IT TOOK TWO MONTHS?
Really? I am not totally against Parker, very disappointed but whatever it's Kirks head that people will be calling for now. And rightly so if the poop hits the fan.

But it took two months to announce an internal promotion?? REALLY KIRK?

I am one of your biggest supporters here, but yikes...this is bad.

Yes, not following your timeline surely must be .....bad. You are certainly entitled to your opinion. Congrats on being the first to fling poo!

Parker is a good hire. Why the wait? Possibly because the other candidate was busy until last Sunday, and when he had time to make a decision, he turned it down. Possiby.

The OC will be an outside hire, with experience. It had better be an outside hire.

You best brace for disappointment.

I think it will be an outside hire. If it's not, I'll pee myself, much like l did late last week, for different reasons.

Kirk needs to hire someone who is going to be a head coach within 5-8 years. We need someone who is one of the best in the field. Then hire BF as an understudy, to eventually have the OC position. Shortly after, the HC position... I can dream can't I?

Is that a threat?

Re: IT TOOK TWO MONTHS?
Two months to name Parker...ridiculous. If you're going with Parker, name him. Make the stability statement and secure recruiting. If you're going for someone "bigger", fine THEN it's worth the delay. Like everything else Ferentz does...too damn slow, too indecisive, and no understanding of the bigger picture.

Don't misinterpret my complaint, Parker is a good coach and he may do a great job as DC.

It's Ferentz's pathetic managerial skills that drive me (and a lot of other people) nuts.

I think he waited 2 months so the recruits would sign and so no1 would get scared by a no name coach but if he proves himself this year it will be good

You say "secure recruiting" -- this didn't hurt recruiting. Missed out on Lambert at LB is the biggest loss. That was because of a DC not being named, he wanted to play near home. I know we missed out on a couple more DL but we have a solid class coming in on D and DL so the naming of DC didn't hurt recruiting one bit.

Agreed. All it seemed to do was stir the msg board pot for a couple months. Had little negative impact on the program.

You get the feeling this is like the last drive of the first half where you got time to score but they take a knee.
