Let's put this in perspective. Monken is a good coach.....maybe a great coach. We all knew that he was destined for better things, just not this soon. He is going back to the NFL not another college. There is no chance that he will take any recruits with him. Monken probably has his sights set on a HC job in the NFL. He is chasing his dreams. Hard to blame him for taking a significant step up. Sunny skies, good weather and beaches....need I say more.
USM is losing momentum for the moment.We are losing our HC and had already lost two good assistants. But we have a good class going and had tremendous success this past year after a dismal three years.
The onus is on our AD now. To regain the MO, we have to have a splash hire. I was not impressed with the BB hire but that is behind us now. BM must show that he recognizes the scope of the college game and what drives it. The new HC, IMO, must have the same philosophy offensively because of the way the team is built and the team needs some continuity. Does that mean hire from within? Maybe, but I think we should look to the Big 12 OC's as we have in the past. Most of those teams run very similar offensive schemes. I don't want to be in BM's shoes. He is in a tough spot with the time limitations. Pray for him......this is a big hire. We may need divine intervention.
SMTTT!!
