No. CTA is coaching for his job and I’m not sure they win another game with Bell. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely interesting to not go interim and then do a national search at the end of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC2345 Posted October 1, 2023 Report Share Posted October 1, 2023 Either they know Carey is the guy for the job based on what he’s done behind the scenes or Tom Allen knows he won’t have time himself to make another hire this offseason. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDB Posted October 1, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2023 Carey’s offenses were really good at Northern Illinois. Surprised at no interim tag but I’m excited to see what he can do. Curious to see who starts at QB against Michigan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victobmyboy Posted October 1, 2023 Report Share Posted October 1, 2023 (edited) Allen will be let go after the season. No way the University keeps him. The hat is out to help with the buyout. Pay next year’s salary(on the hook if we keep him) and pay the 12.5 million anyway. To many musical chairs.

I’d be surprised if they let him go tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better have our feelers out and be ready to overwhelm someone with cash ala Colorado and coach Prime. Invest or be non-competitive in the new B1G. Hiring a mid major coach and hoping they catch lightning in a bottle won't cut it. Have someone from Kelley School of business consult on proper investment parameters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too much money coming from the media deal to hide. Dolson and the BOD will look stupid by acting as if there is no money. The fans are screaming. I’m pretty conservative when it comes to these things but this is beyond ridiculous. If you fire a guy like this it looks really bad on you. This means you had no faith in him from the beginning. TA needs to go. His schtick is over. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
