Oh yeah, I find it concerning. But I never think it is good for the teams to lose coaches. Hell, I semi-followed the stupid Michigan State search because I was worried.
As far as JP's silence, it's been less than 48 hours that the job opened up. Of course, he's not going to say anything.
I really think that Jamie would hire Nate with the idea that he'd be the best chance to keep things together. You could get Nate for pretty cheap and keep most of the offensive staff together. And you'd have a shot at keeping the players.
It's as good as any option we'd have.
Campbell leaving would be terrible for our football program.
I love Campbell and don’t want him to leave. But I’m not as dour about the situation this time around as I would have been after the Fiesta Bowl or the year after.
We’ve kind of settled into a 7-8 win team. Him leaving would gut the team for this year and next. But it could be rebuilt to that same level we were at this year with a good hire (e.g. him leaving wouldn’t block us from a prospective CFP berth next year like it would have after 2020).
And tbh, the recruiting class for this year was pretty underwhelming. It would suck to lose this young core, but a new coach could breathe some life into recruiting, and definitely get us back to a 7-8 win team in a couple years.
It’s a little premature to discuss replacement coaches. CMC is still the HC at ISU
Yeah I have no idea if he is or isn’t. My feel is he’d definitely be more willing to move this time around, given we’ve regressed some. I just didn’t think a higher tier program would be very interested in him.
If he does go to Washington, they’ve definitely been turned down by some guys imo. He’d be an attractive option C or D. But the fans and boosters will not be happy with that hire
Lol. It's a message board. It's never premature to discuss replacements.
They weren’t going to fire Sark but fans were absolutely questioning if he can take them to the next level and we’re starting to get restless.
Let’s be real, at almost any program after 5, 7, 7, 7, and 8 wins the “why should we settle for 7-6” voices get loud and they absolutely were at UW.
Yeah I don’t think they passed over the offensive coordinator to hire Campbell. I think they hire some sort of Pete Carroll assistant coach . Something like that
Silence is what we’ve ALWAYS gotten. Whether Campbell is or isn’t a candidate, there will be no noise from ISU’s side. My recollection is that extensions have always been negotiated and announced late, too.
I wonder if Scheelhasse would get a chance. Or, will JP go back to Toledo one more time and hire Candle?
Very good. Is there a thread about who we should hire for the replacement after this replacement leaves for another school?
Grubb already said he wanted the job but was passed over which I think is a huge mistake by UW
