Hindsight it 20/20. He wanted a chance to be a starting QB and play baseball. He did that. He should stick to baseball. He's having fun, and that's what matters.
A head coach has to earn total control due to his experience at previous stops. Pete Carroll went to a Superbowl before going to USC which was a dumpster fire, Saban won a NC prior to Alabama. Harsin hasn't done anything to earn total control. When you give a coach total control who doesn't know what he's doing then you get inconsistency and damage to the program like at Florida and Tennessee.
Gatewood has been there 6 weeks. He's getting more playing time every week. Rome wasn't built in a day.
Yep Tidefan. They are going to find a lot of people turning it down just like the Tennessee job.
Gatewood has been there 6 week. How much developing were you expecting?
He wouldn't be the #2 school in his state.
Miami destroyed their program when they signed a 30 year contract to play football 45 minutes from campus.
Butch Davis coaches down the street and he wants his old job back. They can get him cheap.
Yep. The Big 12 will remain P5 because you've brainwashed the "P5" term into everybody. The Big is still one of the 5 best conferences, maybe top 3.
"Y'all know they play 4 quarters in football?" -Big Kat
He stopped dying his hair with Ginger #9. Gus and Kristi are loving the Florida lifestyle and he has a chip on his shoulders. I believe that we will be meeting again soon.
Danny White hired Josh Heupel to fire him. He runs a clean program and can put up points while they are under probation. Once they are out of probation White will hire a real coach. Heupel will then bounce around the Big 12/Pac 12 as an offensive coordinator for the rest of his career because he can't recruit.
They had 10 opt outs on defense, then dismissed 4 more starters during the season for breaking curfew and cussing at cops.
History repeats itself. Gus is basically going to follow the Bobby Bowden strategy of playing nobodies for 9-10 games a year and then beating a top 10 opponent in order to get into championship consideration. SEC schools are better off playing him now rather than letting him build a powerhouse of fresh players that only have to get up for one or two games a year.
Boise isn't getting an invite to any P5 conference. PAC12 is the closest conference and that will never happen. B12 is the most likely to expand and UCF would get an invite to the B12 before Boise based on market and recruiting.
I know all about the HBC. In 1990, he was not considered a great coach. If he wasn't alumni, he would not have gotten the UF job in 1990. If you compare what SOS had done in his career in 1990 to what GM had done in 2020, GM had accomplished more in that stage of his career. My overall point was that a change in scenery can change the trajectory of your career and your "greatness".
"respected" And what has that gotten them, nothing. UCF gets way more press than Boise could dream of and trending upward.
I was anti-Malzahn as well a few months ago, I thought he was a re-tread looking to retire but he's a household name in Florida, Georgia and Alabama. UCF couldn't have found another coach with as much cache. He's also impressed me with how involved he is with every aspect of the program. This is HIS marketing idea, not UCF's.
What's the point of firing a coach after the first game? You basically are giving up on the season.
