UC Coaching Search Official Thread

Central Michigan worked once, maybe UC can find lighting in a bottle twice!

The thing about CMU is most of their success is due to Kelly's recruits and particularly Dan LeFevour.

vhAzetHeBoSS @Cam_BearcatDB21 so cam its lookin like we gettin the central michagan coach? have u heard anything about him?


That's Vidal Hazleton's twitter. He could be reading things off the web or he may have inside info.

In any case, discuss.

While we are talking players twitters...these are from Marcus Bones Barnett

same could be said about Kelly with Dantonio's recruits...
Either way, if Butch can take Kelly's players and win i'm cool with that!
I just don't get that argument really...so and so won with the other guys players...that's awesome! Imagine what he will be able to do when he gets his guys!

That catch he made with USC is one of the coolest action shots around..I would probably keep it up too!

This is a great point. We all act so desperate right now.

No matter how you got there, when you're 12-0, change usually doesn't sound like a good thing.

from Tom Dienhart:

I'm hearing that Butch Jones may be the guy at Cincinnati. Stay tuned.

Remember that "short list" that everyone hoped Mike Thomas had in his desk in case LB left? Turns out it was just a phone number with a 989-area code that he hadn't updated since Dantonio left.

[Forsure21]

I wouldn't mind Butch Jones at all except I like everything Quinn has to offer more so.

[daap_bearcat97]

So are we basically being told that there are really only 2 viable candidates from Bearcat Lair? They are only showing pics of, God Forbid, Skip Holtz and Butch Jones?!?

I am okay with Butch Jones and Jeff Quinn for that matter...but no way to Skippy. He would really have to win me and a number of others over. If MT hires him, I will support it 100%, but if he runs our program into the ground next year, I will be the first in line to starting a fire Skip Holtz site. Obviously, I am not a fan of him or his father.

Is there absolutely no chance in us hiring Bud Foster? Has he even talked to MT? If not him, may we have a chance with Mike Zimmer, Hue Jackson or Chuck Martin? I just can't believe that it comes down to this...where have the other candidates been?

Oh well in MT we trust...I support his decision 100%. Finger crossed.

Go Cats!

[bobestes]

He didn't hire Holtz last time, not sure why he would this time.

Wait for the "withdraw my name from consideration" line from Holtz. Then you'll know Butch Jones got it.

[waterhead]

How many candidates are out there with the Kelly/Tressel profile with previous national championship winning experience? Seems to me like a pretty good indicator of success.

Winning big games. Game planning. Motivation. Team unity. Etc. That would be one of my first factors to look at.
