Glad we didn’t fall into that trap.

Missing the blue font or /s closing ...

Drink's ego is too large for such a diverse set of offensive ideas ...

Will drink be linked to yet another coaching search for no reason other than his agent is a frick head?

Glad we didn't hire the guy who had one of the most prolific offenses in college football history.

Hiring someone like that would not be in line with our “something to prove“ mentality. That would be more of a . This is what you expected and it’s a good move kind of move. We’re not about that kind of decision making.

His running game philosophy and QB preparation would have provided a paradigm shift for the entire team. Giving the defense a lead and letting Early's DE tee off because the other team has to throw to keep up....that sure would have been nice.....but we get Temu Gus Bus instead.

Theres a strong chance Kelly leaves after a year but I would have been excited about the hire.

He would have fired Gleeson too which would have been great.

Kelly is great when he has superior talent to everyone.

A lot of coaches can succeed with that qualifier.

Any time Kelly has had a team that did not have monumentally better talent....usually has not been pretty.

And we already did the outtempo the other team no matter what with Heupel. You may have much fonder memories of that era than I do. I was not a fan.
