varjet Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 As we recall, after Woody fired Idzik and Rex, the best choices were Bowles and Quinn. The Jets ended up with Bowles and Quinn went to the Super Bowl. Bowles may not be the next Parcells, but he needed a better organization. He needed better talent and needed a grown up to make him hire a better staff. His natural inclination was to fire threats and protect his friends. That was his ultimate undoing.

He was the head coach at Texas Tech for six years. In that time he had a winning record twice and never had a winning record in the Big XII... And he had Patrick Mahomes for two of those years! I mean, college is different from the pros and if paired with a good experienced DC maybe it could work. But it's kind of scary that he has so little success as a HC. Most of these college guys at least dominate at the college level -- this guy just got fired from his beloved alma mater because he wasn't getting the job done. I wouldn't completely nix it because he's obviously highly respected as an offensive guru but it's as massive, massive gamble. That's like saying Auburn/Texas A&M /LSU never won the SEC with Alabama in it . The big 12 had OKL, TCU and Baylor winning every year , records of teams in power conferences need to be looked at with a little more scrutiny. Simply saying he never won is lazy at best.

No, it's not like saying that at all. If I had said "Texas Tech never won the Big XII Championship" that would be like saying it, kind of. But what I said was "he never had a winning record in the Big XII" meaning in his most successful seasons he went 4-5 against real teams. In four of his six seasons he only won a third of the games in his conference. I'm not burying him for being 0-6 against Oklahoma. I'm saying being 1-5 against Kansas State is terrible. In fact the reality that he went 35-40 overall in six years needs to be looked at under the lens that Texas Tech plays two cupcake games per year. And heck, if you count Kansas, the conference record is inflated too. His resume as a head coach is bad, frankly. If you believe in him it's because 1) you're completely sold on him as an offensive genius and 2) you believe his failures as a HC are exclusively tied to college (i.e. recruiting.)

Your basing that off of what Kansas State is now, when Kingsbury's Tech teams played them KSU was a much better team. Kingsbury not winning against Okl is not the indictment that Harbaugh not winning against OSU is. When your an inferior school in a Power 5 conference, looking at records is a mistake. Also Texas is a hard state to recruit in with Texas, A&M and Okla and even Baylor poaching a lot of the talent. I believe in him because he is a progressive mind when it comes to offense , something the Jets have been averse to for like 2 decades now as they've always hired DC's with a penchant for the leather helmet football era .

I mean, believe what you want to believe. In my opinion, the only schools in the Big XII to whom Texas Tech is at a significant disadvantage are Oklahoma and Texas, who are blue bloods. Heck, Baylor, TCU, Kansas, Kansas State, Iowa State -- most of these schools are historically beneath Texas Tech. Look at what Mike Leach did at Texas Tech if you want to see what a good coach can accomplish there. For a good coach at Texas Tech, 4-5 in the Big XII is a down year. You're hoping for 7-2 type seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically told Mac roll the dice don’t play it safe I agree with Jamal that Macc would be making a huge mistake by playing it safe and picking the best available whatever. It’s how you get stuck with absolute trash on the payroll while people who draft after your pick end up with good players. I mean coaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
