Looks like he’s our guy

It’s not confirmed yet, but my sources are telling me that Dickert is bringing in Nick Rolovich as offensive coordinator.

But Jake Heaps says he’s not a legitimate candidate. Obviously that should mean something.

Everything points to a Doba era part 2, but with Bill Doba Jr being a quarter century younger.
The lazy ass alum candidates have about all made themselves unhirable even as assistants.
Colton seems to believe it is happening heard from solely at SI as well. He’s tryptophan find sometimes concrete.
Jeff Banks confirmed as assistant HC and ST coordinator. Working out the details, he wants to be paid with ones and fives.
If he does leave, I'd rather he'd leave before hiring another football coach.
I like Dickert, but he feels 5 years away still. I'll make final official judgment when I see the whole staff filled out, but I can't say I'm super psyched right now, especially if the search wasn't really a search.
Let's say he stays and doesn't hire Dickert but somebody else.
Even that NOT Dickert guy knows that Chun won't be around to make his FOURTH football coach hire as WSU AD and would need to leave WSU sometime during his WSU coaching tenure.
So does the outside guy take gig if he knows Chun has to be ready to depart and better opportunities may await? Plus the 2 most recent hires in this state were allowed to coach 11 and 13 games respectively no matter the circumstances of them leaving
I doubt it’s overly cheap. Between him and the assistant pool when looking at money saved from Rolo, it will give him a chance to succeed
That said if he has early success don’t mess around and give him an extension. There’s a lot of struggling programs right now that have more resources than we do.
There are several reports, but they all seem to refer back to the same initial one from On3Sports.
More recent reports say there is a team meeting tonight. I would think if that was true, it would probably be wrapping up soon. I wouldn’t think they’d be calling players in after 8 on a Saturday.

Money will be saved regardless. The university will lose no money. The state would settle worst case.
I assume the money comes from the AD general fund, or the university general fund. Given the 5th Circuit ruling on the OSHA mandate, things will be getting interesting.
Instead of a short deal, I don't know why WSU wouldn't just have it be a typical 5-year contract but with a favorable buyout. If he isn't making the cut, you terminate with the low buyout anyway. If he is doing well, you extend, just like you would have to do with the shorter term deal. You aren't going to let him get to be a lame duck. If he has something like a 3-year deal, that will hurt recruiting. If it's a 5-year deal that functionally is the same from a buyout perspective, everyone is excited and there is no impact on recruiting or how he is perceived.
Claeys simply wanted the Wimpy deal on hamburgers - "If you give me 100 hamburgers today, I will pay you back with coaching next Saturday"
Yeah this 100%. You’ve at least got to have the appearance of a long term commitment to give the guy a chance in recruiting. He was never gonna get offered only 2-3 years.
Jake Dickert Named 34th Head Football Coach at Washington State - Washington State University Athletics

The OSHA mandate really isn’t relevant.
First, Washington isn’t an OSHA state, they can make more stringent rules - or rules that don’t exist under OSHA.
Second, the OSHA mandate has been enjoined to evaluate whether private employers can be forced to enforce a mandate. There’s no debate over whether employers can create their own mandate, and it’s established and agreed that state and federal employers can. So far, no court has made a ruling that’s going to help Rolo dodge Washington’s state employee mandate.
