HC Candidate/Rumors/Info Thread

[GTBandit22]

Have to believe the first call Lville made went to West Lafayette, IN.
Brohm obviously has interest but timing / opportunity wasn’t to his liking last time. Does he still believe he can win bigger at Purdue? It sounded like his big reservation last time around was hanging Purdue out to dry... this time he probably feels like the program is in a good place.
If Brohm leaves the Big Ten for an ACC spot, is that a sign of doom for the BIG? Hardly...
It might be a bad time for us to have them paired up as permanent rivals though... Brohm-led Lville is going to be a handful.

Talk about lucking out if it happens. Getting a buyout from a coach you’re unhappy with and bringing home a much better coach and prodigal son.
I do not want to face a Brohm led team every year

even if it’s not p5 the cincy job is just as good as basically all the non factories. i think it’s gotta be one of the top 20 jobs in the country and the only schools i’d have above it are guys like uga, clemson, bama, ohio state, oregon, usc, notre dame etc.

it would be far more depressing to see in conference talent being poached by schools like vandy or rutgers and they are p5

Or it could go all Scott Frosty and bite the prodigal son right in the keister. Just a possibility.

I do like Brohm for UoL either way.

Cincinnati is going to be in the Big 12 next year. They will never be a G5 team under Satterfield.

So it's a bad look that Satterfield is going from Louisville to a program that was in the final 4 last year, went 9-3 this year with losses to UCF, Tulane, and Arkansas (with Ark being their worst loss), and will be in the Big12 the first time his team sets foot on the field? Just checking to make sure I understand the logic you're trying to apply.

I’m not sure I understand what you’re checking in on?

Jeff Brohm from Perdue is the rumored leader for the UL job, also Dan Mullins being mentioned, if I had to guess I would say they will be better next season

In the case of Brohm, not sure why you would go from a Big Ten school to ACC.

Oh crap that's my bad. I quoted the wrong post and didn't check carefully enough before I hit "Post Reply." I'm sorry about that. It was the post you were replying to that I meant to quote and I had both yours and the other one in my quotes and removed the wrong one.

I think he's a Perdue alum also, so it seems like a weird move

Played and graduated from UL. Also from there.

I never said he was terrible, he was just ‘OK’. My biggest argument is that he didn’t “elevate” Louisville’s program at all, which is what you originally said. If Petrino won 9 games there, Satterfield would’ve had to have win 9 more times than Petrino, or get to 10 wins at some point. He did neither, and he never even won 9 games. He also went winless against Kentucky, who Petrino went 3-2 against.

I just see no scenario or support to say that Satterfield elevated Louisville’s program to heights it’s never been before, or even been to in recent memory. His best season was about on par for what Petrino did there for 5 years, and close to what Louisville has averaged since 2000, even if the bulk of that was against lesser competition. Plus, the biggest dagger against Satterfield at UofL is that he lost to Geoff Collins. Hard to argue someone is a good coach when that happens.

You win.

Hard to argue against that...

 

[UgaBlows]

I would have expected a bigger name hire than Kelly for DC, and don’t get me wrong I like coach Kelly he was solid to average but def not spectacular as a DC at FSU with a lot of talent to play with.

 

[JacketFan137]

Regardless of what you think of his words, Deion is making some good moves right now. I think he's building a strong staff and that was a big question mark with him. To me, he's an exciting but equally scary hire and I could see it going either way. However, looks to have a process and plan so far

he has stated that he is not honoring any commitments from the previous staff and some people are saying that’s the wrong thing to do. honestly he’s doing those kids a favor cause he’s about to have an army of transfers and commitments flipped in the coming days.

i bet we couldn’t meet his salary demands so i’m not really mad at batt or tech, but i think the people that thought he would be unsuccessful are gonna be eating some crow

It’s going to be incredibly hard to have any-kind of team cohesion with a roster full of transfers and new recruits

 

[iceeater1969]

We can begin with SP+

1. SEC: 14.6 average SP+ (34.7 average offensive SP+, 20.6 average defensive SP+)
2. Big 12: 12.6 average SP+ (36.7 offense, 24.4 defense)
3. Big Ten: 9.1 average SP+ (28.0 offense, 19.0 defense)
4. Pac-12: 6.1 average SP+ (34.6 offense, 28.5 defense)
5. ACC: 2.2 average SP+ (27.5 offense, 25.5 defense)

Second, here are side by side FEI ratings. I don't see how we can possibly say we are top to bottom equal to B1G. Our bottom half might be competitive with their bottom half, but their top half is a head above ours and it isn't close.

B1G Rank	Team	ACC Rank	Team
2	Mich	10	FSU
3	OSU	21	Clemson
9	PSU	26	Louisville
16	Minn	39	Wake
17	Illinois	43	Pitt
27	Maryland	48	Duke
31	Iowa	51	Cuse
37	Wisconsin	52	NC State
40	Purdue	55	UNC
60	MichSt	93	GT
72	Indiana	94	UVA
75	Nebraska	95	Miami
88	Northwestern	100	VT
97	Rutgers	101	Boston College

The acc better up its game .
We have a tv contract that pays us $$$$. Are we doing our part ( donations, etc)
?

Tstan and cgc took all the recruits that came to play in the Option. Too nice?

 

[Randy Carson]

Give Deion this, the man continues to think outside of the box. Got a HFC from an FBS school to leave to become OC of a P5 school.

Seems like a logical progression to me.

HC at a small school moves up to be OC at a P5 before moving up to HC at a P5. Probably hoping to get back to Wisconsin at some point.

Under Kelly, FSUs DFEI was 38, 18, 12, and 17. If this is average I'll gladly take average.

 

[Oldgoldandwhite]

And now it looks like Cincinnati wants Satterfield from Louisville ( our 1 st game next year)

I’ll allow it.

 

[Mattmc10]

i mean they were arguably the worst p5 team last year and went 1-11. im not sure they had any cohesion with a roster full of players they coached and developed. deion is making the right decision. they need talent in there ASAP. you can figure out the rest later

USC went to the Pac-12 champ game with 26 transfers, they'll be fine. This type of turnover will happen more and more.
