Comments about ‘Utah State football: Sources say USU's Brent Guy fired’

Least surprising development of the football season

Its about time. Hope they hire Stew on as head football coach. haha

I thought he would get another year. They showed improvement this year that could have been built on next season.

It was not that he was not a good person - he just could not win. When it comes down to that you have to make the tough choice. I hope Boise State wins and that he enjoys the free $250k he gets for the last year of his contract.
Cap

I was born and raised in Logan and the only fond memory I have of USU Football was when they won the Las Vegas Bowl over Ball State. Hopefully, they can bring in someone who will at least win 4-5 games a year. Does John L. Smith have a job? GO AGGIES GO AGGIES HEY HEY HEY. (lamest fight song ever)

Who is USU??

Never heard of them...but I have heard of Weber State and Ron McBride!

USU was foolish not to take Ron McBride a few years ago!

Hey Aggies!

Your new coach is just down the road in Ogden. McBride would be great for USU.

YAY!!!! there is hope for our poor football team!!!!! :) yay!!!! GO AGGIES!!!!! :)

Good Hire Gary Andersen Already.

BG seems like a nice guy, but his system never worked. I dont know why we only had a few JC transfers over the years. The whole recruit just highschool kids is terrible.

He just never seemed to take accountability. This move is a year too late. Your coaching career is over if you go to utst. Theres no chance you can succeed here. Barnes has his work cut out for him.

Well that is too bad for coach Guy. Thank you for your service and for taking the fall for us. You did a great job, finding great new talent and cleaning up our off field issues. Hold your head high, you took on a mountain of a problem when you signed up as our head coach. I sincerely wish you the best and hope you have great success in the future. Please bring home a W on your final game with USU against New Mexico State.

Good luck and thanks again for your service!

Finally! I just feel so bad for Otis Nelson and the rest of the seniors that had to deal with that program, sorry buddy! They have the talent to win some games, they just need a coach that wants to pay the extra price. Good lock O dizzle and I hope all your dreams can still come true! Your boy one luv!

I feel bad for Guy, I think he tried to make a difference, but I can't disagree that a change was needed. I'll look forward to a fresh start with a new head coach next year. Hopefully, the AD can find that person.

I hope we get better! Actually I really hope we don't get worse! I wish Guy good luck in his future and the Aggies good luck finding a new and better coach!

Either we try to get Coach A or somebody else will, I'm not saying he will take the job with everything he has done at Utah but al least lets try. HIRE ANDERSEN.

Can't you count it as 6 wins in the past 3 years? I mean all Aggie and Ute fans claimed a victory for USU when they scored a few points on BYU.

I actually feel bad for Guy. He'll land on his feet somewhere but it really doesn't matter who you bring in to coach. When it comes down to it, the football program is still Utah State. A new coach won't have success for at least 5 years. The whole mentality of the program has to change. Who really wants to come to Logan? It's small, nothing to do, it can get really cold, never on national television. The fact that there are already two nationally recognized teams in Utah doesn't help Utah State for recruiting.

If they do bring in a new coach, how long will you give them before you axe them as well. A new coach will need at least 5 years and really up to 10.

1. How do you overcome 30 years of futility?
2. How do you change the negative charma that follows this program?
3. How do keep local talent from leaving?
4. How do we compete with Utah and BYU?
5. How you going to accept losing?
6. Is USU simply a stepping stone?
7. Did you land a golden parachute? 5 year guaranteed?
8. Can you make USU significant in the football world?
9. Why?

The rumor is that John L Smith is already signed up and that they wanted to do this sooner but the win over Hawaii delayed things.

Hire Andy Ludwig. Or Robert Anae.
