UNC thread

literally celebratory drinking right now, what a time to be not dead

 

it's ok I genuinely thought we'd roll them too

look at Fortin slinging it

 

Please don’t hire Mike Houston

 

he's one of the early favorites on our home board, not like that means anything though

 

It's exactly what I want us to do........which means we won't

 

Sonny Dykes might be available soon

 

Gonna go to JMU homecoming instead. I'll try and recruit a new corch for us while I'm there.

 

woaaa...unique.

 

Legitimately surprised by this turn of events, good for jp though

 

holy crap, some guy on ic started a thread with a bunch of tweets from former players, most of them aren't really newsworthy, but the fact that you've got Smith and Fieulleteau chiming in too is pretty telling

Andre Smith: Whole lotta exposing going on on this fine Saturday.

Matt Merletti: I’m ready for UNC to treat our football program with the same expectations they do every other sport. This is unacceptable. (Retweeted by Da’Norris Searcy)

Zach Brown: Larry gotta go! (Reply to Merletti)

Zach Brown: Smh unc we need new coaches n players ASAP.. not watching another game this season... when b-ball start?.. can’t stop nothing... take 11 sry ass out

Dwight Hollier: (in reply to Z Brown) Don’t tap out yet bro. But it’s really really ugly.

Jesse Holley: Larry Fedora Might Not Make It Outta The Football Season As Head Coach Of UNC

Jordan Fieulleteau: ...coaches gotta go

 

So who are the early favorites other than JMU's coach?

 

I've read elsewhere that Houston is a huge UNC fan. Doubt he'd turn it down. No idea on Satterfield.

 

Satterfield is from Hillsborough so he's probably a UNC fan. I think both are incredible upgrades over Fedora, who would be yall's first choice?

 

Satterfield

 

I haven't followed any coach close enough to really have a favorite yet, Kiffin and Fleck are two other names that a bunch of people on IC have clamored for

 

I would fucking love Kiffin, but only if he goes back to being Tennessee Kiffin. I'm not sure who would hate him more our rivals or the UNC Holy Rollers

 

Did y’all boys have class canceled yet

 

I just think he'd be a walking clusterfuck and the best we could hope for would be that he at least leaves more talent on the roster than Fedora will. Naturally though, if it ever happened I'd 100% be able to talk myself into him and would thoroughly enjoy his shots taken at our rivals.

 

Got to stay away from kiffin. The talent he recruits is always of the suspect variety and then you end up with like 65 scholarship players because they're all gonna get kicked out

 

Tennessee Kiffin will take you to 7-6, then leave you in the middle of the night

 

what he said .

 

There seem to be two main factions on our home board atm, one wanting the name recognition of a P5 guy, whether it's a head coach or coordinator, and the other wanting one of the local proven winners, just at a smaller level. So far I think I lean more towards option two, with Satterfield looking like the best of both worlds, but it's really hard to argue with what Houston's done at literally every stop. The way I see it, we're gonna recruit at a top 30 level regardless, and it'd be nice to see someone finally get the most out of the talent on hand, which hopefully leads to better recruiting.

Of the two P5 names we've seen the most, give me Fleck over Kiffin all day. I'm just not a fan of hiring retreads who failed at places with the advantages that a USC provides. Yes I realize he was dealing with restrictions at the time, but his teams also routinely came out looking underprepared, and I've seen enough of that look with Larry. That said, he was still pretty young, he'll obviously make a splash recruiting, and his FAU run has been impressive so far, so I wouldn't completely dismiss him if we went that route.

Now let's all hope we actually fire Larry in the first place.

 

Satterfeild or Houston would be excellent hires

 

hai guys. back ITT because we're gonna fire shitface. yay

 

I doubt he's looking per se, it's just one of the main names due to rumored interest following last year, which some think could've just been a ploy to push for facility upgrades at UM. Honestly literally everybody on the "list" right now is just fan speculation.

 

As someone who follows JMU very closely, Houston would be a homerun for you guys. He runs an excellent program and the culture he’s built in such a short time is pretty unreal. He’ll get everything out of the players and build a staff that can recruit and, more importantly, coach at a high level. He’s going to be a successful coach at the P5 level it’s just a matter of when/where. I’m enjoying the ride while we have him.

 

poor guy

 

Interesting, admittedly I haven't followed his time there too closely

 

Solid jinx work to lock down that Green ov, see what you can do about a commitment now

 

Of all the dumb crap I've ever said.....

 

Snot is snot very strong
