someone will take him as a OC, QB is a huge step down even for someone who failed as bad as he did.




Maybe, but it is curious that he's been mentioned for ZERO openings thus far.

he could be rumored for somewhere in the MAC and we'd never hear a peep about it.

I am not saying this is right or wrong, just passing it on. I have no clue.

have doubts you see Kragthorpe go from HC to QB coach
David Cutcliffe did just this when he was let go from Ole Miss. It is certainly not out of realm of possibility.

I thought Cutcliffe was OC and QB coach when he returned to UT after Ole Miss.

He was. But he went to ND first and was a Assistant HC/QB coach.

I'm not sure he ever coached a game there. I think he left b/c of hert issues.

Nope, never did coach a game. But he was hired into that position straight from being a HC.

Coach Krag. May not be as bad as we thing as QB coach:


Before coming to Tulsa, Kragthorpe spent the previous two seasons (2001-02) as quarterback coach with the NFL's Buffalo Bills.In 2001, he tutored Rob Johnson and in the 2002 season he coached All-Pro Drew Bledsoe. Kragthorpe also coached Alex Van Pelt in his two years with the Bills. Prior to his brief stint in the NFL, Kragthorpe worked four years (1997-00) as an assistant coach at Texas A&M, including the final three seasons as offensive coordinator. He also coached the wide receivers from 1997-99, before becoming the quarterback coach for the 2000 season.

The 1998 team, his first as offensive coordinator, posted an 11-3 overall record and a 7-1 conference mark to win the Big 12 South Division and the overall Big 12 Championship.

Kragthorpe entered the coaching profession in 1988 as a graduate assistant coach on his father's Oregon State staff. The younger Kragthorpe assisted with coaching the quarterbacks and receivers.

In 1990, Kragthorpe became the quarterback coach at Northern Arizona and remained in that position until being elevated to offensive coordinator for the next two seasons. While at NAU, he coached quarterback Jeff Lewis, who spent five years in the NFL as a reserve quarterback for the Denver Broncos and Carolina Panthers.

Following his four-year tenure at NAU, Kragthorpe became the offensive coordinator at North Texas in 1994, spending two seasons with the Mean Green. At North Texas, he oversaw an offense that led the conference in total offense. While there, he coached quarterback Mitch Maher who broke single-season school records for passing yards and total offense. After two seasons, Kragthorpe then moved to Boston College where he spent the 1996 season as quarterback coach, coaching current NFL signal-caller Matt Hasselbeck.

Playing collegiately at Eastern New Mexico (1983-84), Kragthorpe quarterbacked for two seasons before transferring to West Texas State. He started 11 games as a senior and completed 179-of-344 passes for 1,980 yards and nine TDs.

I too find it weird his name has not been mentioned for any coaching changes, other than Belowpar's comment! Despite what Miles says about no further changes, CM and GC seem to be in different chapters as it relates to play calls and players not playing i.e. Russell S and Rueben!
