    Chad Morris

    Came to SMU after a 1-11 season. Went 2-9, then 5-7, then 7-5 with losses to 3 top 25 teams. Lead recruiter on Deshawn Watson to Clemson. In Jalen Mayden's back yard and I'm sure familiar with each other. His only drawback currently is he doesn't have a DC that is SEC level. If Cohen says he can have Grantham, I'm sure he'd be on board with that after seeing what Grantham did this year. That would lock up all of our defensive recruits and I imagine the main one he would have to work on offense would be Mayden.

    Would love to have Pruitt's recruiting prowess, but if you can get this, you take it all day. Honestly might be an upgrade overall.

    Chad Morris as the HC
    Todd Grantham staying on as DC and Assoc HC- with a big raise

    Would be a Grand Slam if Cohen pulled that off.
    That would be absolutely unreal.

    Morris is a good coach and recruiter. Pair him with Grantham and let’s roll.

    I'm dead serious when I say Morris/Grantham > than Mullen/Grantham

    Coached with Dabo, Offensive guru, head coaching experience and success, likes small towns, excellent recruiter. An Absolute homerun.

    I would think he would wait out A & M and Jimbo. He is also high on Ark board

    Curious. Any concerns with the fact that he had SJ Touhy on his coaching staff at SMU?

    Also, Mississippi State getting him would have to piss Ole Miss off, because Brad Logan claimed that Chad Morris "really wanted" the Ole Miss job.

    Why wouldn't Morris go to aTm? He is an Aggie.

    He will go to A&M if they miss on Jimbo.

    Because A&M is going after Fisher and has no Plan B at this point.

    Morris is their plan B and that's been known for a while

    Tuohy's son was their holder a couple of years ago. It wouldn't worry me.

    Gotta think Morris is drooling getting to play with Fitz & Key in his offense. If this happens with Grantham signing on we'll be better next year than we would be with Don Merlot. Our WR recruiting would instantly improve.

    He took over a mess with zero talent on the roster and is going bowling in year 3. Dumbass argument.
