Chris Jans Original Thread

[Stickboy46]

I'm sorry, but as much as I want to support him, this looks like a massive failure on his part. I'd like to know what he did before I really decide what I think, but good grief. Talk about blowing it.

As bad as it sounds.. I hope whatever it is, that it happened while at BG and not at WSU

I cannot imagine what he must have done for this to happen in this manner.

Wow! Talk about an unexpected shot out of the blue. Just really very sad news.

I hope it is something that Chris can overcome. Just not anything I would have expected to happen.

I'd love to give Chris Jans a second chance and have him hired back here to get his reputation back up. But I'm thinking this had to be something kinda bad considering how great of a season he had. I'm not sure if we'll ever hear the full details on this, so I just don't know.

Huge bummer.

A valid concern but this is for public conduct, whcih means someone somewhere is aware of inappropriate behavior. This could be virtually anything. I do wish he and his family well during this troubling time.

He's such a talented coach but he obviously has some demons.

Who doesn't?

Let's pray that whatever his issue is passes the risk/reward test for him to find a new opportunity.

He was in Cleveland last week supporting the Shockers. Hung out with the boosters in the hotel after the game. Maybe Bowling Green didn't like that.

@Gary:ParrishCBS: Chris Jans is a former Wichita State assistant. Would've theoretically been in play at Wichita if Gregg Marshall had left. And now this.

[SHOCKvalue]

Damn, crappy news. Hopefully it's something that he can recover from. He's such a talented coach but he obviously has some demons.

He does?

This is a complete shock to me.

The BG board has about two posts on it

We all know the great Kung Wu has many of them. Comes with the territory I suppose ;)

[BOBB]

What a bad deal. Hope this is something he can come back from.

Agreed, but obviously it did not pass BGSU's risk/reward test.

Man, what a week this has been.

If that's what it is, then that's a crazy overreaction. I could see them not liking it, but no reason to can him in this matter.

Really, Really, Really sucks.
