Penn State has not given up hope it can lure Mike Munchak for its coaching vacancy, a persistence grounded in the belief the Titans coach may listen to the Nittany Lions after all, sources said Saturday.

Munchak has repeatedly stated he would remain at Tennessee, but a source close to him said Munchak is struggling with the concept that he can "fix and make right" his alma mater.
quote:

"He loves his school and his heart is torn," the source said Saturday. "He really fits what they want and need to a tee."

quote:

Two sources said Saturday New England Patriots offensive coordinator Bill O'Brien is a candidate if Munchak does not reconsider. O'Brien is the offensive play-caller for Tom Brady.

Wrong coach whose name starts with a S. I think it is Schiano's.

If anyone can understand this type of disclaimer it would be the Bamers. Sounds exactly the same as ole Nicky before he left Miami. The big difference is Munchack is has a winning record and could be successful in the NFL.

If you want to use the word, at least spell it correctly.

Did LSU fans forget that Saban inherited a 4-12 team, and was 9-7 with them in 2005? I'm not trying to make a case for him as a NFL coach, but he didn't flame out with multiple losing seasons like some people try to insinuate.

I don't think he flamed out. I think he tucked tail and ran.

He would have been fired in 2007, if Cleo Lemon was still their QB.

Munchak will not be the PSU coach. Guaranteed.

Without question. That was a sinking ship.

USA Today reporting that Patriots OC Bill O'Brien -- with no head coaching experience -- will get the job at Penn State.

I still dont see that being the guy. I just dont see how they are going to let a pro guy turn the wreck into a nuclear bomb. The last 3 Bill guys have went down in flames, so I am still sticking to Schiano, until he says no.

He has a lot of college experience. He was an assistant at Brown and Georgia Tech. He then became the the OC at Georgia Tech in 2001-02. Went to Maryland in 2003-04 with Friedgen. Was then the OC at Duke in 2005-06, before going to New England.

Bill Obrein isnt even that good of an OC (coming from a Pats fan). Hes just been "the face" of the offense but Hes far from an offensive guru

Good luck to him if he goes though
