I Made a Mistake

Fearless Matador
I spent all of the past recruiting cycle talking shit about the coaches inability to close on recruits. Apparently they are way smarter than all of us message board retards, and were keeping the powder dry until the portal hit. This is an absolute masterclass that will never be reproduced due to the changing of the rules.

Whoever thought up the idea of taking a small class and not overspending for high school kids deserves a raise. Blanch and Company must have spent month preparing for this, and they did not disappoint. Portal recruiting is done at a breakneck pace, and obviously they have "feelers" out on kids that are not yet in the portal.

Joey McGuire is a unicorn

D. Kohnle
Sometime earlier in the season, the dumber posters among us were making claims that McGuire deserved to be fired. In year 3 it didn't seem like he knew what he was doing, he wasn’t making any progress, and he wasn’t winning enough to keep his job. Some have eventually relinquished and have since said that his year 4 is his “make or break” year. Those comments ~felt~ unfair and off, to me, but I wanted to look at the statistics just to see if their assessments were off-base (Spoiler: They were). Joey McGuire spent 14 years as a HS HC. He won and won a lot. But HS coaching and major college football coaching, we can agree, are completely different beasts. Joey McGuire, when hired at Texas Tech, had 5 total years of college coaching exposure/experience. He made the jump to being a Power conference HC with no previous college HC experience and no coordinator experience. It would be fair to assume that he would have some bumpy years with an extremely light college coaching CV.

As a college HC, you are learning how to coach against other coaches who are just as smart as you and teams that are just as talented as you. You have to learn how to win on the road in tough environments. You are learning how to recruit, how to manage a roster, how to handle player personalities, transfer portal, NIL, etc. How to run a college practice, how to run a college nutrition program, how to handle media duties after wins and losses. And that's not to mention the off-the-field stuff like learning how to evaluate and hire coordinators, fill out your coaching and support staffs, and make solid connections with donors, alumni, and your community. It would be fair to assume that when Texas Tech made the hire of McGuire, it would reasonably take Joey 3-5 years to get all the other things under control before tangible results would be seen on the field. Joey had little true exposure to this new college realm before being hired. In his first 3 seasons, should there be expectations of slow adjustment? Fair. Maybe some losing seasons as Joey figured things out? Fair. Best season in 15 years? Surely not anytime soon. Winning conference record 3 straight seasons for the first time since 1995-1997? Don’t get ahead of yourself.

Joey McGuire’s first 3 seasons have come with adjustments and growing pains, but they have also come with lots and lots of unexpected winning, considering the circumstances. Joey McGuire’s first 3 season winning percentage of .605 puts him in the upper-level of college coaches at similar points in their careers. Factor in Joey’s resume before being hired, and Joey McGuire is one of the winningest coaches over the past 25 years. The numbers show, McGuire has reached the rarest of air regarding laying his program’s foundation for a significant future of winning.

Should McGuire be fired for not winning enough? This notion is stupid. Should this next year be a “make-or-break” year for McGuire? Again, absolutely dumb. Should Tech fans – who just experienced the first 8-win regular season in 15 years – hold their coach/school to a higher standard of excellence (“Surely we can win more than 8 games in year 3!”)? That’s fair, but compared to the entire landscape of college football, Joey McGuire is almost 1 of 1… do you really want to attempt to go find a better guy, when Joey’s first 3 seasons show that he is already a winner unlike any other coach out there? I don’t.

Now let's get to the actual numbers.

The list goes Coach name, Held lower-level (FCS or G5) HC position before becoming Power conference HC, number of years as a coordinator before becoming Power conference HC, number of total years of college coaching experience (HC/coordinator, position coach) before becoming Power conference HC, win percentage in first 3 years of coaching, total number of games, and what school they were at where they got their Power conference start.

In true @Brandon Bohannon style, here’s a long list of random numbers and names.

Among 110 Power conference coaches (current P5 HCs + notable coaches) over the past 25 years, McGuire ranks T-32nd in win percentage. Among current Power conference coaches, McGuire ranks T-22nd.

Joey McGuire ranks #7 (out of 21) among coaches over the past 25 years with 0 college-level coordinator experience, regardless of if they held a HC position at a non-power conference beforehand. Of the 6 coaches ahead of McGuire on the list, 5 of the coaches spent no less than 4 years as HCs at either G5 or FCS schools. 2 of the 4 coaches in front of McGuire either played for (Curt Cignetti) or won (Chris Klieman - 4 times) FCS National Championships. Brian Kelly had 3, 10+ win seasons at Cincinnati and Urban Meyer secured 2, 10+ win seasons at Utah. Kelly and Meyer each had 12-0 seasons as well. 5 out of the 6 coaches not only got their feet wet in leading entire programs at the college level, but they also learned how to win and win big at their respective stops before taking over more high-profile power conference jobs. 9 of the coaches BEHIND McGuire also spent time learning how to lead college programs at the non-Power conference level but did not enjoy the same initial success as McGuire and others.

Among coaches with similar college experience as that of McGuire before taking over their first college Power program (less than 7 total years of college coaching exposure), McGuire ranks T-5th (out of 11) among Power conference coaches over the last 25 years in win percentage, ahead of coaches like Jim Harbaugh, Art Briles, Rich Rodriguez, Deion Sanders, Kliff Kingsbury, Matt Campbell, and Chad Morris. All 4 coaches ahead of McGuire had college coordinator experience, Hugh Freeze has only one more win than McGuire in 1 more game played and one coach (Malzahn) had 5 less wins in Year 3 than in Year 1; whereas McGuire has maintained a winning consistency (8,7, 8) in his 3 years. Malzahn and Hugh Freeze also had .500 or worse conference records in 5 out of 6 seasons and McGuire just notched his 3rd winning conference season in his first 3 years (All while playing one more conference game each year to boot).

Official root for Big 12: 2024 Bowl Edition

UncleTTbone
Since there is a thread for those that always want their conference foes to lose, which I can normally understand, I decided to start the opposite thread.

I think now, more than ever, it is time for us to circle the wagons and hope that we all show out. Best case scenario, TCU and Baylor have sinkholes open up underneath their bowl games and their universities and their stadiums as well, so I don’t actually have to pay attention to them.

In reality, I want the Big12 to crush this bowl season, and force us to hear “bowl games don’t matter, SEC and B10 kids were sitting out” while being able to scoreboard them going into next season. ASU winning one playoff game would be huge.

OT: OTC covid testing before a Dr. appointment?

martaylo
Is this standard? If so, what's the purpose with Covid being basically non existent and with minimal harm now? My wife and I both see different Dr's at the same practice nd the whole practice requires an OTC covid test before coming in for anything with covid type symptoms.

I understood at the tail end of the pandemic. Tests were readily available, covid was still fairly prevalant, etc.

2 weekends ago our 4 year old woke up sick on Sunday. Ended up having the flu and was sick for 8 days. 16 year old got sick last Thursday but it was a 3 day deal and he was fine. Wife and I both woke up sick early Saturday morning but I'm basically fine now and she's worse. We got some OTC flu/covid combo tests Sunday and both tested negative for everything. Since she seems to be getting worse I got her an appointment and they asked if she had taken a covid test, I explained that she took one Sunday for covid and flu and was negative. They lady said she would need to take another one before her appointment this afternoon. WTF is that about? So my wife, while very ill, is supposed to go to the store and buy an OTC test to administer to herself a second time in 3 days before she goes to the Dr.? Are our doctors retarded? Am I missing something?

Finally rid themselves of Arcis. I don't know anything about this new group but from the looks of this they're going to upgrade things. Hope it materializes.
