    Salary inflation in past four years is tremendous. I haven’t the slightest idea what’s fair.

    Man this hire sucks. Too bad we couldn’t have gone after a young up-and-coming coordinator at a ranked school who is an excellent recruiter. Oh wait… /sarcasmoff

    I give this hire a 1 on the excitement scale, and a 9 on the potential scale.

    That leaves lots of room for me to get excited and little room for me to be disappointed.

    The players absolutely matter. They don’t have to endorse the hire, but they can absolutely derail anyone they don’t want. Ask Hudspeth!!

    Would like to hear from someone more knowledgeable than me... which is almost anyone on this board.
    Don’t know. I know he was an analyst on LSU’s staff when he left for Baylor then went back to LSU as an on field coach. Joe Borough invited him to the heisman presentation and credits him with much of his success.

Nor does he have the network needed to find great assistants or to recruit like we need. I hope he surrounds himself with deeply experienced assistants. I also hope that a year from now I have to eat every word of this.
    I would agree. This program is in a spot where we will draw significant interest and we should certainly make having at least coordinator experience a major criteria. I just can't see many other schools promoting a QB coach or TE coach to HC right off the bat even if the outgoing coach said it was a good decision. If Des was that hot of a commodity, wouldn't Napier have taken him with him?

    No way, but I do think they licked their collective fingers to see which way the wind was blowing.

    Super happy for Mike. Regardless of how he does as a coach from a wins and losses perspective, he’ll be a great ambassador for the university and athletic department.

    He isn't a coordinator. You can say he's a co-coordinator but we all know who the guy calling plays and driving the offensive philosophy are.
