Would he take our job? And would his record at Wake Forest be good enough for our fanbase?

We don't want another Rick Ray situation. We need to have someone good in place before we pull the trigger on Joe.

Go:

Mike Norvell
Willie Fritz
Josh Heupel (maybe waiting out for a higher profile job)
Todd Grantham?

I'm not sure we could pull Heupel from UCF. Sonny Dykes has SMU rolling, but he's even further from Mullen's offense (which is apparently what we want again?) than Moorhead is. And while he was good for La Tech and seemingly SMU, he didn't work at Cal.

Luke Fickell at Cincy would be my addition to the list

Really now is the time to start putting that in place. The best thing Cohen did last time was offer Dan an extension early forcing his hand which allowed us to research things and get things in place quickly.

Saltydog

10-12-2019, 02:22 PM

My list would start and end with Norvell. He has Memphis rolling right now and he'll be a hot commodity. Don't think we could pull him but I like Matt Campbell at Iowa State a lot.

Quaoarsking

10-12-2019, 02:23 PM

I'm fine with any offense, even Joe's, as long as we win at the expected level and improve over the years. But switching back a run-oriented spread is probably the easiest to maintain.

You have to be careful taking coaches from places that are advantageous to win at like Norvell and Heupel. That's why I liked Neal Brown so much, but I digress.

He is such an odd coach to think about. Part of me says he's a really good coach, but then part of me says he's not. You can't lie with the numbers this year though, they look really good so far.

I'd be good with Clawson all day. He only makes 1.8.

Todd4State

10-12-2019, 02:26 PM

I'd really like to get someone with some Southern ties that's actually from the South. And doesn't look down on us like Croom did.

To me, I think I would almost prefer a CEO coach like Jackie. Someone that's not married to a certain scheme like Joe, Dan, and Croom were. That way if it doesn't work out it's much easier to change and may allow us to not miss guys like Minchew because they "don't fit our scheme."

I'm more concerned about the rebuilding period it took. I don't think we're too far off with a good hire.

Matt Campbell was always my number 1 choice followed by Neal Brown. Clawson was a close 3rd. He is winning at Wake Forest with me playing

Hell, bring in the Pirate. At least we'd win the press conference.

I would love that, but I don't think he would take the job. He loves the West and the remoteness of Pullman (Starkville is a booming metropolis compared to Pullman), and he's got a good thing going there.

However, yes, I would definitely give him a call and give him the hard sell. Shrader would do very well in his offense.

Tenn was a dumpster fire with Fulmer being fired in season. Bad situation. He has built at every place he has been and won at 4 different places. Not saying he is the guy or if we could get him but the 1 year at Tenn has to be looked at through the entire program having major issues

10-12-2019, 02:45 PM

Lane Kiffin is 8-9 his last 17 games from last season and so far this year. For those who still put him out there, the shine has been off of that turd for a decade.

Then you won't want Leach. He's required to have a WTF game every year.

2019:Blew a 32 point lead with 6 minutes left in the 3Q against UCLA, giving UCLA their only win on the season to date
2017: eviscerated 37-3 by a 5-7 Cal team
2016: lost to Eastern Washington
2015: lost to Portland State

I'm a huge fan of the guy, but I'd prefer to be a huge fan of him at another school.

The only thing about Stoops is I'm not sure how realistic getting him would be.

But I do think a retread would be a good option for us. Technically that's what Jackie was.

Then again- Kansas was able to land Les Miles.

One thing we may have going for us now that S Car beat UGA, and Pruitt can at least try to sell that they're trending in the right direction, is that us and Vandy might would be the only SEC teams hiring at the end of this season if we were to pull the trigger.

Yeah, it may be a pipe dream. But if we're serious about having a nationally relevant program, we should offer him $7M a year and make him turn us down. If he doesn't want it, so be it.

The only available other coaches I can think of who've won on a national level are Urban Meyer (not coming, although we should call him too just in case), Gene Chizik (nope), and Mark Helfrich (someone we should definitely look into, although why hasn't anyone else for the last 3 years?)

I don't think he'd come either but it'd be a lower pressure job than since he left Utah. Coaching at Florida and Ohio State would make anybody sick.

That's one bad year that included QB issues (grad transfer vs. good true freshman, actually), close losses, and still got a win over #11 Utah.

He had issues and got his seat warm the year before with some bad losses and collapses. Including to TCU in the bowl game, giving up like 40 something points in the second half and getting shut out. Lot of concern that his first 2 years were just extension what was already in place and he was driving them off a cliff. Went 4-8 his last season and they fired him.

Someone with an exciting offense. If we are going to suck, I at least want to be entertained.

Hell, bring in the Pirate. At least we'd win the press conference.

I'd be good with this

We don't want another Rick Ray situation. We need to have someone good in place before we pull the trigger on Joe.
I?m not sure we aren?t already in the RR situation.

Not sure he's ready, but I think he'll be good eventually

No defense. Nuff said.

Not the pirate. He doesn’t know how to play defense.
Grantham and a bad a$$ OC would be my choice.

Go:

Mike Norvell
Willie Fritz
Josh Heupel (maybe waiting out for a higher profile job)
Todd Grantham?

Fritz?s team looking good on espnu

If we aren?t smart enough to go get Bill Clark then it?s all just a waste of time. The guy just gets it done.

I agree that would be a good hire. I preferred him, Pruitt, or Neal Brown last time, but Cohen apparently prefers Yankee coaches.

Looked great against army and looked a hell of a lot better against auburn than we did. Him and will hall have adapted his triple option into a great blended offense. They play hard and they are innovative. Did you catch the army game they played last week or the game against Houston? Those plays in Houston make jo look like an amateur. Hell Napier?s offense looked way better than ours granted our defense is terrible.

Nope but I'll start watching Tulane closer

Derick Dooley or Lane Kiffin would be an improvement.
Neither one can coach at all. We?d be swapping shit for shit

If there is a new coach, his first hire should be Shrader's high school coach .

You guys keep throwing out names without knowing their personality and their personality is about 80% of this.

Go get the RIGHT guy

1. Probably could have (and maybe should have) hired him instead of Joe, but he's not going to leave Kansas after 1 year for us.
2. I'd be cool with it, but I highly doubt he leaves Washington State unless it's for a really high-profile job.
3. Um, no?

Les ain't the answer. Not to have any hope to get past where we were. And when I say past I mean a special year ever 4 or 5 years. Mullen had us poised to do that last year if he wanted to hang around, which he didn't.
Les could get us 8 maybe 9 a year tho.

Leach = No D.

Bielema -- seriously?
