thespywhozaggedme Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 If they win out until they lose to us hopefully, they will have the best turnaround of any Division I program from last year to this year. It would be ironic if Tedford has the best turnaround in the nation because of a graduate transfer quarterback from Oregon State and then at the end of the season Oregon State turns around and hires Tedford to be their head coach.

TheTedfordTrain Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Lol. Every time a MWC coach has a bit of success, the rival fans start secretly hoping for this. I'm usually afraid of coaches leaving, but not this time. Tedford has very strong Fresno ties. He's constantly called Fresno "home". He's bought a home, settled in, and is fully planning on ending his career in Fresno. I'm not saying there's a zero percent chance he leaves, but if he does, it'd be for a much better job than garbage ass Oregon State. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FresnoFacts Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 It is never say never, but I think it strongly looks like this will be Tedford's last gig. Both of Tedford's adult sons have moved to Fresno in the last year. They are both in their 20s and basically spent the majority of their lives in the Bay Area. That sounds like a family putting down roots for the future in this area. Tedford has already coached in the P5, CFL and a short NFL stint. Maybe he still has something to prove to himself but I sense he has more of a been there done that view of those other levels. Jim Sweeney coached Tedford as a player at Fresno State and then hired him as first a QB coach and later promoted him to OC. Sweeney coached at Montana State, Washington State and Fresno State, then tried the NFL for 2 years but returned to HC in Fresno to coach for the last 16 years of his career. Sweeney was a strong influence on Tedford. How Sweeney spoke of those career moves would be part of any Tedford view. Tedford also spent a year under Pat Hill which also might influence the views of career movement. At this point any Tedford move would probably not be about money or ego. Instead it would probably be only about the appeal of that team's challenges. But at the same time Tedford has seen that Fresno State can be a stable career position for Head Coaches, something that few HCs get to enjoy.

Coaches look out for their best interests, as they should. That said, I hope Tedford stays at FS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So let’s say UCLA loses to southern cal and mora gets canned, , I assume they call Kelly first, but let’s say chip says no. You know they’d at least interview Tedford if State wins the MW this year.

All places are more fun to live in if you make millions, but this is especially true of LA and So Cal in general. There are only two things I can't stand in this world: people who are intolerant of other people's cultures and the Dutch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a chance. I must say, I'm really enjoying your quick audibles every week: Tedford is hired "He's tired. He's old. Has no energy like our coach. Bad hire. Retreadford!!" We slaughter IW... "You beat a crappy FCS team. Still can't beat an FBS team" We beat Nevada "You still can't beat a team on the road. You guys still suck" We beat SJSU on the road... "You beat the worst FBS team. SJSU played better the second half. You guys still suck" We demolish UNM and SDSU... "Your coach is so good that he's going to quickly leave you for a better school and city" HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I FCKING LOVE IT!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
