When did Geiger leave?  1989?  I'm not sure Stanford was the NCAA powerhouse they are now back then plus he left for Ohio State which probably dwarfed us in terms of salary, budget and prestige in those days.  I bet he thought it was a no-brainer.

Scratch that .... just remembered he left for Maryland, not Ohio State.  Ok, I'm stumped.  He was an East Coast guy though.

Boise could have been a big loser in the football conference realignments.  The school is in a small town, bad time zone and small state.  There is nothing noteworthy in the football history for the school, town, state or regional.  Yet amazingly, Boise was a desirable catch.

Meanwhile SJSU seems to have so many things going for it.  Big city, big state, a state known with a rich football history and football talent.  Yet amazingly, SJSU has been struggling.  So if someone could make Boise into a player in football and the sports conference games, that person has to be considered a good catch for SJSU.

SJSU is so close to losing football and even D1 status forever, that even I can understand their willingness to look beyond some potential character flaws.  Good for them on finding someone willing to take on the SJSU challenges.
