MikeRoberts Posted November 5, 2019 Posted November 5, 2019 I haven’t read many posts in this thread so jumping in super late and uninformed, BUT want to say that Allen and the guys have had a great season and despite my objection to Glass’ approach to his hire, I’m really proud of what they’ve done this year.Had they not blown the MSU game this could go down as one of the best seasons ever Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mamasa, Walking Boot of Doom, HoosierAloha and 1 other 4 Quote

As much trash as I've talked, it's not like Jeff Brohm is a bad coach. I'm just not ruling it out, but I agree it's highly unlikely. If they can win the next two with no running game and a walk on QB, that’s not a miracle, that’s a deal with the devil Quote

And we’d be ranked. Wild to imagine. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app thebigweave 1 Quote
Alford Bailey Posted November 6, 2019 Posted November 6, 2019 The Allen to FSU talk is comical. Florida St won a national title just five years ago and just paid $20 million to remove a mistake. A good hire can turn that program quickly. It wont be Allen. Gahoosierfan 1 Quote

IDK seems like it might be like IU circa 2008. Where there’s stuff behind the scenes making it difficult to succeed. Quote

Lebowski Posted November 6, 2019 Posted November 6, 2019 In my opinion CTA isn't going anywhere. It appears that he's all in with Hoosier football. I think the only job I could see him taking would be something like Notre Dame, and that ain't gonna happen. I honestly think he's home. Man, I sure hope I don't eat crow on this.

I agree with this but also believe he’ll need to be paid. I think he likes the underdog role with a constant “fight” mentality. However, if, like just about anyone, he feels dissed by being low balled I could see him seeking a different job. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote
Naturalhoosier Posted November 6, 2019 Posted November 6, 2019 He'll also have to continue ratcheting up the recruiting standards. I'd like to see IU sitting routinely at 5-7 within the conference year in and year out. We have come so very far, but still have a mountain to climb. upperarlington, HoosierAloha and WayneFleekHoosier 3 Quote
Lebowski Posted November 6, 2019 Posted November 6, 2019 1 hour ago, Hardwood83 said: I think you are right and he stays put. There are enough examples of coaches "reaching for the brass ring" and making moves that in retrospect look foolish (Rich Rod from his alma mater West Virginia to Mich, for example) but I will be shocked if Allen jumps to the flavor of the week job. If IU does well again next year, there will be suitors though. Maybe I'm naive but even if this year isn't a fluke and our beloved Hoosiers perform this type of season on a constant basis I still think he stays put. He seems to be all about Hoosier football and here to prove something. VPC 1 Quote

Winning 7 games a year will get him a statue outside Memorial Stadium. But IU is going to have to give him adequate resources. No more nickel and diming. Pay up to keep DeBoer. He’s the most successful IU coach since before my dad was born. You aren’t wrong. If he wins us a bowl game getting 9 or 10 wins he might already have earned a statue VPC and southsidehoosier 2 Quote

DeBoer is turning out to be a great hire that's for sure. DeBoer is getting paid. Something like 800k a year that could end up being $1 million per year with bonuses. I believe it's the highest paid OC in the history of the program. So hats off to Glass as well because he ponied up some cash. And I'd be fine if DeBoer goes on to pursue bigger and better things. He's earned it. It'll just mean that CTA will have to make another hire at OC. That's part of being successful at this kind of job. And with the precedent set I don't think money will be an issue.
