Idaho Fires Men's Basketball Coach

It will be interesting to see how the search turns out this time. Last time, they couldn't find anybody interested in the job after they fired Perry, so they wind up promoting his assistant. I would assume Spears knows of at least one outside candidate who'd actually take the job this time.

The Idaho women's coach will be the next one to get it -- he won 4 games this year, and their leading scorer is leaving the team. They lost their outstanding PG Mitchell, the MWAC player of the year, to Utah a couple of years ago.
 
My understanding is Pfeifer had one year left on his contract, and Divilbiss (the women's coach) has 2 years left. For a school which already has one of the lowest athletic budgets in the WAC, that's 3 years worth of salaries they could possibly be paying out. That has to sting.
 
I think Idaho got a good hire!

Utah State's head coach Stew Morrill has another former assistant as a head coach - Randy Rahe, Weber State.

Stew has a great program in Logan, it is sad that we don't see them playing the Bengals each year being so close to Poca.

Stew has lost only 12 home games in the 10 yrs he's been in Logan. Randy Rahe is off to a great start in Ogden. Maybe Idaho will have similar luck.
