As of yesterday or today for a lot of coaches. Give him a minute or two before you freak out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one is freaking out. Staff announcements should be starting tomorrow. He's been here for almost a week and a half, season is over, and burning time. Everything is at a stand still until hires are made. I can't imagine he was hired w/out saying who his OC/DC would be. If we're still "working contacts" and "interviewing people" then that's an awful sign. I don't that is the case, at least I hope not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"When you're going to go over 200 miles-an-hour in a car in six seconds, that thing better work, right?" Harsin said. "... We work on cars, we build cars, it takes time and people get extremely impatient. 'Do you want it done right, or do you want it right now?' That was one of his favorite lines right there. ... 'I can make it run, it's not gonna run like you want to.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texas is already making moves and their new head coach hasn't even sniffed their campus yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if that's the case, we should be able to fill out position coaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Win4AU 4,052 Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 Wonder if Seth playing yesterday is a sign that he’s coming back? I don’t really see the point in him playing otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's get it right instead of getting it done in a hurry. Recruit signing day is in February. Spring practice, if there is going to be one, won't be until March/April. He has plenty of time to line up a staff. 12 hours ago, W.E.D said: I can't imagine he was hired w/out saying who his OC/DC would be.

The portal, especially this year, is possible immediate impact players. We drag our feet for another week and that chance is gone. If we go another week with out any hires we've wasted nearly 3 weeks and BH had no plan coming in. 10 minutes ago, Mikey said: I can't imagine any scenario in which he would be able to say who his coordinators would be prior to him being hired.

Tony4AU 386 Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 Well, Harsin by himself can’t run off season workouts which are supposed to begin 1-11. And yes, the portal is moving quickly and would be nice to sign a couple guys. Also, Grant Calcaterra is still waiting on new staff to make decision but not a huge need at TE honestly.

bigbird 60,491 Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 People need to be patient. Does CBH come across as a person that doesn't have a plan? He doesn't to me. Just wait a day or so and you'll see some movement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand why we were interested in any football player that has already suffered multiple concussions. Let alone another TE. AU recruiting this guy was a puzzling decision.

If we are waiting on an NFL guy, say the DB coach in Miami... They can have an agreement and say "Yeah fire Rodney bc I've got my guy but Keep Twill and Pogue"...or whatever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weagl1 1,782 Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 I think the first recruiting CBH needs to be doing is in the locker room. It is critical he hangs onto guys like Seth and Tank. They are the game changers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gowebb11 9,314 Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 I’m very confident in coach Harsin to hire a great staff. More so than we AU Family message board posters. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we hired a coach without a specific plan as to who his staff would be then we will be terrible. That didn't happen, CBH laid out a plan on who he'd hire or at a minimum his top 2. Coach don't go into jobs without an idea of who their staff will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
