I don’t know. Hill’s goal was 100% to take over for Whitt when he retired. That’s why he left Utah. He wanted to show he could be a HC, which he did. The problem is, sometimes you prefer the guy who is there and Scalley got the job.
I think if Hill were to do his life over again, when Pease retired and Whitt called him at Weber St and offered him the DC job, he would have taken it.
I think I might consider it if I’m him for a few reasons:
1 – BYU is a dumpster fire. They will not go bowling this year and might not get to 3 wins. I know everyone thinks he will take over for Kalani, but why would he? Unless BYU decides to throw some of the hundreds of billions they’ve accumulated…you can’t succeed there. And there is a good chance BYU is left behind again in 2030.
2 – USU is actually a good job to find a better job. If you succeed there, you will get a P5 job offer. So many great coaches have gone through that school…ok, maybe not great, but so many P5 coaches used USU as a stepping stone to another job. And Hill would kill it there. Within 3-5 years he would be winning 10+ games a year there.
3 – Even if he doesn’t want to leave Utah, he could win the MWC most years there and have a lot of success and become USU’s Kyle Whittingham. Be there for 20+ years, give them a ton of success and then retire with a statue.
Honestly, if I’m him, I really, really, really consider it.
He could win 6 games this year and be around 9-10 next year. USU is ripe for success.
BYU isn’t. Unless BYU is willing to spend some of that tithing money on football like they have with basketball. Then BYU could turn it around quick as long as they look the other way with the HC. But the HC is why I wouldn’t touch the BYU job with a ten foot pole. It’s not a big deal until it is, then you get destroyed by their self righteousness.
