This is the DC coordinator thread but it is not surprising we have expanded to show concern for the future of the program given the difficulties we have had getting a DC. My 2 cents as one of ABs resident Kool-Aid drinkers (which has been watered down the past few years).
1) I totally believe HCMM is a legit HC for a P5 program and I think he is a great coach for rebuilding us back up
2) No clue if he can get us to competing for P12 championships as that is a tall order for any coach
3) The administration has really ramped things up the past year+, starting with hiring a big boy AD in RG
4) RG quickly backed up his hire with the most important facilities project we have seen in decades
5) We can all bitch and moan that we didn´t have the wins last year, but last year was the first time in a decade we were regularly competitive in most games we played including occasionally away from home and being significant underdogs
6) In this his 3rd year, HCMM needs to convert the promise of more wins into more wins. How many, not sure, but I´d like to see at least 5. That would show real progress beyond moral victories
7) Never was a fan of HCMM bringing virtually his whole SJSU staff with him. Appears I underestimated Lindgren but many of us were right that the game at the highest level had past Baer by
8) I was worried HCMM was too loyal to staff (based on #7) but by all accounts, Baer was (rightfully) pushed out by HCMM. So good on him.
9) Damnit lets get a freaking DC that has some chops (I may be in the minority but I´d be thrilled with Ball in light of the worse case scenario I had thought)
10) We are under performing in a big way in recruiting and that has to get fixed. Combination of wins on the field, new facilities coming on line, and better recruiters are needed.
Go Buffs.
