Please people stop using this story to compare with current UH coaching situations. It was used for Applewhite too.
Completely different era. Different money for both coaches and school.
That was year 4 at UH. In year 1, he improved the team’s record and went bowling, something much more difficult to do then. After that, he went 2-8, 2-6-1, and started the next season 1-4 when that incident happened. Will you be happy and calling for patience if CDH goes 5-18-1 over the next 2 seasons?
After that, Yeoman implemented the Veer midseason. If CDH has a revolutionary offense to unleash, I recommend he start now.
None of this is to say whether CDH will succeed or not. Its just a plea to stop using a comparison that is not valid
Just asking to stop using a poor comparison. But I’ll go to the next step for your Yeoman comparison… after the effigy season, UH had winning seasons the next 3 years, but they were ineligible for bowl games those years due to recruiting violations. Maybe we should start paying recruits to help CDH, because Yeoman…
I was on board with the hire and will support him as long as it doesn’t seem hopeless. I just hate the “Yeoman was hated and struggled and went to the HOF. So current struggling caoch will succeed too.”
Newsflash! Most coaches that struggle end up failing. Very few coaches in all of football will get to Yeoman level, even good and successful ones. So don’t apply his story to any other coach
A good highly motivated young coach would turn this around. Starting to feel like he doesn’t want to put the effort in. Yes,he gets angry and is fiery. But what matter does it make when you are sub .500
Yeoman installed an offense that very few teams could stop. He also put some tough defenses on the field. This offensive scheme, well, it needs an infusion of creativity and solid play-calling to keep up with today’s game of football.
