Help Napier pick the next OC

[Egor's Assistant]

Let's see who racks up the most votes. Can Gatorchatter pick a winner? Let me know if you want me to add any names to the poll. Got it set that you can make up to 2 picks. And that you can also update your picks if you change your mind.

Need somebody who brings their own offense and not somebody who is just going to be calling Billy’s plays.

So with that said, need somebody proven and accomplished, not some young dude Billy will have his thumb on.

Someone who Billy gives the reigns, stays out of his way, lets him be a real OC. His conservative, predictable, sometimes naive plays need to go.

Unfortunately I believe that's what he would do. It's his MO. I have an article cue'd up and want to read it concerning his time as a QB in college. At the risk of sounding like a conspiracy theorist, I suspect he sees himself out there still and wants an offense that suits the skills(and mistakes) he experienced as a QB.

 

[Egor's Assistant]

Yeah he had some really good offenses at Oregon and UCF. He couldn't run his offense at the loser has been corn farm program that no recruit wants to play for, let alone the speedy southern recruits he needs to make his offense work.

My concern with Jeff Scott is that he was only a co-OC for Clemson, he has never been a sole OC and he has never been an OC outside of Clemson, plus he had Watson and Lawrence as his QBs. Any OC could look great with those QBs.

Joe Brady is similar. He has a high upside, but he is very risky. He was the passing game coordinator at LSU for one season and that team was loaded. That's literally his entire resume. Then he was the OC for Carolina for 2 seasons and he wasn't successful there.

Being an OC on an NFL team must be crazy detailed and professional. I'm sure that Brady is ready to take over the speedy Gators. It's way harder to have success in the NFL than at a place loaded with talent. NFL has more parity and is a more difficult league. Dude could prove himself here and catapult his career. Let's go get him, now.

SEC Championship - check.
Natty - check.
NFL experience - check.
OC experience - check.
Young enough to be hungry and recruit - check.

Thanks for the poll edit, oh, great and mysterious mods. Your wisdom guides us.

I've seen, from another thread, that Kerwin Bell is trending!

Assuming we keep Napier another year, this frees up 6.3 Million (85% of his 7.4 Million per year salary for his buy out). Say 2.1 million per year for a 3 year contract and we should be able to get any offensive coordinator we want. If we can't then our program/brand and/or Napier is truly damaged.

The 1st name that comes up is cliff Kingsbury. He's gonna be head strong enough to not be a yesman. Runs great system. Already been cycled through as a HC so he could be a long term answer.

 

[5-Star Finger]

Urban Meyer should name his own OC.

I would dance with joy if this happened.

He's been an HC at college and pro. You think he's gonna come be an OC, and for tater salad?

It beats being an analyst wich is his current position.

Poll is lacking Ham Sammich option.

Poll had a proper Ham Sammich option, but Mods removed it. Take it up with them.

Do I think he will? No. Would I like him to? Yes.

What are we living in? Nazi germany? I want my Ham Sammich dammit

 

[DarksideGator]

If Bills keep winning, and Allen looks impressive, Brady will get another shot calling plays in NFL IMO. You know how the NFL luvs trying coaches over and over.

That is unacceptable.

Dude, that's the way it is with facists, socialists, control freaks. First, they try to take away the food and then control you with it.
