Less Known Potential Candidates we would consider???

I like Sarkesian but I dont think he would leave Washington IMO

I like him also. I like the fact that he has coached at a high level. I'm still a little concerned that he has underperformed so far. If Kelly can get Oregon to the title game I would think Sark could compete at a little higher level.

Does anyone know much about Calhoun? Seems to be successful. What type of style do they play and is he an O or D minded guy?

Blakeny at Troy would be the under the radar guy that I think could be a huge success with our talent.

What about Gary Crowton? He has been a HC twice before.

Who is the guy from Nevada? I think he is older though.

Any NFL guys with college coaching ties?

I think probably 6-8 of those guys would realistically come here. Quite frankly I'd be satisfied with any of them. My concern is keeping Billy, Frank Wilson, and Chavis. And Moffitt.

Losing Miles would not be the end of the world. Especially if one of those 11 guys comes and we keep our top recruiters. My biggest concern of all is keeping Chavis. I love his scheme and we recruit uniquely to it. Switching back to a 4-3 type defense would get us pushed around in the run game because of the size of the guys. Just my opinion.

I think Chavis staying depends on 2 things...who we hire (defensive minded guy he goes) and who is calling at the time. Had Texas called next week he would probably be gone all of this of course is if Miles were to leave. I think Chavis is here as long as Miles is. If Miles doesn't leave now he is here for a long time.

I would actually really like Troy Calhoun as coach. Hear me out.

First off, his name is Troy, which guarentees he's a cool guy.

He was a sucessful OC at multiple schools, including a few schools in BCS conferences. He's run a number of different offenses, all of them being successful. He was also a QB coach.

He was an offensive and defensive assitant in the NFL, meaning he knows the game well. Know most notably as the OC for the Texans in the NFL.

He's never won fewer than 8 games at AF, which is pretty good as I would think they have a hard time recruiting the best athletes because you actually have to go into the military after college if you go to AF.

Simply put, the Troy Calhoun hiring earns my full endorsement.

Kirby Smart!!!
