Are our names dissimilar enough or should I do a rebrand since you’re the original lol

How in the hell is Calhoun able to retain Haslam and Brown?

Love it! He’s proven that he can build winners!!

Retaining those coaches and players would make me team Jerrod Calhoun pretty goddamn fast.

Hire Dixon too and I am sold.

Yo if he really keeps especially Haslam then count me all the way in. An overseas recruiting pipeline would do wonders for Utah State.

Don't be playing with my heart strings, this better not be a joke.

If this ends up being true, then who the heck is this guy?

Someone is going to have to convince me here. Looking at his record, why are we excited about this, but we're not excited about Toledo Tod? Doesn't look like he has had any post season success, has been good but not great in a weak conference.

Well, if he’s going to retain staff and the players listed that’s a lot to like already.

I would generally agree. Took him quite a while to show true progress at Youngstown and I'd be worried about him sustaining any long term success. But if he keeps Haslam and the core then my opinion is different.

So we could hire Eric Duft and everyone would immediately jump on board if he retained the coaching staff and players?

The worst part of it is that you correct me -then the next time I still do it wrong!
I just forget.
It's all good - at least you're not a dick about it.

Is retaining Haslam and Brown. Sounds like we might be keeping Osobor, Martinez, Falslev, Uduje and Johnson will probably bring a 7'3" Freshman.

I'm very happy if true.

Calhoun's current contract says that he's not able to recruit any of the same HS players of he takes a new job.

I am not sure that we are in the running for anyone who would impress some of you guys. Some have said he reminds them of Smith before coming here.

We have yet to dissect his offensive and defensive numbers, so we have lots to learn about him before jumping to conclusions.

Mogy21 · Post by **Mogy21** » March 29th, 2024, 7:22 pm

Have we heard about what Johnny Hill is doing? Did he follow sprinkle? Could he possibly be on the staff at usu going forward?

bluegrouse · Post by **bluegrouse** » March 29th, 2024, 7:22 pm

If he’s able to keep all those players, they must see something in him.

It might mean he can recruit well, which is basically half the job at this point. And now player retention is equally as important as recruiting. He built a legitimate winner at the D2 level.

Do I think there were better candidates on paper? I would hope so given the state of the program, but it would be off to a start that I can at least buy in to.

To be clear I am absolutely willing to give him a chance. I certainly don't hate it. I just want someone to tell me why I should be excited. What makes this a good hire beyone him keeping the old staff and retaining players.

I kind of always thought that hiring a coach because they are likely to keep the players around was not a great long term play. And so far that is they only reason anyone has given me to be excited.

If it was a former assistant keeping players, that would be one thing. But a new guy keeping a team is impressive if he can pull it off.

Too much judgement on previous records and not enough faith in the notion that our program, spectrum, and the fans elevate coaches ability to recruit better players from their previous jobs. IMO
