    I fondly remember a great coach at Wisconsin, nicknamed "Badger Bob". Similarly, if Motzko does decide to stay in St. Cloud, "Husky Bob" has sort of a nice ring to it too, don't you think?

      When it comes to Motzko, I'm just thinking of Ann Margaret and Bye-Bye, Birdie!

      We love you, Bobby
      Oh yes we do!
      We love you, Bobby,
      So screw the U!

              So...you seem to think it's a forgone conclusion that Motzko leaves?
              No chance he would tell the U no?
              Really?

                    I love 'here'-ing a good pitch.

                      Nope, I don't think so at all. I am not sure he is even going to be offered, and what the U would offer if he is. And if he is offered, he very well could decide to stay. There certainly are some good reasons to stay.

                      It certainly isn't a foregone conclusion that he'll stay though either. And if he's offered what Lucia was getting, I have a hard time seeing him turning that down. That is a lot of money.

                          Ok, but if they double his pay, the chances he stays at St Cloud are like 5%. If nothing else his wife would probably force him to take the job.

                            Not necessarily.
                            It's not like he's a poorly paid coach.

                                No, we would then take the AF coach.
                                It's not over yet..... I have a feeling SCSU will come back in this one.
