Who should be the CU head coach in 2010?

[The Guest]

Maybe we should just coax coach Mac out of retirement like KSU did with Snyder.

Coach Mac looks at least 25 years younger. :thumbsup:

Fixed yer post for ya.

Not unless he changed his name to Charlie Strong.

:sorry:

 

[canuck_buff]

Charlie Strong has my vote and helps restore the Buffs D and allows his Florida roots and connections to add speed play makers to our offense .

 

[DFWBUFF]

People seriously need to look at Sumlin's resume

Impressive.

Karl Dorrell, Troy Callahoun,

Karl Dorrell, Troy Callahoun,

Not only "no", but "HELL NO".

I honestly think we'd be better off keeping Hawkins.

Even though Venables sounds like a disease, I would like him

 

[Buff fanatic]

Embree. Cheap and brings in Bienemy for OC. Why not??

And I bet recruiting would go well.

 

[sackman]

Here's my problem with Embree - he's been a WR coach at UCLA and now Kansas City for the last 8-9 years, and in that time, none of this squads have produced anything. I like him, he's a good Buff, but are we really all that certain he's a good coach? I'm not convinced.

He primarily coaches the Tight Ends, though he did coach WRs, DEs and Ks some while on the CU staff. I'd say that Daniel Graham's 2001 Mackey Award (CU), Mercedes Lewis' 2005 Mackey Award (UCLA), and Tony Gonzalez's All Pros (KC Chiefs) point to him knowing what he's doing as a coach.

either he finds good talent and coaches it well enough that it doesn't go to waste, or he is awesome enough to develop good talent that falls into his lap... either way good with me :smile2:

 

[sackman]

We're still talking about a guy who has never even been a coordinator. I'd like to see him move a little farther up the chain before giving him the keys to the car.

 

[SECOBuffsFan]

My list

1. Troy Calhoun, Air Force - He is a heck of a coach, but I think he stays at AFA (voted other for him)
2. Gary Patterson, TCU - they are flat out Championship good this year and have been extremely competitive for a while under his watch
3. Kyle Whittingham, Utah - after the team he had last year and replacing Urban Meyer at Utah, those are two great points in his favor

Dave Logan is available.

Going with Venables

"I know this, I`m up to the task," Hawkins said. "I know this, our coaches are up to the task. ... I`m going to be here for a long time, and we`re going to get this going. And it`s going to be done right."

Rumors of Strong to UVA are going around. Bud Foster the DC for Virginia Tech is another one to keep an eye on imo

Hmmm. I thought that at this point Foster was going to stay at VaTech with Beamer until the end. Figured it was like Mickey Andrews never leaving Bobby Bowden.

Foster's a great Head Coach candidate if he's looking for it now.

Where is the "Somebody not named Dan Hawkins" option?

 

[Hugegroove]

Of the 9 votes cast in Hawkins favor, did any of those voters send e-mails of support to Dan for him to read on his show?:smile2:

rumors of Nutt to CU are surfacing on Arky boards... please god no.

 

[stampy]

Why not? Guaranteed Nutt would know how to build a running game out of the current talent on the roster.

Do you have a link to that? I'd like to see what they're saying.

my roommate runs around on hogville and he said it popped up there.

Nutt has a way of leaving the cupboard bare. His recruiting efforts left Arky in a huge hole that they are trying to climb out of. His best recruits to Arky were apparently either legacy recruits or arky from the roots up... That won't fly to well here :huh:

 

[White_Rabbit]

Yeah I remember hearing quite a bit about Nutt and how he's a very good gameday coach, he just isn't much for recruiting. Doesn't like to do it and isn't very good at it.

 

[slider]

We could do worse then Nutt imo. I wouldn't mind Bud Foster

 

[DBT]

I'm sure Patterson would love coming here without being able to recruit the same guys he does at TCU. He'd be in for a rude awakening.

listen to his gameday speeches... replace hawk's goofy positive thinking references with religious or really simplistic ones and he sounds a LOT like hawk... I want someone else plz. :lol:
