New OC

[Dr. Zaius]

Kirk should have retired in 2020

 

[gable_guy]

maybe Johns said no?

2 possibilities
1. We’re cheap
2. Candidates weren’t comfortable with level of contorl over scheme they were going to get

 

[Hawkstrat]

I bet Troy is pissed.

 

[snips]

3 months well spent boys.....

 

[MikeyJoe]

What metrics do we need to see to judge this hire after next season? Somebody(else) make that poll with efficiency numbers please.

Hopefully I want to kill myself less after watching the games.

 

[The Dad]

Championship mindset. Never settle. Always innovate. Kirk 5.0.

 

[ivan_drago]

I cannot believe a three month search ended with Tim fucking Lester.

How is it known Kirk exercises high levels of control over the offense(outside of his sperm coaching it the last few years)? It seemed like KOK, GDGD, and Brian were all pretty different both in the players brought in, and the focus of what the offense did, and the level at which it performed.

 

[MikeyJoe]

I just thought they'd hire an OC.

Would have been nice to hire a guy with, you know, a clear history of success instead of a guy we have to talk ourselves into maybe be okay.

I’m not gonna overthink this. Chryst fell through and Kirk interviewed 2 guys with kinda similar resumes and hired the guy with NFL experience.

To me it looks like he runs a 21st century offense so there’s a positive.

At this point QB is now the biggest concern going into spring.

he mandates the way the running game will look. Brian actually got more rope in this regard, especially late, than the other two

 

[BluesHawk]

I'm not gonna overthink it either because it's bleh

This might be the only fanbase of a perennial Top 25 program that would have actually been excited about having Paul Chryst as their OC. Of course it’s bleh

 

[Dr. Zaius]

The legacy of Kirk continues its downfall

 

[Kerky]

I agree. I think he must have felt confident in Chryst and then something fell apart. I’m hopeful he’s actually able to run the offense that he has in the past. Most of it will fit and can be modified for more 2 TE stuff (1as H-back) to fit personnel.

I heard Chryst led KF along until late in the process opting not to come in the end. Thus the timetable.

@douglasbader

The River Runneth Dry. Like post menopausal vagine.

 

[StinkyMcFadden]

@douglasbader should be banned.

I have a feeling Chryst will get another head coaching job he’s holding out for in 2025 and everyone will get a look at how he does without Jim Leonard and Jonathan Taylor.

 

[Stu Beagle]

So Kirk has no interest in running an offense designed to score points

A beautiful auto-correct candidate.

His offenses at WVU averaged more yards over that period than did Johns

 

[Kerky]

At least he played the position of QB.

According to Wiki he had been recruited to play at Florida under Spurrier.

And then put up big career numbers at WMU.

 

[The Dad]

Statistically their offenses at WVU were tied.




You stupid fucking retard.

 

[BngHawk]

GDGD: also a QB :-(

sounds sorta like the Drew Tate resume

 

[Thanksgiving Dinner]

Just so very underwhelming if Lester. I’m ready for Kirk to bid us adieu in that event. Perhaps it’s sympathy for his dear son’s plight that caused him to view recent miserable failure as a resume attribute.

I can't shake the feeling that this is partially your fault.

I'm all in on Johns boyz. I hereby proclaim that our long, long Gerg/Bridawg nightmare is over.

I have to keep an eye on child rapists like you

 

[HiawathaHawk]

Here’s an extended highlight of their 2021 upset at Pitt where they scored 44. That was the year Pitt had Pickett and won 11 games. About 80% of the highlights are RPO’s, everything out of gun.:

Here’s your chance, mods.

 

[The Dad]

Tim, what are your thoughts on dual threat QBs?

In your eyes what constitutes “backyard football”?

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Doug is a tricking stream to his people

 

[Dr. Zaius]

It would be nice if someone would hold Ferentz accountable for this retardation. Hopefully, Goetz is willing to fire another Ferentz if he continues to fuck around

This is good stuff. Cogent.

 

[Alan Lomax]

Seems the claims of his control are a tad overblown. That’s not to say it hasn’t had negative impact due to his pouting about a rule change. His comfort and expertise in coaching zone blocking really bit them in the ass.

 

[Kerky]

Did he call plays at WMU at least?

I'm trying to talk myself into this but his resume does seem a little more progressive than Johns who bounced around a lot at the same level.

My concern is how much experience does he have in play calling etc.

Clearly a comfort hire for KF

 

[Thomas Wolsey]

Does he know any WR or QB that would transfer?

From 2018-2022

A lot of the talk about his Syracuse tenure is pretty overblown too. He didn't take over until mid-October, had pretty shit pieces to work with, and then increased their PPG by 10 full points in his first full season before Babers came in and installed his own staff.

It's a very B-grade hire that has the potential to be affected by whoever comes in as WR coach.

 

[BngHawk]

Maybe he can bring someone from fucking Green Bay. God damn it.

 

[Thomas Wolsey]

It is an obvious upgrade from what we had.

 

[HiawathaHawk]

 

[newsbreaker]

A wide man once told me, it’s the expectations that get you.

Anybody would have been an upgrade from what we had

That wide man also wiped with a Clorox wipe

IF we implement these concepts, much more on board with this hire.
