    I think Charlie Strong is still on his staff as an Analyst as well

    CBN needs to hire Hartline as OC. Maybe he’ll bring some of those WRs with him.

    I don’t remember the timelines.. but if he was still the DC at Georgia while we were looking a bunch in this board would have had fits. They would have compared him to Muschamps. They would have said we need a coach that has HC experience. They would have absolutely melted down.

    Yup. I recall GNFP discussing him as a candidate, but don’t remember specifics. I’m sure the gist was no HC experience.

    I don’t think so… one kid is starting to play at Vandy. And another that was on the staff moved on last year.

    Does not hurt my feelings. I have not followed Chump at UGA but he can recruit on defense and UGA has been very good on the defensive side of the ball.

    He started out as an analyst and became an “on the field” field coach when they needed it a few years ago.

    He’s a multimillionaire. Not sure why he would want the grind anyways. Already proven he isn’t going to be a big time head coach.
