I’m gonna wait til Poggi has hired OC and DC and we see what the portal and JUCO ranks bring us.

Polls are point in time gathering of data. Maybe you should wait until the end of next season to vote
I agree, but was just curious what some people thought, as we stand right now. Sorry, a couple of you were offended by my early curiosity.
Schedule is much tougher next year, inside of conference and out. That should let him attract better talent here though too.

Half of the AAC are also reloading at HC. So hopefully that bodes well for us at least not getting stomped.

Seems like a pretty decent hire. Some P5 experience as TE/Co-OC and ties to Charlotte.

In 2021, Miller served as Maryland’s Tight Ends Coach and Passing Game Coordinator. Miller helped the Terps set numerous school records during the year, including the single-season program marks for total yards (5,740), passing yards (3,960), completions (339) and completion percentage (69.3%). Maryland quarterback Taulia Tagovailoa also set seven single-season Maryland records in 2021, including program best marks for passing yards (3,860), completions (328), completion percentage (69.2) and passing touchdowns (26 – ties school record).
Under Miller’s tutelage, multiple Maryland tight ends had break-out season in 2021. Chigoziem Okonkwo hauled in 52 receptions for 447 yards and five touchdowns during his senior campaign. He ranked first in the Big Ten in receptions in conference games (41) and second in receiving touchdowns (five). He hauled in 12 receptions against Penn State, marking the second most catches in a game by any Big Ten player in 2021. Okonkwo’s 112 receiving yards at Michigan State were the second most by any tight end in a Big Ten game in 2021. Miller also guided then-sophomore Corey Dyches to a strong season in which he made 19 grabs for 208 yards and caught four touchdowns.
Seems like the kind of system Thompson would have liked to play for.

“It will not surprise me that he will be the next up-and-coming offensive coordinator around college football,” Estep said. He added that eventually “somebody’s going to get a real dedicated young head coach.”
I like this OC hire. This is very solid.

I like the Miller hire. It is not often that a P5 Coordinator leaves to a non-P5 school for a similar position.

Poggi should just take Hill’s job and over fund all of our sports. Hill can sit with Judy at the pregame events.
