Probably should hire a coach soon so you can actually have more than 1 recruit in your class unless you want to be like Deion Sanders and have 50 transfers every year and suck.
New coach
- Thread starter NOYDB
- Start date
I hope somebody else wants it. What about Fitzgerald or Al Golden, do they want it? If Chesney and Hartline say no, then give them a call.
I just hope they find an actual coach at this point. Terry Smith is a nice guy, but it would pretty much be the players coaching themselves. He would let them do whatever they want, which means complacency, not winning, this season over and over again, etc.
Belichick and his girlfriend may be available
Confirmation that Kalshi odds are pointless, as expected. IDK why so many keep sharing their "odds," it's based on nothing but web chatter and is easily manipulated. I'm sure Kalshi pocketed a ton of money by playing with the odds and influencing the numbers though, reports were they took over $1M in bets on the PSU coaching search alone. A fool and his money are soon parted.
I mean, Patty Fitz would take it in a heartbeat but I don't think we've reached that point.
Doubtful. The things that need to change would involve either changing the academic calendar (not happening) or shrinking the playoff and making sure it ends earlier. The latter is a direct conflict of the decision makers #1 priority, making money. So that's not happening either.

Oddly, it seems like he was the only coach of the two this year willing to take charge of the players and assistants and get them to follow his lead.
Pat Fitzgerald….hell no. Why does his name still come up? What an underwhelming hire that would be. That should get Kraft fired.
That's too high for a first time head coach unless Kraft is completely stuck and Hartline has a ton of leverage. Established coaches make less. For example Sumrall's deal at UF is expected to be less than $9M. The first few years of Franklin's deal at VT are under $9M/year.
So the same thing we've had for the last 12 years.
Amazing what 3 Heisman winning QB’s can do for a coaches record. I know he coached them, but still.
Polynesian/Hawaiian shirt night to replace white out. Book it.
maybe this is Cael coming back after the Thanksgiving break
I have no idea what to think about a possible Sitake hire. He certainly isn't a splash hire, home run candidate but that doesn't mean he's a bad one.
The SEC openings appear to be filled. Penn State may end up being the last of the major conference teams to hire a coach.
Or the mormons are sending their c-suite to evaluate putting a possible thetan level testing center on Beaver Ave.
Good coach. In addition to his time at BYU was Whittingham’s DC and AHC at Utah. First D1 Tongan Head Coach. Doesn’t seem like a geographical or cultural fit
If it was Terry Smith we'd know right now. Its not him.
Before everybody bashes BYU coach you should actually do research on him. Excellent recruiter, great culture guy etc. Who gives a crap if he has no PA ties neither does Deboer who everybody wants.
Plus he is a former fullback and Polynesian which = tough physical play.
I haven’t seen one person bashing him. It’s just a surprising choice. Half his team is from Utah and there’s ONE player from the east coast.
I just checked his Wiki page and it has him listed as the PSU’s head coach.
If it’s Terry Smith then Pat Kraft will be the laughing stock of College Football … and he should be relieved of his duties immediately
as I tell students never use the Wiki anybody can edit the Wiki
OK, but even $7 million is a lot more than $2 million. It's also an opportunity to become a head coach at an historically top university.
I know. I do use Wiki when I want to find out information about favorite albums and songs and historical team and coaching records.
Are we mixing cults? Is the new coach arriving in a DC-8 looking craft?
