Coach Kelly Situation

[udonkey]

I was more or less bringing it up because they are tracking flights over there. The thread was started on there boards because someone claimed it was headed to Gainsville

Gotcha. Note this blog post - the school clearly thought ahead of time:

I can't figure out the site but if anyone else does, reverse for outgoing from Lunken.

Does cincy have a jet?

the only true way for this to be resolved is for Kelly to coach both teams next year. Maybe they will square off in a bowl game too, and Kelly can call plays for both offenses, since he loves to "score, score, score"

The latest from footballcoachscoop.com:

Notre Dame
According to our source close to the situation, Skip Holtz (East Carolina Head Coach) has been in contact with Athletic Director Jack Swarbrick. Our source
tell us that the search seems to be headed his way and expect a meeting to take place after the Conference USA Championship game.

Wow. If this is the case I would be very surprised.

He's got the right last name.

Is Skip Holtz defense-minded?

[norwoodbearcat]

Why is this situation still bothering me?

The whole Edsall thing cooled down quickly, didn't it?

Skip Holtz went 9-5 last year and won the eastern division of the conference, and this year is 8-4 with a chance to go 9-4 and win the conference championship, plus a future bowl game. Not too shabby.

By the way, I saw Gonzaga down big to WSU (early in game).

I don't know that you can count anyone out. Coaches are all liars, and have NOTHING to gain by being honest when these things come up.

I haven't scanned this thread (no time) to see if anyone has mentioned candidates for our job, but I like Tommy T a lot. He NEVER failed at Auburn (7-5 may have been his worst season) and actually went undefeated once. He was shafted in getting fired. Also like Jeff Quinn a LOT, Butch Jones (CMU might try to bomb our campus if that happened), and yes, Chis I even like KC a bit - but it would depend HEAVILY on his staff.

That's my short list in preparing for the worst (although I do hope for the best).

Kevin Sumlin from Houston IMO.

I think he would be an excellent choice and would fit well with the players we currently have.

I like it. Add an "in" to some Texas high schools to the local talent, and we'd have a good shot to continue improved recruiting.

Gonzaga came back to win.
