CFB Coaching Changes: LSU loses OC, fires DC

Find your man and then....

 

[MooseSmack]

Has anyone seen this? Is this garbage or real?

 

[Spurdog98]

I'd say it's from the "Dicks out West" not real. He's real big on posting BS.

The next search MUST involve contacts with successful, big names at other programs that may seem happy - even if that gets out and we get some flack from our rivals. If you don't swing for the fences, the best you can hope for is an inside the park homerun - and those are rare.

So, a Cristobal or Riley?

Finding a diamond in the rough is what got us, Muschamp, McElwain, and Napier..... none of which were ready or a cultural fit for the organization. Meyer wasn't a diamond in the rough but a known quantity at a G5 becoming a P5, Spurrier had proven his ability at multiple stops. Galen Hall is the closest we have gotten in my lifetime to a diamond in the rough being successful at UF.

We didn't give Gary Darnell enough time...

Or Donald Douglas

Gary Darnell was a douche in person too....

I'm not keen on coaches that have one or two winning seasons at only one stop. Granted Billy looked like a better hire than Elko is.

I'm still on the Jamey Chadwell train. That's my guy.

You are correct, but if the time comes (hopefully soon) that we are in the market, the AD can't worry about the optics of chasing winners and settling for the discount bin at Walmart so that we don't have a prolonged, public search with being turned down by big names. That is how we got Zook and Mullen (panic hires worrying about the optics of being turned down by big names) and when we didn't bother to try big names, we got Muschamp, McElwain and Napier.

The next search MUST involve contacts with successful, big names at other programs that may seem happy - even if that gets out and we get some flack from our rivals. If you don't swing for the fences, the best you can hope for is an inside the park homerun - and those are rare.

I'm definitely not saying don't make phone calls. I'm just saying it's not a realistic expectation that some dude is gonna bounce from Oregon when they're in the playoff hunt to come take over a **** show like we have here. Texas anm has more money and resources than anyone , who they ended up with should tell you what the market yields.

So I am guessing that Brian Schottenheimer is of no interest? I mean, he knows coaches, he cut his teeth under SOS, he is a UF guy, dad was a NFL coach.

As OC, correct?

 

[Spurdog98]

NO! HBC. and if no..why? He's already an OC with the Cowboys why would he leave that for OC with us?

I think he is in dallas right now as "OC".

 

[Homer J]

He’s never been a head coach anywhere. Heck, he’s never coached in college.

 

[TheDouglas78]

He has been an assistant at Syracuse, USC and UGA

 

[Homer J]

Really? I didn’t know that.

Yeah...so what!

He basically got let go in Seattle for telling Carroll that Wilson was washed up. He's been in contention for several NFL jobs but withdrew his name. My guess was he saw how ****ty the situation was and bailed..he ain't dumb.

 

[FireFoley]

No To Schottenheimer Jr. in any way. He may be OC in title with Dallas but the HC calls the plays. Schottenheimer has been unsuccessful in all his stops as a play calling OC in the league.

I thought Cousin Eddie would constantly be mentioned for huge jobs in both college and the NFL or at least that is what we were told; Just came across this little nugget.

Whether Syracuse has zeroed in on Dino Babers’ replacement or Mullen removed himself from consideration is currently unknown. But it does appear that Mullen’s name will continue to resurface for some of these second-tier Power Five jobs, even if he doesn’t like to recruit,
