I am hearing he was let go.
Why on god's green earth would he be let go? Unless he literally punched someone in the face...

I agree that this is complete BS.

Let's hold off on judgement on this as we have no idea what happened (myself included). Choate has always heaped praise on Gregorak. I don't think there is any truth to the narrative that he was let go due to performance.

We will all hear about the details when Coach Choate (or Gregorak himself) decides to let us know. He runs a really tight ship when it comes to this sort of information.

Correct. And if we know anything about Choate he is very calculated and deliberate, and he doesn't do something unless there's a damn good reason for it.

I was really good at Tecmo Bowl back in about '91, especially on defense. I'm sure that's the kind of experience they're after. I'm gonna throw my hat in the ring.

Rumor is that CB coach Mark Orphey left yesterday. Maybe that's why we have been hearing about Joey Thomas.

Understand Orphey took a position with Utah State. I am sure that is a nice increase in pay. Congratulations Mark! The job posting that some people mentioned is for that position and not the DC.

Bobcat Football twitter page just started following Erik Frazier who is the current Wide Receiver Coach for Western Illinois.

Here is his twitter page: https://twitter.com/CoachEFraz.
Here is his WIU bio: https://goleathernecks.com/coaches.aspx ... h=football

Usually the Bobcat Football twitter page follows people/players who the Cats are interested in.

NAU now has an opening for a secondary coach. Hope we got JT locked up.

Why would he be interested in making the lateral move? Would it really be a higher profile or more money?

Never know, could be anything. Could be better money but could be that he wants to be in Montana or likes the coaching staff or the trajectory of the program or the scope of the job or the better potential connections or snow in April or the Pickle Barrel.
