I understand that logic, and am not saying its wrong
Always reminds me of Jack's interview about Tiger passing his majors record, from a 2015 interview:I love coach B and everything he has done since he set foot on campus.. that being said, we need him to win 8 or more games first before we have this conversation or worry about anyone poaching him. Put me in the camp of welcoming the Coach Underwood to K-State talk last year
I don’t know that Self was looking for a reason to leave, but no way he was turning down the Kansas job and Kansas was going to pay whatever it took. It’s pretty obvious Self wasn’t going to be hamstrung by an AD that insisted on following the letter of the law when it comes to recruiting. I wonder if the NCAA would have given us the death penalty if Self did what he did at Kansas here. They would have come down hard without a doubt. And it’s been long known what was happening there before the FBI blew the lid on it.
And KU still won a NCAA title last year.....Who says cheating isn't rewarded.................Townsend is the poster boy for bagmen before it became legal.........
My guess is that the $19 million came with certain caveats — most likely it would be contingent upon him not landing another P5 job and/or paid out over an extended period of time. By agreeing to reduce it to $11 million, he gets that amount paid in full by February next year and likely can work somewhere else and keep it all.
He doesn’t strike me as the commentator type. He’s a bit of a Mumbly Joe.I am sure the pressure to win was crazy.
Add in Covid-19 seasons, the transfer portal, NIL$ and Chryst said to himself its not fun anymore. I have plenty of money. If I want to keep coaching I can go be an offensive coordinator at another P5 school and make $1M-$2M a year and not have deal with this.
Tracking the highest-paid coordinators in college football heading into 2021
The list of the highest paid coordinators in college football always undergoes some changes year to year, but heading into the 2021, without a full look at somefootballscoop.com
Maybe do some ESPN commentary for a year.
I looked through Chryst's background a bit and seems he has been a TE coach, QB coach, and OC. I was wondering whether there would ever be a day where he would join BB's staff and what he would bring to it. But you're right, probably not worth considering when he has the resume to get another head job if he wants it.
It doesn't appear Self followed the spirit of the law, either. Let's not gloss that over.
Colorado could do a lot worse with their next HC hire than Paul Chryst, imo .
You want someone who has a good plan that's a good fit and is going to hire a great staff toward that outcome.
As an Oregon State fan, Anderson had much bigger issues than trying to play Wisky ball. And he was at Wisconsin for two years. Not sure I’d call what he brought to Corvallis Wisky ball.
if Patterson is up for a 5 year committment, hes a no brainer for CU. Not sure hes up for that though
I mean maybe old school ground-and-pound is the right thing to do at that school, you'd have to make that assessment. Or maybe Chryst would want to change his philosophy. You do the assessment in the hiring process. But the fit seems weird to me at a glance.
I mean that kind of reveals the problem. Patterson was at the absolute pinnacle of the profession in a way his loyalty to TCU kind of belies. He could have had any job out there in 2010.
It has worked fine for Utah in the PAC 12. Maybe not strictly ground and pound, but a balanced offense. They had about the same amount of yards on the ground as they did in the air last year.
there is almost ALWAYS a backstory to these things. just as Chryst's quick firing and quick settlement undoubtedly has a backstory . We will likely never hear the truth
Considering he is currently coaching College football…I’d say he is probably open to it
The Iowa coaching change is going be very similar to Kansas states when Snyder retired
