I think the issue is

  1. Candidates see how bad McCue is and see that no progress was made in Bronco’s 6 years.
  2. A lot of these candidates don’t have prior head coaching experience. They see Bronco making $4 million a year and want that money, even though Bronco had the experience to warrant the payout.

What Im also saying is that Blake Anderson’s salary at Utah state is $1 million and we can triple that suck and use 500k on assistant bonuses and 500k bonus to DC salary on Pointdexter.

Would be nice to keep that Mormon recruiting pipeline going.

He ain’t mormon. But he runs a similar spread offense to Anae which I could get behind. When he was UNC’s OC they were averaging 450 yards a game over those seasons.

Why on earth would Gattis come here

Feldman’s twitter comment… UVA may not be the job Elliott wants to leave Clemson for (which… you know, that’s fair), but that’d cast doubt on UVA being the job that Gattis wants to leave Michigan for, right? If our facilities turned off Elliott, I guarantee you that Gattis won’t be any more impressed.

Huff or Anderson might not mind, though.

I retract my “not a sh** show” comments. Can’t we Potemkin village the facilities when the next coaching candidate comes in to take a peek? Do something wacky with VR glasses?

This coaching search is like UVA basketball 2021 recruiting.

Keels Kaufman Reid Furst Sochan Warley, and then not even considering solid options we could get like Deebo Coleman, DaRon Holmes, Ben Gregg

No idea, although I would consider that a borderline home run (ignoring the 2 PR fumbles) and Jacquie from 247 has consistently had him on her list of potential hires.

What do you think the odds are we get rejected/run into snags with a few more candidates? Then at the end of next week we announce our new HC:

Dex!

He was his own smokescreen.

Dying laughing. I had the exact same thought and was playing out the Monty Python-esque scene in my head.

So, I guess that’s good.

On the other hand, CTB still hasn’t turned UCLA down yet.

Sigh. Now I’m sad we didn’t put together a betting pool on this. It could have really gone places.

Spin Zone: this ends up like the UCLA basketball coaching situation, where they offered and got turned down by half a dozen guys before a guy they didn’t really want in Cronin comes out and kills it

Mick Cronin! I’m in! :wink:

Who will be our next head coach?

  • Josh Gattis
  • Charles Huff
  • Jeff Monken
  • Al Golden (there was a flight to Cincy and it ain’t Fickell LOL)
  • Tony Elliot (the flight back is to get his things)
  • Pointdexter (Change of mind)
  • Brady Hoke (rumored secret G5 candidate)
  • Blake Anderson (the actual G5 coach we should be targeting)
  • Beck or Hagans promoted as interim and we hire next season
