[QUOTE="joeski088, post: 509756, member: 4331"] Thanks, I hope for your sake that Collins can get a great staff. I think that was his major issue at Temple, his OC and both DC's were completely bush league. They had very little experience at the major college level and were in over their heads. The position coaches were better, particularly the WR coach, Stan Hixon. If he comes with Collins, that would be very good for you guys IMO. Maybe he can get a higher level of coordinator at an ACC school. At Temple he just went out and hired all of his coaching buddies that he had met over the years. He was loyal to a fault to the OC, who clearly was not a good fit, but they have been friends for years, and I think Collins just couldn't bring himself to fire the guy. After the nationally televised game where they got blown out by USF in 2017 and he got into it with the WR's on the sideline, he was banished to coach from up in the box for the rest of his tenure. I think that may have been more the AD's call than Collins' call though. You are definitely right about UCF! They got some major favoritism from the AAC refs this season, but I get it. If they remained undefeated, they go to a NY6 bowl and give the conference a lot of good exposure. The AAC keeps pushing the Power 6 theme, and that argument holds a lot more weight if they have a team in the top 10 every year, who is repeatedly beating the top P5 schools in a NY6 bowl game. A Power 6 will never happen, but I give the commissioner credit for trying. [/QUOTE]
