This loss changes nothing for Boise State. Gives them national respect. Jeanty keeps his street cred. Now just win the games you're supposed to win.
Same as we always thought!
Can confirm, through multiple sources, that Kellen Moore & Andy Avalos have high interest in
#BoiseState
job. Both families on board. Both have interviewed. Process has included Chris Petersen, per sources. I expect one to be hired this week. More details Sunday in

Steve Young just said on KTIK, in regards to Kellen Moore: "He needs to be a future coach at BYU.''
In all seriousness, I've heard that Kellen spent a ton of time with the BYU football program this offseason. He's put down some home roots in the state of Utah.

is developing plans to aggressively market RB Ashton Jeanty this offseason, including an official
#Heisman
campaign that will feature this logo.
@BroncoSportsFB
Gloria Nevarez and the Mountain West need to be aggressive ... right now!!! ... in going after WSU and OSU. They will fight it. They will scream. They have no leverage. Everybody is trying to better themselves ... this is MW's only way to get better. Start chasing. Now!!!
NOW ON KTIK: Legendary Paul J. Schneider announces official retirement from his iconic
#BoiseState
broadcasting career. This will be the first BSU football season since 1967 that Paul J. will not work a game/pre-/post-game broadcast.
Will never be replaced.
Forever A Legend!!!!!
Best news of 2024 - so far!!!!
BREAKING:

A headline/graphic a long time in the making. Stunning day in Boise, a great day for

athletics. It's a strong move, even with P12 warts.
Like a football team playing hard/aggressive on Saturdays, this is a power play to stay relevant, make cash. More details to come!
Sobering email from BSU: "If campus infection rates continue to increase, we likely will face temporary, rolling closures, which may mean ... delaying or canceling large gatherings, performances and athletic events, and temporarily returning to remote work."
Please vaccinate!!!!
Biggest reason I appreciate/can relate to Dirk Koetter. Dude scores 56 points, launches a Heisman campaign, watches his OL dominate, wins the season opener ... and shows up grumpy at his Monday press conference.

@BroncoSportsFB
Fresno State can have all the gaudy defensive stats. BSU's defense leads the nation in injuries ... guts ... heart ... moxey ... and late-game execution!!!!!
BSU stops FSU on 4th down ... and will win this game after one of the most impressive second halves in program history!
Might be the most impressive 10-win season in school history. Sometimes ugly can be beautiful. Boise State won ugly this season ... and that's OK.

Great moment for

fans, and no one here feels sorry for

, but I wanted UCF to win. Every game. And to meet BSU in the Cotton Bowl. To shut up that annoying athletic department/loudmouth fans. Still could happen, I suppose ...
For now, BSU celebrates!
Instant reaction ...
-Where's UNLV in this process?
-Would OreSt, WashSt, BSU, SDSU, ColoSt, Fresno (and two more) have access to CFP in 2026/beyond?
-Who's paying the multi-millions in exit/poaching fees?
-What happens to the rest of the Mountain West?
-Who does MW chase?
So many things to love about

-SoFi/NFL stadium
-P5 opponent
-Chip Kelly
-A Saturday night
-Network TV (ABC)
-Winnable game
-Not the Arizona Bowl
And, of course, Gronk!!
OK ... I'm game for a QB change. It's time for Taylen Green - but only if Dirk Koetter takes over as OC.
He worked wonders with Jameis Winston in 2016 - one of his best seasons in the NFL.
Not interested in a Green-Plough combo - not any better than what we're seeing now.
Sad news ... Longtime Boise State booster and Downtown Boise business owner (McU Sports) Rich Urresti has passed away. He was 79 ... Rich was a great dude, a smart/loyal BSU fan and enjoyed life more than most. He used to give me a lot of shit ... and I miss him already.

-Back half of defense is soft
-Why didn't Hawkins warn us about Plough/Keane?
-Hard to see Jeanty and Green on the sideline
-Avalos 30 minutes away from matching Houston Nutt lowpoints

athletics working extra hard today to make things right after last night's debacle by ExtraMile Arena.
Dickey and Tromp were/are pro-students.
For anyone who thought otherwise, and shredded those two without proper info, you owe them and BSU athletics an apology.
I get it, money always matters. SEC prestige always helps. But you're not always building a career by constantly changing jobs every 1-2 seasons. I really hope Bush Hamdan stays - this roster deserves him as their coach.

NCAA committee member Bubba Cunningham just told CBS that the Mountain West didn't have enough impressive wins outside of conference play. Most good wins came against league teams, he said. "Made it more challenging for us," he said.
