Prediction - WE hire the Penn State guy
Seems like Cohen's type of guy.

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.

Your prediction isn't worth more than throwing a penny in the toilet full of turds.
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.

How do you know so much about Moorhead? I barely know the guy. I did love how he got Barkley the ball in games when teams gameplanned to stop it.

Cohen also likes a coach with a high IQ. That's more Moorehead than Pruitt. Cohen wants a smart coach and that is why Moorehead will be interviewed. 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 P5

Does Cohen want this?

Pretty damn obvious to me. He can't even get elite talent to Penn State. You think he will in the south???

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 solid

Good find! Tks

The best thing about Moorhead is that our fans are already misspelling his name. Sign his ass up! But for real, from what I've read about him he is going to be absolutely outstanding wherever he goes. I hope it's here. I would be happy with any of our top candidates at the moment, though. 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.

The point is...HE KNOWS THE RECRUITING GROUND!! HE HAS RELATIONSHIPS ALL ACROSS THE SOUTH!!! It would be a transition with Moorhead. At the very least we would suffer in recruiting for 3 or 4 years. 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.

FSU, UF, and Texas have recruited great and they all sucked this year. UF and Texas have sucked for several years. Get the best COACH. Also you are just assuming that Moorhead can't recruit. 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.
