Best of luck to IU OC DeBoer!

Averaged 35 pts a game last year and Qb threw for almost 3700 yds. Intriguing hire!

Did those teams defense stay relatively the same. We all saw how Wilson’s high scoring offense just left the defense out to dry

Wait, it took him 2 seasons to fix the offense at EMU? Hard pass. Obviously a mid-major talent.

And, yeah, sarcasm. Welcome aboard, Coach. Sounds like an intriguing hire. I’m all for going the non-retread route.

Well that’s not your typical hire.

I watched Fresno a couple times this season. Don’t hate this hire at all.

We're getting a guy who's in charge of the 18th nationally ranked Fresno St offense, who just won a second straight bowl game (against Arizona St and Houston last year). They were also ranked the year before until the regular season finale loss to Boise St. Before that he helped turn around one of the worst teams in college football (Eastern Michigan) who went from a perennial 2 win per season team to a bowl game in year 3 of his tenure.  This is an unbelievable hire and a guy I thought would be getting HC offers this off season.

I'm not sure it's valid to argue Wilson's offenses caused his awful defenses. Our defense was awful because we had zero play makers and couldn't get stops, especially in the secondary.

Giving the other team an extra 6-8 possessions with a high octane offense sure isn’t going to help the D any. Especially one with no depth

I like this hire.

Right, thus drive-based stats can be a better measure of defense quality, mich like tempo-free numbers in hoops.

I saw those once reported by quarter. My favorite way to gauge.

Seems like a very good hire. Upped the pay too, way to go out and get your guy.
