Welcome back HC Polasek

[BisonDude]

If he brings in his own coordinators, both offensive and defensive, then I won't hate this. If he keeps Tyler and Jason, then, I hate this!

I believe that coaches can be coached too. Tyler could benefit from being around a head coach for the offensive side of the ball for a change. He’s been working for former DC’s here his whole time here. Local guy, former stud player, bleeds green. I hope he does stick around if offered the chance.

Jason…I wouldn’t miss him as much.

It sounds like Tyler is staying (at least for near future) so this really is about as safe/little change of a situation as you could get. If players portal, they probably were going to already.

Honestly, if TR does stick around, I would have to think that would be HUGE for retention of current players/committed recruits. Quinn Alo tweeted out w/"advice" for players who may be upset w/the Polasek hiring, "sit down and talk with Coach P before making any decisions. One thing I learned in one year with him as a coach, he loves this place."

I'm reading between the lines. Cook statement more powerful than Larsen.

Sure could be wrong though. I smell smoke...

I agree....this is how it feels to me as well. Probably a good thing, we need a change there.

Could well be, but I'd rather it be a smooth transition there also. Too much chaos at once isn't good.
Figure out who the next AD will be before having that position sit vacant.

Even as a figurehead, its better to have someone acting in that role imo.

The best news thus far is TR can help transition before he moves on to his next opportunity.

I don't understand all the hate for Matt Larsen, what's the deal ? Can someone please enlighten me ? As for the speculation about Roehl leaving or staying, does anyone know for sure one way or the other ? It would really help I think if he would stay.

this plus a FBS announcement would be the ultimate tri-fecta

I’m really not sure why he would stick around.

It feels to me like a lot of it here is just frustration we aren't fbs. Not sure a new AD can fix that.

Perhaps at Cook's level there could also be disappointment in overall performance of major sports like football and basketball recently. Or boosters may want a change, but this is speculation on my part. The rumors that broke yesterday suggest a change may be pending.

Agree on T Roehl 100%

Petrino improved throughout the year. Roehl has his moments, both great and terrible

Having a head coach who understands Bison offense may help. I suspect Entz was behind the change in offensive philosphy
