New Staff Selection

I would think the next OC - if he is actually going to the in charge of the offense (scheme, play calls, recruiting, game planning, strategy, etc) would want to have some say in who, what when where and how the new offense is assembled and implemented.  Therefore, presumably, the OC is already known but not yet revealed, for any number of reasons.

Yes and Joseph brings some major credibility since he coached the 2019 LSU receiving core. Recruiting many of them. So pretty hard to say anyone else in the country has recruited better than Joseph or sent more receivers to the NFL than him the last few years. Also look how good they are all doing in the NFL as well. Ready to make an impact as soon as they hit the league.

 With all of the activity out there in the portal and coach changes, seems like sooner (no pun intended) would be better than later.

And until the Athletic Dept actually announces something, it’s all just gossip, rumors and speculations.  Sometimes, these types of “leaks” are just negotiations, trial balloons, etc.

You guys are all overhyping this conference realignment having a direct impact on the progrums success.  Literally all of the teams that have realigned were already middling to subpar programs in their old conference- its not like conference heavy weights/title contender changed conferences and saw a big dip.  If anything A&M has raised their profile from a change in scenery

Overhyping? I don’t recall any P5 school winning a conference title yet, let alone playing for a national title. We were a conference title contender switching, Missouri played for the SEC title their second year, Colorado made a splash too. 
 

To say conference realignment doesn’t affect program success is ignorant at best.

No, because oklahoma in the Big12 is significantly better and more consistent compared to where we were in the big12 prior to leaving.

True but they are also heading to the best conference in college football. The SEC is drastically different landscape than the big 12. You will be expected to be physical on BOTH sides of the ball. Cant just play offense in the SEC.

I never said conf realignment doesnt affect progrum success.  I think you comparing missouri, colorado and our profile in the 08-2010 range to Oklahoma the past few years is ignorant at best.

Oklahoma= consistent top 5/top 10 in a down year, multiple playoff participant and conf champ most years.

Nebraska 09= Conf title contender? I mean sure, we made it to the big 12 title game but we were 10-4, let's not pretend we even came close to walking into conf title season with 1 or 2 losses at most.

Missouri has trended in the SEC to pretty much what they were in the big 12.  A middling progrum that is towards the bottom most years and happened to have one year where things came together coupled with a weak division.

Colorado- Was trending pretty abysmally towards the end of the big 12 run and, for the most part, has been an afterthought in CFB for a decade now.

Literally none of the 3 progrums u mentioned, including us, are remotely similar to the track record Oklahoma has brought to the table in the past 5-20 years.

Lol we played for the Big 12 title in the two years before we left and played in the Big Ten title game in year two. Please stop.

Ah yes, because going 10-4 and playing in the weakest division at the time puts us on the same level  both in the big 12 and then the big 10 puts us on Oklahoma's level.  You should really take off those husker shaded lens of yours, theyre turning you blind.

I agree on all that.  I think they'll adjust just fine tho, will still get those texas recruits in their backyard and now have access to SEC recruits that they'll play in more often.  They definitely need to adjust a bit, but some posters on here calling for oklahoma to trend towards a .500 program at best is comical.

 
SF specifically said he was more than likely going to hire an OC before staff for the reasons stated.  Does this mean his OC has been hired and not announced due to still playing?

We're going to end up with a ST analyst again, aren't we?

No, the next ST coach will be titled that although he may also be a position coach as well.  Or, more likely Frost splits special teams into two areas (maybe offense - punts and KO returns and place kicking) vs defense (punt returns, kick offs, kick blocks, onsides, etc).  This makes some sense IF he can’t bring himself to admit he has totally f-ed up by ignoring special teams coaching at a serious level for FOUR years.
