I have to imagine

Gary Patterson is our top target, but who knows if he’s got the slightest bit of interest.

We're the Buffalo of the big XII

Honestly, Gill would just have another rebuilding project, arguably even worse than Buffalo on his hands. He deserves something better. What about Glen Mason? That’s a top shelf product waiting to be picked.

Eh

Figured it was too good to be true.

If you believe that Patterson really was about to accept the job at K-State before it leaked we might have a shot at him but if it wasn’t true it seems like he’s been saying “no” a lot. TCU isn’t the worst spot to be.

I’m mentally preparing myself for Farley.

To be honest

All the other names don’t really matter too much to me. I’m sure there are some guys our there that would do a good job.

To me, it was Gill vs Everybody else. I personally don’t know enough about coaching trees to know which coordinator should be hired, where they’re from, etc. I just don’t have time to do that, although I wish I did.

At the end of the day, I want someone who is going to care about ISU,the players, and develop the players. We aren’t going to get 5 star recruits, so we need a coach who can develop talent and out-coach the opponents.

I’m behind whoever we hire. I am a huge Pollard fan, and trust in him completley. There just isn’t a name out there now I can get excited about, so now I’m going to be more patient.
