I jokingly told him they can’t take Jay Hill from us. This was a month ago. He would know.

Jay Hill and at least one other MW coach finalists for Utah State head coach

Highly doubt Bronco wants to come back to Utah to coach

Utah state feels like career suicide.

They have had multiple coaches get huge paydays by coaching at USU

That's true but it's in a really really bad spot right now.

It was in a bad spot when Gary Anderson took over the first time

I think nil and BYU and Utah being in the big 12 is really going to hinder usu

That was pre-NIL. Jay will lose good players to BYU, Utah, other P5s every year

I hope Jay Hill is the only name leaked because he is leveraging for a raise.

Doesn't seem like Jay Hill would take that one. Curious on the money.

Without a media deal, they don't really know what they can pay

I can predict that it's not great! There's not much TV space/$ left.

I hope he doesn't take that job. In fact, I hope he doesn't even interview,

If he's a finalist, he has already interviewed.

I wonder if that affected the defense yesterday then

Just give him a big raise and move forward. USU is a dead-end G5 job.

Some SB Nation guy has the scoop on Jay Hill? …. I doubt that.

BYU will pay him more than Utah State will.

I doubt Hill goes there. Probably just a show for some leverage.

Not a big enough step up from Weber St. Wait for something better.

At Weber at least he had a fighting chance to establish a winning program.

Aside from team step down, that admin is a dumpster fire. He should ask the last coach.
