Still very confused about why so many here think hall isn't ready?
We give a guy with lots of HC experience and 'connections' generational money and he's a train wreck so who is ready? Oh yeah, he was a bad hire. Awww hindsight...
Everything we do in life has a learning curve and Hall shows promise so why not?

He's 0-2. There's one reason.
I think the burden of proof is on the "Hall for Head Coach" people, not on the people who are skeptical about him.
I like him. He's young, enthusiastic and very knowledgable about defense. I'd love to see him on the staff next year. Maybe as D Coordinator? That's big step up from position coach.
I don't know if he yet the tools or experience necessary to run a FBS program.

I don't know if he yet the tools or experience necessary to run a FBS program. What is tough in this analysis is that we were SO bad under Anderpants that a coked out spider monkey would look good as HC. I give Hall a lot of credit for being a stabilizing force in a very bad situation. But at the same time, all he is really doing is the basic common sense things that we should of already been doing. I made another post that what he has done was end all the bulls%#t that was going on. stopped the stupid games and is just playing basic football. That is great. He is a high energy, enthusiastic person. I like him. He is a tremendous motivator and I feel kids are elevating their play for him. But, He also hasn't shown us anything that really says YES! you are the HC without a doubt. There are still a lot of questions left around him. He still has 4 games left, kids are committing for him, there is lots of positive momentum around him, but still a lot of unknown.

Whatever happens....and what I think has NO bearing on any of it.....I surely hope OSU is able to retain Hall in a meaningful capacity. DC, etc.

DC, etc. Agreed, I hope we can keep him as a DC - he certainly has turned a bunch of 2nd-3rd string inexperienced D-Backs thrown into the fray by injuries into a rapidly improving secondary, and we are playing much better defense overall.

For those who think Hall hasn't done anything yet.... He coached us to a chance to win against Colorado, he had Stanford on the ropes until 2:31 left in the game, a converted 4th down and we still had a sniff at a last second pass to the end zone with our back up QB! Missing one of our best WR (seth). Granted those games were at home but give the guy credit for not only keeping things "together" so we could suit up a team and play a game, he made us competitive. Fair criticism that we haven't won under him, that is a fact jack! I hope that he is in consideration. I hope that our search is truly Nationwide and includes names we know as well as Mr. Hall. We do have 4 more to go, so lets see how he handles a player mini crisis... Hungalu see separate post, a road game, and the CW. Us fans get all frothy at the mouth for a decision and an announcement but it aint gonna happen folks until after the season. If our Administration picks him, I'm excited. If they pick someone else, I'm excited because they beat out Hall and I will cross my fingers he finds a spot on the new staff. Go Coach Hall, don't get distracted by us fans wanting to jump ahead to the next hire... stay the course and keep making us better every week!. P.S. - It also doesn't really matter too much what we want... I doubt the AD is reading our board for advice

Still very confused about why so many here think Hall is ready? hard to believe you or anyone would use the 'all he's done is lose two games' argument. That's silly... besides, my original point was the use of the term 'ready' in regards to Hall. Apparently GA wasn't ready so what does 'ready' mean? Is it like Desean Watson wasn't 'ready' to start over Tom Savage at the beginning of the season? Good grief. Sometimes you make a choice based on what you think someone can do. It's a chance but such is life.

Have to agree! I'm not saying Hall will or would be a successful HC at the power 5 level but AT least I'm interested in watching Beaver football again. The team is playing with purpose now. There was a time this season that I wouldn't watch the Beavers play let alone attend a game after the Portland State debacle. It was obvious then the team wasn't playing loose or with confidence. Heck, Anderson wasn't confident in his decisions or the direction of the team and ran off some quality players. Even with the injuries we've had this year I'm of the opinion if Hall had been head coach instead of Anderson we'd have at least 4 wins by now. Hall brings a-lot to the table for OSU. Time will tell.

There is some wisdom in that, especially under the current circumstances, but I don't know that it's a fantastic long term strategy in and of itself. At some point the business apsect of football matters as much as the motivational aspect. I can't make any judgement of where our interim coach is on that point.
