Who should we hire

Ok first post here after lurking for quite a while...

I'll throw out someone.  Tim Drevno. OC/OL at Michigan. Knows the league, knows how to recruit etc.   If you are wanting an up and comer thst you dont have to oay stupid $$ to get he would be a good option.

Dark horse candidate...I'll echo what someone else posted...Joe Moglia from Coastal Carolina.  Great guy by all accounts. Great job growing that program.  Deginately overqualified as a manager/administrator.  Will work for free...freeing up $Millions to hire THE BEST coordinators and S&C staff money can buy. 

 
I'll take your word for it as I don't live in a city that has a NFL team so I don't get a chance to see the media circus first hand.




The local Philly sports station (CSN Philly) has a nightly Eagles show (Quick Slants) every single night, all year round. 

 
I don't have any problem holding him accountable. He should go before or at the same time MR does. But he is not the problem and replacing him does nothing directly for the football product. If the next guy makes a good hire and if it works out, great. But that AD will likely have as much to do with getting beat by NIU or struggling through these 3 games as SE did. I know he is ultimately responsible for what happens but I think you get my point.


Pretty much every single article or podcast I've read and listened to this week from the national guys (Sports Illustrated, USA Today, The Athletic, Fox Sports, ESPN, Yahoo) all have said the same thing. Eichorst didn't do his due diligence when he fired Bo. You replace a guy when you're sure you can do better. Riley would have still been available 10, 20, 30 days later, because nobody was hiring him away from Oregon State. He was past his prime (2008-2010, he had been sliding, and wasn't a good fit.

It's pretty simple. Do you trust Eichorst to make the next hire? I don't think I do.

That is interesting about not doing his due diligence.  

I would take it one more step and say he honestly thought anyone coach could win 9 games here and with that thinking he went with the cheap/safe hire...when he could have went after a James Franklin (Who I begged for).

Hell no!! First one that needs to go is Eichorst. Eichorst needs to be gone yesterday.

I think I agree with hiring the Miss St coach....proven P5 coach, not everyone on board with a Frost hire because he's not really proven yet (although I would still take the chance).

But first get rid of the Wisconsin JV in the head office... this whole current experiment just stinks.

 
Man I wish we could have just hired Chris Petersen in 2014
I couldn't agree more! Just got done googling how much it would cost now to get him..... not cheap for a 119-26 D1 stud coach.4.85 mil through 2023 as it stands. Pac 12's highest paid coach. Would we/ could we sack up and steal a guy like this? It's what we need, no way can we f#*k this up again.

I wholeheartedly agree. Eichorst needs to go. But my point has been that many are acting like that is enough. Like football things will improve because he is gone. Other than the bad hire, he has had about zero influence on our play on the field, and that will be the case for the next guy as well. He'll either make a good hire and look like a genius or he'll make a bad one and be vilified....or he'll make a good hire and that coach won't succeed for a myriad of other reasons. Maybe it's a stupid point I'm trying to make.
