OT: 2022-23 Coaching Carousel
- Thread starter rutgersguy1_rivals
- Start date
Well Petrino hasn’t gotten OC yet but is just interviewing.Holy smokes. I guess these two were not available?
Well Troy Taylor is free now for Stanford if he’s the choice. Sac State lost in the FCS playoff last night to Incarnate Word 66-63. Looks like 57 points scored in the 4th quarter. Must’ve been as a crazy as the UNC App State game

From an Athletic article
In 2019 he took over a Sacramento State program that had won two games in three of the previous four seasons and had not captured a Big Sky championship since joining the league in 1996. Taylor’s first team went 9-4 and won the conference. The Hornets did not play in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, then came back and won the league again in 2021. Sacramento State completed the 2022 regular season 12-0 and entered Friday night’s game ranked No. 4 nationally in scoring offense (41.2 points per game).

Don't tell @Caliknight about this.
Why? Because they could have a coach resign and hire a coach in a week?
No. You keep missing my point. The part about him turning around an FCS team in 2 years. FCS. Let's see how he does at Stanford, but Stanford is not the project Rutgers was in 2019-20.
Sure it is. They just went 3-9 and 1-8 in conference. Stanford is much harder to win at considering their academic restrictions. Schiano has none.
Not really.
Lost to USC 41-28
UW 40-22
Oregon 45-27
Oregon State 28-27
BYU 35-26
Beat Notre Dame
They had a functional offense and put up a fight against top teams.
Compare RU 2020
Iowa 30-0
Michigan 520-
Maryland 48-7
Indiana 35-0
Minnesota 42-7
Illinois 38-10
Ohio State 51-26 (Close!!)
MSU 27-0
Penn State 27-6
Recruiting was horrific, and program was in shambles after Flood and Ash errors. You can't even begin to compare the two. Shaw ran a solid program. But if you need a narrative, you will find one and use it.
I'm not making excuses for Greg. But as I typed 2020, I thought that could have been 2022, which is scary. This was a very bad year. Greg needs to do better in 2023. Much better.
I think he turned around Sac State in his first year. He went 30-8 but only one other coach was even .500 and that was awhile ago. I do think Stanford is pretty hard now because unlike other schools which will lose and gain players with the portal, Stanford will mostly lose rather than gain because of the academic requirements. A couple other schools may be similar. I think their AD said you can expect maybe 4-5 players they could get from the portal.

| John Volek | 1995–2002 | 31–57–1 | .354 |
| Steve Mooshagian | 2003–2006 | 11–33 | .250 |
| Marshall Sperbeck | 2007–2013 | 35–44 | .443 |
| Jody Sears | 2014–2018 | 20–35 | .364 |
| Troy Taylor | 2019–2022 | 30–8 |
He was recommended to Deion by Leach to be his OC at JSU. I was wondering if he’d come along in some capacity to Colorado.
Yea I posted a separate thread when the news came out about the seriousness of it.
Sounds like a shot at Deion. Mind you a school like Stanford needs to keep all its bodies because the transfer portal for them is closer to a one way street because of the academic requirements.
Interesting comments from Brohm on his taking the Purdue job years ago:
"Even when I took on the Purdue job, 90 percent of my colleagues told me not to take the job. That’s what intrigued me even more. As I took that on, I said I was going to help this program get over the hump and achieve its goals. We were able to find a way to go to a bowl that first year and win it."
Brohm took the Purdue job on Dec. 5 2016- about one year after Ash took the RU job. Wonder if Brohm was on the long or short list back in 2015 for the RU job?
Good read:
Rumors on Brohm replacement:
Tyson Helton [of Western Kentucky] and JaMarcus Shephard, current associate HC and PGC at UW.

Purdue not going with offense and instead with one of the more hot defensive names this year.

OL coaches and OCs often are pairs that have worked together in the past. Sometimes they move as a pair. I’m guessing Mack is looking to the Briles/Leach tree again.
Yea he was and now a few years later his mentor Rocky Long is supposed to be the next DC at the Cuse.
No not yet. But if his OL coach is from Briles tree, I’d guess the next OC might be from Leach/Briles too but we’ll see.
