The Stitt extension question

[tnt]

A member of my family was recruited by Notre Dame. Standards were high as I recall.

Not too High, I got in (went elsewhere though)

Academic standards are very high at Stanford, and quite high at Notre Dame, but .... Meaning higher at Stanford. Stanford gives a good break to athletes, but not an incredible break. Notre Dame gives a bigger break at athletes.

I see that in former 2400 SAT standard, Stanford's 75th percentile students had 800, 780 and 780 on math, reading, writing. Notre Dame's was a total of 80 points below that.

Ivy league athletic standards are considerably higher, because the aggregate number for all recruits in football much reach a certain fairly high standard. Thus, only a few lower standard recruits can get in each year.

If he’s back it’ll be a 1 year deal

This UM alumnus and EAGS fan will be pleased when Stitt gets his contract extended. I hope he coaches at UM until he retires.

Let me get this straight.... you are a UM graduate, but are a fan of EWU, and not Montana. May I ask you why?

Because he's a friggin' traitor! :lol:

I am sure there is a "UM Grads aren't very bright" joke to be had...so any Cat fans that want to take a shot at both UM grads and EWU fans at the same time?

2017's MOST ACCURATE ASSESSMENT TO DATE:

I think the AD should either be all-out or all-in on extending Coach Stitt's contract. All-out, his contract is not renewed and a new head coach is hired. All-in, his contract is extended for the maximum allowed, 3 years. Extending for just one year just kicks the can down the road, and signals to the coach, his staff, and recruits that there is little confidence in the coach having future success. How many recruits will reconsider their commitments? For those saying 'extend for 1 year with the agreement that he bring in a new D-Coordinator', what coach with other options will agree to come aboard knowing that he will possibly be at UM just 1 year?

Lou Holtz , Arkansas football coach: "I have a lifetime contract. That means I can't be fired during the third quarter if we're ahead and moving the ball."
