Official The OC Candidates Thread 2.0

[jackedaround]

i figured it out. Mario is the new OC.

 

[TRick72]

If so he’d already be ankle deep in erect

Seafood on South Beach???

 

[canefan96]

That’s been the plan around Eagles circles for a week now.

So stupid for people to really think he was an option here, similar to the Kliff nonsense.

 

[Caned Peach]

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

 

[TRick72]

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.

Brian Johnson??

 

[Cane6]

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.

Great answer, thanks for sharing those details

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.

Me as well. I literally posted my odds when asked and had Candle as still the favorite, with other then Dawson as next. Until I hear it’s dead I’m leaning that way.

You must have missed this.

 

[Cane Tankerous]

I'm hoping the Eagles get shut out (won't happen)... so the the oc coordinator doesn't get the colt job, and Johnson doest get o.c. in Philadelphia.

 

[CaneThang2020]

Any word on LB coach?

 

[Dulles Cane]

From a high level view, Jason Candle is a B hire. Not an offensive wizard that's going to blow anyone away but a capable, competent OC. He'd likely be here at least 2-3 years and give the offense some stability and continuity, which it desperately needs. TVD would certainly do better than he did with Gattis.

The added bonus is that a long time former HC could help Mario with some broader game management which he still struggles with. As a canes program, we should be satisfied if it proves to be him.

I would say you haven’t lived if you haven’t had a Tomcat in your life that hurt you and that you’ve had a good time with.

But sounds like you haven’t saddled up since her so you need to get back on that horse.

Whatever the average age on this board is, probably older, dating has gotten worse.

As in, a lot worse.

 

[KANE]

I think the better question is why would a staffer breadcrumb us in that direction?

Maybe his bread crumbs was leading in a DIFFERENT direction, but it was interpreted wrong…. and some here just ran wit it .

 

[Cane18]

Maybe Mario can call the plays until Candle decides to come in a year or two

 

[Memnon]

Lmao...

I love being a Miami fan, we’re all insane

 

[Canes2082]

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

You must have missed this.

Yep there that goes… oh well I took a guess. Wouldn’t be the first time I’m wrong

 

[Canes2082]

So stupid for people to really think he was an option here, similar to the Kliff nonsense.

Anyone can be an option until there not anymore..

 

[Josh]

Yep there that goes… oh well I took a guess. Wouldn’t be the first time I’m wrong

Think we’re all just ready for this to be over one way or another

 

[Tony4Canes]

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

Actually live in OH and my sister lives in MI so good point to meet up about half way.

 

[Canes2082]

Brian Johnson??

Yep I was wrong oh well…
