Joe Moorhead for next HC

Dino seems like he has PTSD
Clinically, no (I realize you didn't mean it literally). But, I do agree that all the losing - he has lost 17 of the last 20 - has negatively impacted his identity of who he thought he was as a coach. He now seems overwhelmed by all the losing, is likely questioning his ability, and is making things worse by making out of character in game decisions. I feel bad for Dino.
 
you can see a defensive coordinator White being retained and choosing to stay. While Babers hired him he’s not a Babers guy and smart people know who to hook their wagons to. Monroe would certainly leave. Chip west is another guy I could see being retained and staying. Marrone being an offensive guy would look closely at the success of the D. The offensive side of the ball would be totally gutted and that’s fine.
IF Marrone were to even consider coming back - I think that is unlikely - he would demand complete autonomy with the entire program, including all hiring decisions. I'm not saying that White should not be considered (he has proven himself), just that the decision would be Marrones.
 
Yes for sure. He’s been good but if they land a guy like Marrone he’s gonna have a massive ego and his own guys he will be think can do better
He didn't have his own guy as DC the first time around. I would think that Marrone would watch film on the team and then interview the assistants. If he thought they were worthy he would keep them.

Doug likes to win, and if he felt that The defense under White would help him win, he would try to keep him.

100%.

He's a my way or the highway guy.

If he's coming back, it's not to get huggy and collaborative to find solutions together.

I don't think anyone is suggesting it wouldn't be. It usually is completely left up to the head coach who his assistants are. When it isn't, that's usually a bad sign for the coach.

So to be clear folks are upset that we missed out on a candidate that was so good that he went to Akron? Really?
 
Rule of thumb is take what is said here with a grain of salt.
Absolutely.

Moorhead apparently was not interested in the UConn job but is interested in Akron. That can't be good for our friends in Storrs.
 
If that’s what you got out of that….. sure.
Whitey said Akron beats Wildhack. That suggests disappointment. I have seen a few other posts with similar thoughts. So yep...that is what I got.

better talent base.
 
Wildhack should be trying to steal him either as new OC with Head Coach in waiting or just pull the band aide off now & make him the head coach...Akron is probably paying him $1.5/year
 
If moorhead goes to akron over cuse it would only be because he’s afraid he can’t win at those places and it would destroy his chance at a high D1 job
 
I think people over value Moorhead because we are so desperate to win.
His overall record is 52-25 & he is a northeast guy but lets keep the guy who is 29-43...I think people just want to try something different at this point
 
At a minimum, get him at OC like he was at PSU with the keys to the HC job if Dino screws up which will happen.
