Utah

As would Whitt. As would 99% of people. Be real man.

No…but yes.

If I’m Whitt and I’m owed 20 million I tell Utah to pound sand, I’m not retiring.

Now, if Utah comes to Whitt and says, “Hey. Here’s 12 million. Wanna retire?” Then the negotiation of the buyout begins.

Whitt technically “retires” but he didn’t really retire. He was asked politely (and with a big check) to retire.

Sometimes making $500,000 a year with a good routine is enough for people. And that’s great for us.

Look at the Philadelphia Eagles. They easily have the best OL coach in the NFL. Been with the Eagles for 12 years. Sometimes great money doing something you love is great.

Harding was one of our many, many OC’s. I wonder if he didn’t like it.…[Read more]

This is tough. I get why Whitt doesn’t change. He makes millions of dollars a year, he gets to live around his family, etc, etc, etc.

To make a drastic change on the offensive side of the ball…it’s risky. Sure, you can win a big time bowl game, maybe even a national championship. BUT, if you lose more…well, this is a fickle job and fans and…[Read more]

I think everyone knows that Troy Taylor is a HC in spite of Whitt, not because of Whitt.

Oklahoma feels like the next Nebraska. Great history, top dog of their small, shitty conference, leave for a new conference and can’t get back to the top.

If you’re a recruit, and Oklahoma and Nebraska offer you, why would you go there over Ohio State, Michigan, Penn St, Alabama, Texas, A&M, Auburn, LSU, etc?

There is zero chance an uptempo OC would want to coach with Whitt.

If Whitt is our HC, it doesn’t matter who we hire as OC. We know what our offense will look like.

Scalley is Utah whipped. He isn’t going anywhere. He has the job when Whitt leaves, whenever that is.

He’s probably being paid as much as a lot of head coaches.

And he knows if he leaves, he may never come back. If he leaves, it opens the door to Jay Hill and everyone else.

Scalley ain’t going anywhere. And if he does, Utah will be just fine.

As for #1 – part of this issue is the rule changes. The games rules are set up to score a lot of points. You can’t fight the system. When the system says “score points” you trying to not score points as your main emphasis is too hard.

2- part of this is Whitt can’t keep players long enough. Look at JaQuindon Jackson and Greg Lloyd. Jackson…[Read more]

Yeah, it’s nuts. UCF fans complaining about how they are stuck with Gus for another year because they can’t afford a 12 million dollar buyout and now they are all rejoicing because he quit.

This conference sucks.

I’m fine. I’m not sold on Scalley, but I also don’t think you should have two head coaches like we did this year.

It’s too hard.

So, I say go with Scalley.

2nd – if Whitt stays, the be a Campbell/Siriani coach and let your coordinators do their thing.

Whitt needs to take a page from Dan Campbell and Nick Siriani’s playbook:

Be a head coach that doesn’t do jack shit except make sure everyone is happy and take the blame for bad calls that your OC/DC made but you tell everyone you made that call.

I guess he will go bowling but him and Bernard…we are a playoff team.

It’s too bad he bailed for Arkansas.

I love Singer. But I don’t feel bad for him.

He’s everything we always complain about.

Bailed on Arizona to go to USC. When that didn’t work for him, he bailed on them.

Karma is a bitch sometimes.

Him not playing more this year is another stain on Whitt’s record with the offense.

We know who our next HC is: Scalley.

I don’t care if Whitt comes back or not. BUT, if he comes back, I want the following stipulation:

He has NO SAY in ANY offensive decision. Turn the offense over to Scalley. Let Scalley hire, make gametime decisions, have final say in the depth chart, etc.

Over the past 20 years Whitt has shown he is…[Read more]

I love this. It’s the nice version of Larry David’s “FUCK YOU!!!…and I’ll see you tomorrow.”

I love all you guys.

Thank you Tony!!!
