At first I didn't line this but the more I think about it, we coukd do worse. He is a discipline coach, a winner, great offensive mind. As long as we don't get Rowell back I woukd be ok with it. There is no way possible that he coukd do worse than what I've seen this season and the last 3 also.

In the armed services we called this "chatter" Or "noise". Meant to distract you.
Hartwell is smart, a high school coach doesn't make sense, especially one as morally corrupt as Propst.

I would be very disappointed to see us go that route.

I think he would do better than some of the names I hear. I don't like the idea of no HC experience at all.

This would be beyond a disappointment.....why, why would they even consider hiring a high school coach. If the supposed 80 applicants story is true there has to be someone in there that is better than this guy. Let him go cut his teeth at some backwater NAIA school first

There are some folks down there in the Bayou that would prefer to punch him in the face that shake his hand. He had some issues the short time he was down there. That I know.

Insane, Indeed! Surely this is just smoke. If there's "chatter" about Rush getting the job, I would assume he started it! Hope we go for someone with class.

Head coach? NO! Offensive Coordinator? Where do I vote. This guy can COACH OFFENSES, and Lord knows we could use one of them. He wants to coach in college, cut your teeth as a D1 OC. I have expressed this several times. Troy has to be willing to forgive his past. He would have to come clean and DEMONSTRATE staying clean, in the eyes of the university and entire Troy Family.

Would he want to be Troys OC is the question...Hes winning 6A state championships in Georgia. and Making 95k as a High School coach.... correct me if im wrong but I believe KE is making 116k as Troys OC right now. We might pay a little more than that but even if we paid him 150k would he do it?

I don't have a problem with him as a coach and think that he's a great offensive guy. However... if you were a player's mother, would you let this man take your son to his program? Do you want this man and his past as your son's role model? Seriously. That's a question that needs to be asked since recruiting is such a big issue right now. Most of us can overlook his particular past because of his skill. Can the recruit's mother (or father, but the old saying is if you can win mom you can win the recruit)? Can he recruit away from USA, UAB, GA Southern, and the rest of our conference brethren?

With all the reported discipline issues this Troy team has, I think it's important to hire someone without others, especially the media, constantly pointing out this man's past. Troy doesn't need more toxicity, but a fresh start.

Hiring a high school head coach as our next leader makes as much since as us keyboard coaches taking over. Propst would prob be a good OC at best, would rather see him start at a position coach but to go straight to HC.... Get real

Who says we can't approach him this year? He will always be my top pick.

Who says we can't approach him this year? He will always be my top pick. We could...But honestly lets be real. Its a lateral move. We might have more tradition and winning seasons but pay wise UAB probably could match us. Not to mention hes paid 600k at UAB and will probably get a raise if they get to 6 wins which is likely. But yes I would LOVE to get him.
