I got to speak with coach last year when he was recruiting my son to play Oline up there. Nice guy from what I could tell. My son ended up in the SEC so Harvard does know talent and is looking for those winning players. Happy retirement coach!

Doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will.
Harvard reportedly down to four finalists.

I predict they’ll hire from within. One of the two Harvard assistants will get the job.
Harvard Football keeps with tradition and goes outside the family (they always do).
Andrew Aurich, Tight Ends Coach at Rutgers, to Serve as Next Harvard Football Head Coach | News | The Harvard Crimson (thecrimson.com)
Interesting, I thought for awhile that Joel Lamb was the heir apparent for the Johnnies....he probably did too.
We will see how it plays out. But I can understand if the Harvard faithful feels underwhelmed. Tim Murphy was HC at the U. of Cincinnati. Joe Restic was HC for a Canadian Football League team. John Yovicsin was HC at Gettysburg. Those are the Harvard head football coaches since the Ivy was formalized.
And two longtime Harvard assistants were passed over for Aurich.
I would not be surprised if Harvard goes through some growing pains in the next season or two while Aurich implements his vision for the team (whatever that may be)...
Haley hasn’t announced Aurich yet. I’m not confident of Aurich’s assistant coaching experience… if he had been an Ivy assistant as well…

Will FCS football survive the mess created by the NIL saga?

It seems that the main complaint from Harvard alums is that Aurich is a Princeton guy. Can't blame them for being skeptical.
The Princeton connection doesn’t bother me a bit. Since all four finalists were assistants of some type without HC experience, I thought they’d stay “in-house.” I wonder what Hu, Fitzpatrick, and Berry thought.Originally Posted by bulldog10jw
At least Claudine Gay didn’t get the job.
The article in the Crimson made it sound like they were going to do interviews, but hadn't done them yet. I wonder what their input was.
