bigcountry said:okay it was just a roumor that he was hired, but they brought in greg peterson yesterday for an interview, im really hoping that we get him, his resume is very inmpessive and i think he could get the offense heading in the right direction, hopefully the offense can finish among the top in the confrence like the deffense did last year with some new coaching.
I haven't heard anything other than there were a lot of people who applied for the position. My concern would be that if you take too long to hire someone, like a Greg Peterson, they will be snapped up by another program. I think this is a critical hire for UNC Football if they are going to turn it around. And IMO, it needs to be someone who's pretty high profile that the team, alumni and the community can get excited about.Bearsfan24 said:Any new news? I know both Darnells profiles have been taken down from UNC's website.

Oh yeh, and were the hell is the Tribune on this stuff? Don't they have any investigative reporters? What a poor excuse for a newspaper.

Where did you see that? And yes, the Tribune sucks. I know no one has been hired but the least they can do is give us a heads up on who's applied

blaine bennett , currently the head coach at central washington. been in that position 1 year, hmmm. has ties with downing to purdue days, hmmm. his father currently coaches the tight ends at cwu with him, hmmm. does this sound a little familiar? easy transition?, family ties? 2 for 1 financial savings?........ ok, i'm good with this. as long as we get him in quickly and start moving forward.
and who knows, at this rate i may qualify as a field reporter for the wonderful greeley tribune. so insiders say,lol

Why would Blain Bennett come here? He was coach of the year in D2. I think it would be great but he's probably making more money at CWU. Not to say your full of it, but I would be surprised if this was true.

I would say the reason he may want to come here is, like most coaches, he's looking for opportunities to move up. I'm sure eventually he wants to become a D1 head coach and this may be a stepping stone to that. I'm sure that money alone is not the motivating factor. If the opportunity is a good one and helps Bennett achieve his goals then the money issue will take care of itself when he does become a D1 head coach. As it is, if UNC combines what they were paying both Darnell's ($85K) then that probably gets pretty close to what he's making as the head coach of a D2 program.Beardown said:I just don't get why Blaine Bennett would want to come here. He's HEAD COACH of a very good CWU team. He's probably making double the amount we would offer here. Not to say your lying, but really????
