Y’all are really impatient frickers when it comes to coaching searches. 
This hasn’t been unusually slow at all

I think BSU’s expectations are through the roof.
They had 2 second team all conference lineman this year. 2 first team and 1 second team all conference last year.
That’s 5 separate players too. Not repeats

Not super worried considering he’s coaching TEs.
Well I think the idea people are going with is Friend recruits them in and Bedell develops the lineman. Since Friend doesn’t have a great rep of developing

Boise State fans online seemed kinda happy to be rid of Bedell, as opposed to when Danielson was expected to leave. They claim he didn't develop players well. Could be sour grapes though too.

Edit-- Danielson now staying at Boise St.

How could they have been announced last week or early this week when their employment and actual positions on the staff quite obviously depended on how the rest of the staff turned out? Schmedding can't be hired as the ILB coach until you have a DC in place because that impacts how the staff is filled out. Derek Mason is a DB coach by trade which means that there is room for two LB coaches (if we want to go that route), however, let's say that we somehow got Marcus Freeman instead who coaches linebackers on top of being the DC. Now what? You officially name Schmedding and then relieve him of his duties a week later?
Brad Bedell's position on the staff also quite obviously depended on the pick for OC and their input. Bobo wanted to bring Friend with him as the OL coach. That pushes Bedell to TE. However, lets say we flop on pursuing Bobo and instead somehow end up with someone from Harsin's staff at Boise as the OC. Under that scenario perhaps Bedell is actually the OL coach, not just TE coach.
The reason why the Boise guys weren't named right away is because their positions were dependent on bigger hires made around that that have a trickle down effect. You can't hire Schmedding as a LB coach if perhaps Derek Mason has a different idea for his own guy there.

I’m sure a few might have had conditional offers from Harsin at AU, but he gave them a little extra time to see if they possibly were in line for a promotion under the new regime in Boise.

We've been hearing Bedells name for close to a week though, maybe he's already been hired and they are just delaying the announcement for some reason? Schmedding seems like a guy Harsin wanted to bring over no matter what too.. I don't see a connection between him and Mason. Maybe I'm wrong about that though.

Can’t hire quickly for the sake of an already lost recruiting class. I’d feel differently if this were a normal January where coaches could bring players in for official visits.

Brad Bedell official as TE Coach.

Not to mention the 1 time transfer rule is looking like its not going to get passed at this time, so it makes transfers a little less important.

I'm just legitimately curious about the pace of the interviews/announcements.

Why get frustrated about the pace of hiring?
It’s just you wanting things to happen at your convenience.
What are we missing? Explain yourself as if you are trying to make chicken shite into chicken salad.

It does look like Harsin didn’t want to really bring in position coaches before he had coordinators on board. Part of that might be the package nature deal of college coaches. Bobo brought friend. Harsin likely didn’t want to handcuff his coordinators with Boise guys if they had a guy they really wanted

Anyone hearing Roman Sapolu, 4 time Super Bowl Champ Jesse Sapolu's son, for TE coach? He is at Fresno State right now
