aucanucktiger 1,794 Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Mike Reed (Clemson). Now hold on, hear me out - I do not think Mike is interested in a HC position yet and don't see it taking a Dabo departure for him to come to the Plains. For his history and recent success, he's grossly underpaid. With a healthy raise and a title like co-defensive coordinator or even assistant head coach, he may entertain the thought. Upside, he's actually an upgrade IMO from the terrific crime dog. Downside - lots of recruiting time gone waiting to announce our new coach, plus he would probably be another one & done secondary coach (which frankly I don't see as a horrible thing with rising-star position coaches).

Well you know the other big one was BMatt saying Troop pushed Evans to Bama after AU fired him but you have shot that one down before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way that happened. Evans was a set up once Bama got a hold of him. He was a pawn in their plan to make us look bad two years in a row. It was also payback from the Dad. Back to the coach though, I'll bet Coach Steele already has someone in mind for this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WDEfromTN 2 Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Any thoughts that they may be waiting until the NFL season is over before interviewing for DB coaches? Everyone seems to want someone with NFL and CFB experience, so why wouldn't they wait until NFL regular season is "officially" over, before beginning talks.

auburn4ever 1,266 Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 I know this sounds crazy and it won't happen, but I'd like to have Gene as our DB coach. But like I said, I know that won't happen. I watched James Madison and NDS last week, I think Gus needs to get in touch with the DB coach at James Madison.

Then you've lost any time to recruit before signing day. The best bet is to get someone on the recruiting trail asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that is a reasonable approach, however, i don't think Gus thinks that way (i know it's CKS's decision) he is way too cautious and deliberate for that kind of decision. He would wait until February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oracle79 3,569 Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 I would hope they have already contacted whoever they are considering, and have the decision made and are waiting for the appropriate time to announce it. But I'm always over optimistic about that kind of stuff. I'm sure we'll build up whomever they hire to be one of the best recruiters and developers of talent in football, until they aren't.

Eagle Eye 7 2,535 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Anyone know anything on Galen Scott or Brian Mitchell at VT. They both came up from Memphis last year after the bowl game against us where they got 3 picks. They did well at Memphis and VT was a top 20 in pass defense this year. Neither is highly paid. Galen has an asst. HC title . WDE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
