Brady "XLLL" Hoke (Head Coach San Diego State)

[Dryden]

Suga Shane didn't embarrass himself in their bowl game. So he has that going for him, which is nice. Of course, it was a ridiculously simplified game plan. I don't recall him completing a pass >10 yards the whole game. It was obvious he wasn't ready to run a real college offense.

Yes, but he would have been more than qualified to run our offense in 2011.

Walrusball is simply football in its most basic form. DAVE DAVE PASS

This is by far the most damning evidence against Hoke. I don't understand how they continue to give him a free pass when it's obvious that he'll never ever ever understand how to coach a Power 5 team.

I don't think he's getting a free pass from most the fan base these days. For a lot of us, it's put up or shut up time.

Weis and Hoke with identical career marks is appropriate

Randy Edsall.....goddamn man...uncle.

Can you define "put up or shut up time?" Would 8-4 be good enough? I'm seriously wondering how poor of year he needs to be fired.

Butch Jones is clearly the guy to win big games at Tennessee too

If Brandon is still around, 8 wins will probably secure one more season. 9 wins will probably have the fanbase content for one more season. 10+ wins and he'll be considered Bear Bryant.

Personally, anything less than 10 wins is a failure. Especially if they lose to sparty and osu again.

I think his job hinges on how he does against ND, Sparty, and tOSU. The rest of their schedule *should* be a cakewalk. Lose 2/3, especially in embarrassing fashion, I think he might be gone. ND appears beatable again, Sparty is going to be a tough one. I'm refraining from any predictions for The Game until I see how the team responds to losing their best player, and how much difference a more aggressive defense makes, but I suspect the fact that it's in the Shoe, and we have Urban Meyer to their mumbling sloth, that it's gonna be rough sledding for them.

Mumbling sloth is offended.

Can we start the "Les Miles to Michigan" rumors now, or is that bad form? What about "Jim Harbaugh to Michigan" rumors?

Don't even start on the Harbaugh crap..........There's already a contingent of fans with the idea of "this is Harbaugh last season under contract with SF."
