Missouri OC Dave Christensen to become Wyoming’s head coach

Posted by HenryJames on November 30th, 2008 under Football

According to ESPN.

Christensen flew to Wyoming with his wife Saturday night after Missouri lost to Kansas in Kansas City. He arrived in Laramie via a University of Wyoming private plane. He spent the night in Laramie and met with school officials. He returned to Columbia on Sunday to attend a Missouri senior banquet but is expected back for the press conference.

And at some point I suppose he’ll pull a game plan out of his ass for Oklahoma.

    MU just switched places with NU next year in the North. Wyoming had also been looking at Ted Gilmore, the Nebraska receivers coach.

    He still has to face Muschamp next year.

    I would like to point out that ESPN is, as usual, acting like bitches.

  5. Greg Davis gets passed over, again.

  6. It occured to me at the A&M game that Davis has made like $4 million to do what he’s done here. That’s depressing.

  7. Wyoming fans believe there is no way in hell Texas will show up in Laramie. They are expecting Texas to pay to move the game to Austin.

    Lets see 36,000 tickets in Laramie, vs 98,000 in Austin for twice the price . . .

    “Wyoming fans believe there is no way in hell Texas will show up in Laramie. They are expecting Texas to pay to move the game to Austin.”

    I heard Wyoming was thinking about moving the game to Denver to sell more tickets.

    But it doesn’t make sense to me for Texas to agree to a 2-for-1 and then try to buy the third one… unless that was the only way to get them to agree in the first place.

    Anyone else wondering what a University of Wyoming private plain looks like? Their tax base is smaller than Texas’ 2nd Congressional District.

    Let’s not kid ourselves, Ripley. Aside from teams based out of Watts, no one in the Pac 10 really plays defense.

    It would’ve been better if the injuries had been more evenly spread out, HJ. On defense, we’ve got some very talented depth we’re simply not taking advantage of. LB Ronnell Lewis is a name you’re going to remember come 2011. Dezmon Briscoe already can’t forget it. At DE, we’ve got RJ

    @ballrific: On the contrary, I think Boom is much more subtle here at Mack’s request. He’s probably put a Deathwatch clock on his wall to remind him that there is hope. 680 days, 13 hours, 17 minutes, and 41 seconds until Greg Davis’ career dies.

    I can realize his flaws but also admit that I wouldn’t take anyone other than Mack as our head coach.

    That’s at the opposite end of the spectrum from irrational criticism, and is an equally flawed position. Somewhere in between the two is the Golden Mean.

    Honestly, I have no problem with this. First, I was overwhelmingly pleased with Blount dropping a Falcon Punch on some random Boise State jackass. Second, after the honorable Brandon Spikes, who knows dirty play when he sees it, attempted to eye-gouge some random Georgia jackass and only got a one-game suspension against

    Take a look at our injury list, and tell me we’re not paying for 2000 when not one of our starters missed a single game. The following players have missed at least one game.

    QB – Sam Bradford

    TE – Jermaine Gresham

    DE – Auston English

    OL/TE – Brody Eldridge

    RB -DeMarco Murray

    OL – Brian Simmons

    Intentional irony like this seems rare in Mack’s repertoire.

    Do any other instances come to mind?

    srr, I said “bad fit” before, and I’m more convinced than ever.

    If RR were to have a 10-win season, he’d still be disliked. You know it doesn’t bother me to see Michigan struggle, but he’s gotta go.

    Three things come to mind when Mack Brown comes up as a coach.

    First, he’s turned Texas into a recruiting juggernaut. I would argue the success he has had through his last 100 games has just as much to do with the talent he’s brought to the 40 acres as his coaching.

    I think they have too – just haven’t seen that emotion in a while (can’t even remember the last Fist Pump).

    I was thinking about special teams too. Fairly streamlined assignments there.

    I don’t know if the coaches would feel comfortable giving him too many snaps on D in a national title game given his absence all year.
