Official The OC Candidates Thread 2.0

[MedleyCane]

You guys really couldn’t have been that dumb to think Johnson would come to Miami..

You mean the same fan base that not too long ago believed Jon Gruden was going to be our HC?

 

[TRick72]

So. I should have tried to find Candle yesterday for some questions when I was in Toledo. **** it. ***** *** *****.

You only lasted one day in Toledo?? Were you there to attend @cway313 THIRD wedding??

 

[AUcane]

And we have a **** load of local guys in the recruiting and off field dept. Luke is mad ITS NOT HIM.

Yep - Roland smith, pata, dvd, pop, and I’m sure there are others.

 

[Cribby]

To **** with the fans like he’s been doing

I was told that tweet had nothing to do with what people thought. Sometimes he puts up legit hints and sometimes he’s ******* around. That’s why I don’t pay him any mind.

 

[TRick72]

I’m Guessing Thomas Brown

He would’ve NEVER gone to Joe’s Stone Crabs

 

[PIPO]

I am of the opinion the OC has been hired, I was told contract was being drafted on Thursday. Usually terms are already ironed out by that point

So @mdhhdm was correct?

 

[Josh]

I was, am, and will continue to be that dumb and I defy you to stop me.

 

[Big Q Cane]

******* brilliant

Exactly. They know how the fans get wrapped and go crazy

He’s a Miami alum who’s been with MC since MC was TE & OL’s coach on Coker’s staff.

He was with MC during his entire tenure at FIU as well, as his Director of Ops, Director of Player Personnel & Recruiting Coordinator. MC trusts him because he was with him from the ground up & was pivotal in helping him secure his best recruiting classes at FIU & landing prospects like Antwan Barnes, Anthony Gaitor, TY Hilton & Jonathan Cyprien.

He’s one of MC’s really good friends in the business & that’s why he brought him here as soon as he got the job.

didn't realize d smith is a miami alum

 

[Memnon]

Which NFL guy with a job are we now gonna fixate on to justify the timeline and try to connect dots?

Luke Getsy & Greg Olson

 

[TRick72]

At least he's likely out of a job. His HC got fired.

Ironically he’s one of two coaches on their staff that AZ has held onto their contracts and denied other NFL teams from interviewing him. They want to see who they hire and see if he fits in their staff. Very highly thought of in the organization. Don’t know how that applies to him interviewing for College jobs

 

[Cribby]

He would’ve NEVER gone to Joe’s Stone Crabs

If so he’d already be ankle deep in erect

 

[OldhamA]

He’s interviewing for NFL offensive coordinator jobs.

Yep, interviewed with the Bucs and the Panthers.

We really are sniffing around the wrong trees with this OC hire.

 

[Dulles Cane]

We need someone from the Briles coaching tree imo. Balanced enough that Mario will be happy but we'll still be able to attract high end receivers that are presently disgusted by Mario's perceived style of offense.

 

[Hoyacane1620]

Ferman now saying Candle is still a small possibility and that window has not closed yet…

Maybe all the leaks was Mario’s way of saying we have moved on to force his decision.

Who knows!

Lake and Gaby have been saying that for a couple of days. Their stance is until he or Toledo make some kind of statement that he is returning OR he is announced as going somewhere else, he is still a candidate from what they hear.

 

[Alex Del Piero]

Yep, interviewed with the Bucs and the Panthers.

We really are sniffing around the wrong trees with this OC hire.

We actually don’t sniffing around those trees, it’s all in some poster’s head.

 

[joseermonfils]

Well at least you have a take. All those negging the TOPIC (for discussion) into oblivion apparently didn't see the words 'debatable', 'if true'..and whether we agree or not, it doesn't discount the perception of the high school community (according to NAVARRO). And no one's answered the question: why the misdirection by Smith?

this is probably being created by someone who is trying to negative recruit the program it’s dumb..others have already listed all the black coaches we have currently on staff on field and off field not including Gattis and strong who just left

 

[Canes2082]

Could be Candle (or at least someone) has been hired and all these other interviews are for who he wants on his staff with him?

Good point we are assuming an OC hasn’t been hired when infact this could be for other positions to coach. I’m still sticking with my prediction of Brian Johnson and the reason it hasn’t been announced is not to distract from the Super Bowl.

If it’s him we’ll either know by late this evening or tomorrow once the game is over.
