Official The OC Candidates Thread 2.0

How about tom Herman

I would take that swinging fool in a NY minute. On a more realistic note, didn’t Applewhite fall from grace because of behavioral issues (chasing tail)? I remember this board was going crazy over him when Enos was hired.

They haven’t known since November that they’d have an OC opening…

I can give you that one

 

[JamesQuall]

Candle is in the wind.
























(pun guy coming for me in 3, 2, 1...)

 

[hoops156]

If that indeed ends up being the hire, they'll need an entire board dedicated to kissing Mario's ***.

I just don't see a guy with legit NFL OC opportunities taking a college job

hes not turning down the eagles gig.

 

[Cryptical Envelopment]

Thanks, I can sleep now.

 

[hoops156]

I am going with Liam Coen.

hes going to UK. https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/liam-coen-returns-kentucky-football-174618511.html

 

[hoops156]

You never know, if he comes here and has success he may even be able to parlay that into an NFL OC job

haha

DBC has been a menace on twitter lately

 

[hoops156]

It's not that I want him to be the guy. It's just the only thing that would make sense to me.

But, anyways, I haven't been tracking this, how sure are we that Johnson is getting the OC gig if the OC goes to the Colts?

lol the OC is the colts HC and we are 100 percent sure the eagles are making Brian JOhnson their OC. it got reported all over by the NFL guys yesterday. the ravens also requested to interview him for their OC opening. mario and miami dont carry the weight for a guy to turn down NFL OC gigs to become a midtier college OC

Applewhite wouldn't be that bad. It's a C- hire but that's mainly due to name. The biggest thing I want to know is what happened to the guy? He goes 8-4 as HC the year Deriq King has 50TDs while Houston has one of the most explosive offenses in college football and gets fired, after that the best job he could get for the next couple of years is OC at South Alabama? Definitely seems like something happened behind the scenes

I agree. Not a **** hire and I can see why people would say "3 months for this"? But he is competent and experienced as a play caller and played the position at a high level. Just get the dudes that play on offense more than anything.

 

[L A M P]

Really hoping for a win here. Earn that paycheck, Coach!

 

[P-Tizzle]

Still hearing it’s Scott Frost.

 

[hoops156]

I’d much rather have a young , up and comer over that guy.

it was a bad hire when manny floated it to insiders as a fake rumor and its a bad hire now

 

[Wake_Cane]

Holy stupid of takes lol c’mon man.

I’m sorry but he doesn’t give a flying f^ck what Wake Cane or anyone else on Twitter or a message board cares for. Stop letting your emotions get out of hand, it’s not personal.

Look with all due respect you are quite wrong. I am not guessing or shooting from the hip here. The University of Miami pays me to be an expert on this stuff. Strategically managing and leveraging public perception is a vital element to any serious business strategy and the football program devotes substantial resources to those efforts accordingly.

so if its a fired former HC. why the hold up? frost hasnt worked since midseason

Re: Applewhite . . . I understand he's not a "hot" commodity any longer. Go back a few years and this board would have jumped up and down with the hire. However, the problem is when you hire a hot commodity, typically they tend to be folks with lesser experience/history (see, for example, Brady, Gattis). I can see why Mario would shy away from that type of hire and instead hire a known commodity (good or bad).

Anyways, I just want a professional at this point. I care less about style of offense or trends.

This. I’m good with Applewhite, if he’s in the discussion. I just want to hire someone In enough time so kids can digest the new offense before spring football.

 

[CaneFanWNY]

Can we just hire a passenger from one of them shot down UFOs at this point

 

[hoops156]

i think we severely underestimated marios network of coaches

 

[Caned Peach]

It didn't really look like we had one last season either

That was the subtle reference I was making LoL

You forgot I was a troll. Thank you, I think.
