Who should our next HC be?

Here is an Idea.  Hire Vance Joseph, current DC for Az Cardinals and former HC at Denver Broncos, as HC and he assumes duties as DC.  He retains MJ as Asst Head Coach/Passing Game Coordinator/Recruiting Coordinator or even OC.  VJ also brings in brother Sammy Joseph as Stength and Conditioning.  Hires BB as Co DC/ST Coordinator.

I like what Applewhite has done with the running backs so far and seems to be a good recruiter, so I wouldnt mind him sticking around,  and Beckton also

I said similar a couple weeks ago, but I thought Mickey as HC and Vance as DC.

 
Mickey’s resume wouldn’t get him hired as head janitor at most schools, much less as a head coach. Trev could say hold my beer. I hope that is not the case. I’ve learned to never say never, though.

Based on what? Love the guy but what makes you say that if you look at the resume. We beat atrocious teams and just lost to a team that got boat raced by an interim coach.

Indiana and Rutgers wouldn’t reach a bowl playing in the MAC. Nothing about those wins were quality. If anything, it felt like downing multiple margaritas in one sitting. It feels great, but it’s absolutely nothing to brag about.

Mickey could be that CEO.

Yes, you are correct, he could be that. However, he has no experience doing that, other than his current interim head coaching position. If I am Trev, I would rather entrust this program rebuild to a coach who has been a head coach and ran a program from the top level before.

If you are not retaining MJ you basically cancelled yourself as a candidate.

When Frost fired four offensive assistants last year, Trev went on record saying he didn't mandate that Frost fire anyone. He also said it was the head coach's job to have a vision and execute the strategy for it.

That doesn't sound like the kind of guy who's going to sit across from a candidate and mandate he retain a previous coach, regardless of how good any of us think that coach is or isn't. Unless, of course, Trev is manipulative and/or a liar.

Then they must have the next hire already set because recruits are saying he will be back. Check the presser yesterday for Coleman.

What Coleman said doesn't mean anything to me. Was Frost out on the recruiting trail last year telling recruits 'well, you know, I may not be back next year or even survive the whole season’? Do you think any coach on a hot seat does that? Highly, highly unlikely. Frost or any coach in that situation would've sold themselves as a head coach for the future alongside a long term vision for the player.

That's probably exactly what Mickey is doing, as well. You lock the kid down and get him to commit. Then, you deal with retention down the road if you have to. Recruits aren't going to commit somewhere if they're confident that coach is going to be gone, and coaches aren't going to sit there and tell the kid the may be gone, either. The latter would be incredibly moronic.

That’s the problem right, Scotty wasn’t recruiting anyone that’s why our best players are transfers. So no I don’t think Scotty told them anything because he wasn’t there  :D
