[Baba Yaga]

@hydro66 who do you think Mario should go after? Curious to hear the thoughts of a child prodigy.

He would like for us to **** or get off the pot and fire Gattis already

I’m not saying Candle is not in contention, I’m just saying there is at least 1 other candidate an offer and negotiations have been ongoing

Lol I’m assuming this 1 other candidate sucks?

He still thinks Gattis hasn’t been fired.

Dead serious.

I read that as we are really negotiating between two offers at the same time? Or that there are two top candidates and the negotiations are in process with the top pick?

Lol, I'm aware.

Why are we negotiating with two candidates? Maybe my simple brain doesn’t comprehend this, but don’t you normally you have target #1 and you negotiate with him…then if it doesn’t work, you go to #2?

 

[Mr. Dynasty1]

I’ve been deemed a Moper and even I know Mario isn’t that stupid to hire Nuss

Surprised BYU OC Aaron Roderick isn't talked about a lot as a possible candidate. He just developed 2 QBs that are NFL guys in Zach Wilson and Jarren Hall

Lol, no.
The OC that was at BYU with Zach Wilson is Jeff Grimes and Grimes is now at Baylor.

Candle played WR at Mount Union and Geneva. After graduating, Candle stayed on at Mount Union and joined the coaching staff as the wide receivers coach, a job he held from 2003–2006. Similar trajectory at Toledo before winning two conference titles in 7 full seasons of coaching.

Frost played QB under Bill Walsh (Stanford) before Tom Osborne (Nebraska), beating Peyton Manning on the way to NC with Nebraska. Coached WR for 4 seasons at Oregon before becoming OC/QB coach. Moved on to UCF after they went 0-12 in 2015 and two season later in 2017, the Knights stormed through the regular season, finishing 11–0. They won the AAC championship game 62–55 in double overtime at home against Memphis for their 12th consecutive win. Frost led the Knights into the 2018 Peach Bowl, the school's second-ever appearance in a major bowl. In that game, they defeated 7th ranked Auburn, completing the first undefeated and untied season in school history.

One played WR and one QB; both ace recruiters won championships as players and conference titles as coaches. Let Frost coach QB and call plays while Candle coaches WR and split the OC title.

Grimes is a OL guy... Sure he called the plays but Roderick was the one working with the QBs. When Jarren Hall took over he had 57 Total TDs 11 INTs in 2 seasons while completing 65% of his passes and their offense still ate with Roderick calling plays

I would guess because the likelihood of him leaving the state of Utah is pretty slim.

Grimes is an OL/TE specialist, Roderick definitely was/is the QB developer & PGC at BYU before he became the OC.
