Jeramiah Dickey was emotional and sincere while introducing himself as Boise State’s new athletic director at his press conference Monday. He had to win the day, and I think he did.
There’s a supervisor now
Only time well tell, but Boise State appears to have made a solid athletic director hire in Baylor associate vice president for athletics Jeramiah Dickey.
Hurry up and wait
What can we say that hasn’t already been said about the Boise State search for a football coach, especially the Kellen Moore-Andy Avalos angle? We may be biding our time through the weekend.
The ‘Jerry Factor’
There’s a reason they call AT&T Stadium outside Dallas “Jerry World.” It’s kind of Jerry Jones’ world down there. So it figures that the Cowboys owner can be persuasive when he wants to be. Could that apply to Jones’ desire to keep Kellen Moore in Dallas?
Broncos: Two primo choices
This little nugget was uncovered over the weekend by a KTVB collegeaue in an old Scott Slant column from January 24, 2018, almost three years ago. That’s when Kellen Moore transitioned from player to coach with the Dallas Cowboys.
Just like that, an era is over
(TOM SCOTT’S COLUMN WILL RETURN MONDAY.) The first tweet that we know of appeared Tuesday afternoon. “Sources: Auburn is narrowing in on hiring Boise State’s Bryan Harsin as its next head coach. A deal is expected soon,” posted Pete Thamel of Yahoo Sports.
Broncos basketball: These guys are good
One wonders: was the Las Vegas line on Monday night’s Boise State-New Mexico game laid down before or after oddsmakers knew Devonaire Doutrive would still be ineligible for the Broncos?
Spartans a team of destiny
It wasn’t that close. Were it not for four red zone defensive stands, the leg of Jonah Dalmas, and the legs of Avery Williams, there’s no telling what the 34-20 score would have morphed into in the Mountain West championship game Saturday.
Just recover one fumble
Boise State has never seen a season quite like this for turnovers, no matter how many games have been played. Six games in, the Broncos have just three takeaways and zero fumble recoveries.
The next wave of new Broncos
It’s hard to tell what’s really there until they put on Broncos uniforms, but we do know that Boise State’s recruiting class is again rated No. 1 in the Mountain West by 247 Sports (No. 63 in the country).
