If Sonny leaves....would we want another Hawaii Coach?

Postby Insane_Pony_Posse » Thu Nov 04, 2021 5:36 pm

Todd Graham?
Currently makes $800K at Hawaii
Knows Texas
56 Years Old

Moves around a lot.
SMU would be another stepping stone like with Chad?
Hasn't he been mostly "so so" at a lot of places?

No. He had 1 great year at Rice, and has never stayed committed to any program.

If Sonny leaves I hope they bring in a high energy younger guy to keep the momentum going. If SMU is going to be a stepping stone job, so be it. Just be sure to get nice buyout clauses and keep bringing in younger up and comers.

Having said that, it would be nice to see Sonny on the Hilltop long enough for SMU to put him into their Hall of Fame

The head coach needs to be a leader of men. Not someone who succumbs to conspiracy theories.

While not the one who was mentioned above - I would take Mike Leach and his nuttiness any day of the week - maybe he doesn't love Starkville! I would also take Gary Patterson and his nuttiness.

Would an Hawaii coach want SMU?

I have really disliked that guy ever since he bailed on Tulsa and then bailed on Rice...

IMO a lot better options than rolo. I'm not against GP or even Mike Leach. I suspect if we hired GP we would have great games against tc-who.
