Wolf was my position coach for a brief period of time, what's been said about him is correct. He's bright, high energy and can recruit. I really liked the guy and would love to see him on the sidelines at KSU someday--he'll get his DI shot, no doubt.

(not kidding)

He'll undoubtedly be on the list.

He's a great recruiter, he's coached under Spurrier, Snyder, Leavitt, and he's not even 40. After a few years of cutting his teeth in Youngstown, he's probably be ready for an interview.

Will he be the first choice? Dunno. But if I had a guess, he'll be pretty far up the list.

He coached at Illinois under Zook when Zook had his best season (9-4) in 2007. The first season he was gone we went 3-9.

We'd be stupid not to consider him at all.

Mangino is on his staff. If we're lucky, maybe he'll come as OC.

after spending time around him in MHK, it's hard for me to believe that eric wolford can be successful at anything.

I would definitely take him over whatever retread loser that John Currie is probably going to hire. He's learned from some of the best coaches in America, he's recruiting his ass off, and he's winning games.

You guys want to hire another Prince? What makes this guy qualified up to this point?

I'm not sure I'd hire Wofford, and I'm not sure of his binder situation, but he does have head coaching experience. He would be more qualified than Prince. But Prince did coach D'Brick.

Yeah, more qualified. Sad to say, but in 2006 when we hired Prince, Wolford arguably would have been a more experinced hire at that time. Wolford had more years of D-IA coaching experience under his belt than Prince: In 2006 Prince had 5 years experience in D-IA/3 as coordinator -- while Wolford already had 9 years experience in D-IA/0 as coordinator, and was at Arizona at the time. NOW in 2013, Wolford has an additional four years as an assistant at top FBS schools and four years as head coach, where he has posted an improved record every year (7-1 currently in 2013).

Is Wolford ready for KSU now? Maybe, maybe not.

Was Prince the most infuriatingly insipid hire ever by any athletic department? Probably so.

Would hiring RP back now be a smarter move, since now he has NCAA D1 head coaching experience?

Well, he's a proven idiot, so no. But I'd suppose Prince might still be a bit better at coaching in 2013 than he was in 2006.
