What I'm trying to figure out is what I'm sure the USF marketing crew in charge of the rollout is trying to figure out: What's the selling point?

Is he a name? No. Does he have accolades or trophies? No. Experience as an HC? No. Local ties, or an established recruiter? No. Looks like Ryan Gosling? No. Innovative playcaller? Eh? Riding the coattails of our "rival" school's previous HC? You gonna sell us on that? He's cheap? Probably, and relatively, but that's not something you'll say.

So I'm just trying to figure out what he brings to the table (even purely speculatory) that made him someone over whoever was 8th on Kelly's list.

Fair points from a marketing perspective. But what does he bring to the table? The offense that everyone in college football is trying to get their hands on….the Briles/Heupel mix. Sell that in year 2

He literally runs the number 1 offense in the country. 

I think that's enough internet for me tonight.

Well fingers crossed for this guy.  If he can do something with the defense he will probably rapidly improve our wins.

They should be all over Jason Sumrall unless Brian Hartline absolutely crushes an interview 

I think hardline tweeted he was staying at OSU.

I thought I saw a Hartline Tweet a bit back that he had no interest in leaving right now ....... change of heart?

We'll be off to the races if we can rise above 131 on defense.

Cincy can twist in the wind.  Who cares about those guys.  Peace out!

How did that work when we tried to import the Dabo system? Or when Willie Taggart came in with his Harbaugh style before he junked it in year 3 for the spread?

To be clear, of course I'm giving Coach Golesh a chance. He deserves a chance. But what already was going to be a mighty uphill battle from a program rebuilding perspective is now going to have an even steeper uphill battle in getting fans back onboard.

Does Dabo have a system beyond recruiting stud QBs and throwing jump balls to first round WRs?
