I understand that when you've had a coaching tenure go awry that it is customary to wind up as an assistant coach again to shore up where the gaps are, but Ken Bone needs to think better of himself than to do it way down in the big sky conference, especially when there is no need for it.
I would think he would have followed a pattern similar to that of Heath Schroyer, becoming an assistant at a great program like UNLV or New Mexico. Talk about sending oneself back down to the minors. Ouch!
Self-flagellation is never a wise career move. Some element of self-loathing must be involved for him to do this to himself.

Perhaps he's eying the head coaching position at UM given that their last two head coaches are in the Pac-12.

Yes, I hate to admit it. I see how that strategy could work.
But it will take him probably at least three years to get the head coaching job and six years to get hired up to a level comparable to the Pac-12 again. He's 56 now and that would make him 62. Not a terrible age to prove himself and right his ship.
I just hate to see our best coach to date helping dastardly Missoula State. Makes me feel betrayed and abandoned.
Maybe his old protege, Geving, can show his old mentor a thing or two. But it is pretty hard for a single coach to beat what is effectively two head coaches.

Looks like Bone may be on the move again.
