Furd appears to be losing its OC Bloomgren who will be the next Rice HC. Wonder if Somny threw his hat in the ring for that gig.

Negative. Rice is too comprehensive an experience.
Coach Bloomgren is a great fit for the Owls.

Maybe he did. Maybe he didn't. Because we are Cal and we rationalize everything I doubt our fan base has an appropriate appreciation for how poorly the rest of the college football world likely views Dykes as a HC option. I suspect it is going to be a very long time or a very unique set of circumstances before Dykes lands a HC job again.

Unfortunate. Furd is a massive underachiever on offense... signature play is a 5-star QB throwing it up for grabs on fade routes to 5-star TEs protected by a Oline with 4/5ths of it's starters destined for the NFL... and, oh yeah, they had a Heisman caliber RB.

tequilaf4rkapp - I totally agree - Dykes will not get a hc job at a power5 conference for at least a decade. FIne OC, but that is as far as it goes.

Jedd Fisch would be a great fit for this offense. Which also sucks because he'd probably make them even more competent than they currently are.

Maybe Sonny D will have a shot at whatever school Sandy Barbour goes to next. :-)

Any school would be nuts to want either of them!

And what, pray tell, would be an "appropriate appreciation" in your opinion? Hijacking every thread about a coaching change to remind the universe how much you despise a former coach, and former AD?

Methinks you do not fully understand the definition of the word "appreciation." Or "appropriate."

From Football Scoop:

"Stanford: Quarterbacks coach / recruiting coordinator Tavita Pritchard is expected to be promoted to offensive coordinator, per a tweet from Bruce Feldman. Pritchard has been with the program since 2010, where he rose from graduate assistant to defensive assistant, to running backs coach, and eventually got promoted to quarterbacks and wide receivers coach heading into the 2013 season. He takes over for Mike Bloomgren, who took the head coaching job at Rice."

So... He's their coach Chachere?

Or their Austin Clark. . .

I think we need some more clarification on how long is a very long time
