Potential Head Coaches

[Bloodeagle]

I do trust that AD Collins and Pres McMahan are fully aware of the position of all athletics at EWU, and from what I’ve seen are trying to put a better foundation in place. Whether that means coaching changes or increased revenue into athletics remains unseen, but neither of them are dummies nor seem complacent with where the university is at.

IMO, coaching change desires or not, what EWU needs most is butts in seats … if Roos is packed and we go 3-8, there is the money needed to make a change. If Roos is packed and we go 8-3 and make the playoffs, then we as fans also get what we want.

So let’s show up and show out.

For what it's worth I do know players who played under Best over the years and have an ear dealing with this current situation. Haven't heard of massive dislike of Best and yes has he he said said some naughty things to players and assistant coaches I suppose that is true.. Our problem is the ease of portaling and lack of NIL money to stay competitive within the BSC and to lock in players who have greener pastures. His weakness is not playing the portal game early on and perhaps even now but that could be a money thing. Collins is sharp and he has a plan. May or may not include Best in a year or two (maybe get the ok to buyout his last year). Gonna be hard to compete without NIL money as even a $1,000 could make a difference in securing players.

We can also give kids more reasons to stay outside of money. Baldwin fostered a family like culture of winning. Kupp decided to stay his senior year instead of declaring early for the NFL cause he wanted to win a championship with his team/friends (and to probably pad his stats). Idk the culture these days but it doesn't seem that great, and not even being the discussion for playoffs is not good. They do need more money too. I heard they get like only $3500 a quarter while they treat football like a full time job.
