UF Coaching Thread: Russ Callaway promoted to Co-OC

[williston_gator]

TOS is saying that there are a handful of names for LB coach. These were given by Graham and Chiles.

1. DJ Durkin
2. Jamar Cheney
3. Mark Ivey
4. Charlie Partridge
5. George Helow
6. CJ Wilford
7. Austin Armstrong

DJ would of course be the homerun hire.

So it probably won’t happen.

I did see Armstrong was an option. I guess that was his original position announced (alongside DC) so they have wiggle room.

I’d love to see Durkin back here. But we all know it’s going to one of those guys whose names sound made up. Helow, assuming he exists, would be my guess.

Does Helow currently work somewhere, cause when he leaves there, it's going to be awkward when they say, " Helow, goodbye."

Is that DJ running to the transfer portal?

Heading west, back to Texas.

 

[GatorJ]

That’s good to see

Ah, it's going to be such a fun year full of fan harmony and optimism.

Agree with this, they’re already gonna have to cough up 25 million plus for Napier’s buyout next year. It’s amazing how we keep hiring stubborn idiots for head coaches.

Blame that on our sorry ass inept AD for that decision. Stricklin needs to go!

 

[Gator CPA]

I have tried to watch some of her podcasts, but just can't do it. It's almost like, "I have nothing else to do so I am going to have a podcast".

I will give her credit where it is due. At least she is better looking than Beth Mowins. She's got that going for her. Maybe she's trying to get her job.

I watch Ali's podcasts sometimes and when she interviews Urban......Urban gets that smirk on his face like he wants to screw her brains out.

 

[Egor's Assistant]

I've stated for quite a while that he's fired after about 5 games when he's 1-4, maybe he makes it 1-5 but the only win left on his resume as the gator HC is Samford, and it'll be a win by a small margin.

Ah, it's going to be such a fun year full of fan harmony and optimism.

Seems many on here will be rooting for massive embarrassing losses so that we can fire him sooner and everyone can be right as rain. This is when Gatorchatter really shines. When we've drawn our knives and pitchforks and are fixin to run a guy outta town.

For me personally, unless Urbs makes it known he wants the job back on condition of Stricknine being fired, I'm going to root for the Gators to make an improbable comeback led by Sunbelt Billy-boy Taggert and his rag-tag band of OL coaches and assorted journeymen and JUCO players.

Good luck everyone. 2024 is gonna be lit! At least we ain't Noles.

If Lagway is good, he'll make whoever is calling the plays look good.

Lagway is going to be lucky to even get on the field next season.

 

[Joegator96]

Lagway is going to be lucky to even get on the field next season.

I think he will be lucky if he does not based on what our OL is apparently going to look like, PWO central.

 

[Alchemist]

I did see Armstrong was an option. I guess that was his original position announced (alongside DC) so they have wiggle room.

And then we could hire another OL coach. Chess, not checkers baby.

Joe Mayo was on that list, but frankly it sounds made up.

If nothing else, Joe Mayo would know how to delegate responsibility. It would be a well oiled machine at LB.

They would get jiggy with it.

 

[jdh5484]

How's he going to prevent the plays that take 15 seconds to develop with the WRs running next to each other for most of the play?

With the PWO oline letting a 2 man push rush through?

Quick hand-offs then denials.

Im very optimistic things are going to get better in November!!!!

DJ takes LBs, then interim HC after BN is fired.
