POLL Which coaching search was a bigger shit show?

[HerbRedman]

Great post. Damage is much greater from a money, roster, stability and PR perspective now-a-days.

It's hurting their image for sure.

However just to be a that guy....it can get remedied by whoever they hire. And can be remedied quickly.

Callahan was our 54th choice but the guy was a hell of a HC and immediately started showing he was an elite recruiter. The thing that stopped NU from being elite was Kevin Cosgrove....it was not the 41 day HC search.

As much as I want PSU to experience 20 yrs of purgatory, they'll hire someone who's good. And he'll have full opportunity to do what Callahan did here (with the Cosgrove thing).

So all of this feels like permanent damage to PSU right now but the reality is, it's not. Say they hire Brohm. What Brohm does in 4 yrs will be dependent on him, it will not be affected by this PR hit etc. And this is coming from a guy who'd love to see PSU go 2-10 for next 50 yrs.
