      Good Luck, Coach.
      But we don't play nobody.

              Coach Bankheads twitter status as of last week was:

              searching for a coaching job...
              Best wishes to him. Hopefully he finds something, either through his own contacts, or through contacts through Coaches Grier or Few.

                One of the requirements for the new job is that he change his name to Billy-Bob Grier.

                    Billy's probably a better coach than Ford. Bill just had so much inherited trouble down there. And there was more trouble ahead nobody could know about. Tough slog for a great guy. Best to him and his wife. Great couple.

                        Good news for fans in Stillwater! The Cowboys now have a coach on their staff that has beaten the Zags!

                          If the Cowboys don't get better than they were last year, he'll likely be looking for a job next year too. Ford is on the hotseat.

                            It's hilarious that Grier has beaten us but the power 5 school is 0-for-6.
                            "After holding open practices during his first three seasons, Romar closed them to reporters last season, citing the "Gonzaga factor." He felt his team was compromised before the 2004-05 game against the Zags, that the opponent awaiting him and beating him 99-87 in Spokane seemed a little too well prepared."

                              T-Bone's not shelling out all that money for the Cowboys to barely make the Dance.
