If Anae gets the UNLV job

Post by Mars »


...Why wouldn't Bronco hire Kragthorpe, who was recently fired from Louisville, to replace him? We all saw what he could do with an offense when he was at Tulsa, up close and personal (nevermind how he mismanaged the defense). And he has strong ties to the state of Utah.

I like the idea. Not sure if Kragthorpe would go for it, but in principle this could be a win win. I assume Kragthorpe would see it as a short-term move, but it could be a great move to help Heaps and Co. get off to a quick start.

What if we bump Doman to OC and offer Detmer the qb coach spot? I think they could really be a dynamic duo.

And more than likely a very effective recruiting duo as well.

What's Coach Doman's track record as an OC at other schools?

I just thought that being a qb, a qb coach, and working with Anae probably would have prepared him well for the job. Perhaps if you left him as the qb coach and brought in Detmer as an OC?

I have a 0-0 record as a head lacrosse coach, but I feel that being a DC and having played the game has prepared me to take on the roll when I get the chance. I hope that people give others a chance to prove themselves and don't count them out simply because they haven't served in that exact capacity before.

Same as Anae's before he came on board.

True, and good point. Sometimes it's a hit, but other times it's a miss. See: Rose, men's basketball. See: Sanford, UNLV football.

I actually wonder if Sanford might be a better OC than Anae. Or Crowton. I don't think so for either of them. Doman, maybe. Kragthorpe, strong maybe. Any other "pie in the sky" ideas to toss out here while I'm dreaming? Houston's OC perhaps? And I'll say it again, I don't even strongly dislike Anae, he has brought us a long way and a lot of wins...

From what I have heard Robert is the next HC for BYU once Bronco leaves, I don't see him leaving for UNLV.

Wait, once Bronco leaves? Is this what you alluded to earlier?
