I’m in the minority, but I don’t believe Vigen is the new OSU coach. I think they go “flashy” and go for the Alabama guy.


I love the Bobcats and the Miami Hurricanes an unhealthy level

Welp... I doubt that some rich dude from Eugene came to Bozeman for a quick lunch at the Rock'N R...
Huh. Almost like there’s a place near Bozeman that the rich folk like to frolic in. Nahhhhh. That makes way too much sense!
I didn't even think that post needed a response.....
You’re probably right. I’m frustrated with the amount of stupidity and “sky is falling” attitude that I’m seeing lately.

Haha. Reading that post, I rolled my eyes so hard, the person in the next office came over to ask what that noise was!

I'm with you both. Whether he leaves or not the sky is not falling, has not fallen, and will not fall. This program is in a position for the next head coach to pick it up and run with it, whenever that takes place. I happen to think they're going to hire Sheppard but we'll be fine either way.

It’s because people love living in Fargo year around. No way Corvallis or Fort Collins or Bozeman can compete with that. 🤣 They probably offered to pay his heat bill for life. 🥶

Absolutely. And the sooner people realize that whether Vigen gets this job or not, he’s going to be gone sometime in the near future, the better.

MSU will be fine. You’d have to be a pretty awful coach to screw up what they have going on here. This doesn’t mean I don’t think Vigen is a great coach, I really believe he is, I just strongly believe the program is far more than one coach.

Glad to see you all agree! That's kind of what I said in my original post, yet you just quoted the sarcastic joke I lead with. #-o Thanks guys for making me look like a dunce :lol: I guess I learned my lesson. Let's go win that Title! F*** the Bison!

We all know that it’s inevitable that he’s going move along and upward. It’s the timing that is the screaming sh!ts

The timing isn't going to change either.

The vast majority of coaching jobs that are going to have interest in Vigen are going to be available during the playoff season, and we're always going to be in the playoffs.

Does NDSU even have enough money to do that?

The flight just crossed the Montana border. Someone in Bozeman with a good pair of binoculars get to the airport and report back to BN.
BN has an intelligence network that would rival the CIA.

Vigen has just made a statement on Instagram, he's staying for now? My respect for him grows even further!
