Well, I’ll have to say I’m underwhelmed HOWEVER, this reminds me of the Drinkwitz hire. I felt the same way. I’ll get on board.
Drink was not really similar. We didn't have warm and fuzzies because he really lacked a resume. But people in the know knew he was up and coming.

Will need someone to eloquently lay out what put Loggains over.

UNCC seems to be getting close to the coach at Ohio who just won the MAC. Guy reloaded via the portal multiple times, including replacing nearly every starter from last year. Game 1 next year may be a bad dream if he’s able to replicate it in Concord.

Might be a good hire. Not an expected name and everyone’s upset.

I will be happy to eat crow and I hope I am wrong and we curb stomp everyone. This just doesn’t raise the bar.

I’m not sure there are many similarities other than it’s an OC from a state university in the Carolinas. This doesn’t seem like a safe pick, and it doesn’t seem like a high ceiling pick.Wil hope for the best.

Maybe Jay Cutler can be our OC

The only success this guy had was one season with the Bears

The best interview. Had done his homework. Told us the ugly truth. Has a plan. We aren’t here to compete. We are here to dominate. Chip on his shoulder with something to prove. No one lit the fire until he interviewed yesterday. He lit it.

I'll remember that. I hope this time next year I'm roasting some crow over that flame he lit in their eyes because a used car salesman makes a great sales pitch too.

Like Club Lit?

We either just hired a guy that can turn the program back into a competitor or a guy that interviews well. Time will tell.

I’ll be in the stands in 2025 and the MAF check will hopefully clear another year. Good luck coach.

Aside from words in an interview, what do his RESULTS say?! What is there to be excited about?

How's it a knee jerk reaction? It's reported he's being hired....he hasn't had much success...and we get to talk about the hire. He's got a lot to prove. For folks to be skeptical of the hire is not earth shattering.

Update:

UNC WR COACH Lonnie Galloway was interviewed.
South Carolina OC Dowell Loggains was interviewed.

Carry on.
I guess of the two, I’d take Loggains? That’s one positive.

Because he’s already being written off and the sky is falling.
