We need the RIGHT type of culture in Ames now. And Mike Ditka is the one to bring it!

Does anyone know anything about Sean Lewis? I've been googling random mid-major coaches and saw he's got Midwest ties, HC experience, and some success. Currently at San Diego State.

I'd be curious if someone like Dave Doeren could be interested in a move; fairly consistent, not a super sexy hire but seems to be grounded and also has some Midwest ties

Wasn't Lewis Coach Prime's offensive coordinator in year 1?

On one hand, very polite of CMC to wait until the end of the season to consider another job. On the other hand, it really put us behind the eight ball in regards to finding a replacement. CMC's "no regular season" policy is one that sounds great in practice, but put JP in a tough spot.

I don’t think it was Campbell’s decision to make. Sitake was the one to wait.

Coach Becht.

There's always insane turnover in programs anymore, but are these recruits following just Matt Campbell only? And is that what PSU wants is ISU's entire starting roster?…..

Do we think QB Becht, RB Hansen, TE Brahmer, etc. will all be the starters in Happy Valley next season?

I personally don't, but who knows? I think the 2026 roster will be good in Ames, it's more the 2027, 28, 29 rosters that will need to be resolidified by the new HC.

The roster won’t be so great in ‘26 if Campbell takes the top ten Cyclones with him. They have the roster space and the money. But, will Campbell do it?

I really don’t understand why you and others are 100% sold we are going to be horrible now

I would be more interested in Sydney Sweeney Stitt.

Which one?

 

[Tpups21]

Woodley/Kempt. Fug it, get crazy, passion means more than experience.

At least they would be less likely to jump ship right after having success.

You'll understand once the transfer portal opens.

Man…reading this thread is kind of like watching Hee Haw…”gloom, despair and agony on me.Deep dark depression. Excessive misery…”

If a coaches leaves, does that open the transfer portal immediately or is that only when they are fired? Wondering if the new coach will be in place by the time that happens.
