Alamo City Husker Posted January 6, 2012 Author Share Posted January 6, 2012 I am writing this before it is hitting the wires. I heard it on the radio during the Spurs game. Quote Link to comment
WoodyHayes1951 Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Don't know what to make of this hire. Have no idea who the guy is or if he can recruit. Must've been the 34th choice in the BoT checklist. 1 Quote Link to comment

HuskerShark Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 What the!!! I thought they were going to hire Bo Quote Link to comment
Husker John Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 David Joyner, Penn State AD - " Pat, are you going to keep anybody on the current coaching staff that may have remotely suspected Sandusky of improprieties?" Pat O'Brien - " I intend to fire every coach that is currently on the Penn State staff ." David Joyner, Penn State AD - " You're hired." Quote Link to comment
walksalone Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 This guy has to realize, that he's just signed on to one of the most difficult HC jobs in recent history... Quote Link to comment
Notre Dame Joe Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 This guy has to realize, that he's just signed on to one of the most difficult HC jobs in recent history... The last Pats OC can warn him about the most difficult one. Quote Link to comment
Muck Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 The last Pats OC can warn him about the most difficult one. A halfway competent coach would do fine in South Bend. Luckily ND is unlikely to ever hire one. 1 Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 The Bill Belichick coaching tree continues to expand - Charlie Wiess, Romeo Crennel, Eric Mangini, Josh McDaniels ... all with great success as HCs. At least McDaniels figured it out and is going back to New England. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Larry Johnson is staying. Sounds like that might be the only one retained. Quote Link to comment

NUance Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 The Bill Belichick coaching tree continues to expand - Charlie Wiess, Romeo Crennel, Eric Mangini, Josh McDaniels ... all with great success as HCs. At least McDaniels figured it out and is going back to New England. Plus a couple of fellas named Nick Saban and Kirk Ferentz. Quote Link to comment

At least McDaniels figured it out and is going back to New England. I wouldn't say that any of those guys have had "great" success as head coaches, but the amount of Belichick assistants who have become head coaches is very impressive. Quote Link to comment

I might be wrong but I think it was intended as sarcastic because none of those guys had success as head coaches. That's why he said at least McDaniels figured it out and is going back to New England. Quote Link to comment
