Coach Search Options after Autry

[kingtidge]

As much as I cannot get super excited about the prospects of Gerry McNamara being the next head coach the range of outcomes is fascinating. If he wins, the Dome will be absolutely rocking and the fan base will be crazy. If he has similar success, or lack thereof to Autry, the program is going to be in a very dark place...and I will admit, we are in a pretty dark place currently.

Hopefully it works out for GMAC... would hate to see him go down in flames like Red did.

But if so, he will have kept the seat warm for Buddy/Jimmy Jr... unless Blair somehow pops our incest bubble??

I don't disagree, but if the winning happens with McNamara roaming the sidelines I think it will be rocking harder than it ever has.

I’ll [be] rock hard

That just isn't true. I know the keep it in the family people really want to believe that but if we are winning at a high level it will not matter who the coach is.

JB is a legend but it's time to enjoy retirement, he's not helping matters at all.

Exactly. Step back

So watching Hoiberg and Nebraska- there’s a lot of things this team does that’s very similar to what Langel does at Colgate… anyway we could pay enough to add Langel as an OC ? Lol

Splitting hairs. Generally, a guy fans have a connection with will get more support, all else equal.

I think this is him enjoying retirement.

Every freaking time we settle down a little

I really thought we were done with JB forever based on him only having some administrative office on the hill. Turns out that was wishful thinking.

He's like Moaning Myrtle roaming the castle...

I respectfully disagree. I am not a keep it in the family person at all. It's simple really, if someone you already adore gives you the results you greatly desire it means that much more.

I just don’t understand how anyone can objectively conclude GMac is the best candidate if they are serious about hiring the best coach available

That’s actually an amazing idea. GMAC and Langel would cook. I have very little confidence we can put together competency in all areas at the present. I hope my gut is very wrong.

He’s doing a really great job of being Logan Roy.

how many more articles and posts do we have to look at quoting Jeff Goodman. There has literally been nothing new in 3 days and no other reporter or anyone else relevant has said anything. Every article is like "Jeff Goodman thinks"

The best you can afford maybe

Your second pont is what you need to focus on. They aren't serious about hiring the best coach if they hire GMac. They are hiring him because of feelings nothing more

Really disappointing what he's starting to represent; he just can't help himself.

It’s sad to see old legends not step back and be quiet, but instead always have to state their opinion and come off as bitter, angry, a bit crazy and out of touch.

Rumors starting to swirl that GMac is the guy. Prepare yourselves. *not siting Curry Hicks Sage. The guy is a hack*

Jeff Goodman needs to take Hodgson agent out to dinner for making him relevant for the first time ever

Can we raise some NIL by selling Nate George's naming rights to Jablonski Auto Parts, LLC?

 

[phil77]

I blame Syracuse more than JB they are the ones that are enabling him. Spineless people.

Exactly totally agree.

Wait til 5 PM. A 30+ point uncompetitive game will take some steam out of their sails. This is coming from someone betting on him too. I hope he makes Duke look stupid.
