He is. Not even close. Now quit trolling

It was crappy for KD to take guys with him and it'd be crappy for Arth to bring his guys here. Hopefully he can shore things over with our current class and maybe convince a couple guys he lost out on to bigger programs to come here.

Just quit while you're behind, please.

Good find. How'd he do at ND?

Zero of these guys went straight from HS to division 1 head coach. Chip Kelly never even coached HS football. The average # of positions held between HS coach and D1 HC is roughly 5 per Wikipedia browsing, and about 5-10 years to get from HS coach to D1 HC. Your post doesn't even really deserve the effort of looking all of this up but it's completely ludicrous to expect any HS coach to be able to jump to D1 football and succeed as a head coach.

Looks like gold unis

Welcome Coach Arth. This isn't the Getsy type splash hire but I've said before, winning is exciting. Offseason hire excitement equates to zero wins come September.. let's win some games. Go Zips

Probably to raise money to buy him out

Jacobs not being contacted is old news?

Ha I was gonna say, the twitter account that tweets out all the news after we post it? Color me skeptical

Here's a new one

If we didn't reach out, Williams should pack his things by 2:00.

Stan Drayton seems to coach somewhere for a year and then move somewhere else for the same job and never move up. Weird resume

You can send it in Wed-Fri?

Only reason I asked is because I don't know D3 scheduling. I believe FBS coaches wait until the regular season is over and a lot of moves occur between then and bowl season. Not sure if lower levels wait for their entire season to end to interview, because I'm not sure how long of a break is in between regular season and playoffs/national championship

To me that is far down the list of prerequisites. Connections can be made, you can hire assistants with connections, you can pull talent in from elsewhere until they notice you (see TB), etc. Just win, baby.

I think I like this guy better than Kehres to be honest. He turned Notre Dame around pretty quickly, has some D-1 experience, still should have local connections. I'd be happy with this

Is Kehres allowed to interview during the season? Wondering if maybe we're either waiting to interview him, or waiting to announce it's him after his season. Notre Dame College just lost as well, they could have been waiting to talk to Jacobs also

Here's the latest from the Akron Zips beat writer if anyone is looking for some new info on the search https://twitter.com/ByGeorgeThomas?s=09

Yes. Winners win, losers lose. Now, is the MU success lately because of him? Debatable since he took over such a successful program, but he certainly hasn't screwed it up.

Yes

Know what's exciting? Winning. Some of the most "exciting" hires I've seen have been full of hot air and the excitement wanes quite quickly when you don't win. Take a look at the reception when Gundy hired Yurcich, or on the flip side when Pitt hired Todd Graham.
