Yes I agree. But I think he could do well here as well. What GT has got - we got better :snacks: Ok maybe not the recruiting base but in NIL to offset it.

Kansas is not that impressive. I do not understand why people were so enamored with Leipold. NU would beat KU right now and that is saying something. The last thing this program needs is another all offense, no defense coach. KU's schedule was soft and even a mediocre Oklahoma team was able to expose them. I simply get too much Mike Riley vibes from Leipold.

I don't have compelling speculation they're both in play and nobody has compelling speculation they're not. That's my point. Just because a couple guys on here who don't want them say "we're not hiring them so let's not even talk about them" doesn't make it true.
I'll give you that Urban's name has cooled in the media in the last month, but Deion's name is still being talked about. Quick google has a handful of articles just in the last few days and as recently as today. One "writer" still has Deion in his top 7, so yeah, I'd say he's still being talked about outside of here.

But why would he be interested in a OC position? Coach in waiting? Yes, he has a good system and as Tom proved, if you have the right guys in the system, the system will work when executed well by DEVELOPED players - even in the B1G.

Not sure I agree with you. If only there were a common opponent to provide an indication....

As much as i want to say recruiting is a problem i dont think its as difficult as you make it seem. True college athletes want to go someplace they can showcase there talents and get there talent improved on so that can get drafted. Alot of those guys want to make it to the next level so they will go wherever that will take them. If this is the case then why isn't hawaii university ranked in the top 25 every year playing for new year 6 bowls. People want to go where there talent will be used and exposed so they can pump up there draft stock and make it to the next level. That is why a high profile coach would bring higher profile people here. The so called splash hire if you will.

I'd like him as a HC tbh. Think he'd be great. has won at every stop and worked his way up through the college ranks. My comment was more in line if folks don't think he's "ready" then maybe they'd feel better as OC. He will get a P5 option. I'd be happy if it was from us. A modernized version of what I think TO would have progressed into. Imagine AG and AJ on the field at the same time, every time....A mobile QB.....

This will be the only Sanders we'll pull in. Just saying.

I think that we have 3 categories of perspective coaches. Based on peoples wishes/opinions they can be moved up or down in each category. Good, better, best. My concern is we end up with a guy that's not even "good".

Yes, I agree. Tom would have changed wt the times. I think Frost was merging Fast Oregon with Nebraska Power but he ended up with something not very fast and no power. Grant, Allen and a good mobile QB plus a TE like Fidone (sp?) and Trey Palmer on the outside to keep the D honest - a great combo. Imagine Frazier wt a receiver like Palmer - that fake triple option pull back to pass would be deadly wt a good WR who wasn't a glorified blocker. Of course, we'd want a passer better than Frazier but you get the idea.

As the late, great, Cornel Sanders once said, I'm too drunk to taste this chicken.
