if this happens, i feel like there's a better use of @SydneyCarton's decaying corpse. we put it him in chip's trunk and wait until chip's passed out drunk and drag him out to the body and wrap his hands around sydney's neck. then drag him back inside and onto his couch.

 

I feel @SydneyCarton should be chummed and thrown on CDC during a National TV home game

All of New Mexico is a fucking shit hole. Scenery be damned. While Lubbock may very well be the armpit of Texas, I would much rather be there than Alamogordo, Tucumcari, Truth or Consequences or even marginally better Las Cruces and Santa Fe (fuck Santa Fe, full of uppity retired rich fucks that relocated there after retirement, and want to be New Mexican).

totally disagree!!!! I just moved to New Mexico, it's fucking awesome; it's miles above the panhandle of Texas. As far as the uppity claim, nicest people I've ever been around are in Las Cruces, very chill.  I left Austin because of the asshole factor of all the new money. It ain't the Austin we used to know by a long shot

Naivar wasn’t responsible for flipping Sterns. He was on the Sterns recruitment for a while and couldn’t get him to flip. It wasn’t until Washington took point on the recruitment that the Sterns flip happened. 

Thanks for the info.

Don't follow recruiting closely,  but did know Naivar made the initial contact/very early visit.

I’m by no means not knocking Brian’s report, FWIW. I’m just under the impression that this thing is pretty far down the road and Jones has been Herman’s No. 1 guy. If the hire can deliver what I think it will in recruiting and player development, $225K plus a new salary for Jones isn’t worth letting that slip away.

If we penny pinch and pass on the best hire over a 225K buyout we should just quit college football. The ASS is full of morons so the tweet they made makes complete sense.

Umm ... ASS or AAS?  Either would be problematic if it were full of morons ... but just want to make sure who you meant.

As I see it, yes.

Ask again later.

Better not tell you now.

Cannot predict now.

Concentrate and ask again.

Don’t count on it.

It is certain.

It is decidedly so.

Most likely.

My reply is no.

My sources say no.

Reply hazy, try again.

Very doubtful.

Yes.

Yes – definitely.

In all seriousness, I would not be shocked by an announcemen for Robb Smith soon. Either Okam or Partridge shortly wouldn't surprise me either.

Based on the little I know about these guys, I would be pretty stoked about all those hires. Even Smith seems to have only left Minny because of a personal spat with Fleck. He does need to give up the ghost on trying to have hair, though.

Yeah I'll go ahead and retract this based on the downthread info. Hair criticism stands.

Wiki tells me that Smith was a damn good ST's coach for Rutgers.  From the wiki:

Smith was the Special Teams Coordinator at Rutgers for three years. During his tenure leading the special teams units the Scarlet Knights' Special Teams ranked first nationally in blocked kicks with 31. The 2010 team led the nation in blocked punts followed by the 2011 team finishing 2nd in blocked punts. Throughout those seasons the Scarlet Knights Special Teams ranked fifth nationally in punt and kickoff returns for touchdowns

I like the idea of a "developer" for LB coach. If Smith is that, then great. I don't know enough about football to know that, though. Is that his rep?

Robb Smith was fired from Minnesota the day after a 55-31 loss to Illinois. At the time, Minnesota's defense was dead-last in the Big Ten. The reaction to Smith's firing from the Minnesota fanbase was very positive.

Obviously his DC'ing skills won't really matter if he's our LBs coach... but we also thought Mehringer's dismal OC performance at Rutgers wouldn't matter if we restricted him to WR coaching, and he still screwed it all up. Sometimes a bad coach is a bad coach, no matter where you try to move him.

I mean, Smith is definitely not a slam-dunk success, but comparing his coaching track record to Mehringer's is the most satya thing possible.

Wikipedia says that Robb Smith had top defenses at Rutgers, Arkansas and in his first season at Minnesota

But, sure, he's just like Drew Mehringer.

Minnesota’s defense in 2017 ranked slightly above our defense this year and in 2018, their D was getting absolutely killed when he was DC. They gave up 42 (Maryland), 48 (Iowa), 30 (tOSU), 53 (UN), 31(IU), and 55 (Illinois). They proceeded to give up 24, 15, and 10 after he was fired.

His defenses at Arkansas weren’t good either. Both were in the 80s in FEI in 2015 and 2016. He did have the 12th ranked defense in 2014, but Arkansas probably jumped about 30 spots after their performance in the Texas Bowl against a team that shall not be named.

 

Point being, he’s not a good DC at all. Hard to say if he’s a good LB coach. He was with Schiano  at Rutgers and as his o brought him to the Bucs in 2013. He Doesn’t seem to be a good recruiter. If he turns out to be a good LB coach and can carry the weight for ST, then it could be a good hire, but it appears rather underwhelming at first glance.

Clines Corner is one shitty convenient/novelty store that was fun 50 years ago. It's massively depressing now.

Good thing he won't be our fucking Defensive Coordinator.

'Good thing Mehringer won't be our fucking Offensive Coordinator." Bad coaches don't magically become good ones when they're demoted. So why settle for trying to rehabilitate him as a position coach? Are there no better options out there at LB coach?

Bad coordinators can in fact be amazing position coaches. Nice try though.

Some guys really are Peter Principle casualties at certain levels. Look at how many excellent coordinators around the country have flamed out at HC.

Sucking at a job above the level being hired for isn't necessarily disqualifying as long as they're properly vetted.

The flipside is you have to trust Herman/Ash at the vetting process, which.......

Frank Wilson is the obvious hire at RB if Drayton takes the cowboys job right?

LSU fans seem to think that he's going back to LSU.  I don't know if that means they're letting Robinson go, or if they plan on hiring him as an analyst.   If Wilson was going there as an analyst - why wouldn't they just make that hire?
