Starting to see some chatter of Helfrich to LSU as OC. That would be interesting to say the least

FWIW with Wilson going to Bama I doubt it. We already have Sark, and hiring a guy that abused players and suppressed injury reports is a bit beyond hiring a jackass/a drunk. Thanks in advance to the guy that links me a bleacher report article about medical greyshirts and over-signing.

And how much of his HC years involved Scott Frost doing things? They really need to talk to Lincoln Riley or Sterlin Gilbert, much better track record than Helfrich has. Maybe Rhett Lashlee, but that might not be "marquee" enough for LSU?

FB Scoops posted:USF: South Florida has “zeroed in” on Charlie Strong and a decision could come soon, according to a report from Roy Cummings. Cummings adds that “USF is acting quickly to have him in place and contacting / reassuring recruits this weekend before the ‘dead period’ begins next week.” Cummings adds that Strong could come on the cheap, leaving Texas on the hook for the majority of his buyout.

Oh man that's a pretty perfect landing spot for Strong. Glad to see him landing an HC gig in Florida right away. I guess if it's true that Miami would've taken him last year that might've been better, but maybe not. He's not young, but if he can do well at USF there's a chance the Florida job could come open before he's too old to take it.

How do you look at this coaching marketplace and decide the best you can do is Luke loving Fickell, come on, Cincinnati. E: and same with Applewhite, really. That seems like some dumb rich boosters falling in love with Applewhite's dumb cowboy name and the mythology that's built up around his UT career.

Henchman of Santa posted:lol "who could we get that employs the exact opposite approach of what's worked for us since we moved up?" Taggart was running the Harbaugh/Stanford power running offense when he was at WKU so this isn't totally true, but yeah I'd think they'd want to stick with something closer to what Petrino and Brohm did since that took them to an even higher level. Just hire Brian Brohm, he was always the best Brohm anyway.

Yeah even if Oregon's going to be throwing around the big money they've rumored, I think Strong ultimately would rather still be a HC then go back to being a coordinator. He'd be a hell of a DC out there though.

It's going to be interesting on what type of offense he will deploy out there. I know he had to tailor his offense around his QB due to him being more of an athlete then being a true QB.

YES PLEASE TAKE HIM AND TAKE TIM BECK AWAY TOO Dear god if WKU actually bails Urban out of his ridiculous playcalling arrangement at present they will be my new favorite G5 team. I don't know who actually looks at the OSU offense this season and says "yes please" outside of like the Nebraska/BG/Oklahoma games. Warriner is a really nice dude, and he's a Kentucky native, but he runs the Scuba Steve spread in the single most maddening way possible. It's like we took the old Bollman playcall sheet and ran it from the gun. In UC news, I would be super happy if Luke Fickell finally gets a shot somewhere, even though he's done that weird Mike Bobo thing where he became competent when no one was looking/after having his ego destroyed by Chris Ash for 2 years. However, if he brings Kerry Coombs to UC, I'm going to be really goddamn angry because Coombs is my favorite position coach we've ever had. Dude's close to retirement age and still insists on working out with the DBs every day. He could keep a lot of Cincinnati guys home, which I would not be particularly happy about since Urban's gotten an absurd amount of talent out of the Cincy-Dayton corridor. All that said, UC is a total wild card right now. The university is on an interim-interim president, and the board is not likely going to approve anything too splashy by the AD right now after the Big 12 bid blew up in their face and Tuberville flamed out, especially now that they're having to replace at least 2-3 top Uni officials as well.

What the gently caress happened to their recruiting? As long as Taggart goes after the smaller fast guys from LA like Chip did in the past then I think Oregon will be ok.

DJExile posted:Kerry Coombs was at UC with Brian Kelly and I wouldn't be that surprised to see him go back. He still has a house down here, and it's likely he would be promoted to UC's DC if he comes down. He's still really well like from his days at Colerain and the like, so he honestly might be a bigger coup than Fickell for them. Both are fantastic recruiters, but Coombs is exactly what that program needs right now. If that's the case and Warriner is in play, Urban's potentially replacing three assistants, maybe more if Schiano goes somewhere. Like, it could literally turn into: OC/QB: Tim Beck (ugh) OC/TE: Vacant OL: Greg Studrawa (ugh) WR: Zach Smith (who is frankly employed almost entirely for his recruiting ability) RB: Tony Alford (See Smith, Zach) DC/Safeties: Vacant DC/LBs: Vacant D-Line: Larry Johnson (The best technical assistant we've ever had) CBs: Vacant Is that the most vacancies ever created off an existing staff, or am I crazy?
