Latest on Diaz from BJ

Reported on social media that Manny Diaz was one of 5 candidates interviewed about being Temple HC,
but Manny was the ONLY ONE asked to stay overnight.

Too much smoke going on with this Temple thing.

We need to pay the man and make him coach in waiting. Temple can either elevate his career or if he fails he will never be a HC again.

He knows he's losing Willis, Jackson, and Johnson, as well as maybe a junior or two. He should go if offered the job.

The same was said last year about key players gone.

If he goes, this will not be the reason, IMO.

Not saying it will be the reason. Just saying, he will not be as hot of a name next year because I guarantee the D takes a step back. The second the O implodes, like 5 minutes into the season, the D will pack it up. They are all fed up with Richt's O. Diaz has a chance to leave now before things get very, very ugly. He'd be wise to do so.

Yes. But don't let facts get in your way. We lost games due to losing the turnover battle (in most losses), poor field position due to a horrible punting game and a HC that chose to follow his gut which has always led him astray in the past. So Let's see who we lost to and examine that point.

LSU- We don't play this year but Florida is somewhat similar so we might lose.

Virginia- We have them at home and I don't believe we will turn the ball over 3 times in our own territory to allow them to beat us again and we have them at home. Plus they lose 3/4 secondary. They scored 16 points and we barely lost.

Boston College- We don't play them and Louisville (replacement on schedule) is not good.

Duke- We lost the turnover battle and they don't have Jones or Rahming this year.

GT- New system new coach. They will not be running the **** option anymore and will need time to flip the roster. We have them at home also.

Here's the thing. I'm ****ed too and I don't think that Richt is a good coach or someone who will lead us to the playoffs or much less win it all. But, put your hurt feelings aside and really look at this pathetic schedule which is even worse than this year. The only games in question are Florida and Florida State and that's only because of Richt and his 30 year old offense.

I say 10 and 2, winning the coastal and losing to Clemson in the ACC game. Richt will get an extension and **** everyone off...LOL.

Next season will definitely be a horror show of epic proportions. It will start with a twenty point+ beatdown by the Turds and that will essentially be The End for Richt (who never beats UF anyway), but the admins will keep him on so the GD Hoos can embarrass us again. If we play anyone with a pulse, it will be ugly.

No point to watching this chitshow anymore.

If they can somehow hire an OC and support staff capable of developing QB's prior to signing day, that may help persuade an actual D1 QB to join the program. Then, there's at least a shot at topping the coastal.

That'd be worth a watch, no?

and you have the same or more information than Diaz has to give career advice for him?
 
Norvell gets $2.6 in the AAC.
The top half of coaches average about 1.75-2 mil.
Does he go?
Money-wise, yes.
Career-wise, no..

I read that Mike Elko was also brought back and is being strongly considered also.

Well, we know he's interviewing for a HC job now. Would you say his chances are better or worse if the D isn't as good next year? So yeah, double, triple pay raise NOW, or wait for what may never come? Doesn't take Einstein to see it's a good career move for him. UM is a sinking ship, at least currently. Temple isn't great, but it is a launch pad to better HC jobs.

When the losing team completely out-talents the winning team, but can’t score 2 TDS, u don’t need to look at TO differential.

U look st coaching.

Check out how our D played vs VT and Pitt.

If the D didn't pack it up for the those games, after a season offensive futility,
they're not going to pack it up 5 minutes into the season next year.

Too much pride.

LOL......

LSU - If Richt loses to UF, he should be fired right there and then. Mullen inherited a mess at UF and he'll be in his 2nd year at the program.

UVA - So Virginia losing 3/4 of their secondary is huge? Correct me if I'm wrong, but, aren't we losing 3/4 of our secondary? UVA had a QB that beat us with a dislocated pinky. We also barely beat them last year at Hard Rock. They're far from a guarantee.

GT - Probably will win.

Duke - Beat us at home. You act like Duke's the only team that's losing something.
