Tom Manning to return?

Great news. I don’t think it’ll change much, but if we’re going to lose someone he’s a solid replacement.
 
Someone or Something!

Plenty of opportunity to spread blame with threads like: "Time for New Turf", "Ack, Uniforms", "Stop Sweet Caroline", "OL", "Purdy" , "11:00 Kickoff :mad:", "7:00 Kickoff :mad:", "Kicking!", "Damn Illegal Motion", "Why is [insert name] Playing", Why isn't [insert name] Playing", "TARGETING", "Fans Should Be In Their Seats!", "Our Concessions Suck!" and "Question on Sideline Demeanor".

Don't forget threads started with only names ie, "Brock Prudy."
 
This speaks volumes about both Campbell and ISU! I know that Manning sees this as the easiest path to a Head Coach position. But the fact he's wanting to do it through Campbell and at ISU is absolutely awesome!

I don't believe you... But if you're not lying, my bad.

Tom Manning's coaching page has been updated on cyclones.com and he is listed as the "2019 Iowa State – Offensive Coordinator, Running Game Coordinator". It is not linked to the list of coaches page, but his page is updated:

Its almost like he never left!

P.S. Manning's work with Brian Bobek was outstanding. I think Bobek was our MVP that year. We were so different when he was not in the game. Like Farniok before him.

Why are we discussing Gasser leaving? Didn’t Hofher retire or go to the AAF? Isn’t that the open spot he’d fill?

Hofner was an analyst and not a "coach". Him leaving has no effect on the # of "coaches" we can have.

I always thought it was a slightly curious move to go to the Colts. It was not an unreasonable one by any stretch, but I figured Manning was either...

(1.) an obvious candidate to promote to head coach, if Campbell were to leave

(2.) if Campbell kept it up in Ames, a guy who would get college head job considerations

Seems he is back into that catbird seat now.

That seems like a link to an old page. Not seeing anything about Manning on the current website coach list or directory.
