Leathernecks Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 My original hope was that we'd be able to keep him for 2 years, but becoming a head coach at a school he just coached at would be real hard to turn down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For sure. Couldn't blame him for jumping on that opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he does want to keep climbing the ladder, it is a perfect opportunity for him. Gives him a chance to be a head coach at a smaller school, but one that still has an opportunity to showcase a good coach. The Mountain West might be the best non power 5 conference. If he goes there, he's one step away from landing a big time head coaching job. If he goes and has a lot of success, the mid to upper power 5 teams could start calling. If he went somewhere like a Ball State, he'd probably have to go lower level power 5 next before a big program would take a chance on him. He seems like a really good guy, so hopefully it all works out for him. The more good coaches IU gets, the bigger Allen's coaching tree gets. If he leaves and we hire somebody good after him, IU could start being a place that up and coming assistants want to go as a stepping stone. For where we've been in the past, I would gladly take that title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parakeet Jones Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 Selfishly I hate to hear this, but good for him if it happens. The more success we have in football, the more we will deal with this kind of thing. It's a good problem to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players want to play for a coach that will get them to the next level. Assistant coaches want to work for a head coach that can do the same.

IU Scott Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 I know he wouldn't be here for a long time but I hate to lose him after one year. He has made this offense very potent and would be worried that the offense will take a down turn if he leaves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I’m Allen I’d give him some of my money cuz as long as he is at IU we are going to have one the best offenses in the BIG which then in return keeps Allen at IU for a long long time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC2345 Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 So it looks like Tedford´s annual salary at Fresno was about 1.5 million. I don´t know if that is what their new hire will get or not but I don´t think IU will be paying that to an assistant and even if they would I doubt it would keep DeBoer from taking a head coaching job of his own.

The Daily Hoosier Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 He wants to be a head coach. I don't know that any amount of OC money is going to do the trick. He has already been a wildly successful head coach and has openly stated that he wants to end up with a head coaching position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a widely known fact, surprisingly. DeBoer was head coach at his alma mater, NAIA Sioux Falls. He lost 3 games in 5 years. Two of those were an NAIA semifinal and championship game. 3 national titles, 1 runner up, 4 conference titles. That's an outstanding run at whatever level you're at.

I honestly think DeBoer would take the Fresno job at $1M even if we offered $1.25M. But, the point is, we made the offer. That will attract the right kind of eyes to the opening vs just having to scrape someone up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tedford was at $1.55M at FSU. If Kalen desires a bigger job than one he knows sooner we might keep him with a healthy bump to aroung $1M. He can surely make hay with our offense next year and build even more momentum for larger job. All that said, FSU is the devil he knows with coaches and players he is familiar with and a HC opportunity NOW. Might be hard to pass up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
