If I were Tom Holmoe, my rule #1 from now on:

canofpicante Walk-on

Only hire head coaches with previous successful college head coaching experience.

Seems simple but we have too much history to be a guinea pig, to be an entry-level job.

If I were Tom Holmoe, my rule #1 from now on:

canofpicante

11/23/17 12:27am

Don't hire high school coaches.

Metallicat

11/23/17 12:30am

This

cougfanz

11/23/17 2:33am

Howell isn't doing too bad at UVA

Mr. Jerry

11/23/17 11:35am

He also started as an intern, not position coach or coordinator.

Metallicat

11/23/17 2:14pm

That’s because Bronco carries him...

icecougar

11/23/17 11:30pm

Get more money for coaches, all of them

Cougar TD

I keep hearing this, but he did. That's the scary part.

Yeah, the coaching pool is teeming with successful college head coaches looking for jobs

darkcoug

11/23/17 12:55am

Well that would have excluded Bronco.

11/23/17 7:16am

And includes Crowton

It’s obviously the best #1 rule for Holmoe to follow

(Private)

11/24/17 7:10am

Lol....um.....he hired bronco. Very successful coach.

idacoug

11/23/17 7:29am

Don't hire coaches coming off of 2-10 seasons.

dYrtbYkerYder

11/23/17 7:55am

So no Bronco, no LaVell.

All-American

11/23/17 8:59am

Make sure I consult CB for all personnel decisions

Adrielle

11/23/17 9:17am

Totally true (tongue in check)

Beetdiggercoug

11/23/17 5:36pm

We need to increase the pool

bigjohn

11/23/17 9:18am

We could implement our own Rooney rule. At least candidate interviewed is an active LESS member.

SpiffCoug

11/23/17 9:35am

Yeah that idea worked like a charm with Crowton

Seasider

11/23/17 9:28am

Successful, active LDS, D1 or high head coach, willing to take a financial bath.

11/23/17 10:09am

I'd take Jay Hill. The guys has turned perennial loser Weber into a winner.

tebowned

11/23/17 10:41am

I'll wait on Jay Hill until Weber is also a perennial winner. He's not there yet.

SpiffCoug

11/23/17 12:49pm

So no in 04 to Whitt or Bronco?

Little Britches

11/23/17 11:01am

Bronco was pretty good.

I don't think he's saying the rule should be retroactively applied.

SpiffCoug

11/23/17 12:49pm

Successful HCs are too expensive for BYU. Besides, most top programs don't

TailgateU

11/23/17 5:19pm

Good luck with that. . .

CosmoK

11/23/17 5:56pm

Nope. But I would consider a moratorium on BYU alumni as coaches.

delux_247

11/23/17 6:41pm

That would have meant no Lavell...not national championship
