Haven't Noticed Wristen's Name Bandied About Here!

[Buffenuf]

What gives? Wristen coached in TEs Boulder and has built a very successful program at CS-Ewe Pueblo, from the ground up and with Colorado kids---meaning he knows his way around the hallways of Colo high schools.

I recall he had a dust-up with his spouse, but that resolved quickly.

Two trips to the D-2 play-offs and regularly ranked, including a couple of #1 rankings. AND, he's beaten Stitt's Mines teams a number of times.

Whats the scoop on him?

 

[Daaah]

The scoop is that he is not nearly a big enough name.

^This.
Would be a great coordinator candidate though, like Stitt.

I'm not sold on Stitt as a BCS level guy yet. I am sold on Wristen as a BCS level D-Coordinator. But it's too important a hire for Bohn to take the risk

I am 98% sure from everything Bohn has said that he is not going to hire a Div. 2 guy as HC. And the coordinators are going to be chosen by the HC more than Bohn

Aaaand....the HC will be the one making the decisions on the coordinators. If Bohn is telling the new HC who to hire as coordinators, the program is truly ****ed.

The scoop is you don't hire a DII coach of CSU-Pueblo for the biggest hire in your program history.

As a staff member, I'm on board. HC? No. Not even worth discussion.

Pueblo is pretty far down I-25
