Could you imagine this possibility?

Post by mcgregor »

Three men: Andy Reid, Ty Detmer, and Ben Cahoon. All three have expressed desire, and in some cases STRONG desire to come coach at BYU. Think about all three on the offensive staff. Amazing.

Reid (OL)
Detmer (QB)
Cahoon (WR)

Especially if you can imagine an 'L' as a 'C'

Alright Mcgregor I will bite... Any chance that ANY of these three end up here? I know there is another thread about changes... I would love to see all three but I doubt that is probable..

Could Andy Reid be brought to BYU in any other position than Head Coach? Doesn't seem like he would take a demotion, you know.

That is the dream team though.

Even coming in as a head coach would be a demotion for Andy Reid. I think it comes down to if he wants to take on an less intense position in order to create a better environment for his troubled children.

Andy Reid as OL coach? We'd never give up another sack.
So if Detmer is QB coach, what do you do with Domon? Not saying that Detmer wouldn't be better, but BYU wouldn't just kick Domon to the curb. Bronco never would.

Two predictions for Brandon Doman.
1) He will be our offensive coordinator by the 2012 season.
2) He will be our head coach by the 2020 season.


BYU PER W/L Since 1972: 432-76 (.850)

Has Andy Reid really expressed interest in coaching at BYU? I'd never heard that. I know a lof of fans have said we should go after him, but I"ve never heard interest from his side.
As for bringing on Detmer...how do we know he'd be a good coach/OC? No doubt he was a fantastic player, but that doesn't necessarily translate into being a good coach. Sure, any QB would benefit from having him as a mentor, much like Hornacek as a shooting specialist with the Jazz. But I wonder if he has the personality to be a very effective coach beyond working with the QBs. (I'm not saying he wouldn't...I'm just asking. Does anyone know?)
Obviously Reid would be a completely proven commodity. No reason to doubt or question what he could bring to the table. :)

The reason Detmer translates into an effective coach is that he was ultimately a QB coach in the NFL for 14 years. Most of the teams he was on didn't really have him there to be the man, but rather to be the mentor to their younger QBs.

I completely agree.

In the near future Anae will get enticed to a bigger paycheck and Doman will be promoted to OC. Then we can bring in Detmer as QB coach and co-offensive coordinator.
