A BOOM from a Montana State coach generally means they have received a commitment or signed a new player. I have been looking but have found nothing yet. It would be nice if it was the Girl out of Utah

Agreed. That’s who first came to mind. It’s not a coach, as they have the full number of those. Given that it is a player, the boom and the comment would indicate someone very compelling. We have some really good players, and to say the team just got better — wow, this must be for real. I hope it is another super player, because the team is operating at a level that I think will attract players to the great school that would have never given us a look a few years ago.

Love the energy in this program! A boom could mean a lot of things. New player, upgrade in the program, game with UConn next season! I’m sure we’ll find out soon enough! The BSC is getting better everyday and we’re going to see some improvements in a lot of teams including the lady Griz! The difference in winning and losing, won’t be in BOOMS, but the grind of the weight room and summer ball. We’re going to have a target on our back for every game. Going to be a very interesting year for the Bobcats!

It is a player, someone Binford is very happy to get, just do not know for 100% who it is

I didn't think we had any open spots? Does this mean someone else is leaving?

Would not be completely shocked if coach Petrino filled this spot.

Hmmm. The only absolute constant K = Change. I thought Geoff was really going to pay off in the next year or two. Now we’re stocking up two of our rivals. Good assistants are supposed to move out and away, not come back to haunt you.

You could always start a fund. I would contribute to it.

They already have one: It's called the Quarterback Club for Football and there is a similar club for Basketball. These clubs contribute to assistant coaches pay (at least the QBC does).

Fast Break Club for WBB.

6th Man Club for MBB.

Don’t know if they contribute to assistant bonuses or not but they do provide substantial support to programs and players.

Getting away from BOOM thread a bit...but Mattio hire is interesting for UNC...and she is obviously already in “build mode”.

If you read about her teams as head coach at DII West Texas A&M, she went 154-35 (if I did math right), she had multiple coach of year honors, teams consistently ranked in Top25 of DII, multiple NCAA DII tourney trips making Elite 8 one time, a lot of comments about academic performance including one year with team achieving a 3.5 GPA. Interesting that Madison Kast who redshirted for Bobcats plays there and Sydney Stensgaard who is leaving this year was headed to play for Mattio...wonder if Sydney continues on to West Texas A&M or follows Mattio to UNC.

On paper, the Mattio hire appears to be another good coach added to the conference which will continue to make the Big Sky a more competitive conference.
