He did very badly at Mississippi State.

He got fired for like 23 different reasons there.

Going 8-4 his first season and winning 2 Egg Bowls. That must have been it.

Second season 10 players suspended. Starters.

Admittedly. Not a good fit.
 
Do we root for any possible candidate to lose in a bowl/playoff game to speed up the process ? Haha

To that drivel of an article I would say relax, it seems to indicate Moorehead and Reno, and those apparently aren't high on the list of people being looked at. So take it with a grain of salt, lick of lime, and shot of your favorite spirit (or soda for those who abstain from alcohol).

Those would legit be the two worst options. I can't imagine we would go in that direction, Benedict is smarter than that.

Only Rutgers could mismanage getting into one of the two premier conferences. They needed to dramatically upgrade facilities, and still do, and borrowed against future payouts. That put them in a hole that they are still working to dig their way out of.


but they're all quality followers...

I’m sorry that’s incorrect. The correct answer was, Who is Boston College. Select again.

Well, I am completely convinced that neither Moorehead nor Reno will get it. (Which of course means that one of them will probably be announced on Monday.)

But if it doesn't happen, and we all agree that Dan Mullen makes more than UConn can afford, and Ryan Carty is in the middle of a rocket ride like HCRE1.0 and has already beaten UConn on his first try, and the Delaware AD is likely to raise until UConn folds, then who? Kevin Cahill or a P4 Coordinator of which there are many who might fit?
 
I think Moorhead was fired because they knew they could get Mike Leach.

Moorhead had Top 25 classes and went 14-12.

His team suffered disciplinary issues, the QB into a fight with a teammate and had to miss a bowl game.

Supposedly he never “bonded” with the fanbase.

The reasons for his exit may have been manufactured But really I just think they wanted Mike Leach.

Also apparently he isn’t in the mix so we don’t need to talk about him.
 
Some info!

If Mullen willing to leave I'll you can't let $1 million be the deal breaker. Shift money from somewhere else.

You’re on the fence? About Moorhead?

He’s nowhere near my top choice? But could I see us doing worse? Yeah, I could. But as I said, it’s not a possibility. If it was going to be him it would have happened already.

My distain for Boston College is second to no one, but they are merely a parasite in a bottom P4 conference, while Rutgers is managing to run a 70+ million dollar deficit, notwithstanding being in one of the two most lucrative conferences in college sports.

Have him bring in Sean Spencer as DC!

Sean Spencer is making $500k as the defensive line coach. I believe Brock makes less than $300k. DB needs to increase the coaches salary pool.
 
Torn on Smith. Great relationship with players which could buff our recruiting, but doesn’t have much experience and would the recruiting translate here at all?

Cahill’s still open and I think he’s the guy, JMU is hiring Napier.

That coaches at places like Yale and Lehigh are in a world with more moral standards (o.k., any moral standards) compared to big time football.

Unfortunately to win at big time college football morals have nothing to do with it.
