I think he's stepping away from coaching to spend time with family.

I’ve called him Lanier for so long that I was devastated that Lanier is only the name of a lake.

JGT says there is some fire to the Kittley smoke. Not really sure how I feel about that. I hear Texas Tech wants him but they’ve screwed up more than Auburn lately.

Still can’t believe he left BYU for Virginia. That was a strange move.

Right across the street from my business


I thought you were on Cortez & 43rd. The one we go to is next to the cracker barrel across the street from Carrabas.

Zach Kittley, Western Kentucky

247 added this guy to the board. KN says they scored 30+ in all of their games and 40+ in 8 games


Yes please. He’s the reason I bet WKU to win cusa this year. What he did at Houston Baptist was impressive

Are we sure that he is calling the plays?

It’s pretty impressive looking at the turnaround he did to WKU’s offense from 2020 to this year. And they didn’t just score on the teams in conference. They put up 31 or more on teams like Michigan State.

Yea I’d actually kind of like that hire. He’s done a great job at WKU.

You think that we would be interviewing someone who isn't calling the plays?

Am I missing something? WKU's offense looks like an all-out Air Raid.

Kittley is only 30. Never played football. Runs an air-raid.

I am skeptical Harsin would hire him. He had a great year at WKU, but I just can't see Harsin running air-raid.

Someone else on another board said Tyson Helton called the plays. Just checking.

I don’t think I like passing 65% of the time though.

What's his opinion on candy corn? Because that sounds like a much younger Leach.

Kittley runs a modified air raid similar to Longo at North Carolina. Ive said yes please to either Kittley or Longo. They seem to be great at developing qbs

Don’t fumble and run hard is pretty simple. Throwing the ball around that much can make a lot of things go wrong.

Since I know y’all are dying to know:
JGT new list:
Hill bumped up from 33% to 46%
Kittley placed at 33%
Wells dropped to 13%
Grimes dropped from 11% to 4%
