I pray to God that Leach can survive this. Doesn?t matter if he ever coached again I just want him alive and well.Quote:

I think you try your dangest to stay within the air raid system to help with the transition.
1a. Garrett Riley. I’ve warmed to Riley. Big risk, big reward. He’s young. Brother to Lincoln so he’s got the pedigree. What he’s done with Duggan and the TCU offense is exactly what we need.
If we can keep him paired with Arnett, that is a huge plus.
1B. Jeff Traylor. He might be 1 depending on a few things. He’s going to be less risk, not sure how big the reward is. Though it could be a big reward. I’m not sure if he’s an air raid guy and that’s more the only worry I have. But he throws the ball a lot and runs it about like a lot of us have been asking. He may be a mixture of spread/air raid from what I can tell of his coordinators and him.
2A. Jamey Chadwell. Winner. Will be a transition back to spread option though. Which is why he is here. I actually like him most of all. Mississippi connections. Could be a lifer.
2b. Gus Bus. He’s won everywhere he’s been. Recruits to what has always been our strengths. Obviously a risk because of being fired at auburn. But I think he could up our recruiting level slightly which could change some things.
3. Dave Clawson. Very similar to Mullen. But is a transition back to Spread option. Not sold on him in the SEC and his recruiting. But I could be wrong.
4a/4b, 4c Kane Womack - USA and Jon Sumrall - Troy and Zach Arnett. Biggest risks than most above. Offenses will change. Decent upside. Have been in the SEC before as coordinators or coaches.
5. Bring back Dan the Man. Doubt we ever get here, but dear god if we do. Just bring him back. It’s better than anything else we’d get if you get here.
Sonny Dykes is actually my number one. But no way that happens. Granted I’d pay him 10 mil. And say take or it leave it. We’re in the SEC. Come to big boy football.
I think you could look at Will Hall, (lot of jury still out here, great job with the hand he was dealt so far though, Willie Fritz (too old), Todd Monken, Rhett Lashlee, and Mike Elko
Traylor runs a spread run / option - RPO offense. Utilizes mobile QB's. Riley is the only one on your list that runs an Air Raid type of offenseQuote:

Yeah, he wouldn't leave them. Not sure of his contract but this ain't happening.....
Shotgun, where the heck you been? Welcome back.....
Well then get ready for Joe Moorhead type transition 2.0.Quote:

I would take Gus/Arnette in a heartbeat.
One giant problem. We already have a QB. And with Parson coming in our backup is better than what he would bring with him. Just sayin...Quote:

I'd roll with Arnett and the current staff. They obviously like working together and keeping that continuity is a good thing.
I'd be down with Kane Wommack. He did an outstanding job at South Alabama. He's a defensive/special teams guy. So I think he would be OK with an Air Raid OC. Of course, the question is can he be a CEO guy and let Arnett do his thing?Quote:

Yep. Deion would start his son at QB no question. That would be pretty awkward given the situation.Quote:

I think a guy like Riley would do really well with that type of quarterback once he gets some seasoning.Quote:

1) It wouldn't take much for Gus, Dan or any other competent spread option coach to get their system up and running, just get a couple of QBs and RBs from the Portal and you're set. Although the OL has primarily pass blocked for the last few years, they can be trained to run block, most of them likely went through HS in a spread option offense.
2) Deon is absolutely not doing to leave Colorado after just taking the job and putting his players through the portal to sign with Col.
And a "chat room" is gonna take a stand, no matter how hard it is, and do what needs to be done and hire our next coach? You and the OP have ZERO to do with what our administration does so yeah, this thread is needless and premature. Our "discussion" on who should be our next coach is worthless and honestly quite heartless.Quote:

I don't recall anyone making you click the thread, read the thread, or respond to the thread.Quote:

Look up the definition of irony douche, not even close. I wasn't adding to this disrespectful thread, I was calling out you dumbasses for "moving on" while many are praying for a miracle. It's called respect and class a**hole.Quote:

You know Cohen had a list of candidates ready just in case, maybe he left it in his desk drawer.
Just stay out of the thread Mr. Moral Authority. You’re the guy being disrespectful.Quote:
