I did not know he left Montana State (after an 11-4 season) to be Co-DC with Kwat at Texas.
Does anyone know the story there?

Successful FCS head coaching experience combined with DC experience at a DC experience at a blue blood is how you get hired to be a head coach at a power 5 school.
Most relevant programs would not just hire an unheard of FCS coach to be their head coach. Shit, this site would declare a jihad on UW Athletics if after Jimmy we hired a random FCS coach who went 11-4 the past year. And on the flip side, the biggest question mark when hiring coordinators to be head coaches is “can they handle being CEO”, and Choate has that answered already. He has all his bases covered now -
Pay raise? Also lines him up to be a DC hire at a major program in 2-3 years if Texas is good (LOL).HFNY said:I did not know he left Montana State (after an 11-4 season) to be Co-DC with Kwat at Texas.

He'll end up as an FBS coach soon. Was really impressed with his work as DL coach here before he left to MSU.

Kwat went to Texas and is STILL a co dc? Wtf?

I remember suggesting we should go after Choate and being told he wouldn’t leave for another assistance coach position.

K calls the plays. And gets paid the most money.
He’s the coordinator. -
(Except Jon Donovan, apparently)

I remember saying it was dumb to demote Kwat to keep Jimmy.
Was not a popular opinion at the time. But Petersen wanted it to happen so it did
Kwat stayed anyway and now is co DC again
Some men just know their limitations
Brent Venebles is a DC for life at Clemson if he wants and short of 9 million dollars a year to be head coach somewhere its a smart move
