I think Miss St feels like they need to keep ahead of the game, but I don't see any splash hires sitting out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly... who can you pay that would be a splash hire? If you can find a Herm Edwards that can coach and motivate, then there’s your guy who would be great at Ms St... but who else is there to even consider?

Coach Rab Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Seriously though, Kiffen won’t do anything more than Freeze did. The guy you just fired was literally Dan Mullen 2.0. Which is the most you can ask for in that state imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would consider that a compliment . Right now Ole miss is trending upward and has some good experience on the staff. The potential is very high if you believe the hype. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That showed a lack of team discipline that I’m guessing the powers that be at MSU weren’t willing to tolerate. I’m curious to see who they hire.

MeanGreenDogs64 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 We (North Texas) fired the OL and DL coach too. Looks like we will have new OC, DC, OL, and DL coaches this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. P Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Like I've said elsewhere: these kinds of impulsive firings only make sense a.) if you've already got an "ideal" candidate waiting in the wings due to the good ol' boy network, or 2.) there's a big name splash hire available you plan to money-whip. Most of the time neither is the case, so programs end up settling for someone no better than the guy they just fired, which only puts their program further behind. Has there ever been a case where a program fired someone who was adequate (but not great), then hired some no-name who turned out awesome? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lobo97 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 I, for one, don't understand why so many have put Matt Rhule on such a high pedestal. Did he improve Baylor's overall record, of course. But against whom? We all know that overall, the B12 was awful this year. He had 4 wins in 3 seasons against teams with a winning record...the best being 8-5. Did he increase excitement at Baylor again? Sure. I'm just not sure that's all it would take for me to hire him to lead my NFL team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a stretch. All I’ve seen on the internets about him is how he’s a culture changer, a team builder. Guess we’ll see how that translates in the NFL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Champ1000 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Joey McGuire former Cedar Hill HC is the favorite so it seems. Baylor probably should go that route instead of bringing someone new in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PelvisPresley Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Yes, Leach may be a bit too aloof (one that would say anything, too unpredictable) for the re-installed Christian environment of Baylor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess we’ll see how that translates in the NFL. Playing devil's advocate, I think it's because of 1.) how quick Baylor turned it around, 2.) how closely they played the "big boys" of the conference, 3.) while Baylor's recruiting didn't necessarily set the world on fire, Rhule developed the kids he had, which resulted in 1.) and 2.) which is something that not everyone in the Big XII can claim. But yeah, not sure how his short-term success is seen as a sure bet in the NFL. There have been many far more accomplished college coaches who never did squat in the NFL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
