    A very good hire for Oregon. He will get more $$$ in the short term but if Fran Brown has another good year at Cuse he’s going to get a much bigger job in 26. A guy to definitely keep an eye. I was hoping Billy would poach his OC :(

    Wait a minute. He’s been at multiple schools the last 5 years like Harris.

    I liked what Harris did in his short stint. Hopefully we like the new guy as much.

    I’m sure he’ll be fine. Just thought it was a dumb take to bring up about Harris moving around a lot. Some guys will count that as negative for the guy leaving but a positive for the guy coming in. The O&B glasses are permanently stuck on some peoples heads.

    We cannot afford to give away another game like the Tennessee game last year because we don't have a proper special teams coach. That coaching position has to be taken seriously by our HB coach.

    Lol... "full-on" coaches... So... northern.

    Yes, full-time coaches... more please.

    AKA... I asked this question about two weeks ago in another thread. So now we know. I think coaches that are actively involved with recruiting should be limited. 11... 12... 13 sounds goods enough to me.

    So, now we have a name for Napier's army? The Institutional Staff Members of The Florida Gators. And it seems like they can all coach in games from the sidelines... That should make for far more detailed instructions fin games. I like it.

    Leave it to the NCAA to make all these position coaching limits more complicated than it needs to be.

    All we need is one total number of coaches that can coach full-time in games, and on total number that can recruit.

    I mean we have two guys solely dedicated to special teams....(Houston and Couch). How many do you want? And our special teams were pretty good for the most part last season.

    They dropped the "co-" Whoop-tee-doo...I'm sure his duties aren't changing one iota, just his paycheck.

    Is it? I’ve read here that our WR routes are elementary and frequently place our guys too close to each other. It’s been a recurring theme of our keyboard coaches, many of whom are really knowledgeable.

    There were a lot more things than special teams that gave that game away.

    Even still... it came down to one HUGE, very preventable mistake. It was the easiest, most preventable mistake in that entire game. The worst part is... it's a pattern.

    We need to never again make those, simple to fix, mistakes.

    Lmfao..
    Every time any coach who is not demonstrably terrible ( a certain defensive coordinator under Mullen..Todd we love you man) ..we act like we just lost the next Vince Lombardi.:);)
    Please use the latest scoring guide when posting:
    1. Add 3 points for worshipping TOSU overspending. Love those guys. ( we do?):devil:
    2. Add 2 points for deriding CBN not hiring an offensive coordinator in your comments.:oops:
    3. Add 1 point if Stricklin can be blamed for losing any coach.:confused:
    Add 0 if blaming Foley.:(
    4. Add 5 points if any coach
    with a LAST name that is a GIRL’s FIRST NAME can be included. Only two if the now discredited BILL BELLICHIK ( since Brady left, and he imploded) once hired :eek:
    5. Add 10 points if profanity can be implied, even tho we can only use scrambled alphabet %$==ef
    trying to show how important our post is. Always a winner.:ninja2:
