UA1996MAENG Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 (edited) At this point, I don't know if this possibility upsets me or gives me hope. On one hand, UA needs stability and the time to develop under Moorhead. On the other hand, Moorhead's 4-20 record is terrible. I'm just a fan - no college football experience, but I have yet to see any of Moorhead's supposed offensive mastery while at UA. I know this was a major rebuild, but the MAC is a landscape in which there usually is not a giant void between the successful programs and the bottom. A good coach can make a big difference in a short time. It seems that given the possibilities and peculiarities of MAC football, UA should be farther ahead than it is by year two. If he leaves, who is the next coach to lead the program? Is Brookhart promoted due to his experience? https://theathletic.com/5219845/2024/01/22/joe-moorhead-akron-nfl-offensive-coordinator/ Edited January 23 by UA1996MAENG 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy5 Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 Great PR piece for our head coach with zero reports of being an actual candidate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Kangaroo Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 Can't wait for an upcoming The Athletic click bait: "JD Brookhart, who left Akron after a 3-9 season, and who's been out of coaching for 15 years, to be hired as Akron's next HC". Moorhead isn't going anywhere in 2024, but bloggers will tie his name to every available OC opening. And it works...I'm sure they are getting their precious clicks as people eagerly share their phony baloney speculation. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy5 Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 Makes you wonder why these keep popping up thought right? Surely Joe Moorhead isn't creating more clicks and revenue than the average candidate. Is his agent starting some negotiations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clicks are a big ordeal for online media these days. As @Captain Kangaroo stated, Moorhead isn’t going anywhere this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd disagree with that I think the writer is ignorant in that he doesn’t know Moorhead’s current situation. I’ve lost count how many writers have attached Moorhead’s job to OC vacancies already. This just seems like another example. If things don’t work out here, Moorhead will probably look to take an OC job somewhere. I suspect he’ll eventually angle to take another P5 head coaching gig if he can turn this thing around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
