Tim Banks

[VFLEST94]

If the defense plays the way it has for the rest of the season and people start calling Tim Banks for a head coaching job. Who would be your top 5 replacements for him as DC?

Or would you prefer to throw the bag at him and make him one of the top highest paid DC’s in the country in an attempt to retain him?

Let me save you a lot of time. It would be William Inge.

None. You hand Tim Banks a blank check with a fat long term deal and incentives and promote him to assistant head coach. Pay him more money and provide more job security than any mid-level program would even think to offer. He’s earned it and you’ve already experienced what a set back it was on the other side of the ball when you lost Golesh.

Learn from your mistakes and pay the man whatever it takes.

Inge

He was hired with that in mind.

Rodney Garner

Why was Inge listed as Co-DC at Washington?

Rodney Garner

Pretty well circulated that Garner doesn’t and has never wanted to be a DC.

 

[Wahoooo]

I believe Tim Banks has done a great job. Even when we did not have as much talent, we had one of the nation’s best tackle for loss percentage.

Coaching is ultra important, also equally important is the talent we have been able to stockpile in order to have such a dominating defense.

I think he will be heavily sought after at the end of season. Not sure we will pay him what it takes to stay. I hope so.

1. We can't realistically pay that sort of money to a coordinator, let alone multiple coordinators.

2. Money might not even matter. If Banks has aspirations of being a HC and the right comes calling, I doubt even making him the highest paid coordinator in college football would matter much.

You shake his hand and wish him well. He deserves the right to be a HC and it is nothing but helpful for Heupel to continue getting HC jobs for his coordinators. Top-shelf candidates will want to come here. And it actually helps to have new blood in the system so it doesn’t get stale.

Win-win for everyone.
