Jack Pardee??

The best argument AGAINST Coach Pardee was from a caller to 610. He said a young kid has got to wonder that hey if I committ to UH how long will the coach be here? He's 71 or whatever....I hate to agree because I am no spring chicken myself but to me...for that job....he is too old to come in new.

Nothing against his smarts..his abilities..but I think they should go with a younger coach. JMO.

Of course on the other hand college coaches change jobs like underwear these days. But to me they'd be better served going with a younger coach.
 
Actually I disagree. They were a nationally known team when he was here and a Top 10 type program. I'd think it would actually get more national run than local because of this. Especially if he has coordinators that are former players. Hawaii has a Pardee guy in June Jones and they are undefeated and being talked about. That isn't a bad thing. They are playing a BCS game. Look at Boise St. last year.
Doesn't Hawaii have a QB getting a bit of publicity here on the mainland?

If age really effect most recruits there are a lot of top 25 schools that would not get recruits. I think most high school kids want a chance show their stuff regardless of position. The coach reputation for placing players in NFL or getting college honors and does the offense or defense play to the players skills. Teaching skills by the staff would also be highly evaluated.

Just to stoke Bill up a little. The Head coach for the Houston Cougars is down to Notre Dame offensive coordinator Michael Haywood and Jack Pardee.

Now according to the Chronicle the Coogs are speaking to Kevin Sumlin again and Haywood has been eliminated.

University of Houston athletic director Dave Maggard said Wednesday that he has resumed discussions with Oklahoma co-offensive coordinator Kevin Sumlin in his efforts to find a new head football coach.

Maggard insisted that the job is still open, but a person close to the situation said that after a lengthy interview, Notre Dame offensive coordinator Michael Haywood has been eliminated as a candidate to replace Art Briles, who resigned Nov. 28 to take the job at Baylor.
