Like the idea, think it might be too much of a reach.Tony Elliott, OC, Clemson.
UCF is a very attractive job for aspiring coaches. If we can hire Elliott, I would not expect to keep more than 2-3 years, but that is life in G5. We all know this. It needs to change, we need to fight for change, but that is the current condition.Like the idea, think it might be too much of a reach.
Wow I came in here to propose just that. I think he would be a good hire to continue the development of DG. But as well all know, a good coordinator or position coach doesn’t necessarily make a good HC. Does he have the leadership and recruiting skills?What do you think about bringing in Lebby as HC?

Didn’t he just sign a contract extension a couple of weeks ago? Hard to see him leaving for a lateral moveJeff Lebby, Tenn OC
He turned down the Tennessee jobTony Elliott, OC, Clemson.
Tennessee is toxic right now with sanctions coming. Heupel can go there and expect to win 6 games a year beating up on bad teams and he can survive a few years and make bank. There is no realistic scenario where they are good short term. If Elliot wants a truly elite job he’s not going to get it by middling at Tennessee for a few years and no longer being the hot commodity. Cut your teeth at an AAC school and you could be at a blue blood in a few years like Frost or Herman or even NFL like Rhule.He turned down the Tennessee job
Black and Gold Friday!!!
This guy has done nothing but win as a player and as a coach, I like him.As others have suggested, I also think Brian Johnson, OC, Gators, would be a good target.
As long as we are G5, it is great that we are so desired and respected.
So you are looking for big name P5 retread over an up and coming coordinator?Gus Malzahn would be a good hire. Let's get it done. He's a little older, so maybe he would just stay put here.
Also, Tom Herman. I think he was better at firing up the underdog recruits he had at Houston, than the 4 and 5-star guys at Texas.
and the wife gets to live in Winter Park. As far as the southeast goes and where most college programs are located it is one of the top places to live as a college football coachIt's a job in the 2nd tier of ALL coaching jobs, imo. Just outside the top 20-25 jobs. It will pay well, fertile recruiting grounds, good facilities, hungry fanbase, supportive community.
Just got hired as QB coach for the EaglesThis guy has done nothing but win as a player and as a coach, I like him.

I think the up and comer is not good long term for us if nobody stays more than 2-3 years. We shouldn’t be treated as a doormat and winning here should not be difficult. If we hire an up and comer the buyout for leaving another team should be huge if they leave and normal if we fire them for performance. If they don’t like it they can try and make the P-5 coaching at podunk USo you are looking for big name P5 retread over an up and coming coordinator?
Hell yes. Let’s get Kevin back here and some other players as well. We need guys tied to the program.Lebby HC. Kevin Smith OC. This is the way.
Heupel departure is the GME rush equivalent for this board.The forum had been stale for a week or 2. Today it’s been nonstop. Smelling salts.
