I like it

First off, we can assume the budget is limited after the Grimes hire. So if we get an AA coach that knows the LDS culture who has played and coached DBs. On top of that he has also been a recruiting coordinator at both of his coaching gigs is also a plus. Solid hire.

If true, does the Preston Hadley addition excite you?

Yes. He's a talented, up and coming coach.

Great hire, he has big potential down the road and is a great recruiter.

Can you Diggs it?

Describe why you claim he’s a great recruiter.

He was the recruiting coordinator at Weber

If the guy could get top ranked recruits to Weber and Satan Ana, he can get...

Valid points... I can agree with.

So more of a "that's the best we were going to be able to do..."

Was kind of hoping for someone with experience in a different recruiting region.

can't hurt to have another coach who's familiar with socal

My initial thought as well... like Canuck said these hires have a lot to do with cost.

Cougar86

1/19/18 11:21am

Yeah, why can't we get a SEC hire at a Big Sky price?

Tbh 2 to 3 hires from Weber isn't all that exciting to me. But it is what it is

That’s the way I am leaning.... honestly disappointing.

Weber was a nationally ranked FCS program last year

1/19/18 11:45am

Could be. I wouldn't say are yet.

I mean, it’s hard to predict how they’ll be for us

1/19/18 12:01pm

There aren’t that many good FCS programs. why you see the same teams at the top

Remember when Urban Meyer was a hire from Bowling Green?

I assume it is true since he changed his Linked in bio to now read

I don't think any reasonable hire would suddenly make this mess any better.

Mr. Scoobs

1/19/18 12:07pm

No. But position coach hires rarely excite.

Brigham

I think the Hadley hire is fine. Certainly nothing earth shattering

No

1/19/18 1:28pm

BYU now has three former Weber coaches in Clark, Fesi, and Hadley

Good person but bland hire

Cougarpride

1/19/18 2:27pm

Nope.

1/19/18 2:44pm

It would have been an earth-shattering hire if BYU hadn't blown the announcement

1/19/18 2:50pm

Sure.

Preston is a good friend of mine

cornellcoug

1/19/18 5:34pm

All the best to Preston but why be impressed with ethnicity?

Coogar2

1/19/18 6:26pm

Trump is impressed that you are a white Norwegian. He wants more of you.

Archaea

1/19/18 6:29pm

Because BYU lacks ethnic diversity and potential recruits will relate
