It's an intriguing proposition, but if we are hiring Sitake I think that hiring
Ty as the OC is pressing our luck in regard to gambling on young coaches (to steal an analogy from Shimmy).

The idea that a 14-year NFL QB isn't qualified to be a D-1 OC is nuts.

Why?

Especially when stated by those who complain that he's only a HS head coach

Why? I can't think of one successful OC who was a 14 yr NFL QB.

How about a 14-yr NFL QB who spent 2 yrs as an NFL QB coach before being HC?

OC because of his playing career is nuts. I would love to take the risk and

Some are, some aren't. Gretzky coached a bad org. but won a gold medal as coach

I do not subscribe to the theory that Detmer would succeed as an OC without

No.... No it's really not

I'll side Lavell on this one.

Link?

Heard Lavell say it on 1280 last week.

Say what? That BYU would be nuts not to hire Detmer as the OC?
srey

Ty would be a fantastic OC for BYU. Not ready for HC, but would be a great OC.
VenetianCougar

I'll have to look that up. Sounds incorrect.

Playing and coaching are completely different skills

Still not convinced. He's a great candidate for a QB coaching position with us.
srey
12/18/15 7:55am
I'd take the risk at OC based on his body of work. That's all I'm saying
Saxa
12/18/15 7:56am
His body of work does not include any experience in college coaching.
srey
12/18/15 7:59am
I would liken it more with taking a successful president of a small business
Saxa
12/18/15 8:10am
I can agree with that. I think Ty could be great, but I am also risk averse.
srey
12/18/15 8:13am
Absolutely understand
Saxa
12/18/15 9:57am
QB coach for Ty is totally insulting.
VenetianCougar
12/18/15 8:01am
Why?
srey
12/18/15 8:02am
He's more overqualified to be QB coach than Mitt is to be President of the USA.
VenetianCougar
12/18/15 8:06am
He's overqualified for a position that is 3 steps above the highest coaching job
srey
12/18/15 8:08am
He's way overqualified to be a BYU QB coach. NFL QB coach, fine.
VenetianCougar
12/18/15 8:29am
In what ways? Please don't take this as a criticism. It is more of a critique.
srey
12/18/15 8:36am
I'm sure you know my arguments and just reach a different conclusion
VenetianCougar
12/18/15 10:25am
How many 22 year old qb coaches are there? Very very few.
srey
12/18/15 10:34am
Well they don't stay 22 for more than a year but many start very young (24, 25)

Your posts on this topic remind me of some of these.
srey
12/18/15 11:02am
To be clear, he may be a terrible OC. Who knows?
VenetianCougar
12/18/15 11:30am
Yes, you provided all the detail I should have included
VenetianCougar
12/18/15 8:02am
I agree

Wrong. That is a good start, but a lot more is required. My guess is Ty is

IMO, being a 14-year NFL QB doesn't necessarily qualify one to be a D1 OC
CopperLix
12/18/15 8:10am
But can he transfer that knowledge to 18-24 year old kids at every position?

I would feel more comfortable starting him as qb coach, but I still believe he

Equating playing experience to coaching experience is what is really nuts.

Yea, but how much experience has he had on CougarBoard where true expertise is
