For the record, former Montana Grizzlies football coach Joe Glenn has not been whiling away his post-Wyoming days in a beer truck.

"Not yet," he said Tuesday.

Glenn is at least semiretired these days, owner of a new house in Scottsdale, Ariz., that he and his wife, Michele, will move into in June.

After being fired by the University of Wyoming in December after six seasons, Glenn collected the final two years of his contract - he was making $316,000 per - and decided to get busy relaxing.

The last time he was let go, just 24 years ago, he had two little mouths to feed named Erin and Casey.

"I sold beer and wine Monday through Thursday and drove a beer truck Friday," he said.

Now Erin and Casey are parents, which makes Glenn and Michele grandparents, which just about makes these the salad days.

"My standard line is, 'I'm listening, I'm not looking,' " said Glenn, 60. "I'm getting a lot of grandchildren time."
