An athletic article by Brody Miller yesterday echoed this same thing. This time it isn't about scheme, it's about the person and how he relates to the players. Pelini was a disaster in so many ways.

Maybe this is a test. If orgeron tries to hire him Woodward fires O on the spot.

I stand corrected. This absolutely prepares him to prepare game plans and execute them against the best division in college football.

The guy has bounced from team to team over the past few years. DB coach, not promoted in any of them. Shaping up to be a terrible hire IMO if in fact he becomes the DC.

He hasn’t coached a good DB unit in the NFL. Dolphins, Bengals, and Vikings were all awful when he was there.
We also have Raymond on staff. If we’re going to hire a random position coach it should at least be someone with LB or DL specialization

How do you know all Ed O is interviewing is one "lesser known candidate"? Could you explain that? How are you privy to this information?
Well, it may seem to you that way, but honestly you don't have the first freaking clue about the process. Indeed, you are just making wild speculations.
Meanwhile, other than you, who cares how long it has been since Pelini was let go. I mean he had to wait until after the bowl game to interview Marcus Freeman and he had to wait until the Saints either won the Superbowl or loss in the playoffs to interview Ryan Nielsen.
Meanwhile, it hasn't even been a week yet since Ryan Nielsen, who Ed O along with Ryan Nielsen both thought would be able to take the job wasn't able to take the job. What do you mean the candidates should have been lined up already like an assembly line? Where does it say that? Give me a break, that's hilarious.
Searching for qualified candidates doesn't constitute scrambling. Explain exactly what you mean. Perhaps you are privy to far more information than everybody else or more probably you are making idiotic speculations based on your own unhinged paranoia.
Judging by the tenor of your incredibly stupid post, I don't believe you are pulling for Ed O as all. In fact, per the tenor of your idiotic post, you are actually trying to smear Ed O by insinuating he somehow isn't doing his job or isn't doing it according to your unrealistic high standards.
Not only that but you are trying to claim because Ed O had bad luck with his first two top candidates that he needs to nail it. According to who? You. What makes you qualified to judge candidates? Nothing, you are obviously just a low-information ignoramus trying to smear Ed O because the process of hiring a DC sometimes takes time.
Do me a favor and let Ed O do his job and go fly a kite.

This seems like it may very well happen.

Why did you delete your post about him being hired?

Heard some contradictory information. Equally as credible.
So not sure where this stands.

No matter what someone says, what their opinion is or how one sees the process there is always the predictable opposing view. Can't people express their thoughts without being ridiculed or mocked?
Regardless of who O is considering or interviewing the fact is the process is taking longer than many feel it should. That is enough to express opinions no matter the reason. The optics are poor and outward appearance is easily construed as failure. O hasn't helped himself since his track record of hiring assistants, sans Brady, is not good. That much is indisputable. We'll see but it appears to me he's reaching and not any home run hires beating his door down. If there was this would have been over a long time ago. Just look around, positions are being filled everywhere yet here we sit with what should be a plum job with excellent talent. Not a good look.

He’s definitely the guy. News starting to hit the booster gossip circles.

I wonder if this all based on an Aranda recomendation...
All I know is O is rolling the dice on his own coaching career. The trouble with hiring someone with little to no DC experience is how they can adapt or make quick changes in a game. Not saying it can't happen, but someone like Jones better be able to dazzle O in an interview with schemes on how to stop modern college offenses!

If Jones is the guy, I think O’s biggest criteria was player buy in. He saw the disconnect with the players and Bo. If your guys are playing hard for you and your recruiting at a high level, you’ll do enough on D not to be a liability.

I was reading up on him last night and it sounds like it was Mickey and Vance Joseph that have recommended him. I know no one cares, but I like the dude based off what I've read about him. He inherited a young secondary in Minnesota and by all accounts worked wonders with them throughout the year. He's worked his arse off to get to where he is now, and there is nothing to indicate that he wouldn't continue to give us everything he has. I realize he doesn't have the pedigree that everyone is looking for, but this dude is hungry. He's been around a lot of different schemes so it's not like he's been bagging groceries for the last decade. He's been grinding to get to this point, and I'd be more than happy to have him grinding here for us and our guys.
