The DUI was a problem for Harbaugh, as I recall. So was his habit of starting every interview with, "First of all I'd like to thank Jesus Christ..." whenever someone pointed a microphone at him. That made SDSU people squirm a little. For whatever reason he's toned that down with the 49ers. That's because JC kept urging him to go for it on 4th down, even deep in their own territory. He finally realized that JC didn't know much about football. |

I remember a lot of people including me wanted someone with Div 1 coaching experience. Yeah, I didn't suspect Harbaugh would be nearly as successful as he has been either. Neither did a lot of Stanford fans. When they first announced the Harbaugh hire, I went to the Stanford message board out of curiosity and the vast majority had the reaction of "a D3 coach from a non-scholarship school, are you kidding me?". Just goes to show you how much must of us fans actually know - even smart Stanford grads. |

USD could not beat us in the best of Torero times and the worst of Aztec times. I completely get that on paper we would look dominant. But that's on paper. Having said that, ponder this: * Harbaugh vs. C. Long? * 11-1 USD vs. 2-10 SDSU? * Josh Johnson (cousin of Marshawn Lynch) was Harbaugh's record-setting QB. Johnson was a better QB than anyone we had at State during the C. Long era. He's been in the NFL for 6 years with Tampa Bay, S.F. and now Cleveland. * USD beat the likes of Yale and lost on last-minute FGs to Princeton. Both teams were ranked ahead of Cal Poly in the FCS Top 25 rankings. USD finished ranked only a couple slots behind Cal Poly. 'Nuff said about that. So with C. Long at the helm for the Aztecs and Harbaugh at the helm for USD, I wouldn't get too cocky. |

Cougar King- H. so what is your take, and what are they saying in Houston about this BE , situation. We would like to form a Western Division for ALL Sports of the BE- and have U of H , with SDSU. Our administration has been hush-hush about the wholething. They haven't expressed any loyalty to the nBE but they haven't decided to leave either. From what I heard, we want a special deal from the MWC similar to Boise but with a few unique perks basically the UH equivalent to Boise being able to wear all-blue on blue turf. So I think if we don't get most or all of our demands granted and if BYU doesn't go in, then we'll stay in the nBE. Yeah, that precedent the MWC set just to get their precious Broncos to stay is going to bite them in the arse from here on out. |

True with as physically weak as that Aztec team was and as bad as that Aztec team was and no matter who the coaches were the Aztecs would have beat USD bad. Size and speed would have killed Toreros. |

I've actually been wondering that for a while. It would be good for the community imo. Ha. Actually, when Harbaugh was the coach at USD, every time he went on the radio, he challenged SDSU to schedule a game with USD. He also boldly predicted that his USD team would beat SDSU. It was kind of funny, but at the time, maybe true. Who knows. Harbaugh had zero respect for either Tom Craft or Chuck Long. This was the time when we were going 2-10 vs. Harbaugh's 11-1. And when our AD finally pulled the trigger on Craft, Harbaugh again took to the airwaves and lobbied for the job. Sadly, the AD & President decided to hire an expensive headhunter to find the next coach. They searched high and low and nationwide. They settled on Chuck Long, possibly the worst head coach in the long annals of SDSU football. Couldn't possibly hire a guy who was right under their nose. Good thing we dodged that bullet. You are a little mistaken there, longtimebooster, we did not go 2-10 under Craft. That horrendous record happened under coach Chuck Long in 2008, and I had to witness that. The worse Craft did was his first year at 4-9. |

They have great players on their roster. USD isn't a football powerhouse, but for a team that doesn't have tax payers funding their program, the coaches and staff do a decent job. |

That's where you end up when you're a private school raising your own funds. How can you talk $#!+ when SDSU fans don't show up to their scholarship player's home games during one of the best seasons in the program's history? Seriously, shut the f x x x up hating on college kids. |

The worse Craft did was his first year at 4-9. Yeah, I knew that and meant to type it that way, but it's so hard to keep the crapiness of Craft & Long straight. |
