New coach

[Zone-Blitz]

People are just throwing crap against the wall hoping it will stick. Daboll has as much chance at this job as I do.

If former players are lobbying on his behalf, that’s not nothing.

 

[PSUForever]

Who is Zach Seyko?

Some dude who has a podcast for PSU football like half the people who live in SC.

 

[PSU4U]

If former players are lobbying on his behalf, that’s not nothing.

And some money people. I think he's scheduled to be in SC but is that to see his student kid or more?

 

[PSU4U]

The article said that some former PSU players who played for Daboll are pushing for him to at least get an interview

no real evidence that they’re interested in Lea, only speculation

Pat Fitzgerald has some strong supporters at PSU

PSU has interest in Al Golden

Golden made the initial contact not the other way around. What does that mean probably nothing as far as PS is concerned. If Golden didn't already, he will get an interview.

 

[PSU4U]

Daboll was the OC on Bama’s 2017 championship team but with Ridley, Smith Jeudy and Ruggs at WR I could have been OC.

He's nowhere near as average or bad as some make him out to be. If things don't go well, I could see them giving him a shot.

 

[PSU4U]

I’d take Kenny Chesney over Golden.

Or Golesh.

[PSU4U]

No thanks to Daboll. Would the former B10 coach be Fitzgerald? An interesting name to consider.

Not Fitzgerald ever.

 

[donaldfair71]

Fitzgerald went 4-20 his last two years in college?
Daboll failed as an NFL HC.

Bill O’Brien should be a candidate if a terrible season or two doesn’t matter, nor getting fired in the NFL.

Yeah Lane Kiffin, Nick Saban, Steve Spurrier, Lou holtz failed as NFL coaches to

Worst candidate ever. He was a total screwup with the Giants. Made terrible in-game decisions in addition to squandering talent.

He sounds perfect for PSU.

 

[Ludd]

Hooray, 5-4. Let's keep him for another 12 years.

Get used to 5-4.

 

[Ludd]

Holy F. You are starting to act like some of the crazy Fers on here. Get your head out of your ***.

So is that statement a fact or an opinion? I say it is an opinion, like my other posts and like 97% of all posts by all posters.

So stop acting like a fn ******* with your lame line ****. That is a fact, not an opinion.

Are your Fruit of the Looms a little tight? Good lord.

 

[Ludd]

Same.
And it wasn’t just losing. I felt good after Indiana last week. Not because we lost or kept it close, but because for the first time in what seems like forever we controlled play for long stretches against a B10 heavyweight. We had them on their heels! Took away things they liked to do!

It was invigorating not giving up 400 yards rushing to a really good running team. Or making the team (gasp) drop back to pass to beat you.

The comedy that has been Michigan and Ohio State games for years.

Yes because we got blown out so often by OSU and Michigan…never had a close game with either of them.

 

[SRURock24]

Worst candidate ever. He was a total screwup with the Giants. Made terrible in-game decisions in addition to squandering talent.

Kraft is not going to hire a Bill Callahan 2.0. No chance. Guy spent 95 percent of his career in the League and the Giants stunk it up under him. Zero chance.

 

[LMTLION]

LSU is a mess, and Ole Miss is becoming a mess dealing with Kiffin uncertainty. Some are speculating he may leave before the playoffs. College football is insanity right now. Krafty initiated chaos by firing Franklin. Just one article of many on Kiffin…

Ole Miss AD could take drastic action with Florida target Lane Kiffin soon

The Ole Miss Rebels could be forced to fire head coach Lane Kiffin amid concerns he'd leave the program for Florida.

[Phlebitis]

This coach search thread has officially Jumped the Shark

Fixed

 

[donaldfair71]

Yeah Lane Kiffin, Nick Saban, Steve Spurrier, Lou holtz failed as NFL coaches to

I’m not saying it facetiously, I said I wanted BOB if they fired Franklin the week of UCLA. I was told his terrible record and getting fired in the NFL made him someone you can’t hire.

Apparently these things make him still able to be hired if Daboll and Fitz are candidates and he should be interviewed.

 

[DaytonRickster]

I’d take Kenny Chesney over Golden.

I guess he has a better voice.

 

[donaldfair71]

Never won them and only got boat raced half the time.
Lifetime contract!

 

[DaytonRickster]

Golden mad the initial contact not the other way around. What does that mean probably nothing as far as PS is concerned. If Golden didn't already, he will get an interview.

It means he's on his way out as DC with the Bengals after a disastrous season.

How is Ole Miss a mess? That’s just typical speculation from someone who knows absolutely nothing.

 

[WVilleLion23]

Coach {insert name} is not coming here!

PSU candidate faceoff tonight: clempson vs. louisville, dabo vs. Brohm

How is Ole Miss a mess? That’s just typical speculation from someone who knows absolutely nothing.

It is increasingly looking like Kiffin goes to Florida. Ole Miss in full fledged panic mode now.

PSU candidate faceoff tonight: clempson vs. louisville, dabo vs. Brohm

Most of our candidates have been losing lately!

PSU candidate faceoff tonight: clempson vs. louisville, dabo vs. Brohm

Pass

 

[LMTLION]

Cross Brohm off the list. Two utterly horrific losses. It’s been dangerous to be a PSU head coach candidate this season!

 

[MacNit]

Every candidate that's been named, aside from Freeman, Elko and Deboer is a 50/50 hire, it's just something PSU has to deal with now. This was always the argument against firing a coach that typically won 9-10 games a season. The risk of doing so didn't outweigh the reward once you factor in the likelihood of finding a guy that would be better. None of the surefire homerun coaches - Day, Smart, Saban - were ever a possibility to hire and the next tier who we have apparently reached out to will be difficult to pry away from their current programs. That leaves you with a pool of candidates that all have risks, the most common one being that they have the same flaw as Franklin... they struggle as an underdog against top opponents.

Does Kraft want a high ceiling, or high floor, from his next hire? We just fired a guy with a high floor, so the assumption is he would want a high ceiling guy. The flipside is all of the high ceiling guys are also have a low floor, except for those 3-4 premium guys that PSU has zero chance of hiring.

That high floor just secured some losses that have not been seen in CFB in 4+ decades.

 

[MacNit]

Just think, he could bring back the Spread HD!

That offense won two 1st team all Big10 QB titles and one Big10 OPY

 

[royboy]

Amen. 6 major penalties by Louisville just in the 4th quarter. Ugly game vs Clemson and ugly behavior by Louisville players

 

[MacNit]

I guess he has a better voice.

Rene Zelwegger says N-O

 

[Nothing Special]

Amen. 6 major penalties by Louisville just in the 4th quarter. Ugly game vs Clemson and ugly behavior by Louisville players

Didn't exactly knock me out with the team discipline.

 

[Arivacalion]

If losing games is what matters, forget about Daboll and Fitzgerald and hire Locksley . Go right to the top!

 

[donaldfair71]

That high floor just secured some losses that have not been seen in CFB in 4+ decades.

The literal worst back to back weeks as a favorite of that magnitude in history.

 

[donaldfair71]

That offense looked like the 99 Rams compared to what we saw this until last week.
