Not an original thought, but great assistant coaches don’t always make great (or even good) head coaches. Snagging a high profile guy from the new champs looks good, we’ll see how it plays out. And it often starts with hiring the wrong staff.

[CHIEF 5203]

Maybe these coordinator hires will make Okam reconsider.

Yep, it's a splash, but not necessarily a future success.

When Briles was at Baylor, they got damn good talent. Briles was not working with low level recruits like Rhule did.

He showed the ability to develop, at least

Yeah. If you're going to hire a coordinator from a championship program, you should wait until they have, oh, I don't know, let's say, two years under their belt as a HC at an American Conference school. Oh, wait...

Rutgers must be pretty good at football. They’ve had a bunch of top tier coaches.

Good hire for Baylor. He needs to keep as much of that staff as possible

Can we still say fuck baylor?

[A’Dam Psycho 1490]

This is somewhere between a meh to bad hire. A defensive minded coach with no experience in the Big 12. I just don’t see it

[texasstrong12 4668]

Excluding internal hires (like Riley) who was the last coordinator/position coach hired in the Big 12 that had success with zero experience as a head coach? 

The first few names that come to mind are Ron Prince, Beaty, Kingsbury and Paul Rhoads. All of those guys were fired. 

To the Big 12's credit it seems like they normally hire coaches with head coaching experience. Bob Stoops was the last coordinator hired that had success (external hire that is)?

[GreenspointTexas 9933]

Yeah uh, can aranda stop big 12 offenses on the reg? I think he will be a decent hire at first, but baylor could have done a lot better... and a lot worse. Im gruntled by this hire, as its not as good as I thought baylor would do, AND it weakens LSU next season

 

chargrilled oysters at Mansours on Sept 12 on me!

[GreenspointTexas 9933]

Also, if we cant beat next years lsu team breaking in a new coaching staff and qb and a buncha starters... then... well, uh... thatd be a real bad deal for you Tommy... so just uh, go out there and get’er done

[Francisco 2.0 32545]

Losing 8 or 9 defensive starters was going to be kind of a big deal for Baylor next season, no matter who was the coach.

Probably going to have to break in a new QB as well.  Brewer ought to walk away while he still can.

[demos 3032]

Brewer ought to walk away while he still can.

As it is, you’ll probably have to point him in the direction of the door.

Should’ve photoshopped him in the rape smock. Could’ve been their thing going forward.

Well, he is friends with Herman, so I would certainly guess that places him a pretty fair distance from "normal."

[El Squared 1838]

JFC , we  need to beat their ass before we prognosticate upon the future for other schools, just sayin’.

Regular season 7-5 isn’t something to stick our chest out about IMO.

We need to just STFU and take care of business for a while. We haven’t done anything of significance in a while.

It’s effing Baylor. It’s a great hire for them and he will likely have success. Will this be the second time Baylor out-decides Texas for a better head coach?

As a piece of shit as Art Briles is their last two hires are far better than our last two hires

They beat 5 top 10 teams... and multiple conference/ division winners.  Of all the SEC scheduling horseshit; LSU is hardly guilty of cream puffing its way to the title.

It might end up being a great hire but they hired a coordinator with zero head coaching experience. It's a huge risk and nobody really has a clue how it will turn out.

People are also drastically overrating Rhule's tenure at Baylor. I know it was a rebuild and Rhule did some great things. He also went 19-20 at Baylor with a losing record in the Big 12. Baylor's roster is in complete rebuild mode again and it's just as likely Rhule's year 4 was going to be similar to year 1 and 2. People talk about Rhule like he stacked 3 or 4 good seasons at Baylor.

yeah, you're right.  LSU was propped up by scheduling.

Who beat more Top 10 teams and Conference /Division Champs this season?

now shut the fuck up and move along...

[CurlyDumps 4618]

Another prudent move by an LSU staffer while his stock is sky high. He'll be cashing fat buyout checks when he's fired in three years.

Who the fuck said anything about a cream puff schedule? The point I was trying to convey is that without Brady/Aranda and losing a heap of key players LSU will once again return to being a 9 win team under the Ogre. I mentioned Troy that team from the Sun Belt because several years ago they fucking beat LSU in Baton Rogue.
