New Offensive Coordinator options?

Both Whipple and Quinn are older with head coaching experience. If it’s these guys it tells me we highly valued bringing in some experienced grizzled vets to help Frost. We all saw Frost was in over his head and these guys seem like they can try to stabilize things and take care of coaching football. This route could be safe and less friction vs. some young guy coming in at OC trying to make a name for himself.  Plus I think these guys would tell Frost when it’s not working vs the staff that owed him since he brought them over as reward from UCF. Marry Frost’s concepts with these guy’s experience.

I have no clue as to the circumstances around those other jobs.  But, they aren't programs with a ton of talent.  It's possible it took a few years to get the talent to where it needs to be.   I don't see that as a major factor here.  I still believe we have the talent to win way more games than we have.  And, we have the portal to improve that in the off season.

I agree with this. There is value in having a good mix of backgrounds and experiences on a staff. Some veteran presence could definitely help with discipline. 

Question...does Whipple call plays?

 
Whipple, 64, was the architect of college football’s third-highest scoring offense, averaging 43 points per game in his third season with the Panthers. He was also named one of 15 semifinalists for this year’s Broyles Award, given to the top assistant coach in the country.

Where I see this as a benefit is organization.  The last few years, organization we see on game day has not been where it needs to be.  If these guys are all ex head coaches, they should understand the importance of having their group organized and ready to play.
