Plain and Simple.

Who gets moved off the staff, we are maxed out staff wise. Need to get rid of 1 to hire an OC?

Keenum and Selmon ain't going to do anything expect talk "tuf" knowing good and well another year of bad football is headed our way. They're both clueless and Lebby....is just Lebby.

I'm guessing we could move our QB coach to an off the field spot or hire a special teams coach that can also coach another position?

It's going to take some figuring out to do.

Again, I am in no way saying that those types of conversations have even been broached. But if you told me we fired Jeff Lebby this weekend, it would not catch me completely off guard.

There are already going to be major staff changes made, that I can confirm. David Turner is retiring. I have that one confirmed by 5 or 6 people who would know. Corey Bell is not being retained. Same 5 or 6 people confirmed that one. I cannot get an absolute confirmation on Hutzler being let go, but signs were pointing the way as of early this weekend. On the offensive side, there is a lot of smoke in Ft Worth that Sonny Dykes will either be let go or step down after their game tomorrow. I have that on pretty good authority with some people in the DFW area. If/When that happens, I expect we will offer Kendall Briles the OC/QB coach with complete play calling autonomy. I also fully expect Cliff Odom is let go in the coming days and that one has been in the works since the end of October.

Like I stated earlier, I am not saying that Lebby is being let go. But I sure as hell would not want to be in his chair in the coming days.

Dude we aren't firing Lebby. Good grief. It's not remotely gonna happen. Stop.

I'll be honest- if Lebby comes back with a new DC that is legit and a new ST coach I can get on board with that. He'll still need to win more games to satisfy me and he'll still be on the hot seat but those changes would make me feel better.

Second sentence bud, “I am not saying we are firing Lebby or that those conversations are even being broached”

Something to think on

Clark Lea was struggling early on at Vandy. Then he hired Jerry Kill and Diego Pavia tagged along. Now look. Coaching changes can make big impacts.

I don’t see Lebby giving away play calling duties

Selmon needs to help 'manage' these moves.

That's why Selmon NEEDS to be in the mix.

He just got a new six year deal. So, yes.

I?m not saying it is going to happen, but OM went all in firing Houston Nutt in 11 after Mullen won 3 in a row. And Nutt was a much more accomplished coach than Lebby. Will it happen? No, but Lebby better damn feel the fire rising up around his feet

Yeah. I don't think Clark Lea is exactly Andy Reid either.

If they hate losing to Ole Miss so much then put front the same amount they do for a roster

Anyone hearing anything about Will Muschamp as the DC?

And no, Bo Bounds isn't my source.

Yeah well Jeff Lebby ain't exactly Clark Lea or Andy Reid either. Yet anyway.

If we're making these staff changes, count me enthusiastically in for one more year for Lebby. Need to make sure the DC, DL, and OL coach hires are all top notch. Where's Hev nowadays? Throw an OL Brinks truck at him to get him back. I don't care if he doesn't want to recruit, the sumbitch can flat coach an OL.

I thought Will had taken a step back and really liked being at Georgia as an analyst.

Does he have the coaching bug again?

That would be huge.
