Footballscoop.com is reporting that CWB will resign today and become AD. Also, sources say UAB is pursuing Neuheisel. Would be an excellent hire IMO.
Rick Neuheisel to UAB?
- Thread starter drfrankfree
- Start date
In other news... the NCAA has announced they will be setting up an office on the campus of UAB.
I just don't see how Neuheisel will get another college coaching job with a gambling scandal over his head.
Yes it was, and the NCAA took it as seriously as they could. Just like the NFL, they are PARANOID when it comes to coaches and gambling of any kind.
The NCAA actually didn't have grounds to go after Neuheisel on the gambling issues because of a lot of confusion about the rules.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rick_Neuheisel has some more information.

Yes, but think about it...he would never land at a big school with that scandal over his head. However, he could go to a place like UAB, he's got a name, he could get the players to come there, I'm sure, and he could win games there. He could get UAB where they need to be and put that scandal behind him by winning games and proving that he can be trusted. I'm one of the few Bama and UAB fans out there, so this concerns me a little bit. I'd think it'd be a good deal if CRN went to UAB and CWB was AD.
My personal line of thought is that UAB would try to elevate a prominent HS coach in the area to the College level if Brown were to step down.
This is another example of the gestapo we have to deal with known as the NCAA. They investigated Neuheisel about activities that they had said were ok, destroyed his career for no reason, and moved on. This guy is a real coaching talent and no big school will touch him,not because he's done anything wrong, but because the NCAA goons would love to nail him and will scrutinize the school he works for too closely. The NCAA plays favorites, deceives, and destroys lives. The NCAA should be investigated and disbanded. If RN comes to UAB I'll go to the games. A lot of people will.
Too bad Joey Jones took on the task of building Birmingham Southern from scratch.
The biggest asset a guy like Neuheisel has is definitely recruiting. He could make UAB a much bigger player in recruiting than they are.
Neuheisel ran Colorado and Washington into the ground. Look at the condition those programs were in when he got there and the condition they were in when he left. I would love to see him at UAB. :biggrin2:

Didn't R. Probst say he'd take his staff and thought he could coach at the college level against at least 50 of the staffs out there??? My father in law told me he said that on the news last night. Let him go to UAB. Maybe he and his staff CAN outcoach 50 other staffs!!!
If Larry Blakeney can be a head coach in the Div IA football then so can Neuheisel although I agree it won't be at a big school.
I'm assuming you're referring to Propst. I can guarantee you that won't happen - Propst's boys took some cheap shots on Watson's son when he was playing QB at Vestavia. He pretty much hasn't had anything to do with him since then...
