How many LDS "bad hires" can we go through before we've exhausted the available

pool? Folks seem to bandy about five or six reasonable LDS hires. With each "bad hire", we decrease the pool by at least 25%. I don't believe ND has such a limited pool.

I neither for nor against a Bronco leaving, just recognizing that ND's model for good coaching hires has very limited utility in BYU's case.

We could do a lot worse than Bronco

This is a legitimate concern.

I'm risk averse, and scared of whoever we will hire.

when continued failure is all but ensured, you take the risk.

what makes you think the chances of getting someone worse is high?

IMO finding someone who could replicate his recent results would be easy. I do

Thanks for posting that study. Interesting results...

Agreed. It's the known vs the unknown, and I think a lot of people are getting

I think people feel negative about the future.

This is my concern.

So in the meantime Anae should:

I think he should run the dive play on obvious running plays with a stacked box

What if Taysom is healthy next year, and we go undefeated? A few weeks ago that

You're not wrong for worrying about this, it's legitimate

Happens to a lot of programs. Michigan, Florida just to name 2.

Texas fired their coach last year after almost winning the B12 championship

My worry is that even if we did find someone

No, he doesn't get a pass because of injuries.

10/29/14 1:09am

Don't forget the two crappy yrs of offense under Doman as OC, too

mindzeYe

That's his biggest weakness as a head coach.

Dyslexicon

Agree, biggest weakness. Give most coaches terrible staff and they wouldn't

I'm not sure why so many have trouble letting go of mediocrity.

10/29/14 1:05am

I almost forgot...unbelievable firesides as well.

10/29/14 1:14am

You feel confident in an 8 win season this year?

HighHorse

But if we fire bronco we might lose 5 games in a row instead of only 4!

According to the emotional wrecks who hate Bronco and are campaigning

Or 4 in a row to utah, 3-6 in state, all 3 wins against utah state.

Certainly, but we at least need to be trying to do better.

Problem is there is no way to know if it would be better without starting

ND went through some bad hires before they

And the "fear mongering" continues. Can't we just

Good point.

So how much worse exactly do you think we'll get with a new coach?

Your coach is not someone you should have to overcome to be successful.......
