of course hes gone, he Never was the guy. He just happened to be here when John L bolted.
Hopefully phlu is inserted as HC asap. There is no reset button here
With the continual talk of "pressing the reset button again" or 4 coaches in x years, this is an overlooked point. Weber didn't ask for the satin situation or go through a typical search for Sears to be HC, he did happen to be here and I'm sure seemed like a convenient way to hopefully help stop the bleeding. Bonus if Sears pans out to be an effective HC. Like many others have stated, Sears seems like a genuinely good guy, however, he really hasn't demonstrated that he's much of a talent as a HC. A few weeks ago I happened to catch a Sears interview followed by a Gary Andersen interview. Sears sounded nothing like a football coach typically does, whereas, Andersen sounded the part to a tee. Talking the talk is one thing and walking the walk is another, but watching almost two years of Sears' program with virtually little improvement combined with an uninspiring interview sure doesn't make me believe he's was the right guy.
Is Pflu? Or, could it be the same situation over again? I really don't know. What is really known about Pflu's ability? He hasn't impressed as the OC and isn't too far behind Sears in having his own recruits. His resume sparkles with UM headlining it, but come on, the Montana program and players may as well be on the next level in comparison to Weber. I think you could stick nearly anyone in at Montana (even Sears :lol: I am just kidding!) and they would do just fine. It would be an advantage to have someone with BSC coaching experience and a year already under their belt in Weber's program but what's to say it's not similar to bringing Sears in, part II?
