I know my posts are naturally irresistible, but you had me on “ignore” for less than a week. Exhibit some discipline, young man!Are you fantasizing again?

Bill Kenney is NOT coming back. He was part of Joe's staff so, unfortunately, that is strike one and two. Strike three is he is a pompous ass to boot.
Assuming Bowen is not the new OL coach, do we still like Mike Munchak?
Denver went 7-9, he’s 59, and PA is home. Then again I have no idea what top tier college OL coach pay is versus the NFL so I don’t know if PSU could be competitive.
I’ve always thought he’s done a heck of a good job with OLs but maybe I’m not fully tuned in.

CJF always has a book on coaches he would consider hiring so the replacement announcement should not be too long in coming.
I'm hoping the first words out of the new OL coach's mouth are "it's an open competition for playing time". Either Fries needs "coached up" or we need a new RT. Hope we don't have to endure another season of speed rushers beating him play after play and trashing Clifford.....

Actually (after watching the Bowl game replay several times) the CB young guns were a distinct improvement the second half.And yet Terry Smith survives.
Which positional group was worse during the second half of the season and in the bowl game?
The OL or the defensive secondary?

CJF not playing; he wants to win, knows we underperformed on offense, and believes in accountability. Thankfully he doesn’t listen to a few choice posters here and their pathetic histrionics. Onward and upward!
IIRC Mike took the job in Denver so he could be closer to his kids/grandkids
I doubt he’s coming back
He may not be a good coach as I know little about ol coaching but he is certainly not a pompous ass!
I can't ignore you. You're too annoying. It's part of this board's entertainment value. Even when I had you on Ignore I still would hit the view ignored content button just to keep up with your antics.I know my posts are naturally irresistible, but you only had me on “ignore” for less than a week.

This is good news as KC gets his man and hopefully we instill more of a power running attack to take advantage of the very good RBs. Oh yeah, maybe we can get a guy who can teach some pass blocking. We have talent on the O-Line and it never seems to reach its full potential.
Now, something has to be done with the DB coaching, right?

You mean, your voices.

Terry Smith is not Defensive Secondary. He is Corners. And to answer your question..."which positional group was worse....". I'd say Safeties were worse than the CBs. Let's just say that there are many times that it looks as if a CB is beaten, but it is deceptive because the CB is expecting help over the top from the Safety.
Interesting that the fan boy contingent on here never stopped screaming at the posters who found Rahne and Limegrover lacking. "All is well", they said.
Now both of those coaches are gone and it is not yet 2020.
I guess the people called "naysayers", "Pitt trolls", "people who have never been football coaches", "negativists", etc. were right all along? Imagine that!
The only question left is whether Terry Smith stays, or if his recruiting connections allow him to keep a job?
Are they required to advertise positions for internal promotions?
Very Surprised (with the caveat that I have no idea if there may be some issue(s) that I am not aware of)
I can't imagine that Bowen won't now take over the OL (he seems destined for bigger and better things over time)…… unless CJF has some "Sekrah-level" hire in mind
Put a helmet and shoulder pads on Bowen and make him an OT; guy is a freaking monster!
I dealt with him when I coached, trust me, he is an arrogant, pompous ass.
I’d agree with that assessment. Multiple times this year Wade was out of position after having his head in the backfield.
Not that I was particularly fond of Limgrover as a coach, but I’m hoping this doesn’t impact the recruitment of Rucci, Tengwall, etc. in the ‘21 class. Although I think Bowen has been the most consistent staff member recruiting those guys.
The coaching turnover at WR had an impact on a local prospect’s decision last cycle. Unfortunate that changes on positional coaches have been parallel to the strongest positional group prospect-wise in our region the last two recruiting cycles.

Well... Rahne probably knew or felt he was gone and seeked outside ops ... Now Limegrover... good guy just the Oline underperformed maybe he can latch on with Rahne
And perhaps the fact that he was not chosen tells us how unhappy Franklin was with him
I trust that Franklin knows what he’s doing and could get someone that may actually help with those guys
If he was, he would fit in nicely right here. And by "here" I mean the BWI Board.
I told you Franklin reads this board and noted our displeasure with Limegrover. I'm sure he also read the Pry thread. I wonder if Pry is next?
I thought the special teams coach was supposed to be the first one to leave? I'm confused.
I’m thinking the coaching salary pool was expanded with Franklin’s new deal and he’s ready to shop
I gave you a like because I got a kick out of the post, but Joe did move coaches around in such a way as to avoid calling it a firing.
What took CJF so long to fire him. Only 18 months ago at the Big Ten pre-season conference CJF said he was the best OL coach in the country.
Can’t wait to see our offense in 2020.
