2024-25 Coaching Carousel

It mainly stems from hiring a woefully under qualified head coach stepping into an already poor situation left by the previous head coach.

You add in some clear overall mismanagement from the AD and this is the type of **** you get. That program is toxic right now.
DeShaun Foster was a terrible hire. And personally, I don't appreciate him trying to rip off a half dozen philosophies and tactics already perfected by HCP. Dude is a muppet and will be gone after 3 seasons.
 
I can't think of a worse fit for either side than Bill Belichick coaching college football in the NIL/portal era.
I actually think he could basically follow the Coach Prime model and be successful there. Wouldn't need to do in home visits, could pick and choose which recruits he wanted to pursue, and hire a staff of NFL guys. He's always been GM so the money aspect won't be anything new to him. Main issue would be who he could bring on staff to recruit for him.

He was not a very good GM though. And he would be walking into a situation where college players have way more leverage than NFL players.

Young men getting paid in today's CFB are not going to jive with a grouchy old white guy that wants to manipulate their lives is not going to work, dumb
Watching Chris Petersen sit at a desk is the saddest thing to me, but BB can go away and nobody will miss him

OC - McDaniels
DC - Patricia

It seemed to work for quite a while with young men getting paid in the NFL. Vast majority of his players loved that "grouchy old white guy"
 
I think all the comments questioning why Belichick may not be a good fit for UNC are totally valid.

I also can't think of a move Carolina could make this offseason that would get their football program more attention in the national spotlight. I also think this would send a message to the P2 that "we take football seriously -- you should give us an offer now and not wait until 2030"

The leverage difference is a fair point but I'm not convinced he wasn't a very good GM. He had some obvious flaws, especially in the later years, but he also won six SBs as defacto GM so it's hard for me to classify his tenure as not good*. Only one way to find out if it would work, but I think it could.

*Full disclaimer, I grew up a Pats fan in NE.

UCLA today feels a lot like the CU program under Karl Dorrell--there was really no hope at CU just two years ago. It illustrates what a fine job Coach Prime has done here, as well as the job Rick George did in getting him here.
 
This won't end well. Indiana's offense is all Cignetti's doing. Foster has no clue what he's doing. Break out the popcorn.
I disagree. Sunseri (Sal's son for those not aware) spent 2 years at Alabama as a GA, then 4 years working with Cignetti.
He's a former QB and he's been a coach's son his whole life.

I think there's a good bet he has the system down and is going to be a star. It's a better bet that he's no Pat Shurmur.:censored:

I think he's a great pick for UCLA given the budget over there.

He reminds me of the Nathaniel Hackett hire.

A “co” offensive coordinator that didn’t call plays.
 
It was a great job as a G5.
Prominent players announcing transfer mid season and Gus taking an OC job in the ACC (albeit a premium brand) after only two years is a major red flag about the quality of it. Not sure if they just don’t have anything in the way of good facilities, NIL and donors or what.
