[QUOTE="PhatOrange, post: 273739, member: 229"]
I'm well aware of Hackett's resume or else I wouldn't make such a statement.  And just because the guy was 'bred' to be a coach doesn't make him good.  I also doubt he knows anymore about football than any other Coordinator or proven QB coach.
 
Here's his resume:  We are basically his firt gig and he's doing the two most important things - OC/QB
 
2011-Present  Offensive Coordinator/QB/TE - Syracuse
2010 Quarterbacks - Syracuse
 
2008-09 Offensive Quality Control Coach - Buffalo Bills
2006-07 Offensive Quality Control Coach - Tampa Bay
 
2005 Recruiting Coordinator/Specialist - Stanford
2004 Offensive/Defensive Coordinator ASSISTANT - Stanford
2003 Offensive ASSISTANT - Stanford
Spring 2003 ASSISTANT LB Coach - Cal Davis 
 
In my opinion that resume does not qualify you to be the Offensive Coordinator for a BCS program.  Those assistant positions are volunteer and the Offensive QA jobs don't mean didly to being an O-Coordinator.  The guy hasn't even Coordinated a D3 offense before and while I COMPLETELY agree that execution is a HUGE problem with our offense that doesn't excuse the person who's running it.
 
If you get any coach more Ashton Broyld's they'll look like a genius.  I'm more impressed when a coach is able to move the football and score points without needing these types of players.  Teams like Toledo don't have any Ashton Broyld's but they run systems that are more cohesive which the players CAN execute.
 
And to your last question OP, the only thing I need to know if Hackett can recruit or not are the results.  Period.  I don't care how great he is sitting on a living room couch, or how personable he is on the phone.  The results speak for themselves, he gets a big fat zero.
