Good video of him talking about some of his route concepts.
Not saying I wouldn?t be happy with the hire, but there?s just something about Moorehead that doesn?t seem to jive with State and our team. Not basing this on his yankee blood either, just a gut feeling.Quote:

It might be right but it's uneducated right now and on no factual basis.
Matt talked about the kind of coach JC likes - similar to AC. He made some good points to reinforce his position.
Who are we interviewing that is similar to AC- youngish, recruiter, and high energy?
simliar to AC...that guy is JEREMY F^&#ing PRUITT!!!!! I would say the Penn State coach is more like a Scott Stricklin hire.Quote:

Pruitt has the football smarts and honestly some of that is just how he comes off as country. But don't discount the PSU guy. He is very creative and been successful at several levels including P5Quote:

Pretty damn obvious to me. He can't even get elite talent to Penn State. You think he will in the south???
On Jeremy's recruits... Jarren Mayden.. is that our QB commits brother?Quote:

Which will be weighed the most in his mind, I don't know, but I think we overvalue certain parts of what Cohen is looking for. Cohen is also a very maticulous organized type of guy and wants a CEO HC who has those qualities as well. He will hire who checks off the boxes that is most important and fits. Remember he also had a good relationship with Mullen and his gut told Byrne to hire him immediately after the interview. Moorehead fits some of those characteristics more than Pruitt. I like Cohen's direction a lot right now, with whoever he hires I think will be solidQuote:

Read the Sports Illustrated article on Moorhead if you have not already. It's great insight into who he is. He was a great head coach at the lower level (at a place that does not recruit itself) and has won at multiple places where most people can't. That job sound familiar?
Not going to happen. Cohen knows he can't recruit.
Pruitt must be a hell of a recruiter to get kids to sign with Bama, FSU, and UGA. LOLQuote:

With Pruitt we would a least have a chance. Can we afford to take ANY step back in recruiting especially now with what is going on at OM. We need someone that knows that area and will be an aggressive recruiter. THAT IS PRUITT. You know who else was an offensive genius 10 years ago? Dan Mullen. Any wasn't Phil Longo an offensive WIZARD at Sam Houston State averaging 50 points a game? We are talking about the SEC here. We have seen in big games what the talent gap looks like. We need another level added to our recruiting right now.Quote:

And last point, the assistants do most of the leg work with recruiting. Hire great recruiters. Mullen had a bunch of guys like Hev and Gonzo that were shitty recruiters.Quote:
