not sure I get this one. He seems at least as good as who else would likely be available to them on the market, given that they outscored #3, #4, and #7 in their conference 116-49 in his three games and won the conference title.

I get it. It’s just not exciting for the fan base. It probably keeps the same coaching staff around for the most part while just removing the head coach. There always seems to be some kind of dead cat bounce when a HC gets fired and players rally around the interim.
It’s hard to go with someone else after the 3 game stretch that he had, but removing the interim tag just feels uninspiring.
SEC is going to be tougher with OU & Texas then you have those UGA players auditioning for NASCAR on those GA roads.
One to watch
The last time BSU "just" removed the interim tag, they got Chris Petersen while sealing our fate in Hawk futility.
Good coach. I think that's a place you can win, so I think he'll do well.
One of the reasons that Boise has been able to stay consistently near the top of the MWC and among the best G5 teams is that they have developed a culture and a system, not only of playing but of recruiting, developing talent, and filling the coaching staff that works very well for them in their situation.
Most of their coaches over the past couple decades have been hires of guys from within the system and it has worked very well for them. Don't think their fans will be disappointed at all.
Brian Howell moving to Albuquerque to cover New Mexico football is the next logical move here
He would have to leave CU women's Bball behind.
Kansas State is losing a TON. The Big 12 is about to be a feeder league for coaches and players, potentially with the exception of Utah and Colorado (as long as Prime is around)

ATM has an $11 million dollar assistant coaching budget
I’ve said for years now that the priority for resources at CU should be HC/AC salary pools as the rest will take care of itself if you bring in great coaches and players.
The amount of revenue Prime has generated for CU should have them in that $12m-$15m range for HC/AC pool, IMO. It should be the top priority for the football budget.
CFB takes a loss here. Damn good football coach. Wyoming's got some big shoes to fill.
Bronco took that New Mexico gig too soon...this would have been a perfect landing spot for him.
The job was never open, it would appear
If you love your current culture, it only makes sense to hire from within if there's a candidate you believe in.
Does not seem like a good fit for Troy, culturally?
Probably will be at AFA forever but doesn't mean that reminding them that he has other options won't hurt the next time they negotiate a contract extension.
He's a guy who loves coaching and working with his athletes.
Wonder if he just decided that dealing with NIL and the transfer portal and the rest of what is happening in college football was more trouble than it was worth.
