Chad Bowden to USC

FWIW, ISD is saying that it doesn't blame Blanchard, ND, or TT for his ultimate decision. No idea what that means, but it does truly sound like it was a unique family situation that will keep him in Lubbock.

It’s what I was saying before, he had some family stuff come up that made him change his mind after agreeing to terms with ND.

 

[GrangerIrish24]

I mean he might be onto something, this would make an excellent food thread

there can be only one

Did we get played by Blanchard? Texas Tech GM gets new contract after Notre Dame interest He got a nice bump.

That happens regardless of the reason he stayed there.

I honestly wonder how much that is taken into account for some coaches, staff, and recruits. It's tough living in SB .... yeah, you're not far from New Buffalo or Chicago, but with a job demanding that kind of commitment and hours, you've really got to be present year around.

That’s an interesting juxtaposition

Yeah, but if you have a family its fine. If you're 25 and single its less amazing.

At least he didn’t say Elkhart. Am I right @Blazers46

You are correct he didn’t say it… but man Elkhart gets a raw deal. RV museum, train museum… and umm you know… all that other stuff.

Well we have a tow truck museum.

I would have thought coming off a national championship appearance we would of had a lot more good news and momentum.

Positives:
1. We didn't lose anyone significant to the transfer portal
2. We brought in some difference makers in the transfer portal

Negatives:
1. We lose 2 of our top position coaches. Golden and Delan
2. We settle at Defensive Coordinator after not landing our top two choice on a guy who no team in the college football playoff would even consider.
3. We lose our GM and strike out on our top choice
4. We have a big Junior day and only come out with 1 commitment

I mean I did graduate college with a 3.7 GPA just when I'm typing fast I don't tend to check or overlook what I type.

I think it may benefit you to type slower in more ways than one

What did Blanchard do?

The St Joe river is pretty nice

 

[StPaul_Irish]

What did Blanchard do?

When Blanchard?

 

[Calabrese's People]

Zach Grant right now:

 

[Calabrese's People]

I just want to go on the record and say that we should hire Zach Grant + Sean Kenney.

What would you all think about Beau Davidson from Memphis and Derek Miller from BGSU being Co GMs?

Let me do a deep Google dive on them... "No results found"

 

[Dale]

sarcasm?

 

[Irish du Nord]

Good... I would not feel comfortable giving total control to a non coach over player personnel.

Especially considering how good we’ve been at scouting and acquiring talent

 

[Bane]

What would you all think about Beau Davidson from Memphis and Derek Miller from BGSU being Co GMs?

I think you have to start with Nick Saban and make him say no. After that you go to Ty Chan and make him say no.

 

[StPaul_Irish]

What you think I do Magic or something?

 

[PolishDomer]

In my 48 years on this planet, I never thought I would ever see people wringing their hands over an admin person on the football team

 

[rtrn2glory]

Supposedly this meteor is going to hit in 2032. We going to have a GM by then?

 

[Veritate Duce Progredi]

Do our new GM targets have a history of prioritzing DTs? Asking for a 'friend'?
