Heupel just scares me because of Mackenzie Milton and having a really talented team in place. I want to see how he does without him specifically because IMO he is the most valuable player to any 1 team in the country. I remember when Oklahoma fans wanted him to be run out of town year after year when he was their OC so that def is stuck in my head firmly. Has beamer ever been a serious candidate to take over anywhere as a Head Coach? Genuinely asking. I dunno. I know the least about him out of anyone on your list.

It would never not be entertaining. What the heck has that guy been up to since he was canned as Head Coach of the Niners? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I remember, that stint at OU was more about friction with Jay Norvell then ability. As far as being a serious candidate? I'm not sure.

Obviously I knew who his pops was and who he was. Just curious as to why he had never been a coordinator and called plays yet because he is a guy who is always coveted.

I’d imagine two younger guys like that would be fun as all get out and even better on the recruiting trail. Could probably get both of them for what we’re paying Gus.

He is a great defensive back coach but it seems that is where it stops. He has never even been a coordinator at any level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has never even been a coordinator at any level. JMO, I guess. I loved Dom Capers defensive schemes. He always was always very multiple (3-4, 4-3, 3-3, 2-5, 50, Eagle) and loved to zone blitz. JWj spent 9 years as one if his assistants and was a candidate to replace him as DC when Capers was fired. The Green Bay secondary, as injury plagued as it's been, has always been good and JWj is consistently churning out good young DBs. I think he has the pedigree, as well as the OJT at the highest level. In coaching, you don't remain at a job if you aren't productive. He also worked under Bobby Petrino(the good version) and Mike Zimmer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AU80cruiser 1,102 Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 I want Joe Whitt Jr for DC and Hugh Freeze as the OC and a head coach with enough experience that both of those guys admire his accomplishments as a football coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could end up working horribly because he is a 35 year old coach who has never been a Head Coach and has only called plays for 2 seasons. BUT it also could end up working amazingly with whoever hires him as their Head Coach. It is a risk but he is a lot better option than some of these MEH candidates I see. This his 4th year as OC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was more them getting after Stoops also. They had QB injuries that impacted the offense and some friction with Norvell it appears from Birds knowledge.. If you look though, their defense was worse than their offense and it came down to either Heupel/Norvell or Brother Stoops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chip Kelly, although not nearly as bad in terms of NCAA mess, had no problem hopping right back in the saddle. Same for us and Bruce Pearl. I'm going to strongly object to the bolded sentence. What Bruce Pearl did was make what would have amounted to minor infractions into majors ones by lying about them. The underlying rules that were broken were minor (Like the cookout at his house) I just don't see including Pearl here as appropriate. Not really similar.

He should've been hired...JJ had a chance to allow a program defining hire and choked. Ever wonder why Stidham signed with us? He was told KB was going to be his OC again. When JJ balked, Gus had to fly to Waco and have a sit down with JS. Art and KB were there to help smooth things over with JS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not wish being shackled and handcuffed on Baby Briles and have it derail his career like that. Because it absolutely would if he were to work under Gus. Defensive Coordinator under Gus? GREAT! Do your thing. DO whatever you want. Gus is hands off. Offensive side of the ball? yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesh. Enough said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
