I have to think position coaches are an automatic 'no go'...though the ewu coach sounds like an excellent choice for potential OC.

I'd still like to hear Daft explain our strategy and struggles, cause Gould and Bruce ain't giving no insight. ...and we recruited speed for 3 years. ...Boy that Weber loss looms huge...baseline Wins should have been 4....

Will Blue let Foster talk to the press?

Announcers claimed USD coach would tell his players 'you pay $60,000 a year here for the pleasure to play football.'

I don't buy the 'tired' part at this age, maturity maybe, youth ... but still a strong start to the season... and I believe our current schedule is tougher than when we had the cake schedule 2 years back.

I think they have been FCS / non-scholly for a while. They fly back east for basically 50% of their games, I think they're in the Patriot League (non scholarship).

Impressive win, smart, cagey team... will they get killed by NDSU?

Yes, non-scholly...

Fumble-Fest.

The Toreros back looks like a little ManZan.

Two former QBs as assistant coaches... HC a former NFL defensive player and true "teacher".

14-0 Toreros

Interesting that SD doesn't look huge or overwhelmingly fast, they just execute... their QB only a Sophomore.

In the 4th quarter that grass will remind me of Toomey in the 80s.

Weber State ... also known as the team we should have beaten at home, a critical loss. I (like others) had high hopes after the Oregon game, and then Weber ... ugh.

My guess is they save the dough. Win-win-win. The full contract is posted online.

Instead of another article on Gould...why not a one on one with Kevin Daft about why our offense struggled for 2 years. He might feel a bit freer to speak his mind now... Or daft and McCann.

ugh...how much of that was daft, and how much was essentially dictated by Gould? Either way, not effective.

easily solved... Just score every possession.

Hawkins requests may find more receptive ears this time.

Daft after the last 4 years...???

Welcome aboard!! We love new voices. YES, we think we have the talent, competitive spirit, and campus to compete!!

"Les is 68-92 overall.

Les overall winning %: .703
Stewart D1 winning %: .582"

Where did these numbers come from? They appear WAY OFF.

Gary Stewart Record*

UC Davis: 46-79 (.368)

*Stewart led us our of DII to DI, and actually had a decent year for a new DI program with 14 wins.

I'm cautiously optimistic. The easy part is completed. ... Blue's synopsis is fine, but it's not gospel. ... Neither Foster or Biggs rebuilt programs...

How about some insight... any insight... beyond injuries...

Has Gould had any self reflection? ... Would he do anything different? ... Did he really think having three first-timers in top positions was wise? ... Was it wise to play the OLine the entire game versus Oregon?

I've met Coach Gould, he is a good man, I'd just like a little reflection.

A good writer tries to stay objective, but the love Bruce has for these two was too much months ago. Unfortunately, Coach Gould probably has one of the worst won-loss records in all of college football. This was an easy decision unless he went 6-5 or 5-6. I'm sure Blue had an ear full weeks into the job.

Most of the people on his list for consultation are out of respect, and / or politics. Coach Foster will have some great feedback. Where is Paul Hackett, Chris Peterson (too busy?), and others, to pinpoint potential coaches?

I liked how the College of Idaho selected Moroski. They called up Chris Peterson at Boise State and asked, "If you were starting a football program, who would you hire?"

Any added insight via the recent KDVS program?

... and is this the 7th or 8th time Bruce has grieved Teresa Gould's departure? We get it, we get ...
