Tim Lester's total yardage rankings at Elmhurst, WMU, St Joseph's, Devry, Peoria School of Puppetry

[Millhouse]

since being as bad as pariani is allowed due to injuries, we can look at prior years.

national rankings in offense
Elmhurts
2012 47th
2011 15th
2010 54th
2009 114th
2008 76th

2007 DC at some school i never heard of
WMU qb coach
2006 67th
2005 48th

one year at some dII st joe indiana
2004 68th in dII

as offensive coordinator at elmhurts
2003 49th
2002 unavailable - they weren't top 50

There are lots more dIII schools than dI but that also means there are lots more dIII coaches to hire

I keep reminding myself that shafer is going to be gone in a year or two so it won't matter soon enough. But still, what in the world are we doing?

Make it stop, please make it stop. Holy dude, I have never seen an assault like this. You need to move on. I think we get it!

 

[orange79]

We get it, already.

Let's see what the guy can do next year with his system in place. If he sucks and we suck, there will be a change at all levels of the staff. If things go ok, we can be happy. The schedule sets up well enough for a bowl. 3 cupcakes OOC and Wake, Pitt and BC all at the not nearly loud enough Loud House plus winnable road games at NC St and UVA. If we can't get six wins out of that, clean house

I personally enjoy banging my head against my desk

You have your domain names all lined up?

Love to see Lester do well running a bunch power run game just to see you and Otto stew.

That would be good times.

 

[MikeSU02]

Can you just make one thread titled "Millhouse uses numbers" and put all these into it?

I'm not joking. I don't care that you post all of this stuff, regardless of if I disagree or agree. I do think we should try to consolidate this stuff as much as possible, however, into one thread.

Just my opinion.

You know what's funny? You don't realize I'd love to see Lester do well too.

What happened to style over substance?

 

[Millhouse]

i think that's a silly way to frame it

Heaven forbid our fans get some entertainment and are allowed to have some fun.

 

[TheCusian]

There are 240+ teams in Div III. There are 128 Div I (bcs,sub bowl, whatever). If you take his last year as HC/OC at Elmhurst and work out the relative number - we'd be ranked #24 in offense. With a ranking of #29 in D.

That's squarely in the top 25 and the top 3rd of the ACC. Sounds good to me!

Thanks for your hard work on this .

I'm not the one who thinks it's better to lose pretty than win ugly.

 

[Millhouse]

that's also a silly way to frame considering how much we lose ugly

So what are you trying to tell us?

 

[TheCusian]

So what are you trying to tell us?

That we should be excited if he is as good as he was at Elmhurst. Or that the data is flawed.

 

[Millhouse]

So what are you trying to tell us?

that he's had one good year of offense as a coach

 

[GoSU96]

It's not my premise.

 

[TheCusian]

that he's had one good year of offense as a coach

Finishing in the top 30% most of his career is pretty good, IMO.

i think if we're going to go for dIII guys we should aim higher but when you gotta put the band back together, your options are limited

I get that familiarity isn't a great primary reason for hiring someone - but I do think that familiarity + competency gets many, many people hired/promoted in many fields all over the country.

someone evidently had to pull some strings to land that gig...
