How would Bo Rein have done?

Everything I've ever read about Bo Rein begins and ends with determination and drive. While those attributes can't guarantee success I do like them in a head coach.

Who knows

But my guess is the ppl that did coach here after him would have never coached here:

Arnsbarger, archer, hallman, dinardo, saban, miles all somewhere else or no where

If rein lives I doubt the dietzel ad drama happens

Everything would be different, no telling for better or worse

Actually, he would have probably coached at LSU till his dream job at Ohio State was open.

The Golden age was derailed on his death! Such high expectations. Who knows what the time line would have looked like if he would have lived. Sabun... Les ..et al.

So if Rein would have gone to OSU in 1988 to replace Earl Bruce, and assuming Rein had done well at LSU and made it a highly desirable job, who would have been the short list candidates to get the LSU job in 1988?

Spurrier??

That's nearly as bad as saying he would have crashed and burned.

I believe it was the year before when actually turned spurrier down. Perhaps another strong year at duke could have changed that.

Who was going to be on rein's staff? That'd be tough to find info on.

Please note that every coach on Coach Stovall's staff his first 2 years were Bo Rein guys. Coach Nix joined the staff in year 2 of Coach Stovall's tenure as an OL coach while Mac Brown replaced Bob Gatling as OC and Coach Nix replaced Greg Williams as DC before year 3. Rein was a split backfield veer guy who ran the crap out of Ted Brown at NC State.
