why?


Picking between all these mid options this year is an art not a science

I like his QB and ability to recruit TX

Won't have to overpay to get him to leave his alma matter. I'm soured on all the alma matter guys except Key, who I don't think is leaving the most, so I don't talk about him.

he is kind of a 1 hit wonder in G5

Largely applies to Dillingham as well as most of the other mid options this year

bro not even close

I posted this in another thread

quote:

oh you mean the coach who took over a 3-9 dumpster fricking fire from Herm Edwards...same Arizona state that was being investigated when he took over, had a bowl ban his first season, reduced scholarships etc.....yet same coach had them in the playoffs in this second season and will finish 9-3 this year.

same coach that went and found some white running back from Sac State that nobody really wanted...yea he turned out to be pretty good, same coach who took the back up QB who wasnt even allowed to attempt 25 passes...yea he turned out to be pretty good.

same coach who has Jeff fricking Sims playing at an all conference level...yea the same Jeff Sims that got ran off at Gtech because he couldnt throw for 1500 yards in a whole damn season.


same coach that had bo nix as rookie of the year when he was OC at auburn where he averaged 32 points per game, helped them get a 9-3 record and their highest recruiting class of Gus's tenure

same coach who had memphis as a top 5 OC in his two years as OC there

same coach who in his 1 season at oregon as OC...got the same bo nix that was ran out of auburn after sucking since dilingham left....to become 3rd in the heisman voting?


same coach who has been extremely successful in both recruiting and on offense and with QBs at all his stops but specifically memphis, auburn, florida state all in the south. then killed it at oregon and has killed it at Arizona state


anything but a 1 hit wonder. has them back to where they are prolly going 9-3 using a back up qb

"im ok with that but why does the saban tree matter? his tree doesnt have a huge success rate."

Ok, now i understand what i'm replying to. That's the dumbest thing i have read on here, maybe ever. You must watch college football with a fricking blindfold on. I am done replying to you, i cant believe that was just said lol

kiffin is about to go to the playoffs with a backup. 2 of his 3 losses he had his starter, lets stop blaming the backup.

is 9-3 good enough to get you the job at LSU?

I live in the valley and I can tell you the job he has done here is nothing short of phenomenal.

He has everything you want in a rising star coach. Is he perfect? No. Neither is Saban.

He would be hard to pull from his alma mater, but if we miss on Kiffin I really hope we make him say no.

I wouldn’t be as high on him if he had zero experience in the SEC, but he knows what it’s like.

He would win a lot of games. A lot against ranked teams. I think he would have us in the playoffs close to 40% of his tenure at LSU if LSU is serious about the NIL support they were gonna give Lane. Maybe closer to 50% could be expected given his skill with qbs.

Asu is not a “small” program. He believes it to be a sleeping giant. So do people like Tom Lugonbill. Other than higher community and possibly admin support I think Asu is a diamond in the rough. This may be a reason he won’t leave.

My argument is not that hes not a good young coach - he is.
Is he being overhyped at the same time? Yes.
There are undoubtedly better candidates in my opinion.

He is not ready for the LSU job or deserving of it, at this point in his career. I think hes in a great spot at ASU.

I mean we aren’t getting Lanning. We aren’t getting Ryan Day.

Taking a shot at a coordinator is more of a gamble than Dillingham.

This is a coaching changes board where everything and everyone will get analyzed and over analyzed and hyped and overhyped and under-hyped.

We can take any candidate you choose that is better and annihilate their qualifications to be head coach.

The reality is that every hire is a crapshoot. Other than OSU hiring Urban and Bama hiring Saban. Perhaps Peterson to Washington. But I could argue the opposite.

Kirby, Day, Mack Brown, etc. Look at Deboar’s record prior to Bama. Guy was practically can’t miss.

None of us know. Lane seems like the most likely to be successful, but no guarantee even with him.

before this season, kiff was 9-3 or worse almost every season. so is that good enough?

how did that work out last time we went after the white whale?

Glenn Schumann - if we’re going young you give this guy an interview, Saban and Kirby coaching tree Brian Hartline- the most elite recruiter in the country Kliff Kingsbury - as unlikable as he is, he’s a great offensive mind and a lot of experience Want some veteran experience? Todd Monken - he’s seen it done in the SEC and knows what it takes to Willie Fritz- he’s old but he’s a hell of a coach


You can’t say Dillingham isn’t ready and then say this

Your list is generally fine and reasonable but you lose all credibility and confirm yourself a retard when contrasting it against your prior statements. WHAT AN IDIOT!

34-24 6–5–1, 6–6, 7–5 and 9-2 This guy sucks! One good fricking season in the previous four seasons and the two losses in the good season were absolutely routs.


quote:

wait what? he was 3-9 taking over a team on probation, banned from a bowl and in shambles, then went 11-3 where the regular season losses where by a TD to texas tech, and 10 to cincy. the third was the playoff loss in OT to texas this year the losses where to state by 4, in a last min miracle, a blowout loss to utah and a td loss to houston the week after losing his QB. yea that dude never has good seasons


Since no one has caught on to my post, the 34-24 and…
6–5–1, 6–6, 7–5 and 9-2
were Nick Saban’s previous 4 years before taking the LSU job. No one on TD would have wanted to hire him based on those stats as a HC. No one. And, he “wasn’t one of us”.

Dillingham is a talented coach. He’s not leaving Arizona State though….at least not for a long time unless they make him mad. Everything he loves is located right there including money.

Why anyone would say this about anyone other than Kirby and maybe Dabo is beyond me. Coaches every year say they’re not leaving and then do it. Countless examples of it. Lincoln Reilly, Saban, etc, etc.

Even Lanning is poachable for the right job imo

this is the same guy that thinks the "saban" coaching tree is important lol

yea worked out so well for florida, they have went to that well 3 times and it has failed them every single time.

jimbo killed it at A&M right?

could go on and on


dude is a fricking idiot

name career assistants that have never called plays and says they are more prepared the kenny dillingham who has had his team in the playoffs and following it up with another good year

i agree but the problem is ASU and funding, period. he is out there begging local small businesses to do NIL deals and the same admin is telling the businesses no for tours, even if they do a 25k nil deal. proof was posted today.
