I'm getting old... Is this a drugs question?

I'd say he's a lot likelier to be "cool" than Coach Peepaw... Assuming the controlled substance in question isn't the old cocaine toothache drops that Snyder might have bought back in the late 1800s.

Maybe? He does look a little like a Down Syndrome Joliet Jake. I think he got his education at Oklahoma instead of Woodstock.

He's not gone yet. But I can't blame him for moving on if the opportunity is there. And I can't fault you guys for going after him. Any time you can get the 4th place coach in CUSA, I think you have to go for it.

Will I miss all the bowl wins? The Conference Championships? Of course. But, if you take Graham Harrell with him, I'm cautiously optimistic.

This year? Bill Clark at UAB, according to the regular season standings and the championship game.

OK thx.  BTY, that team's only been back for two years and I don't know much about him.  I haven't heard of him as a hot coach for a P5 spot.  What have you heard?

Guy pulls almost nothing but JUCOs, transfers, and 2-stars out of high school. Seems to win with them.

If you're the sort of school that fishes in those ponds, could be a great fit.

You broke my heart. All over this thread, and not even a private message my way?

At least set me up for some jokes here.

I don't know why he isn't on your radar... Maybe you guys just fell in love with LittreLL and can't see past him.

And I understand why. It's not like every single place LittreLL has ever coached in his life has hired a new HC since he started at North Texas without bothering to interview him. GA at Kansas, OC at Arizona and Indiana... And of course, coached at Texas Tech and North Carolina, who both hired new coaches just last month. I'm sure whatever reasoning made UNC decide to prop up the mummified corpse of Mack Brown was very compelling.

And when you can bring in a coach with the raw sex appeal of Matt Wells?



Good god, no wonder LittreLL isn't going to Tech. Kirby Hocutt was probably leaning over his own desk, pants around ankles and contract ready for signature as soon as Wells stormed into Lubbock and hit him with his own Dockers-dropping version of Blue Steel.

Makes perfect sense. LittreLL never had a real fair shake there.

So how do we think it all went down? Why the delay until Sunday night? I have zero clue about how any of this works, but is it possible that Gene urged Bill to retire, Bill called his bluff and said "fire me and give me my $X million," and then they came to some sort of middle-road settlement? And coming to that settlement is what caused the delay?  Need someone ITK to shed some light on this.

5.2 would've put BV in the top 10 of public university coaching salaries.  Just behind Herman (5.5), just ahead of Frost (5).

good to know we are trying at least.

saw kellis hint at that and some posts elsewhere suggesting that he was forced out. especially since he hasn't said anything.

if we're spending 200m on facilities, how about we just not build a rowing facility or whatever and put that money toward venables? just rent one of those metal building things, throw some rowing machines in there, boom done. 4m i understand him turning down, 5m he's kind of dumb but still a tiny bit understandable. 6.5m he's an idiot.

this is assuming he's holding out for a bigger job and wants to be a head coach, and not a FP.
