2019-2020 Coaching Carousel

[Dowty]

Skip did a nice job not answering a question this morning about how much he loved Tech and the fans. Decided to talk about how much he likes coaching this year's team. Take it as you will.

Tells me all I need to know,

.....the feeling is mutual.

Bob Davie is a horrible coach.

Meaning he will land another job soon...probably doing an equally horrible job on TV.

Just think of the millions of dollars he has made coaching and on tv. One bowl win as a head coach in his entire career.

.........I just hope nobody wants our Cajun coach....he has done quite well!

Don't worry no one does!

Actually though--Young, aggressive, recruiting well, steadily improving==He will not be with you long if that is the case, doubling or tripling your salary is hard to turn down for a young coach climbing the ladder and especially if it is to a good recruiting area. He will constantly tell you how much he loves South La and the Cajun culture, but the right team comes calling and he is gone.

I believe I've seen it posted that know USL/UL-L Head Coach has ever been hired away by a FBS school.

That is a horrible reputation/status to have!

I hear Akron is already about to move on from their coach after only one season and Napier is on the top of their list. Wondering if the feeling is mutual.

Graveyard?

Graveyard?

I didn't see anyone that died

[BhadDawg]

I didn't see anyone that died

Their careers did!

[Bulldog Tom]

So you're saying Akron won't even take Napier after a few seasons in Laffy?

[dawg80]

Akron!? I don't even like ULL, their fans, their program, and don't give a rat's ass about Napier. But, even I would have to say, "Don't go there Billy boy! Akron sucks! The worst team in the nation in the weakest FBS league by far!"
