I figure this name is going to come up a lot.

From what I've seen he has been the best recruiter on every staff he has been on, a recruiting coordinator at many, and has had a top offense. Out of the box he checks boxes that none of our last "offensive coaches" did. To a man they consistently produced lower ranked dud offenses and only had the occasional good one (at least Butters and Mullen did, Slingblade was always shiite).

Billy Bags was thought to be a good recruiter too, but as we've seen so often moving someone from Alabama often makes a "good recruiter" much more average. He has produced the lowest ranked recruiting classes in Florida history.



Obviously, the offense is spread option with Oregon like fast tempo. Run first it seems unless they were just afraid of Alabama's secondary. Some vertical passing. Special teams come to play. Hard to tell much more with only highlights. Everyone looks good in highlights. It IS Syracuse, but frankly Syracuse would pound us.

Looking at some of the stats, he gets pretty run heavy at time, like 2:1. Some times he is slightly over 50% passing.

Do I at least want to see more? Maybe.

He was a big part in the Iowa state and Tennessee turnaround and now he's turned usf around on his 1st gig. He would have a good recruiting pitch to keep lagway. His last 2 qb's put up video game like numbers. And he's already got a good DC. Atleast better than any we've had in the last 15 years. He's got to win some games this year though. But there's alot of potential here.

I have season tickets to USF games. The offense is crazy fast paced. He’s been a great catch for USF. I hope he sticks around.

Big thing with these coaches that want to bust their hump and win continuously vs just be a celebrity. But is he a spy, that is the question.

The sad thing is this may be the year to hunt small caps. We've unfortunately come up empty handed so many times that we're being forced to fish large caps.

I’ve been talking about him for over a week as a “should be considered” backup if we miss on the larger targets we’re supposedly considering. I even even posted his interview with Rome yesterday. You don’t get to sidle up to me now and take credit for this if it turns out to be good. As long as Brohm is in the running—which it sounds like he is—he is your guy. I get the Russian.

Brohm is kicking ass at Louisville!!!

But nahh... he has proven unable to recruit or have interest in a defense. You take all data and process it.

I still don't love the run first aspect of Golesh but I don't have much to watch given that USF youtube is sparse and only highlights.

That fuching mole on Brohm’ s face is the only defense he needs.

Bonus points for properly using the word 'sidle' on here.
