  1. Wait! It's Kevin Steele as DC/LB Coach ... Just kidding!
  2. Thank you Sam! Hook ‘em!
  3. In typical FCB fashion, he backpedals on Warehime being retained. He added in a board posting that Warehime was only being a given a chance to interview but likely won't be retained. Take that for what its worth ...
  4. FCB’s latest round of speculation on D side is splitting Dline into DE (Giles) and DT coaches. Potential DT candidate per FCB is Elijah Robinson (currently at A&M). LB candidate is Robb Smith (former Arky LB coach and Minn DC). Not much mentioned about DBs other than Washington a possibility staying at CB with Ash coaching safeties. Naivar could be in play at several Pac12 schools. On offensive side, FCB reiterated that Drayton and Hand are good and that Warehime will interview for TE role. Same names at WR as previously mentioned (e.g., Jones and Carrier) and Coleman (interim WR coach for Alamo Bowl) is in the running as well.
  5. I think Beard’s buyout is way more than $6m since he signed an extension after last season to 2023/24 for about $16M.
  6. Warehime is probably the most expendable member of Herman's staff if any of the rumors about Beatty potentially joining are true. Plus moving from OL to TE coach after Hand arrived is probably writing on the wall. It will be interesting to see if Warehime ends up staying on the staff as an Analyst or if he goes somewhere else.
  7. Nothing like failing up for sure. Though, I think the NFL trend towards more wide open college style offenses played a role in this (if the news ends up being true). Though, we are talking about the AZ Cardinals who were the definition of poor ownership/management ...
  8. Wow, what a bunch of poor sports. Yes, it would've been nice if Bru committed to UT but that was not in the cards. It was pretty evident from the video @TrojanPrincess posted that he was all USC the whole time. That's not a surprise since most of the Mater Dei HS stars go to USC (e.g., think Leinhart, Matt Barkley, JT Daniels and others). Hard to beat the hometown school in a place like SoCal, but at least Mehringer (despite his issues) made it interesting. I think we're more than good at WR especially with Colin Johnson returning.
  9. Hmmm, that might partially explain why Cain hasn't jumped on board. I can hear the typical recruit question - 'coach are you going to be here?' Then said coach says 'heck, yeah' and then outside rumors come up about said coach looking around. I do believe IT hinted at some other 'data points' regarding RB recruiting and this could probably be one of those. In any event, the competition for Cain and Sanders will certainly "neg" us and Drayton as much as possible. Ain't recruiting season fun yet?
  10. I hear you there and certainly wouldn't argue about that.
  11. The whole Penn St thing with Cain doesn't really make sense since he's not from the mid-Atlantic or Northeast. You usually don't see kids from the south (or Texas) go to Penn St, even though there probably are exceptions on occasion. In general, I think there's a lot smoke from the Cain camp to keep folks guessing not to mention all the media-fed speculation. We'll know for sure on Dec 19th ... As far as who to take if Sanders (Alabama, GA or FL) and/or Cain go elsewhere, I'd focus on Glass and the JUCO RB from Cali. In any class where you didn't have all the focus and hype over Cain and Sanders, a RB like Glass would be take.
  12. You know, it's probably time to stop dreaming about Bru. Great that we're in the running, but the Mater Dei (Bru's HS) stars usually end up at USC. Some of that is the SoCal/Orange County culture along with a long history of great players who went on to USC -- e.g., Matt Leinart (Heisman winner, lost to us in 2005 title game), Matt Barkley (4 year starter at QB), JT Daniels (likely 4 year starter) and plenty of others. At the end of the day, I think the USC/SoCal culture will win out and Bru will head there. Anything can happen (it's recruiting) but best to be prepared ...
