I said 5yrs ago, college football is a about points.

9 times out of 10 your HC better be an offensive guy. His OCs can come and go, and your HC is still there.

A defensive HC? Every 2 to 3yrs you're bringing in a guy who will do it "his way."

9 times out of 10, never a good formula.

Urban wasn’t all the successful at his first head coaching job, give Ash time
I was all set to give Ash all the time he needed, but when I looked at how bad Mehringer was. I started to second guess
how can anyone be so bad to hire Mehringer. Well it looks like I got my answer, I hope not, but maybe.

Not a big fan of this hire. I will support it , but I believe we will be posting a lot of 'ash will get us smashed ' on this board in years to come .
Remember plum street coined the term' flood the dud ' before the 2012 season .
I hope I am proven wrong and 'ash won't get us smashed '. Time to get behind the new coach , even if I don't believe .
Have any good tips for stocks about to skyrocket

What rhymes with being right ?!
Unless I missed it, what I find most amazing is I did not rip on your OP back in 2015. Maye I did with your Flood is a dud. At some point, we kissed and made up on this board. The Flood thing I give you less credit for, because many here recognized Flood as some type of desperation hire after Cristobal turned RU down and Pernetti wanted to save the recruiting class.

And the same way you bumped this thread and are now rubbing peoples' noses in it, that could have been done with you Flood is a dud post when Flood started 7-0. Heck, even after the WTF loss to Kent State, he knocked of a Cincinnati team that ended the season 10-3 (yeah, he lost to Pitt and Louisville and that dreadful Va Tech bowl game, but 9-4 was not a bad start for a "dud"--and don't want to hear about it was all Greg's players. )

That's the one aspect of this that I will criticize you on this. Even a broken clock is "right" twice a day. So what. Coaching selection is an inexact science, and at best a 50/50 proposition, except at RU, where it is wrong most of the time.

We have kissed and made up. I was right on flood and right on ash. You want to point to a portion of a season 6 years ago? Then I will point to ensuing 6 years.
I was right.
The thing with ash, and you will see in the posts In the bumped posts, was the venom I was met with when I just gave my opinion. So yeah I will rub peoples noses in it everyday and twice on Sunday.

And if I am an *** and wrong, while I attack another poster, I deserve to get my nose rubbed in it. Right?

First, Flood was only here 4 years. But at what point do you draw the line. Hypothetically, what if Flood stayed, and he was kicking Ash (oops, ***) today and had the team 5-1? Yeah, not likely to have happened. Sometimes people are right, and sometimes they are wrong.

If flood stayed and we were 5-1 this board would be a much happier place.

You should read CuredBy's thread. Here's a quote to keep:

"This is a horrible hire by every measure - a non- recruiter with no local ties. Couldn't be worse and you should expect to see a lot more posts like this so get used to it."

- CuredbyWinning

Is CuredbyWinning still around? Give that poster credit for nailing it.

And how is Syracuse recruiting going. I'm pretty sure Urban also told him this was n an overnight fix

Totally clueless you are.
Cuse would whip RU right now and their Coach knows what the f he is doing.

I don't think this is as much about someone being right as in how he was trashed for stating his opinion. THAT is worth recalling as a lesson to everyone. Just because someone doesn't have the pompoms out and isn't wearing his scarlet-colored glasses doesn't mean he's not a fan.

THAT is the lesson. Not that somebody was right. (Although obviously he was.)

Sadly yes. So much to say but the comments in these old threads and on the field do the talking . As they should .

My issue as I recall at the time was the incessant bombardment of the opinion that Ash was an awful hire in damn near every thread. But point taken.

I was holding onto hope that ash would be fired today, and I could bury this thread forever. However, I woke up to reading that pathetic statement by Hobbs.
Well, here’s my statement that I still stand by: “Ash will get us smashed.”
This famous thread must sadly live on for another year at the very least.

Hobbs, Ash, and their scumbag agent should be brought up on RICO charges for ripping off the university. This charade is so typical lowlife Jersey trash using an institution as their own personal atm.
