[QUOTE="BCJacket, post: 897740, member: 2332"] We'll see, but personally I think Key is the best pick for iHC, of the current staff. Has he been a success here as OL coach? No. But none of our coaches under Collins have been successful. Everything I've heard indicates the 'Collins way' was holding back the whole program. And the OL retool was the toughest job in the program. Collins' flash-mod style practices are the antithesis of how an OL needs to train. Key's well regarded as a coach outside our program. He was on the fast track to a HC job before UCF fell flat in the season he was OC. (Was named HC in waiting at UCF and reportedly offered other jobs.) There were many many problems in the UCF program that year and few were Key's doing. He was well regarded enough as a coach and recruiter to get hired by Saban. And reportedly has had other OL coach offers since he's been here. Which was why he was promoted to AHC. I would expect the program under him to be more structured and more focused. Which is exactly what I feel like the team needs. Best case the players rally around him and each other and put the program on an upward trajectory for the next coach. And Key improves his resume for his next gig. Worst case, the results are as bad as they were going to be with Collins. And everyone on here who's never forgiven Key for 'negative recruiting' will have another rotten tomato to throw at him. Long might be a fine pick too, but he hasn't been here as long as Key. Frankly, the offense needs a lot of work. IMHO, better to keep Long focused on the offense. [/QUOTE]
