The NEXT Coach

[jdcatty]

May be but that's a terrible look.

Why?  Lane can say well, I looked at all those places that say they are so much better, and here I am. Still in Oxford.

Wow, what must that have been before the LSU game.

Oooooohhhh boy...

Wait until Ole Miss gets their guy before we do

Wait until we decide we're hiring _______ and then ________ suddenly shows up at the Mississippi press conference as head coach.

That just seems like an awful fit.

I just saw Eric Morris.  UNT is good this year but that looks like it could blow up as bad as the first Morris.  He had four seasons at Incarnate Word where he went 6-5,5-7,3-3, and 10-3.  In his three seasons at UNT he has gone 5-7,6-7, and 9-1 so far this year.  He was a GA at Houston, Wide Receivers coach at Washington State, and OC at Texas Tech for three years.  He has no SEC experience in any capacity and his head coaching record is pretty unexceptional except for two nice seasons.

I'm starting to come around on the James Madison guy.  If we're swinging for the fences with an up and comer, I like his resume better than the others.

I agree wholeheartedly.

I'd bet we end up with Morris.

If there isn't a candidate that clearly stands out, I hope we choose the guy who has the highest ceiling. If it's Fitzgerald, Petrino, pool of G5 coaches, and possibly Gruden, who has the highest ceiling?

I tend to lean Petrino, then Gruden. Although Gruden probably is the biggest risk. It's hard to see a ceiling for a G5 coach that has never coached at this level. It's a crapshoot with those guys.

It's the Arkansas way.

CBS says he's probably going to UCLA.

CBS says he's probably going to UCLA.

CSB says his presidency faced a significant setback during the War of 1812 when British forces invaded Washington, D.C., and burned down important government buildings, including the White House and the Capitol.

He will probably end up at Penn State.

Is his wife's name Dolly too?

[buff2.0]

He will probably end up at Penn State.

I seriously doubt we reached out to any candidates and tried to present ourselves as a serious program when we were the only opening.

[Borenutz]

CBS says he's probably going to UCLA.

I could see Brian Kelley going there.  I really insight other than he seems like more their type than LSU ever was. Also see the JMU guy going to pedo. Probably going to be wrong on both accounts. Hope we hire the jmu guy.

[Son of Spam]

If we end up with a coach named Morris, I am going to puke. I still have PTSD from the last one. If we end up with him, we should make him change his last name.

[Cardiac Hog]

As Michael Bolton said in Office Space: "Why should I change my name? He's the one who sucks."
