I think one reason is that they miss Brady Hoke. There is no doubt losing Brady hurt.
But the real reason is that the cupboard is bare. I don't know how that happened after watching what Brady has done here.
I think Brady won at Ball State with a real good group of seniors that he and staff coached up.....saw the hand writing on the wall of how bad they were going to be at Ball State the following three years.....and bailed to San Diego State.
I am very glad Brady came here to San Diego State, but I can't think of any reason he would make that move from Ball State (especially being his hometown and where he played ball) for any other reason.

That will happen when you replace a very good coach with a proven failure as a head coach.

MONEY Moving from the MAC to the MWC wouldn't be reason? Did you really think it was a lateral move? That's absurd. *** edit when was the last time a MAC team was in a BCS bowl game?***Ball St was going to cut money from an already bare bones operation. Their Univ President was a non-athletic, academic fan. The other reason, in my opinion, is that Hoke and most of his coaches are not there anymore. Hello, newsflash, our coaches are good.

You seem to mistake what my comments means. MONEY means that Ball St. was not willing to upgrade facilities, nor pay his staff right. The MWC conference has a chance of going to the BCS, or at least getting a BCS bowl now and again. All that takes and means MONEY. I hope that is more clear.

It was my mistake in that I was refering to Saztec within your reply. My bad.

They don't have the players......Where are they? Steve is right. To a great extent a coach is only as good as his players. If Hoke had left anything at all, the team would have won more than two or three games over two years. Not in EVERY case.

Moving from the MAC to the MWC was pretty much a lateral move for a head coach (especially leaving your own school after a 12-1 season). The money on the move is pretty much lateral too.

Very good OC; miserable head coach. Moving from a good coach to bad coach is not going to make 10 wins difference. The cupboard was bare. A good example is Chuck Long to Brady Hoke. Hoke is much better than Chuck Long, yet we went from 2 wins to 4 wins on the change.

Jesus Christ Steve, are your eyes brown from all of the bull$#!+ you spew? The MAC to the MWC is a HUGE jump up. Who was the last time the MAC had a Top 15 team besides Ball State? How many BCS games have MAC teams been to? He DOUBLED his pay by coming here not to mention more than doubling the pay of his assistants. Then there's the facilities advantages, I could go on but obviously you don't care to retain anything that contradicts the horseshit you choose to spew. Christ Steve, give it an effing rest already.

Hawaii went from zero wins to 9 wins and a bowl win, in one year when they hired June Jones. It was the same team, same starters. Also, installing your system takes longer than losing a system. Coaches do make a big difference.

Why does this bother you so much? Are you ok? -The move from the MAC to MWC was not a huge move. Neither are BCS conf's. -The last time the MAC had a Top 15 team? Last year, Ball State. (No, you can't throw that one out. It happened) -Brady doubled his salary? I don't have the figures handy, but I don't think so. Not positive. And don't forget to throw in the cost of living in San Diego as to compared with Ball State. -He left a 12-1 team for a 2-10 team. That isn't even lateral.....That is - Lateral. Geez, don't get so personal K5. What is wrong with you?

I think a better judge for this argument would be how did Greg McCakin do taking over for June Jones after his 12-1 and he bailed. McCakin won 7. He probably had players. Ball State had no players the year after their 12-1.
