Why? Some people just enjoy coaching their side of the ball without all the organization of the HC, press conferences, meetings with boosters, meetings with the AD, road trips to politic, etc.Quote:

Not for sure but I don't see a ton of candidates with the experience that I'd like to see this year. Next year will give all of them another year to be evaluated. But I'm not sure of the entire set of options either.Quote:

I disagreeQuote:

There will be some other jobs open as well.
If Joe fails hopefully Cohen won’t be doing anything other than introducing the new coach.Quote:

That's not a "better crop of coaches", that's just "the present crop of coaches, but slightly more proven". And the new G5 HC's won't have proven themselves much in their 1 year as HC, so again, the coaches in next years' pool will basically be the same in this year' pool for all intents and purposes.Quote:

Hire guys with good resumes, but that are 1-2 years too short for the big dogs to be happy with. Else we'll just have to the OC/retred route
Well if it's true that Joe is loyal to the boosters that are fine with Joe, then it's kind of terrifying to think of who those boosters would pick as Joe's replacementQuote:

No no no. You have it all wrong.** Many on this board have no common sense or foresight to see what we have to do. These same people are happy with leaving 5-6 wins on the field the last 2 years, just because we beat shitty OM and made a bowl game.Quote:

I'll roll the dice with the Cigar Boys who picked Napier.Quote:

The real problem is Cohen doesn't have common sense.Quote:

If we have an ok coach then we're competing for that same position in the 5th year. It doesn't matter if we've got Hud or Clark or Napier or Norvell or Satterfield or whoever else is out there. State football is what it is....and the same goes for OM football too. It doesn't matter if they have Hud or Clark or Napier or Norvell or Satterfield or KIFFIN. Nothing to get worked up over guys....1st pitch is in 69 Days!!!!!
Hail State!....Hell Yeah!
Bro, you disagree with every statement on here then never offer insight. I'm convinced there is another part of you somewhere on the board. Who is your alter ego Dawg77?Quote:
