I was getting worried.
Rees isn't the guy. PJ Fleck wants the gig. Row the Boat.
He should hire a proof reader that speaks english.
Quasi
He might have zero insight, but he's likely spot on.
He will be 33 years old and Swarbrick, as big of an idiot as he is, is not that stupid and besides, he won't be picking the successor anyway. He'll be retired himself by the time it comes to make that decision. The mold is quite clear - we are going to get the flavor of the month from a lower tier school.
I have no clue who that is because the flavor of the month won't be known until about October of BK's last year, but that's the profile. It won't be Rees.
I do think Swarbrick has thought that he would be a good choice if he was still the AD. Fortunately, he won't be.
as sure as you knew who our OL coach would be.
million per for not doing much other than to push ND with both football feet into the ACC and then crown Tommy after Kelly hangs it up.
There's only one or two scenarios where I don't see this happening, and they would be external in nature. Where the hell else would we be going after totally abandoning our legacy except for when we can make a buck off of it?
until their young offensive coordinator gets punched in the mouth.
I'm going to be watching you.
a sure thing exists anymore. Michigan certainly thought they had the "sure thing" and is paying dearly for it.
Lea will have his pick of mid-tier Power 5 jobs after this season. I have a guess at how Savvy will get him to stay. So damn predictable.
Maybe Vandy or some other academics-focused school will hire him for "fit" purposes, but I doubt Lea is/will be a hot commodity.
It seems most mid-tier jobs go to:
a) a HC at a smaller school (MAC, etc)
b) a name brand HC (Les Miles, Lane Kiffin, Herm Edwards, Kevin Sumlin, et al.)
c) a strong recruiter
Lea does not fit any of those. Plus, he has some bad film as DC against good opponents.
It's a guy in his basement creating free content for a website with USA Today's name on it.
ND might well screw up the post-Kelly transition, I certainly wouldn't bet against it, but this article has fuck-all to do with any of that.
is not being followed by the same school leaders.
a time machine.
This reminds me of Silicon Valley when Big Head is promoted at Hooli.
It's consistently worse than even the fan recruiting sites and the new SI garbage. My middle schooler could do better.
He's not even a good QB coach.
making that decision?
Played or coached any revenue sports.
It's all so confusing.
The King will be dead. Long live the King.
