That’s good. Wonder what he realized about himself that made him want to change his life? He may come back in 2-3 years and be a much better coach.

That’s the optimist view. Pessimist! You’re up!

He’s a bit rapey

That's a great hire.  Leavitt is a good defensive coach.

Should we consider hiring Greg Robinson as a defensive analyst?  Only half joking.

Isn't that usually a sign of trouble, when you bring in the veteran analyst like  when we brought in Greg Robinson?

Local radio hack, MSU alum, Mike Valenti calls for Dantonio to call it quits after this year

Quote

Mike Valenti delivers his thoughts on MSU losing to Arizona State. He talks about his displeasure with the offense, how it's unacceptable, and how it ultimately falls on Mark Dantonio.

You can listen for yourself - but really don't because Coach D isn't going anywhere until he wants to stop coaching

Hope you are right.... CDC with a ton of West Coast, Pac12 and California ties.

From CDC's Bio:

Prior to Rice, Del Conte was the senior associate athletics director for external operations and sports programs at the University of Arizona (2000-06). In that role, Del Conte had responsibility for the planning, management and oversight of the day-to-day operation for the department of intercollegiate athletics. He also functioned as the chief financial officer; managed external operations; had oversight and management of all contracts, ticket sales, broadcast rights fees, corporate sponsorships, and trademarks and licensing; and oversight of all facility construction.

Del Conte also served as an assistant athletics director for external operations at both Washington State (1998-99) and Cal Poly (1994-98).

Del Conte received a bachelor of arts degree in sociology from UC Santa Barbara, where he was a track and field student-athlete, and a master's degree in education, administration and supervision from Washington State.

Del would probably have stayed at TCU forever if it was not Texas that called

nothing is guaranteed, but there were dozens of if not more very high level AD jobs that opened up while Del was at TCU and he stayed there....and the truth is TCU is a pretty damn good job especially as long as Patterson keeps winning and doing well and either baseball or basketball does well

Del saw a chance at Texas to stay in the state, close to long time friends, be some place he was very familiar with and most importantly a place that has as much as Texas, but that has so many pivotal LONG TERM projects still to complete

no matter what you say about Deloss or his last few years he is a legendary AD and always will be.....and Del has the chance to be all that and more with what Texas has to work through now and for about the next decade

he has no chance to be close to that at UCLA or USC even.......those places are one or two steve pattersons away from remotely being in a position to make something happen on a long term basis for the entire department....they are just now getting into the shit of their programs and they do not have the university and administrative will to go at it like Texas (USC may well eventually, but not now)....USC has the fan desire, but they are seeming to be a lot more like Miami fans....looking for someone else to front up the cash and or wanting to get there and do stupid shit in exchange for their cash

to be clear they both have plenty of alumni that could stroke a check and make shit happen, but they don't seem willing to as of late and or there are strings....Del stepped into Texas at a time when he can say "drop off your fucking cash and let me do my job and take your bullshit with you when you hit the door thanks again for the cash"

That's a good point, but you do realize they took over programs with different tragectories, right.
Prior to Coach D, MSU had about 2 good years since Duffy's hay days of 1965 & 1966; had won 10 games in a season exactly once (although that is easier playing 12+ games) and had fallen to laughing stock of the B1G under Booby Williams and Johnelle Smith.

So yeah there are problems, but he'll get a chance to coach thru them.

Man, I don't know. His recruiting has started to nosedive and things are just going to get worse. I think he's honestly looking at 2-3 years more at most before the wheels completely fall off. With Maryland's rise they are looking at 5th place in the East at best each year for the foreseeable future.

If Utah destroys USC (which I expect to happen tonight) I would not be shocked to see Helton either get let go after the game or informed he is done at the end of the season.

With Swan gone and an AD search underway, it might be time to just nuke Helton and then let the new guy build it all his own way.

There's no way Helton survives the season if they don't win the conference. They'll probably just wait for the new AD hire to do all the ugly business.

I view it the other way. No way you saddle a new AD with dropping the axe on Helton, just because there may be a contingent that thinks he could have turned ti around this year if his QB didn't get hurt. Chop him now and then let the new guy make the HC hire...

 

The other question should be is if they fire Helton now, does that embolden the big money donors to start courting Urban to USC since there is no AD to help limit that level of insanity?

Utah doesn't have the offense to destroy anybody. I actually won't be surprised if USC wins. The parity on the Pac 12 just seems legit.

I agree and there is no way Texas would have landed Del after Deloss or especially right after stevie p....and it was bad enough in the ADs office, but you add in what was going on with the system bor, chancellor, and university president and it is easy to see why Texas could do nothing but fuck up in the ADs office

that is what I am saying about UCLA and USC they need to go through a couple of people that can fuck up and or try and clean up some shit before they get someone that will go in there with the ability to take charge....and USC has other issues outside the ADs office

Absolutely.  They won't can him, unless they think Harrell has HC chops, which I don't think they do.  Order of operations: hire new prez (done)- shitcan AD (done)- hire new AD (pending)- can Helton (pending)- hire new coach (TBD).

Good to see Chip at #1 on the hot seat.  He needs to feel it.

Looks like Rutgers edges out USF for the first school to fire their Head Coach with them letting go of Chris Ash today..

In more interesting news, it looks like the reason why Schiano left the Patriots this Spring was to get ready for this move and to be available once Ash inevitably got canned

Chris Ash fired as Rutgers football coach; Nunzio Campanile will take over

Today 1:36 PM.  AP.  Chris Ash is out as Rutgers coach one-third of the way through his fourth season.

Following a 1-3 start that included a 52-0 loss to Michigan on Saturday, Chris Ash was fired Sunday as Rutgers head coach in a shakeup that also includes the dismissal of offensive coordinator John McNulty, athletics director Pat Hobbs told NJ Advance Media.  "We appreciate Chris’s dedicated efforts on behalf of our football program, our department and our university,” Hobbs said in a statement.

Rutgers tight ends coach Nunzio Campanile, who turned Bergen Catholic into a national high school power as head coach of the North Jersey program, will become acting head coach for the remainder of the season.  Hobbs will oversee an immediate national search for Ash’s replacement, with former Rutgers coach Greg Schiano expected to be a top candidate. Mississippi State coach Joe Moorhead, Buffalo coach Lance Leipold, Pittsburgh coach Pat Narduzzi and Princeton coach Bob Surace are other coaches who are expected to draw interest from Rutgers officials for the job.  Campanile, who will lead the Scarlet Knights on Saturday in a Big Ten game at home against Maryland, also is expected to be a candidate, but a decision isn’t expected until the offseason.

As part of his buyout, Rutgers will owe Ash approximately $8.47 million. That total includes the remainder of his $2.3 million salary this year and the $7.5 million he’s owed through the 2022 season.  McNulty had another year left on his three-year deal that pays him $625,000 this season. McNulty, who was in his second year as Rutgers’ offensive coordinator, is owed approximately $900,00 as part of his buyout.  Rutgers officials told NJ Advance Media the terms of Ash’s and McNulty’s contracts will be paid by using department-generated funds.  Ash arrived at Rutgers four years ago hoping to resurrect a program mired in turmoil. While he navigated Rutgers through a two-year NCAA probation that ended last, Ash couldn’t turn around the Scarlet Knights’ fortunes on the field.  Ash – who had an 8-32 record overall and a 3-26 mark in the Big Ten -- was fired in a meeting with Hobbs on Sunday afternoon.  "This change is especially difficult,'' Hobbs said, "because of the steadfast commitment that Chris and his family have made to our student-athletes.''

After Rutgers finished 1-11 in Ash’s third season last fall, Hobbs stuck by his embattled coach but said he would need to show “significant improvement’’ in 2019. With eight games remaining, Rutgers has only an opening-day victory over UMass. A pair of Big Ten defeats — at Iowa and at Michigan — have come by a combined score of 82-0.   "Progress has been achieved in many areas, but, unfortunately, that progress has not been realized on the field of play,'' Hobbs said. "As such, it is in the best interest of the program to make a change.''. By promoting Campanile, Rutgers officials hope the Bergen County native can jumpstart a season that began with promise one month ago. The Scarlet Knights have lost 14 straight Big Ten games and 16 consecutive contests to Power 5 conference opponents. Campanile will also serve as offensive coordinator, NJ Advance Media has learned.

John Weiss, an offensive assistant, is expected to be promoted to tight ends coach, and Drew Lascari, an offensive quality control coach, is expected to take over as quarterbacks coach. Neither were part of the Scarlet Knights’ 10-man assistant coaching staff, but were involved in offensive game-planning.  Campanile was lured by Ash to become a college assistant in February 2018 after he turned Bergen Catholic into a perennial state-championship contender while compiling a 60-28 (.681) record from 2010-17.  Campanile, who mentored Rutgers’ running backs last season before taking charge of the tight ends, initially signed a one-year deal on Feb. 7, 2018, that paid him $215,000 but he inked a two-year extension pays him $230,000 annually thorough the 2020 season.   Campanile is scheduled to address the media in a press conference Monday at noon

Lovie Smith and Muschamp are safe, imo. Apparently they love Muschamp, and Smith is bringing in some talent, even if they do have red flags.
