Potential Head Coach Hires

[SwampJacket]

No to Whisenhunt. Yes to the other 3.

Chad Lunsford and his coordinator, Bob Debesse, are coaching football 3 hours away from Atlanta. They went 9-3 this year. It fits hand-in-glove with current Georgia Tech talent. We'd be in the shotgun half the time. Lots of unique formations but maintain Triple Option principles. Kirvonte would become a star overnight... Lucas Johnson fits perfectly.

• Under his watch the Lobo offense continues to be prolific and record setting.
• In 2016, the Lobos blitzed several school records on the way to leading the nation in rushing yards per game, a first in program history. It also marked the fifth time in five seasons UNM has finished in the top-10 in rushing nationally
• The Lobo offense was prolific scoring 48 rushing touchdowns, breaking the school record
• The Lobos also broke the school record for total offense, racking up an astonishing 5,939 yards
• UNM also led the nation in rushing plays of 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 and 70 yards or more, and UNM running back Teriyon Gipson led the nation in yards per attempt, averaging 8.75 yards per carry.
• In the 2015 season, the Lobos led the nation in total plays of 60 or more yards (11) and 70 or more yards (7). In addition, the team ranked second nationally in rushes of 30, 50, 60, and 70 or more yards, and was third in rushes of 40 or more yards
• The Lobos added a deadly aerial attack as well and the team threw three touchdown passes of 80 or more yards in the final five games of the season, the most 80-yard completions in the history of UNM for a single season.

Wish you were the AD

Geoff Collins at Temple....Kingsbury as OC!!

Another vote for Moncken. Paul but with less reluctance to pass the ball.

Brilliant offensive mind. Probably too out there for Tech. But he will be coaching P5 again ... soon.

Kendall Briles was the magic there. They've been awful this year.

Also currently have the #10 class in the C-USA. Kiffin thought he was bouncing after this season and mailed it in. Then he won 5 games after his magic beans moved on to Houston.

Right now the names I am seeing/hearing:

Ken Wisenhunt- Chargers OC
Scott Satterfield- App State HC
Brian Bohannon- Kennesaw St HC

(long shot)- Gus Malzahn- Auburn HC (rumors Auburn is going to make a big HC move and leave Gus without a job).

Heck know !

 

[Rod64]

Chad Lunsford... Georgia Southern.

He can bring his OC and DC with him as well. Bob DeBesse and Scot Sloan. Or just bring the OC and keep Woody.

Heck know !!

Charlie Strong USF is gunna be a name that shows up a lot idk how realistic it is.

Hell to the hell know !!

Monken could take the existing players to a higher level; Any other Pass happy guru will set the program back 2 or 3 years

Depends on what’s the philosophy. If we going to be about developing players for the NFL. Grooming QB’s like Stanford & Duke. Playing a “pro-style” offense and getting smart kids that won’t a shot at the league, then Wisenhunt makes sense.

Yeah....nothing like setting your entire system up for the 2%

Not sure he is ready but better than Ken Whisenhunt

Why do some think that this change will be 3-4 years or rebuilding purgatory? Johnson took over a team not built for his offense and had arguably one of his best years. Look, I would take a couple of years of .500 to get away from the crap we’ve had and I can’t believe (unfortunately I really can) that some are thinking about coaches who run this same system. This is a 5+ year long decision for whoever gets brought in and it needs real thought.

17-18 year old young men / boys need to want to come here, have a coach with Dabo-esque excitement, positive message and can relate to them. That was not something Johnson could ever do or seemingly wanted to do.

Thanks I'll help on the OL

I’m hiring Sewak, get over it.

 

[Rod64]

You don't fire have a coach step down who runs an option offense and then hire another guy to run an option offense. No way are we going to hire any of those potentials.

Thank you Jeff !

We had the one guy in the country that knew more about the option than anyone else...if he cant run it consistently then why would we hire one of his disciples?

 

[GTFLETCH]

HC: Scott Satterfield
AHC, RC: Dell McGee
OC: George Godsey
DC: Nate Woody

I am still strongly supporting we get a *defense first* coach with strong recruiting.

However, if we don't go for Monken and we have to get an offensive guy, I think we need to get someone from the Mike Leach or Art Briles coaching tree. Both Air Raid and Veer and Shoot are meant to do more with less, just like our current offense is. Of the non factory schools in the top offensive efficiency, most come from either the CPJ, Briles, or Leach trees.

Kerwin Bell, Valdosta State. Worth an interview. Please not Whisenhunt.

What's the draw for Satterfield? What makes him unique?
