So Manny Stocker is gonna light it up just because we get Dykes in here? I don't think so. We're gonna suck for a couple of years regardless of what offensive scheme is brought in until we have some new recruits. 11/28/2012 3:03:04 PM |

i was in car for 5 min earlier listening to David Glenn...he said Dykes "interviewed" this morning and that he's on short list but not the only candidate.
Glenn is usually the most accurately informed person along w/ Giglio on these things. 11/28/2012 3:04:27 PM |

The word on the Rivals boards is that Dykes interviewed yesterday and Chad Morris interviewed today. Maybe true, maybe not...but I thought I'd post that here. 11/28/2012 3:09:32 PM |

Feelings about Grantham as a candidate? I love a great defense, and we def. need a great recruiter ... but then we would still be searching for a quality guy to run the offense as well, which in my mind would be the more difficult hire. 11/28/2012 3:37:12 PM |

I'll be upset if we only interview two coaches and it is just those two.
Dykes is the obvious choice between the two 11/28/2012 7:26:01 PM |

Both of those guys are offensive masterminds, but I'd much rather have Dykes since he's actually led a college team than Morris, who's only been a head coach on the high-school level.
With either hire, though, it really comes down to who they put on their defensive staff. I'm not worried about the offense. 11/28/2012 8:05:54 PM |

^Doesn't the head coach hire his own staff? Gotta have a head coach before we can speculate on coordinators, I think.

Unless we spend some money on a legit d-coordinator I'm not going to be happy with hiring Dykes. 11/29/2012 12:22:48 AM |

^ I don't think it's so much a matter of us being willing to pay for a good DC, but rather if Dykes is going to be able to draw a good DC (and if so, whether he will).
I think Dykes has some similar upside to Godfried in that we can give a lower initial salary with some really specific incentives that give us an easy out... so I think that's good. 11/29/2012 12:43:56 AM |

from that WRAL article:
Quote : | "It has been widely speculated that NC State’s budget for a new head coach was between $2-3 million annually. Currently, the highest paid coach in the ACC is Jimbo Fisher at Florida State who earns $2.75 million yearly." |
holy shit @ 2-3 mil... with that amount, we should be able to pull more tail than Dykes/Morris...
not sure if the 2-3 mil is strictly for the HC, or if that includes HC+asst, or if it includes TOB's remaining payout. it says "new coach", so I doubt the latter, but that's crazy that we can afford 2-3 mil PLUS 1.2M for the remainder of TOB buyout.11/29/2012 7:08:46 AM |
markgoal All American 15996 Posts user info edit post |
$1.2 million is over 4 years, only $300k per year.
Also I'm sure the contract will be incentive based as that is Yow's MO. 11/29/2012 7:16:19 AM |
LudaChris All American 7946 Posts user info edit post |
I think she interviewed Morris just to see what it would take to get him away from Clemson. His asking price is probably more than Dykes, so I figured Yow would take the cheaper option so she could spend more on coordinators. I'd actually be surprised if she let him bring his assistants from La Tech, esp with the 118th ranked D. 11/29/2012 7:46:00 AM |
Elwood All American 4084 Posts user info edit post |
In her press conference she said it the coach's job to pick assistants. She will not demand anything.
But one and hope that if it is Dykes that he is not too attached to his D coach. 11/29/2012 8:01:57 AM |

Seriously if we come anywhere close to what FSU is paying Fisher and we get Dykes or Morris that is going to be a pretty epic fail. 11/29/2012 8:37:50 AM |
LudaChris All American 7946 Posts user info edit post |
^^Yow can say what she wants. She basically told TOB he needed to change DC's and be more aggressive in recruiting and he told her "no" and she told him to take a hike. Yow encouraged Gott to invest in solid coordinators. I bet she'll have some names to suggest or at least suggest he picks new coordinators with more familiarity to the area and recruiting. 11/29/2012 8:57:41 AM |
MrLuvaLuva85 All American 4265 Posts user info edit post |
I have no reasoning behind this claim, but my gut still says that Kirby Smart is Yow's target. 11/29/2012 9:01:46 AM |
robster All American 3545 Posts user info edit post |
After past debacles, it would make sense to line up targets you KNOW you can get first, and get some agreement on terms, and then throw a longshot or two out there towards your best case scenario targets at the end to see if you have any bites. That way, if they say no, you don't have the media swarming on those rumors for a few days, but can call a presser that afternoon to announce the previously agreed upon candidate. 11/29/2012 9:16:02 AM |

I wish she would try and contact Smart. I had him #1 on my wish-list, Morris was #3, and I didn't have Dykes in my top 5. Would still be slightly disappointed if it were him, esp if we made him a top 3 paid coach in the ACC. 11/29/2012 9:23:44 AM |
