Frank would be the 2nd coach in a row that no one else in the country would hire as their head coach but I am sure we are smarter than everyone else. Yeah, can we please put emotion aside and hire the best coach available? We have done the emotional hire for guys that nobody else wanted 3 times sin...

It’s one thing to recruit to Auburn and FSU, it’s another thing to recruit to USU. It reminds me of how MW was promoted to OC and then HC 1 year later. Too much too soon too fast. Yeah, the multiple years of sustained success we had with Matt Wells (with one outlier year) sure sucked. :lol: https:/...

https://twitter.com/westcoastfbfan/status/1333586833821868040?s=21 I hope this “older has been type” rumor is false or an attempt at humor. Someone like Helfrich getting the gig would piss me off. He managed to fail at Oregon. How bad would someone who failed with all the Nike money fail at a place...

Who is Jake Bentley - scratch that, better question - why would anyone on this message board care who Jake Bentley is? Lmao well Roy is really invested in Bentley's performance as a QB. Maybe you should ask him I can tell you this, calmdown, if you're a Ute fan, you should one of the first in the l...

Is the search tight-lipped or does the media just not care?

In past coaching search cycles there has been much more media buzz. Given that fact, I think Hartwell is intentionally keeping it close to the vest.

It seems there's a lot of scattered info amongst various threads mentioning which players are gone. I just wanted to summarize and compile it one place. (I'm not including walk-ons) CJ Pollard - SR (1st string at Safety) Terin Adams - SR (2nd/1st string at CB) Caden Andersen - SR (1st/2nd string DT...

Wish them both luck in the future unless they transfer to BYU or Utah. I won't be shocked when Jaylen lands at either school. I would be fairly surprised if he transferred to Utah. There is little, to no chance, he becomes a featured back and would most likely be a situational back. The only way I ...

What an odd year. I hope the new HC can bring in some high quality transfers to stem some of the bleeding.

I have maintained the OL has been an area of strength for us. As Peasley showed last night, with a competent QB this offense can be well balanced and score points. The good news is we will return most of the two deep at OL next season provided none transfer. The OL played good yesterday and deserve...

Way too small of a sample size to say definitively, but what’s your ideal 9 player rotation?

I'll take Chris Peterson, Billy Napier, Brian Johnson, Lance Anderson, Dan Enos I'll take Chris Peterson, Billy Napier, Brian Johnson, Lance Anderson, Dan Enos Yeah, I bet you would take Chris Peterson. We all would. But he’s gonna quit Washington and coach Utah State? That seems like a huge stretc...

My guess is we lean offensive coaches.

I have little idea what to expect from the Shockers. I'm excited for this USU squad and expect them to be very very good. My pick

USU: 78
Shockers: 69

Keep in mind one thing Hartwell is looking for is a CEO type head coach. Disclaimer I know nothing but some one from Bill Belicheck, Pete Caroll, Nick Saban, Dabo Swimney [emoji269] could be in play....

Best Coordinator Available (for us)-I think we've discussed FCS Coaches. As to Coordinators, is Avalos from Oregon our best bet or is it someone else?

Lance Anderson is another.

I have the same sentiment as many fans currently in that this is going to take years for us to recover from.

Not looking forward to being in the espn bottom 10 list for the next couple years.

We thought the same after Duryea left. I'm more bullish on a quick turnaround.

Two words: Derek dooley Two words: no thanks I’d entertain that idea. Other than the years that he inherited a complete train wreck and rebuild job at Tennessee, he’s done very well. Great offensive coach with a wealth of college and NFL experience. He’s still relatively young too. Yeah I was half ...

I'm probably in the minority, but I don't care. It won't hurt is to lose guys that don't have their mind right. We need unity now. We need guys that want to play for each other. I don't know Brownjeans. Put yourself in DT's shoes. You are a father. You're on your third coaching staff in as many yea...

I've got to think Bull Busch is a candidate. He's highly regarded at LSU & known as a dynamic recruiter. He is responsible for recruiting Alex Smith to Utah & Joe Burrow to LSU. Here's an article about him: https://columbustelegram.com/sports/college/steven-m-sipple-tip-of-the-cap-to-bill-busch-who...

Given that Troy Lefegend Jr. just entered the transfer portal, we need to make this hire fast. We will lose more good players if there isn't a sense of stability. Desire for stability is what got Andersen hired the second time. People thought he'd retire here. Stability shouldn't be the goal. If st...

It's not about stability.

Enlighten us what it's about.

I'm not a gentle apologetic but rAggie is one of us and has been posting here for some time. Can we all disagree without being disagreeable??? PLEASE.... Thank you my friends.

When name calling is involved everyone loses. "hack" and "dickhead" don't forward the conversation.

Taking a step back from this whole "respect Coach Maile" melodrama, I am looking forward to hearing more about who we are interviewing once those start. I am also wondering if there's a timeline for the hire. You want to take the time to do a thorough search but find somebody quickly to get recruit...

He was a good offensive line coach under GA 1.0. Did he take a turn for the worse with him? I don't think the OL has played badly this year. They seem to run block well. Pass blocking is tough when you have a QB that has zero pocket presence, but he's had enough time to throw. People generally thin...

I can't wait for 2004AG to decry the new HC when they get announced (assuming it isn't Jay Hill) ;-) Jay Hill: knows Utah, wants to live in Utah, took over a trainwreck and built them into a consistent winner. Frankly that best resume of guys I've seen based on that alone. Great recruiter. I think ...

How about the coastal Carolina or liberty coach? The Marshall coach has brought success. Liberty coach is Hugh Freeze ... Not sure I want that High Freeze would be an awesome hire!

For those who remember the last coaching search, I was trolling hard for Lance Anderson. Aside from the other positives people have mentioned, he is Stanford's top recruiter for Utah. Stanford has been getting more top recruits from Utah than Utah has in recent years, and Anderson is the reason for...
