Rumor: The 'Stache is Back...in Waco

[PK]

So, was the awesome 16 *** class he landed that to say underperformed would be
grossly conservative, was that coincidence, awful talent evaluation, or something else.

Again, it takes several of those types of classes. And Bennett was a hard-[deleted] who lost his players.

"lost his players"...it was probably really because he wouldn't let them wear black.

lots of man coverages with a heavy load of blitzing. works well if you have corners who can man up... if not this is what you can expect

Yes, expect a lot of "All Out" blitzing.

This is not great news for us. I agree he is not head coach material - mostly since his staff was weak - but he will be really good in that slot for Baylor. And we do compete with Baylor for recruits going forward (not so much up to this point). Very non-Baptisty coaching style - although they will overlook that if there is even a modicum of success - hypocracy resides in Waco full time.

A+.

ALL OUT!!!!

[StallionsModelT]

The "All Out" game was maybe the low point in a catalogue of low points for Bennett.

[Cardinal Puff]

Would rather see Phil get a HC position in CUSA. One less team for us to worry about.

[Dutch]

he's forgotten more football than you will ever know.

[Mitch McConnell]

The announcement has been made. It's official.

[Stallion]

his recruitment skills have always been grossly exaggerated-I think he's a decent Defensive Coordinator though

They probably won't have the "All Out" perfected for the '11 season. We'll have a distinct advantage having run that under Phil should he try it on us in '12.

PAMR -- Will Oscar be visiting Waco next?

It will be interesting to follow his recruiting. It was documented here that while at SMU he would not even approach higher level recruits, conceding that they would not be interested in SMU (or perhaps any AQ school) in his opinion. Will he now be willing to go after bigger fish or will he personally concede that Waco is not Austin or Norman and pass on other top level recruits. I would imagine he will not pass on any now so it will be interesting to see if he has the ability to get them to Waco.

Phil Bennett's Mustache will be coaching today at 11:00 on ESPN in the BBVA Compass Bowl

[RE Tycoon]

What kind of schemes should we expect? Talking to some of my smu friends they said many of his struggles at SMU had to do with the admin not admitting recruits with borderline grades which lowered the overall talent level he had to work with.

I hope your fans know a lot about football, because PB tends to forget a lot about it...

[mrydel]

His defensive skills are so good....(How good are they?)....

They are so good not even his own team could score from one yard out against Rice in 8 tries.
