Chow Withdraws Name for NC State Coach Position

I can understand the talk of Weis leaving ND. I don't understand Chow leaving at this point. He just got started with Vince. If he thinks Vince is going to develop well, another few years would do much more for his resume than the last two...

 

Also, note the quote from this article.

He's got a job here that he's happy with.

I know he isn't going to say he's looking, but at least he's making a statement about his current status.

 

Dig away.

How short somes memories are. It was mentioned numerous times when he came here.

 

Chow is 60 years old. He is not getting any younger.

 

I see that NC State has hired Tom O'Brien away from Boston College. My old friend , BC A.D., Gene DePhillippo is not a happy camper in regards to that.

 

I'm with Jeff, he doesn't look more appealing since being here. I bet he stays awhile longer.

 

I think Norm sees what the potential is here in the very near future. I think he stays to enjoy success.

 

The NFL gives Chow a lot a recruiting cred that he wouldn't have had otherwise. I think as far as a career step it's a solid move. And doesn't detract from his resume'. So I see it as plausible he used this as a stepping stone.
