Anyone heard any rumors?
Whoever it is, I hope they have revenge on their mind when we play the 'Yotes next year.

Football Scoop is reporting a strong possibility of current Co-DC Tyler Yelk being named the new HC:

Just a rumor at this point, but it sounds like a strong one:

Thoughts, well he's young. I hope some of the staff will stay and work under him. They are all fairly young, so if we went in house it was going to be a young coach.

So much for the national search committee. I am guessing he must have interviewed well via skype.

At one time, wasn't he listed as the special teams coach? Maybe if he get promoted to HC we'll get a real special teams coach.

If this was a surprise to everyone like it has been to us, we really didn't have a whole lot of time for a national search....

Maybe not.
So, would the budget problems be the reason for no national search or would it be more the time element (didn't want to spill anything during the playoff run, but wanted to try and keep the team from bolting while waiting for a search to be conducted)?
