2009 Rocky Mountain Football League season 2009 Season . The 2009 Season saw the RMFL staff coming into focus . Shane Campbell replaced Travis Hobson as web master and initiated a new web site for the RMFL as the RMFL moved to a new Statistics hosting program through “ Hosted Statistics ” . A program that worked well only if the league stayed within the “ cookie cutter ” requirements of the program . Further , the RMFL experienced unprecedented growth . With only the Salt Lake Seminoles and Stripling Warriorz folding ; and the Idaho Matadors merging with the Treasure Valley Spartans , the league continued to grow . 7 new franchises were added , two of those 7 were added as a AA “ affiliate ” of a current AA team : Ogden ( formerly Bear River ) Rockets and the Treasure Valley ( formerly Boise Speed ) Spartans . 5 other new teams were added , including two teams that would capture RMFL championships in the next two seasons : Wasatch Revolution and Saint George Blitz . Along with the new AA affiliates and the Blitz and Revolution , the league added the Utah Valley Desperados , Utah County Outlawz and the Davis Cowboys . The league was formed into 14 AA teams and 14 AAA teams for 28 teams . Bitter player movement debate and consequences followed the league early on after the Kick - off meeting . A large portion of key Utah Wolverine players left the Wolverines to help start the new Wasatch Revolution team and a number of Davis Vipers left that age - old franchise to join the Utah Shock . Commissioners Dave Sire and Travis Hobson were entrenched in bitter suspension rulings and player movement interpretations that would scar the beginning of the season . Ultimately , all would be resolved as the Utah Shock , once again , won the regular season title , even beating the Wasatch Revolution in the regular season to gain the # 1 seed . Lead once again by reigning league MVP , Jordan Kjar , this time the Shock would make it to the RMFL title game , only to be undone by former BYU Cougar , quarterback , Charlie Peterson and the highly stocked expansion , Wasatch Revolution team for the 2009 RMFL title . Interestingly , it would not be the first time a team new to the league would win the title . It was also done in 1999 ( Snake River ) , 2000 ( Wasatch Wildcats ) , 2001 ( Pocatello Predators ) , 2004 ( Rhino - Raiders ) . The AA saw a number of rising franchises emerge , rising out of a history of difficult seasons : including Great Falls Gladiators ( 7 - 1 ) , Magic Valley Bulldawgs ( 7 - 1 ) , Glacier Knights ( 6 - 2 ) as well as the Logan Stampede ( 8 - 0 ) taking the next step and expansion team , Utah Valley Desperados ( 7 - 1 ) making a statement . The Desperados would upset the Gladiators in Great Falls to face the Logan Stampede in the AA Championship game . In a closely contested bout , the Stampede would emerge with the AA title and a stake in the upper echelon of the RMFL for 2010 .

From 2000 - 2003 , McGinnis compiled a 17 - 40 record with the team . However , he had a record of 14 - 12 in games decided by eight or less points . The reason for his lack of success as a head coach has been attributed to the lack of talent on his team , as his successor Dennis Green failed to win more than six games in any season despite previously earning acclaim as head coach of the Minnesota Vikings . McGinnis was the focal figure in an embarrassing public relations blunder by the Bears in 1999 . After McGinnis interviewed for the vacant head coach position on Thursday , January 22 , team president Mike McCaskey prematurely organized a news conference for the following day with local and national media to announce the hiring of McGinnis as the eleventh Head Coach of the Bears . The news came as a surprise to most notably McGinnis , who had not reached terms on a contract . In an attempt to save face , the Bears postponed the news conference and issued a personal apology to McGinnis from the patriarch of Bears ownership , Ed McCaskey . However , McGinnis remained disenchanted with the order of business conducted by the team and officially declined future consideration . He became the Assistant Head Coach / Linebackers Coach for the Tennessee Titans in 2004 . Head coaching record .
