It's hard to believe one of the best positions coach in the nation isn't being pursued by programs to be their D coordinator.
 
Man I hope this guy sticks around for a while, he is too valuable just in his perspective and the way he goes about his business.

UM

Its not hard to believe as it happens in college football all of the time. I had this argument about Randy Shannon.

Good coaches like good jobs and they don't take jobs just for a title. Trust me when I say that a good coach would rather be DB coach at Alabama than head coach at Tulane.

Of course Kool turned down DC jobs because none of those DC jobs were at a competitive power 5 school. No one wants to work at bottom feeders with extra stress, work, and criticism just for a title.

This logic seems to escape our fans when they want to shid on our alumni for not being a HC or DC.

no need to hope. Where the **** is he going to go?

He left Missouri after 10+ years and came to Miami. Trust and believe he is having the best time of his life. He likes continuity and a stable environment.
 
I think the guy LOVES his job, and loves job security. I don't think he's one that likes to move around a lot just for the sake of a change in title. Look at his last situation. He stayed with the same coach for how many years? Now he's with Mark Richt who has a history of being loyal to his assistant coaches. Coach Kool might just retire down here. If he really does love coaching D-linemen, and doesn't care to be a DC, where else would he want to be? He's in the Garden of Eden here.

Yea but he's been a top tier position coach for what, 15 years? For putting as many beasts in the NFL I find it extremely strange that he only got a call from Illinois to be a D-cord.
 
Looking forward to every DL commit we get with Kuligowski here....

If this guy blesses them, there's a really good chance they're going to produce....

If Diaz does well and gets a HC offer in 2-3 years Kool might be named DC.............

Could be, unless he simply wants to keep doing what he's doing. You'd think he'd have more offers already, honestly. Even NFL D-line coach would be a likelyhood. Maybe he just loves being a college D-line coach.

No need to find it strange just know that Illinois isnt the only team to come calling; but not many coaches are going to publicly state they dissed a bunch of schools.

Also, coaching is as much about networking as it is ability. A lot of coaches like to coach with their boys and people they get along with so they have a comfortable workplace.

Some position coaches coach in the same place forever, and outside of clinics, they rarely meet other coaches; which greatly limits their connections and ability to create a staff if they get a DC job or better.

There is so much that goes into coaching, man.

People think its just easy to get a job as a coach just because you put a few players in the league. Its a lot of good coaches with no job or working as position coaches.

Nah, he could have gone anywhere he wanted when he left Missouri. He came here to be a part of what Richt is building. I don't see him jumping to the first higher paying job that comes his way. He didn't do that at Missouri, and I doubt he does it now.
