Northern Illinois has left the MAC to join the Mountain West. Just asinine.

Harbaugh's stints at USD and Stanford slipped by mind, but it still makes the point that jumping from college to the NFL is not easy at all.Originally posted by Ram040506 View Post
Harbaugh started at San Diego and Stanford prior to San Francisco. He most certainly was a college coach before his NFL success. He would be the only real current example.

I don't think Zack was OC he was running backs coach and recruiting coordinator., when he left SRU originally he went to Sam Houston St. A year or two after that QB Don King transferred to THE ROCK from Sam Houston St.Originally posted by Fightingscot82 View PostFun story. Former Slippery Rock OC Phil Longo is the new head coach at Sam Houston State. He just hired a new OC, Zack Patterson. Patterson was also OC at Slippery Rock.

Most of your recent head coaching "rising stars" (Sean McVay, DeMeco Ryans, Kevin O'Connell, Dan Campbell) were NFL offensive or defensive coordinators with highly successful teams, with Ryans and Campbell having extensive NFL playing experience as well.
Other than Pete Carroll, Jimmy Johnson and Bill Walsh, has a college coach truly had extended success in the NFL in recent years? (And, for purposes of this discussion, I'm not including Jim Harbaugh, since he had a solid run in Santa Clara with the 49ers before leading Meatchicken to a national title - and, you can debate the legitimacy of that title all you want, they still won it whether you like it or not, and I'm not a Meatchicken supporter by any stretch. I was also hesitant to put Pete Carroll on that last since he coached the Patsies before some guy named Belichick took over in Foxborough and, if we're being candid, was dreadful in his first go around in the NFL before landing at USoCal.)
To my point, ask the Arizona Cardinals how well their experiment with Kliff "Coach Bro" Kingsbury went after plucking him from Texas Tech (all because Kingsbury just happened to coach a dude by the name of Patrick Mahomes in Lubbock).

I wouldn’t be surprised if Notre Dame was in the mix for him too.Originally posted by IUPbigINDIANS View PostTexas QB Quinn Ewers has until Wednesday to declare for the NFL Draft (where his stock has fallen some).
With Texas going to Arch Manning, Ewers can become a very high dollar Portal free agent.
Suitors, should he enter the Portal, are said to be North Carolina, Ohio State and USC. ESPN projects his college price tag will be $4.5m to $5m.
My college job paid $5.95 an hour. Some guys have all the luck.

Especially when you had to follow in the footsteps of the QB1 who led the Georgia program to back-to-back national titles as part of a stacked roster which would've made the 2024 Cleveland Brownies look like a team of UFL rejects. Talk about borderline unreasonable expectations for any quarterback to live up to.Originally posted by EyeoftheHawk View Post
I think he’s also a little fed up with the Bulldog fan base and the way he’s been treated. Right or wrong, I can see why the kid wanted a change of scenery that came with more cash than most of us have in our IRA’s and having his girl around full time.

IUP needs a QB.Originally posted by ctrabs74 View Post
Ewers, who I thought was massively overrated in the first place, somehow thinks he'll get a warm reception if the enters the portal and exits in Columbus... How cute.
Somehow, I wouldn't be shocked if he ends up in Chapel Hill with Belichick. Because of the three options, Ohio State seems unlikely and why would any sane quarterback prospect want to end up trapped in the "Lose-a-Lot Linc" vortex that exists in LA?

Are pro jobs better than an elite job at a P4 power house? Depends on the owner…too many dumpster fire NFL organizations.

They definitely need to get better in the receiver room. While Franklin takes a lot of heat, some of it deserved, it says something for that program that they were able to get three talented backfield guys returning to finish things off. All three, especially Singleton and Allen, certainly would have gotten looks elsewhere if they'd hit the portal.Originally posted by EyeoftheHawk View Post
Penn State should be better next year than they were this year, assuming they get some WR talent. Other teams will be better too so it doesn’t guarantee anything, but both of those guys agreeing to stay another year together speaks volumes.

Looks like they are keeping their backfield intact.

Beck’s an interesting case; he’s RS senior but he’s also only 22 per Wikipedia. I imagine if he’d had another year like his first as a starter he’d be gone but he regressed in multiple areas. A bounceback year at Miami could still get him some draft consideration given he’d be about the same age as guys like McDaniels and Burrow were on draft night. I don’t know if he’s got the tools/skills to play his way up to a first round grade but I don’t blame him for possibly cashing $4mil to see if he can at least get back into the mid-rounds conversation rather than rolling the dice now.
