I hope that donors pay Jay whatever he would make as a head coach to keep him.

Kalani has the culture right but just like KY, needs really good assistant coaches to keep us nationally relevant.

yes we can, yes we need to be, but he'll get a $5M+ HC offer somewhere....

Coog4Life

2:58pm

Where do you see him going?

iknownothing

3:48pm

I have no inside info, just guessing he’ll be a hot commodity

Coog4Life

3:51pm

I'd be very surprised if he got that kind of offer after one great P4 season

tacallaway

3:59pm

If I were him, I'd steer clear of a high stress HC position and

Agreed. He had a real wake up call a few weeks ago.

5 million dollars is a lot of money

True for most people but if you know Jay at all you know he's hyper competitive

I want them to hire Hugh Freeze, just so I can hate them even more

darkcoug

2:58pm

Oh please let this happen. That would fulfill a math teacher’s wildest dream!

kalifi

3:37pm

Why would he leave Auburn for Utah?

threezeroeight

3:40pm

Auburn would be letting him go-he needs a place to land.

kalifi

3:45pm

Because Auburn loves to pay fired coaches almost as much as Notre Dame does

darkcoug

BYU can be competitive. We are going to find another 20+ million dollars next yr

My Aggie son is dreaming of Jay Hill too...

Pete

Ok, that’s just cute. Haha

Swag Kazekage

Opening the wallet for the basketball program has made me much more optimistic

vagabonder

3:00pm

Plus why would Hill want to work for someone that has less head coaching

UnoDoctor

5:45pm

We REALLY need coach Hill to be the Ken Schmidt / Norm Chow / Roger French to

jaba166

7:41pm

Are they hoping for Whitt to hang it up and dreaming of a new Moses or do they

Hoopster

3:02pm

No…just pining for Hill to leave BYU because they can’t stand for us to be good on D.

iknownothing

3:05pm

I can't see those SEC/ACC schools hiring a DC as their new HC.

dYrtbYkerYder

3:04pm

And I can definitely see a scenario where a guy who had a recent heart attack

dYrtbYkerYder

3:05pm

From your lips to Jay’s wife’s ears!

iknownothing

3:08pm

That’s where I am at, but not sure that list will be the list of openings at the end of the season.

iknownothing

3:06pm

I think instate jobs are going to be the most attractive to him but I don't

pinolero

3:05pm

Agreed. Heard his wife isn’t big on moving across the country…

iknownothing

3:07pm

Yeah, what if CU loses Deion and they throw a large bag at him?

Huge Manatee

3:10pm

At least a dime bag.

pinolero

3:18pm

North Carolina and Baylor

carlstud

3:07pm

Why? Not debating, just curious.

iknownothing

3:08pm

Because Mack Brown is old and lost to Duke and JMU (giving up 70 points) this

russkiejedi

3:12pm

Oh, I was more asking why you think Jay would

iknownothing

3:13pm

You asked who you were missing that was on the hot seat. You asked a few ?s

russkiejedi

3:15pm

Oh. I listed both UNC and Baylor. It’s all good.

iknownothing

3:22pm

I wonder how much his heart attack will affect his decision

NorthernCougar

3:13pm

Shouldn't Sitake be getting offers after this season? He is the HC after all.

astroman

3:14pm

I think our fan’s perspective may blind us

iknownothing

3:27pm

There’s no threat to Kalani leaving. Hes staying in Utah.

Mjolnir

5:59pm

Recent recruits are saying Jay Hill is committed to staying.

rad dawg

3:17pm

I’m with you. $$ as a DC shouldn’t be a worry.

iknownothing

3:29pm

Don't know how to ask this but would him having a heart attack make it less

futbolmaven

When I first read this I was thinking "Heart Attack" like how the YW heart

CougaRR4L

Baylor would make a lot of sense imo

cougfanz

A heart attack can change ambitions for advancement to a head coaching posotion

iknownothing

Agree, Norvell is safe… and I’d be shocked if Freeze got fired this year.

BamaCoug

4:09pm

Does he have an Assistant HC title yet? Make it so and pay the man

Gunga Galunga

4:12pm

He is associate head coach right now I think.

iknownothing

4:47pm

If we are forking over 5-9 million for one year for bball player AJ, then we can pay Hill to stay

BYU Grounds

4:38pm

Do Hills heart issues play into him taking a HC job? I think it might

CT98

4:45pm

He deserves more than BYU will pay

RE: He deserves more than BYU will pay

iknownothing

BYU has zero debt and now is making a lot more money. They can pay fine.

dYrtbYkerYder

4:54pm

Nope. That’s old BYU. Money isn’t a problem anymore

deliciousmocha

6:05pm

How many D1 coordinators make as much as a D1 coach?

caretoomuch

6:22pm

OP has the range for the top 10 DCs in college.

iknownothing

6:32pm

Thanks. So why would he take $2 to stay instead of $5 to leave?

caretoomuch

6:41pm

That’s the whole purpose of this speculative thread. Who really knows but Jay?

iknownothing

6:52pm

Pay Hill and forget about AJ

True. Why not right?

I hope that donors pay Jay whatever he would make as a head coach to keep him.

Nice, thoughtful answer. Thanks!

Baylor worries me the most
