You make a very good point, but I'm not so sure if we'll be able to see it come true here any time soon, unfortunately.

Here's the Washington announcement:
Welcome Home Aaron Keen as WashU Football Coach
Quote:Washington University in St. Louis Director of Athletics Anthony J. Azama announced the hiring of 1994 WashU graduate and former assistant coach Aaron Keen as head football coach.

RE: 2019-20 College Football Coaching Carousel
Looks probable that Baylor's next Head Coach will be one of these three: current interim and associate head coach Joey McGuire, Arkansas State head coach Blake Anderson and LSU defensive coordinator Dave Aranda. of course, you never know.

RE: 2019-20 College Football Coaching Carousel
WSU Prez: Rolovich to be football coach at Washington State
Quote:The president of Washington State University tweeted Tuesday that Hawaii’s Nick Rolovich will take over as the Cougars' head football coach, replacing Mike Leach.
School President Kirk Schulz tweeted that WSU had picked "a dynamic new head coach @Nick Rolovich'' to succeed Leach, who left for Mississippi State.
The school scheduled a Thursday event to introduce Rolovich in Pullman, Washington.
Rolovich, meanwhile, has changed his Twitter profile to identify himself as the head football coach at Washington State.
Hawaii went 10-5 overall, losing to Boise State in the MWC title game but rebounding to beat BYU in the Hawaii Bowl.
Rolovich has overseen a significant turnaround with the Warriors. When he took over at Hawaii in 2016, he inherited a program that had won 11 total games in its first four seasons in the Mountain West. He’s won at least seven games in three of his four seasons. The 10 wins this season were the most for the Warriors since 2010, when they won 10 games and were co-champs of the WAC with Nevada and Boise State.
Guess he didn't need a year Zero...or a year 1, 2 or 3. Nice job, Nick.

...and over at UH:
The next UH head football coach faces challenges even Rolo couldn’t fix
Quote:The UH Foundation CEO says the foundation is eager to partner with the athletic department to find creative ways to support the football program.
"We'd like to tap into the community's passion for football to help UH achieve success," he said.
Good idea. Maybe it could work here, too?

Sounds like they went with the most expensive and high-profile of those three options.

I don't know whether he was a good coach or a bad coach, but our TE's didn't exactly make a huge impact last season. Of course, if they were great blocking TE's, I probably would not have noticed.

RE: 2019-20 College Football Coaching Carousel
Here's the Baylor announcement:
Dave Aranda Named Baylor Football Head Coach
Baylor’s hire of Dave Aranda sends statement about the school, has major implications for Bears and LSU
Quote:To get to the next level, Baylor hired a new head football coach who was part of a national championship this week.
LSU defensive coordinator Dave Aranda will replace Matt Rhule at Baylor, the school confirmed Thursday.
Aranda, 43 and the nation’s highest paid assistant coach at $2.5 million, has been at LSU since 2016. Although LSU’s defense struggled at times during the regular season, the unit was strong late in the season and in the playoffs, containing Oklahoma’s Jalen Hurts and Clemson’s Trevor Lawrence.
In December, Aranda’s name had been mentioned as a possible candidate at UNLV. Baylor is a much, much better job, in a power conference and coming off an 11-3 season that included a berth in the Sugar Bowl (where they lost to Georgia.)
By landing the defensive coordinator of a national champion, Rhoades has shown that Baylor is a desired destination, just three seasons after it was viewed as a train wreck.
Rhule showed there was life after Art Briles. Now Baylor has contended in the Big 12 under two different coaches and schemes in the past decade, while opening a new stadium.
Jimbo Fisher tried to hire Aranda at Texas A&M and later gave him a rave review to the Baton Rouge Advocate.
“Look at the results he’s got,” Fisher said Wednesday. “Dave’s a tremendous coach. Just look at the film. Those guys are tremendously sound, and he’s very creative. He understands coverages, how to take guys out of the game, how to bracket guys. Their blitz packages. Their run packages. (He’s) a very knowledgeable guy who’s had a tremendous amount of success, and the kids relate to him and they do a great job. Dave’s one of the outstanding coordinators in this country. No doubt.”
Would love for Rice to transform into a destination from the train wreck we have had for 13 seasons.

Marcus Mariota endorses Craig Stutzmann for University of Hawaii head football coach
Quote:In a communication with athletic director David Matlin, Tennessee Titans’ quarterback Marcus Mariota has endorsed Craig Stutzmann for the vacant University of Hawaii football coaching job, according to a person briefed on the exchange.
Stutzmann, who was UH’s passing game coordinator and quarterbacks coach this past season, was a graduate assistant at UH when Mariota was in high school at Saint Louis School.

Anderson to step down as Oberlin Yeomen head coach
Quote:Oberlin athletic director Natalie Winkelfoos announced head football coach Jay Anderson has stepped down from his position to become the defensive coordinator and assistant head coach at Notre Dame (Ohio), a Division II school.
Anderson led the Yeomen to a 12-48 record in six seasons at the helm. During his tenure, he mentored two of the top three quarterbacks in program history in Zach Taylor (6,471 yards) and Lucas Poggiali (5,508 yards). They respectively rank second and third all-time in career passing yards and have three of the program's top four single-game passing totals. Taylor tied for the most touchdown passes in school history (48) while setting the Oberlin record for total offense with 7,557 yards.
n 2018, the Yeomen offense totaled a school-record 3,862 yards and Ryan Gleeson became the first wide receiver in school history to surpass 1,000 yards receiving in a season as he finished with 1,084 yards and a school-record 13 touchdowns.
Anderson, who produced 24 All-NCAC selections as head coach, also mentored three of the program's top five tacklers in school history. Von Wooding is second all-time with 324 stops while Bennett Jackson '18 is third with 294 tackles. Justin Bute ranks fifth in Yeomen history with 269 tackles.
A national search for Oberlin's next football coach will begin immediately.

So in six years he had two of the top three passing QBs in school history and went 12-48? Hmmm.
