    As I tweeted earlier today, the shit show of coaching around college ball works in Pete's favor especially with the salary he can offer. A smart assistant won't be in a hurry to LEAVE for any shit job that opens up. He can stay a build a resume for a GOOD coaching job.

    Pete is a stable genius (hi @insinceredawg )

    I thought Nick Holt was our DC in the Fiesta Bowl.

    The other thing this makes me wonder is with this it makes it a bit more confusing why didn't we go after Gerald Alexander instead of hiring Will Harris. Guessing its either a $ issue (I'm sure Harris will be cheaper), or there is something Pete really likes about Harris.

    Either way it will be interesting...and I'm still betting Lake becomes the next Boise State coach when somebody hires Harsin away.

    Is Lake fast strategy? Can he bring in enough fast strategy recruits? Is my post going to be nothing but questions?

    There's a lot more ways for this to go badly than to go well.

    Really hard to imagine it making us better.

    Saban wanted him as his DC nuff said.
    Komo 4?

    Also, Sark is a great OC. Being an alcoholic has nothing to do with his intelligence or talent as a game planner and play caller. He's good enough for Alabama and the Falcons. I think the opinions of the people who made the decision to hire him hold a little more weight than yours.
    Probably coming from this tweet.

    If true, I’m surprised Lake turned that down. I can’t remember an Alabama DV that didn’t get a good head coaching job.
    ND made a run at him, too

    I really don't think this is that big of a change. First off, Twatkowski is a fucking stud.

    But as long as twat is largely in charge of game planning still, I'm not worried. In a good system the coaches come up with a gameplan and by game day the plays are whittled down so much that it's relatively idiot proof. Think Babushka under Tedfurd. Twat will do alittle extra hand holding for a couple years until Lake givesback the title he's been borrowing.

    Saban shitcanned him after one game. He was never going to be the Bama OC in 17, he was a placeholder. Saban isn't completely FS. Dan Quinn is though. That speaks volumes.
    Whooooosh
