tbh though what young coordinator would work under O? He doesn’t have a coaching tree so it’s not like he’s going to make them better coaches or propel young coordinators into better jobs. And i can’t see the legit coordinators work for coach O unless they are the highest paid because he hasn’t proved to anyone he’s a great coach. That leaves his bbq buddies to hire because they respect each other.

if CEO had a history of success as a coach then i think coaches would be reluctant to work for him, but had one great year, and many feel Brady and Aranda were the reason behind it

Compared to the legendary defensive abomination we've seen so far, Tepper, Mallveto or "Third and Chavis" would be preferable.......

Just because the donors want it to happen doesn’t mean it’s going to happen. Correct me if I’m wrong, but today CEO publicly said “Bo is going to be a great defensive coordinator”

Part of this is on Woodward too. 0 reason to give that guy 7 million bucks. He was making $350,000 a year at Youngstown State

How does that even work? Who gives money to someone that says its “possibly” to do something?

Donors say "if X happens, and I will give Y amount of dollars, contingent on the deal happening... And then you have to trust them to keep their word, kind of blank we trusted our head coach when he said our defense was actually going to be better this year

May have not been the answer?

Wow, coach, good thing you're on top of it... Some of us said this the minute he was hired, and cited his lack of success on the defensive side as a head coach at Nebraska and Youngstown State. People made up all sorts of excuses.

Well, here it is. The guy was always about pressure (and he can usually get that), but no legitimate coverage schemes to stop the pass when the pressure doesn't get there in time. He could get away with it 15 years ago. A lot has changed since then.

And don’t discount Brady, because that was a HUGE pull and paid immediate dividends.



There's pretty strong evidence O had little to do with Busch or Brady. And no one will consider Aranda and Brady part of his coaching tree.

They donate money for wins and not to be embarrassed. At the end of the day we know people care about winning over peoples views!

If this were true is should come out of O's pocket. (not that it will)

Hey O, we can't keep paying off the mistakes of your coaching hires.

I love the comments "may not be the answer". LMAO. What was your first clue?

My apologies. Evidently you had good sources, or made a good guess.
I'm very much in agreement but didn't think in this current situation they would spend the money on buy-outs.
