        On the contrary, I am still on the front end of the learning curve. I am not too proud to learn from young fellers like you.

        EDIT: Not a kind word for the emoticon I found? I demand that El Duderino add it to the list immediately. It is superb.

          I like it. Give me a couple of minutes and I will upload it to the server.

                Thanks. It's nice to know I still have a little pull around here.

                    Also, don't assume that he's going to take one of these jobs, he could very well stay at the U. I'm not saying he won't leave, but some of the posts here that are debating which of the jobs he will leave the U for are getting a bit ahead of themselves.
                    It wouldn't surprise me to see Roderick leave the U. I'm sure he must have a decent relationship with KW to stick around, but the guy has had his chain yanked back and forth more than LA Ute in a Mitt Romney thread.

                    He's headed to UW to be WR coach. Then is convinced to stay at Utah as OC. Then get's made co-OC and at some point is demoted to learn under the tutelage of Chow. Then when Chow leaves and the U needs a new OC - they don't even consider him and jump on the 25 year-old unproven graduate assistant who only has 1 year of coaching experience.

                    If he's content being a WR coach for the rest of his career, then Utah might be a great place for him. If he ever stops to think about whether or not he wants to have some upward mobility - I think he would have to consider leaving Utah. Even if it seemed like a lateral move and/or didn't include a change in pay.

                    Not saying he would go to BYU. Not saying BYU wants him. Not saying I want him at BYU even. Just saying from the outside looking it, staying at Utah doesn't seem like the best plan for him. Particularly if his wife isn't coaching there anymore (when did that happen?)

                    That being said, BYU is one of the finest institutions in the land. We are recognized for top notch students who have great integrity. Almost all your major corporations have BYU high on their list of Universitites to go find excellent people to add to their company.
                    Apparently Lark thinks a lot of Max Hall. Personally - I don't know how he would or wouldn't be as a coach...but it might be nice to have at least ONE coach on staff that takes the Utah game seriously.

                    • So - one of the local stations had Brad Rock, Sorenson, etc. all on talking about the Anae and possibly Roderick coaching thing.

                      They had some interesting things to say about Anae - essentially that perhaps one of the reasons he is feeling like it is a good move to return is that he will be given complete autonomy with the offense this time around. His call on assistant coaches. His call on which QB starts. His call on all of it.

                      Could make things interesting here.

                        See, but that's the very stuff that would make me leave if I was Roderick.

                        If I'm that guy, and you want me to sit and learn from Coach Chow for a year, I'm all for that, but what I'm not good with is being told to stay somewhere with no upward mobility by getting passed over for a kid with no experience even really coaching.

                          but it seems like they did compensate him for his loyalty. I believe he is the highest paid Utah assistant at $200k (I think BJ is only at $225k). That's not bad scratch for an assistant (at Utah) and considering he made the move to leave for Washington and then had to talk Whitt back into letting him stay.

                            Wow, I'm not sure if there's a single accurate statement in there. I'll clean it up for you later, but don't have time to correct everything right now.

                              Here is a little fact checking for you.

                              The real timeline:

                              2009, Promoted to Co-OC with Schramm. ARod will be calling plays.

                              A few days later, ARod accepts WR coach at UW

                              A few days after that, reconsiders and returns to Utah. Still Co-OC, but not calling plays.

                              Halfway through 2009, Given playcalling duties, still share OC with Schramm

                              2011, demoted to WR coach when Chow takes OC.

                              2012, applies and interviews for vacant OC, loses out position to BJ, promoted to Passing game Coordinator.

                              The original drama started with his step to UW after he was promoted to Co-OC. If he doesn't make that move, nothing else is really that dramatic.
                              "The first thing I learned upon becoming a head coach after fifteen years as an assistant was the enormous difference between making a suggestion and making a decision."

                              "They talk about the economy this year. Hey, my hairline is in recession, my waistline is in inflation. Altogether, I'm in a depression."

                              "I like to bike. I could beat Lance Armstrong, only because he couldn't pass me if he was behind me."

                                Not at all. He's getting paid great.

                                I would still leave. There's not currently an opportunity to climb the ladder at Utah, sans Brian Johnson getting a HC spot.

                                The Wisconsin opportunity seems like it has more upward mobility of the three right now. Maybe Hawaii if he really was offered the OC spot. i don't know you'd go coach at BYU if the pay is lower. Maybe the thinking is that Anae becomes the HC when Bronco leaves and he could slide in to the OC position.
