Dimel appreciation thread

He is ??

Look at his record and the schools he was at. Definitely a better resume than Dimel.

If he’s so great then why didn’t TCU have any interest in retaining him ?

Because TCU is a good job and they can get someone better and younger.

They went for a younger coach, one who hasn’t medically retired from a P5 head coaching gig. Kill might do better health wise at a place where 3+ wins a season and the occasional bowl is what’s expected, rather than a P5 who’s looking to make the playoffs.

Aye, NoWins! He has a good resume but cancer and epilepsy almost ended it.

"Kill, 60, last served as a permanent head coach at Minnesota, which he led from 2011 until 2015, when he had to retire for medical reasons. Kill, a cancer survivor who suffers from epilepsy, returned to coaching in 2017 at Rutgers. He then became Southern Illinois' interim athletic director in 2018 and remained until 2019, when he took a job on Virginia Tech's coaching staff. Kill came to TCU in 2020 as a special assistant to Patterson."

His health conditions are well known. Not even sure the reason you’re bringing it up??

Do “normal people” put their health conditions on their resume? I have never seen anyone put “fat”, “has diabetes”, “ has narcolepsy”, and stuff like that on a resume. Have you?
