Vandy needs to go ahead and offer freeze first. Doubt he'd take it this early, but who knows. Vandy (OM's permanent opponent) getting freeze would be hilarious
Vandy was smart after his desperate attempt yesterday
"Historic" firing by Vandy. Clown show yesterday. The team quit.
So who does vandy call? I liked Todd's suggestion of Todd monken for them. Would Chadwell have interest? Could they get my boy, Dave clawson? Do they recycle and go with Barry Odom?
Vandy would never entertain Freeze, maybe after hell freeze over.
They need to try and hire a notable recycled NFL name. Jeff Fisher. Bill O'Brien type.
If that doesn't work, I commit to the service academy approach. Triple option attack and go pay someone a bunch of money to run it.
Vandy will no longer compete in the SEC with a traditional offense because they will never get the talent. Best chance they've got is to have a system that they can perfect and recruit players to that system and out execute folks.
Very similar approach we are taking.
Vandy wouldnt hire Freeze
Vandy need to hire from the Paul Johnson coaching tree and run something nobody else does. They could attract smart kids that would play option football. They wont compete any other way and they arent going to win there anyway except for the random bowl appearance every 5-7 years. The South and Midwest is full of RB's and run-blocking linemen to help get some talent.
Vandy fires a black HC that just made history by playing the first female in SEC/power 5??
I suggested his cousin Jeff Monken at Army. I think Clawson would be a fit there since he has had success at Wake Forest which is similar to Vandy.
Monken has applied for the last three open SEC jobs- MSU, Mizzou, and South Carolina. And he's from Georgia. So I'm pretty sure he wants to come to the SEC.
Dang, I guess the stupid PR stunt he pulled yesterday couldnt even save his ass. #SoBold
Dressing the girl and letting her “kick” was one of the most ridiculous and over blown PR stunt in college football in a long time if not ever...
I have to feel Coach Mason might have known this was his last game and said **** it ... and he may have even been pressured into it .. see The AD at Vandy..
And with the next hire there... I have said it before for another school.. Offer Rich Rod and see if he can bring Plumlee.. RR gets a 7 figure pay check and gives him a chance to resurrect his career win 6 games and get a another decent offer
Bandy possible the worse job in P5 to only Kansas.
I wouldn't mind if Bill Bedenbaugh was our coach. He would be a good choice for Vandy:
Age: 47
Salary: $750,000
For all the benefits and successes of the Air Raid, there are some knocks. Why can’t anyone pair it with a good defense? How do you maintain physicality on offense? Oklahoma has done a good job of answering those questions under Lincoln Riley. On defense, it’s Alex Grinch (see below). On physicality, it’s Bedenbaugh is the answer. Under Bedenbaugh the Sooners have been able to insert a power run game into the Oklahoma attack and they've been able to produce NFL offensive linemen at a striking rate. With offensive line coaches like Sam Pittman, Mario Cristobal and Ryan Silverfield landing head coaching gigs in recent years, the respect is growing for the guys that do this at the level of Bedenbaugh.
Vandy tried the option in the past, it didn't work. They need to make a commitment to their facilities. And they need to find the right coach. James Franklin won there. They are in the weaker division. You can average 6 wins per year at Vandy. Great city to sell and great education to sell. Stanford is a good model for them. I guess that's why they hired Mason.
Nothing points to Vandy committing anything to football. If they didn’t when Franklin was there and he had back to back 9 win seasons will they ever?
It’s a one year window job. The year you win 6 you better get the **** out if you have another offer somewhere or go into Mullen Mode and look everywhere for one..
Mason had his window close after the 2018 season .
Moorehead to Vandy***
JoMo to Vandy...
He would win there I think. Assuming he's not over the hill. Georgia Tech is similar to Vandy in some ways. But that's why I mentioned Monken. He's a younger version of Johnson and comes from his coaching tree. IMO Monken is a better coach but Johnson is very good too.
