2025-26 Coaching Carousel

[Hoophound]

Moorhead wasn’t sought after at that time and was demoted to QB coach with little influence on who started. Whipple along with that defensive likely would have been successful imo.

Yep. Whip was the one that got away. I didn’t realize it at the time, but he would have scored a lot of points with the players we had and known enough about football to keep the defense going. From there, he could have recruited well because he played a fun brand of football.

Figured that was Petrino's all the way, but he didn't win a single game as interim. Another case of the grass not always being greener.

I think if Arkansas has a bit of patience, this will be a home run hire for them

Is it possible to hit more than a bloop double in ArKanzas?

Whipple had the right combo of wide open offense and whatever it takes to get it done attitude to have been great here. Overlooked by Hathaway? Too scary for Jeff.

We stole Hathaway from Colorado State.

Shoulda sent him back and kept Mora.

A home run hire at Arkansas is someone who can go 4-4 in conference regularly.

One thing is certain, Jeff Hathaway is not doing our coaching hire, it will be Dave Benedict who will do the hiring. I'm going to trust him.

Paying him 2 million to come to UConn should be classified as "good faith", right??

I’m picturing Brian Kelly becoming the UConn HC and suddenly sounding like a Pepperidge Farm commercial at his opening press conference.

He should be paying us to get an interview.

I'm hearing Mayor Quimby in my head.

For them that probably is a home run hahaha

 

[DoctorWho85]

Screw it go after Jimbo Fischer or maybe Dabo Sweeney will want to start fresh with how poorly Clemson is going. Go big or go home. Ed O is available too

 

[Vowelguy]

Crazy flip.

I don’t think the flip was on his side.

My understanding was that once Justin Wilcox became available, Oregon State said “uhhhhh can we hold off on signing the final papers.”

 

[huskymedic]

Everyone wants to try to be first… sloppy.

 

[ScottVib]

He'll decide this weekend, that's like Kiffin's announcement being saved for after the Egg Bowl. It also gives a chance for any other potentially interested parties to submit their last, best & final offers
