No ill will towards BYU and Dave Rose, but I do enjoy the fact that his last game was a beat down at the hands of my Toreros.
Word is, he's one of the favorites for it. It'll come down to the same things it normally does. One, is he happy at Va Tech and satisfied money wise, just the life there, too? Family ties into that, of course. If he thinks he can win a title as a Hokie, I'm sure that would enter into it as well. I know A&M really wants him, not much more than that. I didn't know he was a native Texan, that might be something he wants to get back to.

He gone.
Gary Parrish had a great point on this one - he said that when Buzz first went to VaTech, he sat down with him and asked why. He was leaving a successful program that loved him and he had had impressive success there (E8, two S16's and only one year where they didn't dance). Buzz told him the same thing that anyone following CU under Tad has experienced - if you hit those heights at a place and are loved, there's only one place to go in the fans mind - down. So he talked about how he kind of liked getting a new start every 5 or so years. Add his Texas background and the fact the Aggies will write a check that just says "$Texas" in the dollar amount and I'm guessing he's gone.
Damn it.
Is he bringing Mike Daum with him? UNLV really has fallen off the map. Good job by Otzelberger cashing in on his success with Daum though.
Has to hurt UNLV even more to see Nevada doing what they are.
Good coach, but I'm disappointed.
I'd seen a couple college hoops writers speculate that Rick Pitino could be in play for that job. It would have been the ultimate fit for a program embracing its DNA to win with no apologies. Too bad it didn't happen.
Certainly can't blame him for taking that promotion. Gonna be tough to win there, but it's hard to imagine that Buffalo hasn't peaked as a program.
If they have any hopes of a PAC 12 invite, they can’t be hiring guys like Pitino. Not that I disagree with you. I think it would have been a great fit, but I get the sense that they still view themselves as a potential expansion candidate and want to clean up their image. Whether they truly are a potential expansion candidate remains to be seen. Their football team needs to get a lot better first.
Damn good hire.
We will see. Took over a pretty established program right? The jump to a P5 is a lot different and Alabama isn't a very good job.
help me out, I"m not getting it. I get the Hall 'n Oates play, but what's the "PAAAWWWWLLLL" reference about?
I was actually going to put it there at first.
I always forget if the reference is about Phyllis, Tammy (RIP), or all callers in general but:

thanks for trying to help, but I'm still not getting it. Neither of those callers stretched out the pronunciation of Finebaum's first name as the tweet's phonetic spelling would suggest. what am I missing here?
Granted the tweet may have thrown in a few extra Ws for emphasis, but the first Paul at the beginning of Tammy’s video definitely sounds elongated to my northern ears (as do the rest of the ‘Paul’s).
Though to be fair, I was looking for a more exaggerated version to post and couldn’t find one quick enough.
ok, making fun of southern
The extended “Paul” from many callers on the Finebaum show is part of the show’s mosaic. It is funny and intriguing when it’s juxtaposed to PF’s straight man personae.
I'm not sure that makes the Pac-12 stronger. Unless we go with Cal becoming mediocre is an improvement. Fox looks like he can deliver mediocrity and have Cal looking at NIT or CBI type seasons.
