If we somehow can get Riley Woodward is a God.

I feel like our offensive issues are exaggerated slightly.

We have a terrible oline and thus can’t run the ball. It was the same last season. We can throw it to an extent but everything is limited due to no run game

That’s why im not counting out a defensive hire. Defense was our backbone from 2003–18 with one maybe two really down years in between. Our recent defenses have been historically bad, certainly last year and this year’s could catch up to that one when it’s all said and done.

Saban was a defensive guy brought in to clean up the DiNardo/Tepper mess. I think that’s why a name like Mark Stoops (in addition to Aranda, Fickell) comes up.

The splash names are mainly offensive guys. Just need to hire a good DC who can teach

The more I think about it the more I would like to see Lincoln Riley.

Riley will be in the NFL when he leaves OU
That list isn't even close to what Woodward will look at

Riley is going to have to beat the big SEC boys starting in 2025. Might as well get an early start in 2022.

Cristobal with a good staff could be legit

He’d definitely sort out the toxic waste that is our oline

Agree. When he leaves it will be for the cowboys.

Gundy i think missed his chance to leave. That stock is not ever gonna be what it once was. And he’s a cartoon character like miles and O.

If he isn't leaving the midwest he must be planning to stay at Cincy for a while. The only big job in the Big 10 that may come open is Penn St. if Franklin leaves. The only big gigs are OSU, UM, or ND and I don't see those coming open in the next 5 years minus a scandal.

Wants Sabans job when its time.

In what world is Cristobal more wanted than James Franklin and Lincoln Riley?


Franklin is like 1 for 7 vs Ohio State. Cristobal is 1 for 1.

He's also building the program around the trenches.

IMO, Kiffin should be in Tier 2. Certainly not behind Napier or Gundy.

I don't see Franklin leaving Penn St. anytime soon. He is PA guy.

The top 4 are laugh out loud funny that anyone would think we could pick them up.

dave aranda has a rough schedule coming up. if he can finish the season 8-4 i would take him.

would be happy with napier if he can finish 10-2.

i'd take fickell, kiffin and freeze, but i don't see any of that happening.
