Although KB may be a legitimate candidate I wasn't calling for him to be the OC.
How about the OC from Tulane?

Kerwin Bell runs an offense out of traditional "Pro Set" formations, he wouldn't be a fit at tall. The Frost Oregon Offense has more similarities despite being different
Anybody have ideas of OC candidates that could fit our offense, are a good coach, and can recruit FL?
David Kelly still available?
You win Sir! Just spit bourbon all over my phone!
Maybe he just promotes Elarbee. He was elevated to Assistant Head Coach of Offense/Offensive Line for 2019 (from just OL in 2018), whatever that means but he must have changed his title for some reason. It isn't sexy but it keeps continuity. I agree we then need to find someone that can recruit.
The difference is UCF doesn't OWN these recruits. They essentially sign a non-binding agreement with the school and are able to do as they please. Simple as that.
I think recruiting should be the top skillset in the next candidate. CJH can teach him the OC side.
this could be why Briles hasn't been named anywhere yet......
“One thing to consider to go along with this is Briles and offensive line coach Randy Clements are widely regarded as packaged deal, as the two have worked together previously at a number of stops including Baylor, Houston, and Florida State,” Doug Samuels wrote. “The potential for that pairing will impact the layout of Lane’s staff at Ole Miss.”
Weird, FSUs O-line was giving up 6 sacks a game.
Actually FSU has had O-line issues since Francois was there running for his life every play.

Ole miss visit coming up too. Was lebby recruiting for them while with us? Shitty time for him to leave before early signing

That's how it goes and will always go. We just need to do the same and make another smart hire

The program out there isn't exactly 'disciplined' right now.

It literally seems like every few days, it's getting worse.
I’m still hoping that he comes back as a player in some capacity. He working towards that. I think that he could make a great coach or OC someday, but now, he’s just too young.
Yes. Since you can't pay KZ, might as well hire another coach.
Good article on possible moves by Heup...

Well, with that article, now I know for certain Beckton chose to leave, was offered a position and left, so chose possible better career over UCF. That seems an obvious choice that many if not all would make, but I don't want to hear him "bleeding black and gold" because that is not the fact. He chose career over UCF (again an obvious choice, just don't tell me how devoted to UCF he is). I'd rather wait 5-10 years till I hear that name and UCF in the same sentence. Plus, just do a web search on him, I am still mystified why no one other than UCF and neb. ever talks about him. Being an complete UCF homer (ignoring his abandonment of UCF) it really concerns me that he never advanced beyond the level he's been at for decades. Meanwhile, Mario Crystabol who is loved by some on here and is about the same age, has been a HC twice, while Beckton's years as even an OC- 0.

(don't really want it to be another hate on all ex-frost UCF staff, but, didn't know Beckton chose to leave).

Beckton’s (he can come back to UCF whenever he wants) legacy is tarnished somewhat IMO. There was at least one interview over there that wasn’t exactly warm and fuzzy. Additionally, there are rumors that he tried to contact Otis and Snelson. He’s an ex-UCF coach. Someone like Kevin Smith is a different situation. I’ll leave it at that.
I agree 100%, but I’m surprised that some of our more vocal fanbase hasn’t slayed you for your statement. Maybe reality has checked in.
I posted my comment fully expecting to get torched by them, as I did the last time I shared my opinion on recruiting. Having said that, my stomach is turning at the fact that nobody is jumping at the chance to fill Lebby's shoes and we have transfer portal and decommitment issues. I'm trying to ignore it all and wait until the first signing period is over before I panic.
Your stomach is turning because 19 year old kids who are 5th or 6th on the depth chart are entering the transfer portal? I think you forgot to include the *
Thank God one of the Sages of UCF has showed up to pluck from my despair. Took longer than I expected.

Recruiting is going to remain a source of frustration as long as we remain in the AAC. No matter what our success is, our battle will be uphill, even against the lower level SEC teams. Losing a coach to these teams is going to mean recruits jumping ship.
Is the offensive coordinator position at UCF a coveted one with an involved coach like Heup? Seems to me that many would like a position where they get more freedom. Lebby as OC always seemed to be more of a title than a reality. He was a great recruiter and good guy. Just not sure he was much in the way of real OC
