Choate Leaves MSU for Texas

[THEsocalledfan]

I think it says a lot for how garbage overall the MSU program is when your HEAD coach leaves his job for a POSITION coach job......granted, it is Texas, but still....

Probably more of another indictment on FCS if this is what happens at one of your top programs.

Isn’t it pretty common for FCS head coaches to get position jobs at a P5 before getting head coaching jobs? I feel like Klieman is the exception...

Yes? That is the problem. It’s pretty common...

My comment was more directed at those thinking MSU is exceptionally shitty for losing their head coach.

...they’re shitty for other reasons.

So, is Choate the 3,4,5,6,7 in-line on the Texas coaching staff? So there’s a Defensive Coordinator title, and it’s not Choate. Usually when you have co-Defensive coordinators, both have Co in their title. Nope, not this time. His “Co D-Coordinator” title looks to be clearly for appearances. Ast coaches are listed in order of coaches last name, so I’m guessing he’s 7th in Line. Just my observation. Must have burned a bridge in going for Boise job, and wanted out when he didnt get it. Took the Texas job but is well down the coaches list.

Head Coach
Asso Head Coach
Offensive Coordinator
Defensive Coordinator
Special Teams Coordinator
Quarterbacks Coach
7) Inside LB/Co-D Coordinator, I.e. Save Face in MT (Choate)

Interestingly I don’t think he’s ever had a coordinator position. Looks like he jumped from DLine coach at Washington to HC at Montana State (which was his first HC job). I would be truly curious as to what those in the industry would consider to be steps up/down in that situation. He’s been a position coach (many different positions) all over the FBS, usually not staying more than one or two years before jumping ship. Interesting.

Conspiracy theory(made up entirely by me): He's simply staging his move to NDSU when Entz gets his FBS shot.
