Possible coordinators to be hired?

Remember when I told you that I knew something was going on inside that locker room--- but I wasn't sure what it was?
These were the rumors I was hearing.
Clob serious question i have if you do not mind. I know Major has alot of baggage here and did not make professional choices while he was a coach here. Is there anything in your opinion that Major could do to save face with all the issues he has caused? From what I've read you were a former player and how did your teammates handle issues like this with a teammate?
I was never a team mate of major's but some of my team mates that were younger were, obviously. The major/ricky incident was handled well in house and Ricky never let it affect his play.
But when major was coaching here, while his wife was pregnant, 7 or 8 months I believe, he had an inappropriate sexual relationship with one of the student trainers. Now I grant you, she was of the age of consent-- and there was nothing illegal about the tryst. And I also grant you that people sometimes make stupid decisions. But as the adult in the room, you can't do that. It's just not worth it. He was supposed to be the adult in the room, and he wasn't.
Let's look at another co-ed boinker-- Layne kiffin. Now I ask you, do you really think that guy has changed his ways? Dude had a smoking hot wife and kids and masqueraded around on social media as a guy named Joey freshwater so he could shag local college girls. And now he's the head coach of perhaps the most trophy wife university in america--- Ol Miss. Do you honestly believe that Joey won't be hitting everything in sight like a pinata? Of course he will. But he's Ol Miss's problem. Major can't just water under te bridge this. He made a serious mistake and as far as I know, never made a public acknowledgement of it or an apology. (As far as I know)
So how do you reconcile that? I don't think it's possible. There just too much stank on that carcass.
Let me tell you a little bit more about Major and his wife that's a matter of record. His wife wasn't 7 or 8 months pregnant she was just a few days away from giving birth. He got pumped after TX beat tOSU in a very exiting FB and persuaded a student manager to give him a bj which she did.
And did you hear what happened to LK in the divorce settlement? She ended up with 34.5% of his net worth a $10,000 a month house in Manhattan Beach and physical custody of all 3 kids. You're right a beautiful wife but men sometimes we just don't get it and I'm serious when I say that.

“FB?”
also clob, what is this Ricky/Major incident you speak of? Either never knew or have forgotten
Fiesta Bowl weevilcatch. In January 2009 we beat tOSU in the FB which is where it happened.

Ricky had a girlfriend and major bumped fuzzies with her.
In my defense, my reassuring comment was made BEFORE Herman’s latest snafu, the double middle finger salute on national tv. So, after reviewing evrrything in its entirety, I concur, you’re fercked, you should probably consider that cliff dive.
Cliff diving would be too easy . . . Im thinking dull rusty butter knife to the abdomen at this point! If the internal bleeding doesn't get me then the Tetnus surely will. And both would be less painful than watching ole Tommy screw up again!
Perhaps just a muff dive, then call it a day. You will feel better in the morning.
Well, I don't think anybody is going to jump for joy around here. But, if it pans out this way, then I can understand why they didn't release any info until after signing day. Pretty blah and definitely not news that would generate any excitement among recruits.
Didn’t Major just get UH in trouble?

That's not really on Major. Ya it was under his watch but that's on the AD.
Lashley has worked with Herb Hand at Auburn and runs the power spread TH likes and has a proven ability I think he is a good fit if Tom can let him do the job .
I don't disagree. The question becomes--- will Tom let go of his controlling mindset and allow someone to actually run the offense. I think Tom is better calling plays when he's up in the booth. Some guys just have a better feel for the game when they have a bird's eye view. I think Tom is one of those guys.
Interesting article. Could be why there’s been so much silence surrounding the search...

If true I only have a few questions. Is he a team player (see Meninger or whatever his name is). Will he throw the ball past the 1st down marker (see Tim Beck). Is he a good judge of ol coaches? If so will he make the correct decision regarding HH?
Otoh he was the oc when OSU beat TX 5 out of 6. But then again he was the oc when OSU lost 5 out of 6 to OK. Even worse OSU folded like a cheap suit every time against OK.
But really who knows if this story has any validity? Tom Herman is very much a behind behind closed doors coach in matters like this. A good example of how the media gets things like wrong on a regular basis was when Clay Helton's job security was in question. There we're 10 story's saying he was gone, only 2 were right. In other words I won't believe anything until the press conference.

If true, CDC must have opened the checkbook. Why would he move laterally from a long time powerhouse to a longtime underachieving program with the same position? Nonetheless, any offensive coach that has worked under Gundy for that many years is a good thing, no matter how you dice it.
I said I was going to fold my arms for the next 9 months and take a wait and see attitude about the new coaches. But this same link that talked about this guy Yurcich also mentioned this guy at MN Kirk Ciarrocca. And if nothing else this guy looks good on paper. He could be the one that could bring the much needed change of attitude, personality, and competence that we need on offense.
LOL! You enjoy being wrong, don’t you? I’ve already told you, Tom doesn’t want control of the offense.
Wasn't my experience. When Rex Norris had his fill of Mackovic, he came to the dorms and told each of us individually that couldn't stand mackovic any longer and he was taking a job in the NFL. Shook our hand and said he'd tried as hard as he could to stay with us, but just couldn't stand take it anymore. Next thing I knew, Nelson Barnes showed up. None of the DLine were met with by the coaching staff to ask us if we had an opinion or a question or whatever. Just--boom. One day I didn't have a position coach and the next day I did.
But please don't think that mackovic was the norm for coaches. It may have been a more inclusive practice at other schools.
