Bowling. Do we do it? (spoiler: we do!) - blazr - 11-26-2022 07:05 PM
(and where…)
Assume ADMI has a hire ready next week (as he told Kurre) and it’s not BV, we need to assure the seniors get a trip to Boca or Bahamas. Can that happen?

Bahamas vs. Miami, OH.

Happy for our players and BV (assuming he goes if he isn't retained, not sure how that works). Should also be a winnable game.

The Clark Return Era starts with Bahamas Bowl vs Ohio and (possibly) ends with the Bahamas Bowl vs Miami, OH.

Not even a question...the Blazers will be bowling somewhere. Regardless of whether Brett McMurphy is correct or not.

...a somewhat apropos destination if BV is gone, as it's where we had our first bowl in the Clark Era... ...given the record, it's the best result, and somewhat of a 'bell curve closing' to this Era... hopefully we win this Bahamas Bowl

VERY happy for the team and the interim staff, glad they all get a good vacation and a bowl against a solid team.

Proud of these Blazers! They deserve a nice warm place to have some fun.
Go Blazers!
RE: Bowling. Do we do it? - DuelingDragon - 11-26-2022 07:33 PM
Looking forward to seeing the Blazers crush it in the Bahamas

Awesome. Let’s close out with a W.

So what are the precedents regarding “interim coach->bowl bid->new hire announced->bowl game (Dec 16th)”

I don't really know of specific examples, but I'd think that a new coach is announced, and BV coaches the bowl game as the interim head coach

This is how it's going to be done. New coach will be there and will get some air time.

I would think: New head coach announced in the next few days, no later than Dec. 1. He begins hiring new staff, if he hasn't taken care of much of that already, and hits the ground running on recruiting, while the current staff finishes out their season (which is nice to end in only a couple of weeks) and begins their own job searches.

But doesn’t the transfer portal screw with that map? I think it opens prior to the 16th.

I would think most of the team enters the portal...but doesn't mean they won't stay, just that the new coach has to recruit them

Will they enter the portal before the bowl game?

That was the root of my question. Will we have enough players to field a team?
