Jeff Grimes no longer coming.

wildlandfireguy

12/6/23 5:28pm

Is he going to New Mexico?

BYUheaven

12/6/23 5:31pm

Was he ever really?

WJCougar

12/6/23 5:32pm

No, but it was close. Couldn’t come to terms on contract length and assistants.

Mjolnir

Grimes loves Grinds?

I don’t believe that’s a thing anymore.

Are non-LDS faculty required to live the Word of Wisdom in their homes?

No, doesn’t want to commit to 3-year contract.

Mjolnir

Um, really? Like the length of contract matters to any coach?

well, of course he got more money somewhere else. It was an OC job over OL job

fattycoug

Assistants? He’s the OL coach

YIsForBrigham

What assistants? Why would an OL coach have assistants?

Is it because grimes wanted to bring Ryan Pugh and BOT said no due to

This is a real shame. I thought we were one of the big boys now.

DawgHaus

Maybe BYU should just cut out the O Line and TE coaching positions completely. That should save some pretty good bucks.

He was at TCU and a GA at North Carolina and Houston before going to Snow

He’s a better coach than Grimes.

So looks like Grimes was stringing BYU along to get the OC position at Kansas

This being reported?

Yes, I saw it on ESPN.

CameronG

12/7/23 11:52am

I wouldn't call it stringing along if he's gotten a better position/pay

DirtyWater

For some reason he did not want to take a pay cut and a demotion. To figure?

I'm rather shocked he landed another OC position, unless their HC is gonna be heavily involved in schemes

CLCougar

HonestTakes

12/7/23 2:00pm

And their offense was explosive, not things I associate with Grimes' offenses

CameronG

12/7/23 2:03pm

Exactly. It's a headscratching hire IMO, unless there's an understanding his focus is on Oline and Run game and Liepold
