Leipold just gets wins. Last year Buffalo threw the ball all over the place and now they pound the ball and control the clock. We would be lucky to have him as our coach.
The same way KC Keeler wasn't good enough for Rutgers because only only went to 4 straight D3 finals and won only 1 FCS title, Lance Leipold 6, D3 titles and his work in Buffalo in their D3 facilities is not good enough for Rutgers.Lance Leipold is the real deal but some snooty Rutgers fans won’t have a former div. III coach as Head coach. No matter that the guy has been super successful as a HC at every team he has coached.
You didn't watch that game for sure. Buffalo was up 10-7 at half, outgained PSU (429 to 357) and had more first downs (22 to 14). Penn State's superior skill players broke several long plays in the 2nd half to run up the score, but Buffalo played very credibly.But he got pummeled by the Nitwits.
Excellent comparison.I agree. He's a darn good coach. He competes with Buffalo resources. I see him as a Pikiell type guy
Would have to agree.Leipold or Schiano and then everyone else.

Chip Kelly says hi. And I don't give a **** about this comeback last night.What Pikiell has shown is you need someone who has been a HEAD COACH before, no more assistants to try to learn on the job at RU, and a proven Winner HC at that ... either Schiano or Leopold would be fine
In basketball I agree with you cause that's how most hires get made as opposed to assistants..in football you see both coordinators and previous HCs have success/failure and I don't notice any big diff in results therefore I don't like narrowing down the pool of candidates. You can have your preferences, perfectly sensible, but it doesn't mean the results are any different overall.What Pikiell has shown is you need someone who has been a HEAD COACH before, no more assistants to try to learn on the job at RU, and a proven Winner HC at that ... either Schiano or Leopold would be fine
Another proven coach Rutgers didn't even sniffed, esp if hes only making $3 million/ year at KansasI feel obligated, in this thread, to point out that Les Miles lost to WVU by 5 points yesterday.
Schiano lost to them in Year 1 by 73.
Just sayin...
wow,thats great a 55 year old lifelong Div3 guy is 2-2 at Buffalo!Leipold just gets wins. Last year Buffalo threw the ball all over the place and now they pound the ball and control the clock. We would be lucky to have him as our coach.

Trust me, the takeaway for someone watching wasn’t that PSU killed them. It was more “Buffalo played pretty well, but PSU just had some athletes at the skill positions that were able to break some big plays and make the score look a lot worse than it was”.Nope, you’re right, I didn’t watch it. All above may be true, but that final score wasn’t a score or two.
Buffalo had almost 18K in attendance at home vs Temple yesterday.
An article from nj.com estimated that our actual attendance for BC yesterday was about 18K.
Hobbs can expect home attendance to decline rest of this season, especially when the students check out.
I’ll take Leipold over Greg. One guy is doing the job right now while the other guy isn’t doing anything.
Me too!9/14/2019: Liberty 35. Buffalo 14; 10/26/2010: Liberty at Rutgers; even this game gives me an uneasy feeling
