probably be O coordinator in the NFL.

Only in Minnesota do people care where the next coach comes from. If this guy can help us win football games, I don't care if he is from the Taliban. If he is a competitive guy (which he has to be to coach big time football), he will want to beat B squared everytime and shove it in his face - even if they are friends.

I don't know enough about him to say he is the best guy, but he is very highly regarded and he makes around $300k. Give him 1.5 and he'll throw that red and white sweater away in a hurry. SKI U MAH!!

Hey, I'm not completely against him being hired if that's the case. I'm just saying, I would rather have success without a former Badger than have success with a former Badger. Otherwise I'll have to hear from all my Badger "friends" (I grew up in WI, and my in-laws are from WI) how it has to take a Badger to help the Gophers.

And I'd hate to see my team's HC embrace the enemy in red from the East.
 

All things being equal, I don't want another Wisconsin guy. Why are so many people hung up on the "Wisconsin Model"? Many programs turn themselves around every year. What about the Mizzou model or something? The more Maturi tries to replicate what he was a part of at Wisconsin with the Alvarez hire / program turnaround, the less flexible he becomes and the more likely he'll try to jam a square peg in a round hole. IMO

Can you explain to me what the "Wisconsin model" of football is?
 



The Wisconsin model involves be attracted to dead people and dead animals. The people in Wisconsin may believe this is the norm since they go through life completely intoxicated. For me, I do not get a woody when I see a dead deer on the side of the road.

Go Gophers !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought it had something to do with winning......or at least not losing to teams from the Dakotas
