There are bad things that are known about his time at Boise,

Yeah, a while back I read some Boise boards and Boise newspapers. Up there it is known that Harsin is impossible to work with. One Boise beat reporter said Harsin treated his assistants terribly, but they were not "big name" assistants who could easily find other work, so they just had to "take it."

So what happened is Harsin got to AU and thought he could pull this with guys like Bobo and Mason (both former head coaches). He learned quick that people who have other options won't put up with it.

As for Bobo, I am not sure Harsin even hired him anyway. While they did both coach in the WAC and knew each other, I am now inclined to think Bobo was pushed on him by the PTB. It's just too weird that Bobo was gonna be Steele's OC before Harsin was hired. So if it's true Bobo was pushed on him, then that likely strained the relationship from the start.
