Title: Turner Gill = Herman Edwards
Post by: WildcatNkilt on December 13, 2009, 11:58:02 AM: Both of these guys seem to be level headed gentlemen, but do not have an above average track record. Good luck to Gill, but I see him having Edwards-like coaching success at ku.

Just a gut feeling FWIW.

Please validate my gut feeling. TIA

No human being could possibly be as stupid as Herm with his 4th quarter play-calling and clock management. However, with Gill, there might be some deer-in-headlights moments when he finally realizes that he's seeing some of the best defenses in college football week in and week out in the BIG 12 and he's got below-average-talent players lined up on his side of the ball. Herm will be glad not to be Turner Gill. :rofl:

I was thinking the little brother, "Michael" on Good Times. Very thoughtful, kind of a "glue" guy.
