Three unattached sources with direct knowledge of the opening confirmed that former Montana head coach Bobby Hauck and former Montana quarterback Brent Pease have already been in direct contact with Haslam about the position.
An independent source said that Kevin Kane, the defensive coordinator at Northern Illinois, will apply for the job.
I would say that they have been good, but not great. UM fans seem to expect great and I don't blame them. That is what they have had up until recently. However, it's not as easy as they seem to think it is. This is the perfect time for MSU to step up and take control of the local recruiting. UM has dominated the state for too long. Let's see what UM can do when they actually have a little competition for the top players in Montana. In fact, maybe it's time that we all started recruiting that state a little more. UM is finding out what life is like for the rest of the BSC when it comes to recruiting. If you play by the rules, unlike Bobby, you have to work really hard at recruiting.N.OgdenCat said:Stitt's offense has been potent, but his defense has been like a colander. Too bad for him, he is one of the good guys in college football. Montana wasn't bad during his tenure, they just weren't very good.
MSU pretty much does own the state in recruiting right now, Montana Players on 2017 roster. MSU 49 um 25. There has only been a couple in the last few years that we offered and we didn't get. Stitt said some things that didn't sit well with MT HS coaches.oldrunner said:I would say that they have been good, but not great. UM fans seem to expect great and I don't blame them.

I don't think firing Stitt will be the answer for UM. The slide started before his arrival.

Please don't bring back that A-Hole Hauck.

I can´t even believe that Hauck is even getting consideration, let alone an interview. Any respect I had for Montana is completely gone now. How can they seriously be considering this after all of the crap that went on with him there? The culture he brought literally helped bring in a culture of violence and entitlement and it lead to a federal investigation. It´s weird they have the mindset of "Hey it doesn´t matter we were winning!" I would never want that at Weber St, we may complain about Rahe on the basketball side not accomplishing more than we´d like but, I´ll take the type of person he brings in to the community any day over wins with thugs.

Exactly. Hauck's biggest offense was simply being a dick. Not a whole lot more than that.
