When has there ever been a slam dunk candidate for BYU?

ataylor

True, but so far he's 2-10, 6-5, 7-5, 11-3, 10-3, 1-2. Notice the upward...

Also, his 2 losses this year came in close road games to SDSU and Nevada.

That's called "punching above your weight". Can anyone see that need @ BYU?

BleedCougarBlue2

Every September for the foreseeable future

Weber was on NCAA probation when Hill took over.. (reduced Scholarships)

And it's a clean program now, correct? If so, that's another plus for him.

BleedCougarBlue2

10/3/19 10:44am

From what i've seen... Its a great program...

TheLost

Clean program: Bonus! Side note: That's a Division II locker room? Man!, how..

(Technically is a D1 program... FCS)

TheLost

Ok, but any way you say it, they are a smaller program than BYU. That locker...

Crowton. Success as an HC with LA Tech and a respectable stint as an NFL OC.

10/3/19 10:32am

That was the only one that came to my mind as well. Not a good sign.

ataylor

10/3/19 10:35am

Hmmm....IMO very doubtful the BoT would give him a 2nd chance due to so....

BleedCougarBlue2

10/3/19 10:47am

I didn't say he should be rehired, only that he was a slam dunk hire at the time

vagabonder

10/3/19 10:48am

Gotcha.

Whittingham in 2005 was the most slam dunk candidate ever

donnerstag

10/3/19 10:35am

Sure. I was thinking more of guys with head coach experience, but yeah.

ataylor

10/3/19 10:43am

While he didn't have HC experience, BYU was competing with Utah

donnerstag

10/3/19 10:47am

Right.

10/3/19 10:50am

Whitt struggled in the beginning of PAC. Depth helps.

Crowton was about as slam dunk as could be as OC for the Bears

If Sitake ends up being done, I'll bet it's >90% chance Jay Hill gets the job.

RdF3

10/3/19 10:24am

Sources close to Jay Hill say that he doesn't want the BYU job

donnerstag

10/3/19 10:37am

Maybe he really does think that, but once an actual job is offered and the contract is put on the table, I bet he would

RdF3

10/3/19 10:39am

Even if he'd be interested, he doesn't have a track record coaching

donnerstag

10/3/19 10:41am

And the coach with a winning track record at the FBS level is ....

BYU Fan

10/3/19 10:45am

I agree, but I think he’d be the most impressive candidate.

RdF3

10/3/19 10:47am

Paul Peterson should get a look

donnerstag

10/3/19 10:51am

How's he doing at Dixie?

BleedCougarBlue2

10/3/19 10:52am

He's 3-1 so far

donnerstag

10/3/19 10:54am

Looks like he's doing it with poor QB play too...

mokelembembe

10/3/19 11:14am

He’s who I’d have hired at offensive coordinator both after 2015 and 2017.

ataylor

10/3/19 10:55am

Would you rather hire an FBS HC with a "losing" record? Not me. Winners win.

BleedCougarBlue2

10/3/19 10:51am

Yeah, but would you really want a him? The next coach needs to have a vision

Pasadena

10/3/19 10:45am

He may not want to worry about all the extra hassles at BYU

"My" expectations (long range)....9+ wins a season, beat Utah at least 50% of..

Even if you take out Kalani's 0-4 start

displacedute

Nope. Win at least half the games. That's how you maintain a true rivalry,...

BleedCougarBlue2

10/3/19 7:31pm

You're setting yourself up for some very frustrating decades.

displacedute

10/3/19 9:47pm

So you obviously expect me to roll over and die? My expectations are mine.

BleedCougarBlue2

10/4/19 2:30pm

I told you that your own expectations are your prerogative.

displacedute

Unless Weber State is his dream job....

Doubtful. He's young and competitive. What kind of young, winning, competetive
