Fresno St. Bulldogs New Coach...

[Scott VanHoosier]

You just proved my point...I said crazy stats considering all those factors.  They had a YOUNG QB with an offensive line that was patch work since the first couple drives of the season.  They put up over 400 yds per game and more then enough points per game to win a majority of their games but didn't have the defense or heck the special teams to back their play.  You think it would be wise for a new coach who is working on a short time period to overhaul the only thing that seemed to work for them last year?!  Carr will only get more consistant, o-line can't be dealt a worst set of cards, and rouse is poised for another monster season.  If he comes in and can't go 8-4 with identical offensive production, they hired the wrong guy.

ESPN Radio National News feed announced this morning that DeRuyter was hired by Fresno State...  Sounds like it is official to me.

On to the next chapter!!  Let's go Bulldogs!!!   :u:

If Grady stays as "O" coordinator, nothing will change on the "O" side of the ball. Pray he doesn't stay, his play calling was dismal at best. New blood at "O" we need that.

How much of that would you say was attributed Pat Hill? Though he's not calling plays directly I'm sure he had an influences as to the overall direction and style of offense, no?

Everyone there will get their interview...heck Hill make take one with him??? 

No doubt DeRuyter will bring someone or two with him??  DeRuyter has his "Cronies" make no mistake about it.  Just look at his buddy Boeh

I am still trying to figure out why people like Lorenzo Neal are saying they don't like how Fresno State went through the hiring process. I don't get why people are upset they didn't hire someone familiar with the program. Sometimes you need an outsider to come in & take the reigns. I think that he'll do fine. People just need to not expect a BCS bowl in his first few years.
