Paul Rhoads lands a new job

[norcalcy]

Welcome to CA Paul. Commuting the 405 will test your patience some days and you won't like the taxes, but coaching games at the Rose Bowl with highly rated recruits will be cool. Good luck!

Head coach to DB coach to DC to interim HC to DB coach....

 

[DeereClone]

That's a good gig for him.

Happy to hear this news for Coach Rhoads. I knew quite a few players that played under him when I was in school and they all loved the man. Nothing but love and respect from me for Coach Rhoads!

Don’t know how his lunch pail and hard hats will go over in LA.

 

[Cyinthenorth]

Feel for the guy as head coach to position coach is a bit of a tumble. But maybe it's the job he wants, and hell, he kind of joined a sinking ship at Arkansas. Not all his fault.

Coaching is a tough racket. I'm sure he is doing what is best for him and his family. DB coach at UCLA probably still pays pretty well, plus he doesn't have to work for Beleama anymore.

But, he has to live amongst the fruits and nuts. Good luck with that, CPR.

Don't quit your day job!

I retired once, but found another school that would let me teach. Old player became head coach, so he asked me to do special teams. Anyway, don't feel sorry for me. I'm a double dipping old coach who enjoys coaching without having to be full time.

Good Airports for recruits!! but you could use the forest fires, apocalyptic traffic, or bullets as an excuse to not get good recruits to campus.

Couldn't resist.....sorry....happy for you CPR. Say hi to Steve Alford.

 

[SCarolinaCy]

No, it was Head Coach to Secondary Coach, to Defensive Coordinator, to Secondary Coach.

Congrats to Paul though. I'd love to have his millions and be living in southern California.

I'm guessing his home dwelling will be a bit smaller than it was in Ames. $5 mil doesn't go as far in Southern CA.

Wonder how long before his old boss is divorced if he doesn't find a gig soon. He was able to use Alvarez's system at Wisky. Doesn't work at many other schools outside that school because it is an old method and takes awhile to develop

 

[Knownothing]

Gene chizik is the only former coach I don’t root for. The rest are solid guys I wished would have worked out but did not. Good luck Paul

 

[Jiub]

Congrats CPR! Enjoy the weather out there in LA. Wishing you success.

FIFY

I don't have any good photo editing program, but I have an Idea in my brain about a SoCal Paul that I would like to see.

Chip Kelly put's his defensive coordinators in tough situations with the offense he runs. I wish CRP all the best.

Paul is a great guy but I don't think we have to feel sorry for him. He walked with $5+ million. He's probably happy just to coach without the head guy pressure and enjoy the sun,

 

[Cycsk]

Stay away from Re-al Mitchell!

 

[NickTheGreat]

Wish the best for him.

Rhoads in Los Angeles would make for a funny sitcom. In all fairness, I wouldn't fit in well there either

Why?
If I was fired with a 5 million dollar buyout I'd just go fishing.

Yeah, coaches aren't usually wired that way. Too competitive. Good luck to Paul out on the coast.
