Clawson "GON RUN DAT BAWL".

He's not a quick fix guy... throw out his first year at every stop and he's 140- 104 (.574). That's certainly not great, but when you look at where he's been, it looks better. He's won 10 or more at all 4 stops. He's on a 7-year bowl streak at wake, and wake is probably just as tough or tougher to win at than state. He's had his best players stolen during the transfer portal. He's a very good coach that's proven he can win at a big time talent deficit
Wake Forest used to be the Rice, Vandy, Northwestern of the ACC. They have a consistently better program than the SEC, B1G and Big 12 bottom feeders. But that didn?t happen consistently until Clawson. He does more with less, but has been able to get good QB play and excellent Defensive play.
He is in a better situation than State and probably has a near lifetime contract at Wake if he loves Winston Salem.
No thanks on any coordinators. We must have someone who can manage a program, not call plays.
Sean Lewis is another great young coach whose offense I love.
I'd take Sean Lewis at Mississippi State over Zach Arnett in a heartbeat!
In fact, it excited me because he's available. I'm trying to think of a way to get Lebby, Lewis, and Briles on the same staff. That offense would absolutely cook!! Who gives a crap about defense?
Pretty obvious that practicing against Leach's offense helped keep the secondary in phase with their coverages. They were much better at identifying routes and knowing when to carry vs pass off the receiver in zones last year. Practicing against the AR had an effect there, because they aren't getting the reps vs the pass against the neanderball scheme they are running now.
