If Richard and Pelini are a SmokeScreen, then who might be the Big Name Hire?
Posted by boudinman on 1/21/20 at 2:55 pm

With all the hush hush, it's possibly a big time DC at a school that isn't wanting his name leaked to hurt him with his current employer. So any guesses from this list, or someone else you may believe is the target?
Jim Leonard-Wisconsin Would be Best Hire
Don Brown-Michigan
Bob Shoop- Michigan
Mike Tressel-Michigan State
David Reeves-UAB
Pete Golding-Alabama Be a Nuclear Melt
Mike Elko-Tx A&M Ties with Woodward

They don’t.
We just like to incorporate the possibility of a smokescreen.

still think and have always thought it’s Chizik
Since that's not going to happen, I'd wager Chiz would be a great fit.

It's why some schools hire a search firm to keep names from leaking out. Woodward doing a good job on that end right now.

So this secret DC is going to coach the LSU defense, while being employed by another school? If he is leaving for LSU, why would he be worried about his current employer?

2 other names that are mentioned:

quote:
Blake Baker
Current Job: Defensive Coordinator (Miami, Fla.)
Age: 36
Salary: Undisclosed
Why he could get a look: Known for his expertise in coaching linebackers, Baker’s 2019 unit finished No. 13 in the country, allowing only 309 yards a contest.
He landed at Miami after serving as defensive coordinator at Louisiana Tech from 2015-18 where his last Bulldog squad was fourth nationally in team sacks (3.46 per game), 12th nationally in team tackles for loss (7.8) and 33rd nationally in turnovers gained with 22.
LSU beat writer for 247 sports has Blake Baker’s name as a candidate for the DC job at LSU?

quote:
Randy Shannon
Current Job: Defensive Coordinator (UCF)
Age: 53
Salary: $300,000
Why he could get a look: Shannon and Ed Orgeron’s relationship goes back to 1988 and Shannon says Orgeron played a hand in getting him into coaching. Shannon has 10 years of experience as a coordinator at the Big 3 in Florida (Florida, Miami and UCF).
Like Orgeron, Shannon also has experience as an interim headman when Jim McElwain was fired at Florida and he has a wealth of experience at coaching linebackers.
Shannon was a linebacker at Miami from 1985-88. Orgeron was a graduate assistant with the Hurricanes in Shannon’s senior year. Orgeron went on to be the Miami defensive line coach from 1988-91 after Shannon graduated. After two years with the Dallas Cowboys, Shannon returned to Miami to succeed Orgeon as the DL coach.
