I've heard lots of arguments on this board why so many don't want Butch to hire Debord, from "He isn't even coaching now" to "he got beat by Appy State". I think the real reason that most don't like him is that he is older and not a splashy hire that will excite recruits and the fan base...its nothing more than age discrimination. The guy has done it all from being a HC in college to coaching in the pros. I would rather see him here than a young OC that has had only one or two years experience. Debord is smart, he has a masters degree and has been inducted into the Indiana hall of fame. He is also only 58..some of you guys talk like he is 70.
