I'm voting bring back Lucifer Smith!
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Is o'l Lucifer still alive? Maybe he can get Mick D and Dave Arslainian to be his assistant coaches?

I will say that Mike Sanford Jr. as an OC to replace Yost (should he leave) would not be so bad.

Unless something EXTREMELY drastic where to happen to change peoples minds... Gary will not be the head coach here. But you're more than welcome to continue discussing

I think there is a lot more to the story about what happened at Oregon State. I doubt GA is ever a head coach again and don't think I want him in Logan

I mean didn't he approach Wells last year about some type of assistant job here??? I don't think him coming here would be too far fetched....

Re: is it too soon to start another GA coming back to USU thread?
There isn't. He was failing at his job, was completely stressed out, and felt horrible about not living up to expectations. He couldn't keep going as the status quo and had to do what he felt was the right thing.

I'm not trying to be an a$$hole (believe me I'm not) but it's really not for me to say. The issue is a private matter and I'll leave it at that. Not to toot my own horn but I think I've built up enough credibility among my fellow board members that when I say there is more to the story, there is more to the story. I hope you all understand.BigBlue32 wrote: ↑November 28th, 2018, 4:24 pmaggies22 wrote: ↑November 28th, 2018, 4:23 pmI'm not sure if this post is serious or not.

Re: is it too soon to start another GA coming back to USU thread?
What about Jay Hill from Weber State. I think he would be an amazing coach. Obviously Yost is great, but I don’t think he will be sticking around.

Re: is it too soon to start another GA coming back to USU thread?
Couple questions for 22.
You do realize:
He rebuilt a train wreck in only four seasons and left a group of players that went to the MWC chipper?
He knows Utah and the Poly community better than anyone except maybe Sitake?
and...
We may have a football Stew situation where Gary's been around and now knows he'd stay in Logan till he retires.
So given these factors and your still saying "no way" ....we must be talking about something fairly serious. Right?

I'm actually really smart, probably smarter than you are so if you disagree with what I have stated in this post, you are likely wrong (and dumb).

Gary bombed hard at Oregon State. The coach the Aggies hired in 2009 is not the same that you would be getting in 2018. There are better options if Wells leaves.BigSkyAG wrote: ↑November 28th, 2018, 5:41 pmCouple questions for 22.

Re: is it too soon to start another GA coming back to USU thread?
Gary did not walk away from all that money at OSU because he felt terrible as a failure. Way more to that story than we know. I'll take '22 at face value on this one. I have heard rumors and overtures but nothing concrete. But that ship has sailed.
