Lots of twists and turns in that saga. Who knows how it all shakes out.

What is the deal with Kent State? They need to stay out of our business and go get their coaches somewhere else.

$$$$$$$$$$$
Just a guess, but a quick google search shows 2015 athletic budgets at $24 million for Kent and $10 million for USD. Didn't try to drill down to comparable football only budgets but I think we can safely assume significant differences.

Well yeah, $$$$. My point was why are they continually looking at USD people? There are other FCS schools.

Per the state website, O'Boyle was at $72,500 and Middleton was at $47,942

So what you are implying is that Joel Nielsen, Kent St's current AD - former USD AD, is poaching Herbie's hires because he believes Herbie is doing a better job than he did while he was at USD...? Hmmmm... possibly. ;-)

Does the AD play a role in hiring position coaches? I would think it's largely up to the head coach.

Looks like Andy Aune is heading to Concordia St Paul according to his Twitter bio.

Does anybody know if they started interviewing for the 3 vacant coaching positions? Or who is being considered?

Spoke with Dave Herbster in Omaha on Friday and they interviewed receiver coach that day.
