bigbird 60,441 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 I have worked with Longo a few times the past couple years. He is a good guy and is a good pick up for OM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OM fans seem to hate this hire though, seem to think it kills their chances with Akers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbird 60,441 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Scot Sloan from App st. would be a good pick up. Don't know if he would ever get a call, but he's a good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gowebb11 9,313 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Al Pogue at Troy has a very good resume. Might be a good choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUBwins 10,069 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Seriously, I trust Steele and Malzahn to find a good quality DB coach. I actually trust CGM more on the defensive hires than the offensive side. I know he won't meddle there and most likely trust Steele's recommendation.

Agree...and assistant coaches come and go all the time. If he gets the job I'm happy for him making progress in his profession. There are probably some pretty good teachers out there who would welcome a chance to coach at a top contender like AU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because our guys aren't rated high on sites don't mean they are not elite. McGriff has proven himself as a coach and feels our DB commits are elite.

weagl1 1,782 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 I don't know who we get but the play in the secondary this year was the best I have seen in a long time. I was hoping we could keep the staff intact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troy was one of the worst pass defense teams in college football. Since Pogue got there he has taken them from the 120s in pass D to top 30 and Top 25 the last 2 years. Plus he knows the recruiting area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellitor 33,076 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Corey Raymond is the other early name on the board. LSU is only paying him $360 k right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. He was a position coach here and soon to be the DC at another school. No point in him staying when he has a lot more work to do for Ole Miss.

Why wouldn't McGriff stay through Jan 2? Still has plenty of time to get moved to Ol' Piss. Plus doesn't the dead period go into Jan. What is he going to really achieve at OM in that time? Not saying you are wrong E. That just seems wrong to me. Seems like to me he should fulfill his commitment to AU before bailing. But I feel that way for any of the coaches with a new job. You are not done with your current job until their season is done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pogue is close to CGM as a former AU staffer, and has now proven himself as a DB coach. Definitely worth considering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
