So Scalley would have taken the USU job if his contract wasn't made public, but

now that it's publicly known Scalley won't take the USU job?

With USU, we now know why Utah felt it necessary to publicly name Scalley

I could see Scalley asking them to make it public so he stops getting calls

Maybe, but he's not getting calls now. He was getting calls many months ago

By the public offer, it upped Scalley’s USU offer

He's had the contract for 7-8 months. How does publicizing it affect anything?

His contract was signed last November

But it was not public until yesterday, for a reason. This scares off any suitors

lol. No it wouldn't. The coaching world is much smaller than that.

I really doubt Scalley would consider USU HC job.

An experienced HC has job offers and contract leverage in salary negotiations.

So then why doesn't he take that job? Having his contract made public has no

He would be hoping to leverage that experience to become HC at Utah.

The trend right now is for P4 to hire P4 OC/DC, not G5 HC.

The timing indicates they are related but I would say it was more an effort to reassure any recruits/players

It could involve recruiting, but not the main, as USU is not a threat to UofU

Mabuhay Coug

Jul 2, 12:46pm

Not for anyone choosing between the two schools. I'm just talking about settling any uncertainty for Utah recruits

That makes sense, as well

Not a crazy take. May not be true. But not crazy.
