And Howell has been coaching in BYU's since 2007 (intern)

http://byucougars.com/staff/m-football/nick-howell

Didn't we have some very good defenses during his time here some of which he was a position coach of the same position Anderson was?

I know that is silly and it is meant to be - but it should prove a bit of a point about giving too much credit to others by association...

He recruits Utah for Stanford and has recruits ears

BYU '80

11/10/14 5:21am

He is not leaving Stanford to be dc at byu

concolor couguar

11/10/14 5:23am

I love how people assume to speak for others here

jota

11/10/14 5:51am

Next time you talk to him, can you ask him if he likes beef or chicken ramen?

FILIKU

11/10/14 6:15am

Pure speculation, or definitively concluded? Link?

Desert Rat

11/10/14 6:40am

Of course it is speculation

concolor couguar

11/10/14 6:52am

Who says we want him for a DC?

RE: Who says we want him for a DC?

concolor couguar

11/10/14 9:36am

Seriously. Why would someone leave a DC job at a top program...

Blue Cougar

11/10/14 9:49am

Who said anything about DC? Make him HC PLEASE, and get us back to relevance!

concolor couguar

11/10/14 10:41am

I'd also be okay if...

icecougar

11/10/14 1:10pm

Why the jab at Bronco with the RM comment?

11/10/14 6:17am

I think that changes the meaning of the post

stonecougar

11/10/14 6:31am

Does it matter that this guy is an RM and Bronco isn't?

11/10/14 7:48am

leaves the door open to it if that's the only way we can get him

icecougar

11/10/14 1:13pm

not a jab at Bronco, rather...

icecougar

11/10/14 1:12pm

All good things, but didn't he start as DC this season?

Y Mountain

11/10/14 6:29am

Yup.

Y'zFan

11/10/14 6:38am

Yes he has been DC for this 5-4 Stanford season only...

BYUFam1

11/10/14 7:07am

You can't really blame the defense for only being 5-4

nephicoug

11/10/14 7:30am

But you can't credit Anderson for anything other than this year...

BYUFam1

11/10/14 7:36am

You can credit him for the LB performance and recruiting

concolor couguar

11/10/14 7:37am

We had great QBs under Brandon Doman too...

vacougfan

11/10/14 8:59am

That must mean all position coaches will suck as cordinators...

concolor couguar

11/10/14 9:03am

I Agree

nitroboy

11/10/14 8:39am

They did that exact thing when they hired bronco

concolor couguar

11/10/14 8:41am

We recall he wasn't the first choice - but he was already internal and familiar

BYUFam1

11/10/14 8:54am

I dont think the Bronco failure is due to his lack of HC experience

concolor couguar

11/10/14 9:09am

Andersons D at Stanford has been great this year, its their O that is the issue

ayfan

11/10/14 9:40am

This year Stanford has the 4th ranked Scoring D in the Country, BYU is 71st.

ayfan

11/10/14 9:43am

Nice cherry picking. His D is ranked 4th in Scoring Defense and 5th in Total Yds

Blue Cougar

11/10/14 11:11am

I'm a partial hack!

Blue Cougar

11/10/14 11:17am

How did I cherry pick....all I've stated is he has 9 games experience (5-4)

BYUFam1

11/10/14 11:19am

By referring to the team record rather than his defenses top 5 ranking

Blue Cougar

11/10/14 1:48pm

Or maybe they are just filled with a bunch of held over talent...

BYUFam1

11/10/14 1:50pm

It is not like he has no history outside of being a DC

concolor couguar

11/10/14 2:01pm

Same could be said for Howell and that won't satisfy anyone...

BYUFam1

11/10/14 2:06pm

Yep Howell and Anderson are equally unproven

concolor couguar

11/10/14 2:12pm

I didn't say equal - you did, but 21 games to 9 as THE DC could mean something

BYUFam1

11/10/14 2:18pm

Howell has really only been the DC this season it was a title only last year

concolor couguar

11/10/14 2:22pm

Much larger body of work that WHO?

BYUFam1

11/10/14 2:29pm

He actually does have a larger body of work than Sitake

concolor couguar

11/10/14 2:32pm

But the original poster quoted 4 or 5 years and crediting him...

BYUFam1

11/10/14 2:45pm

I did forget the 5 games he spent at OLB coach before Hill was canned

concolor couguar

11/10/14 2:23pm

but he's been coaching in that defense for 6 years.

11/10/14 7:50am

And Howell has been coaching in BYU's since 2007 (intern)

BYUFam1

11/10/14 9:04am

an intern is not a coach

concolor couguar

11/10/14 9:41am

harbaugh didn't attribute byu's rise to howell.

11/10/14 9:45am

Bronco cult will just claim he's the head coach's puppet.

Walter Bellhaven

11/10/14 6:39am

He's been a DC for 2 months.

Zach

11/10/14 6:42am

Waaaah?? What's wrong w/ our current coaching situation?

RunningQB

11/10/14 7:13am

He is still going up against the same limitations that Bronco faces

RC Vikings

11/10/14 8:06am

I want a former BYU player if possible

Downtown

11/10/14 8:33am

I don't know. Kalani thought that mustaches in 2000 had a direct correlation to

11/10/14 9:05am

Personally, I don't care if they have BYU's winning roots. I just want a winner

Blue Cougar

11/10/14 9:56am

His defensive numbers sound as impressive as

pappabear246

11/10/14 10:09am

$100 per CB member?

imfear2000

11/10/14 10:22am

there's 27,000 members...

icecougar

11/10/14 1:24pm

Really, 27k? That's impressive.

imfear2000

11/10/14 3:45pm

being a RM has nothing to do with being a successful coach

Snib24

11/10/14 11:18am

Nope. neither is being a member for that matter.. Or being a firesie holder...

11/10/14 11:32am

RE: being a RM has nothing to do with being a successful coach

icecougar

11/10/14 1:32pm

I want a new HC more than just about anyone, but he needs more DC experience

11/10/14 11:27am

Why would anybody ever come coach at BYU. Horrible job

capo

11/10/14 12:19pm

Why respond to your questions what is the poi

stonecougar

11/10/14 12:37pm

or C). About the same

icecougar
