Should FAU's next coach be introduced on Oct 15th?

Should FAU's next coach be introduced on Oct 15th?

October 15th will proably be the heaviest covered football game of the Season for FAU. It is the opening of the stadium and the start of Howards last season as head coach. Every media outlet in S. Florida will be there to cover this. On top of that, if a Head Coach is in place around mid October he will be in prime position for recuriting season.

Should FAU have in place its new coach to be introduced at this game?





I have come here to chew bubble gum and kick @$$ and I'm out of bubble gum.

NO!

Let Howard have the attention on him for his final season.

While I agree with this to a point, I'm also thinking about the future of the program. Howard could make his grand speech and then introduce the future of FAU football. It would turn what is a lack luster home schedule of games into a frenzy if its a big name hire. If its not and its some OC/DC from the AQ's it would not make sense.

Every TV game will have announcers talking about his retirement and accomplishments. HS will get plent of attention.

I see both sides, but probably best to announce it Oct 16th

Why?

To destract from everything they are playing for, and undermine the morale of HS' leadership?

Bad move!

Plenty of time to do that in December, after we win the New Orleans Bowl ;D

As anxious as I am to get Leach here already, I gotta say that this day should be all about the past and present Owls. I sure hope that athletics is inviting EVERY former player to this because they are all a part of this stadium.

This day should be a celebration of all the hard work that every former and current Owl has put in, not about the hard work that is going to be put in next year. We have to let Coach have his moment, this is his day.

Announce the hiring of Leach the next game or something so that we keep people interested in coming to games later on this season.

Announce at the 2nd home game, the televised night game vs. MTSU. Will actually get even move recruiting bump with that being televised.

Gotta give Howard his day on opening day!

Absolutely NOT on October 15.  That day has been in the works since 1998.  It is all about the stadium that Howard built.  Let's at least have a day to celebrate the new stadium.  That day, I don't give a rats you know what about the next coach!
