Thread title is misleading, lol. Huff on an arbitrary list vs. Huff heading to Louisville.
Can somebody clarify what our stance is today? Are we in the post-Notre Dame mood where we're fearing losing Huff, or are we in the post-Bowling Green/Troy losses where we want to see anybody take him?
I'm in the.....who cares? If he leaves, onto the next coach category. He did an excellent job to end the year, but he has done nothing more than what doc accomplished.
By firing Doc(as we should have) we said that 9-10 win runner-up seasons are not good enough. The bar for success is winning the conference.
You can't fire someone that has had your teal ranked, in the championship game, won Conference CoY, and then accept someone else achieving less.
Credit to Huff for doing the one thing Doc couldn't do which is keep the team from imploding. Still since he's been at the helm we've had too many embarrassing losses and squandered opportunites.
I don't know what P5 in their right mind would hire him away at this point. Maybe if we blow UCONN's doors off. Time will tell.
Doc tanked a ton of games as well. Pruett had a few stinkers too. It happens. Doc won an average of just over 7 games a year in 11 years.
Before it's posted, the answer is NO. Huff will not be going to Purdue.
There's stinkers and then there's blowing 17 point leads at home with 7 minutes to go. Still that's not the point. One can be happy that we aren't missing a bowl and still be unsatisfied with the overall performance. Until Huff surpasses what Doc did then it cannot be viewed as a success. Status quo should not be acceptable. It got the last dude fired.
Pruett had so few stinkers most can name every one and it was 20 years ago. If I recall, he lost less than 5 games in 9 years to teams with a losing record. Huff has already lost more home games in 2 years than Pruett did in nine.
Point is, Pruett shouldn’t be in this conversation.

Just stating it happens to everyone. Huff is not great BUT he has a better record than Doc after year two, playing a tougher schedule and beat ND. Doc would have puckered at ND and been blown out like most to the times we played P5 or high G5 while he was here.
If Huff’s wife really doesn’t like Huntington, she’ll love the wind swept, barren plains of northern Indiana.
If they want Huff, they can have him. The Purdue job isn't glamorous and will be tough to be super successful there. Fritz would be the front runner from that list. jmo. Maybe Mullen.Huff on a list to replace Brohm at Purdue.

Well, pretty sure this isn't click bait...
This article says Huff has Marshall trending upward. Yes, MU won 8 and lost 4, but that was with a stellar defense to go along with an offense that was a stinking mess. Imagine what could have been had we had an offense that could score points.5 Head Coaching Candidates for Louisville - Mike Farrell Sports

Definitely need much improvement offensively, especially in the HERD pass attack. In those familiar words out of the past, "we've got to get that fixed"!!
Neither one is that great. Still we're paying more money for basically the same results. Also Doc took over a team 1 month before NSD that had barely backed into a bowl game and Huff took over a division champion with all-conference type talent on both sides of the ball.
I hope Huff continues to improve, but we'll see how well this team performs when both sides of the ball is comprised of only Huff players. Oh and special teams has been pretty bad since he took over.
We can nit pick over every team and every coach that's been here. It is what it is.
We'll see what happens in the bowl.
Frankly, I don't care who our coach is, or if he stays or goes. As long as we win and have a solid, clean program
If we did, it would end any complaining about our poor passing attack.
Navy made a huge mistake. Winning at a service academy is one of the hardest things there is. You cannot really recruit. The players have to go to one of the hardest colleges in the world. No NIL. Six or more years in the military afterwards. Players have to be 4.0 high school Eagle Scout types.
Dude was 109-83, took Navy to 11 bowl games, had a winning record vs Army and Air Force, and beat Notre Dame once.
Totally agree... Being a consistent winner at a service academy this day and age is extremely difficult. I would think he will get another chance at a non-academy if he wants one.
I'm in the "When the same success rate since Pruett is basically the same across the board, thats pretty much an indicator of what our program is, and we should stop over expecting things from our coaching staffs" category
