Who is his mystery date? Lane Kiffin?
Whenever we need a reason to laugh. Some of us have a sense of humor…other do not.
Yes, I love when people talk about an OL coach and talk about how their philosophy is to be violent, physical, etc just like every OL coach, OC and HC in football history.
Except for our one random crazy ass OL coach that wanted them to be lean and athletic.
You need all of this, but you still have to instill proper technique. Bill Callahan was terrible as a head coach, but he knows how to coach OL. He teaches that often the difference between a winning play and a poor play comes down to a 1- inch difference in hand or foot placement.
Unless the coach has some pretty deep ties to the school, the idea that the coach would be crazy to leave is assuming they’re just there to collect a paycheck. Yes, the paycheck matters, but successful coach want to win - period. No mercy. They’re there to build programs, win games and make the playoffs. They would continue to coach at a school if they have access to the all tools they need (especially if they’re successful - they’ll want more). They’re going to want: an AD that allows them to operate, a supportive fan base, facilities and in today’s era, sufficient NIL. ISU doesn’t have all those at the CFP level. ISU needs the badass, hungry coaches, but keeping them, if they’re successful, is an extremely daunting task.
I’m not enthusiastic about a coach that thinks ‘I’m making pretty good coin here and maybe I’ll get a statue, I think I’ll stay another year’.
Really impressed with our OLrecruiting.
That said - it had to be a priority, as we only had 1 OLineman on the team, and he is a non starter. So, we needed 9 just to be 2 deep.
I suspect that every year the portal priority will simply be the position group of greatest need.
It was barely funny the first time it was posted, by the 18th time its novelty has worn off.
This AI crap is just stupid sometimes.
No. We need depth, this is depth. Going to a P4 for your last year, it’s probably a 25k type payment for him. Value player.
I don’t know if that’s true. As far as I know, we have Barrett, Holt, Rutledge and Jensen. At least I haven’t seen those 4 in the portal.
Except for Rhoads OL coaches. Mauling was not even in their vocabulary. They were doing weird things.
