Sidenote: If you haven’t heard Lanning’s story on how he got into coaching college ball you should look him up, it’s pretty incredible. He started out as a high school position coach and is now a DC being floated around by FCB as a Saban target.

I heard a story at the AFCA Convention that, while not doubting the trustworthiness of the teller of this tale, sounded like it had to be embellished. During the Graduate Assistant forum, Memphis head coach Mike Norvell talked of a Missouri high school coach who decided he wanted to coach at the FBS level, so he packed up drove through the night to the one staff he knew, waited around for more than a day, worked for free for six months and is now on the cusp of being a coordinator in the SEC.

Is Carrington a great recruiter? Fuck yes. Do we also now have multiple actual coaches that are great recruiters? Also fuck yes. Loss hurts but not as bad when he isn't needed to cover dipshit coaches holes as much.

This. If we have baller position coaches the support staff becomes less impactful. As long as we have an organized, well run, evaluation and scheduling group these coaches should be able to take care of the rest. Gone are the days when we have to send Carrington out with Warehime or Giles to close on their recruits. In hindsight that is just embarrassing.

I'm going to throw this out there again that SC just poached Cal's Director of Recruiting Strategy.  His name is Marshall Cherrington... If they take Bryan Carrington for a similar role, everyone will be confused by the 2 names and it'll be a mess.

That Georgia 247 updated seems to be the first mention of any of these DC candidates going past the interview stage (early stages, potential offer, ect.)  If he's the guy Sark wants, it won't be due to money if we don't get him.

Roach is a good guy, but this wouldn't be shocking at all.

To add another moving piece, I'd think Pruitt could fit into this shuffle somewhere too, assuming he becomes available and an SEC school could get him through compliance. If we got Lanning and Golding goes off to LSU, I bet Saban would take Pruitt back in a heartbeat.

We'd have to pay Ringos buyout

It will be like the scene in Blue Chips when Penny Hardaway asks the coach if his mom will lose her job if he leaves.

Wait just a second here...does this Lanning character have any kind of pet sex animal (preferably a monkey to couple with Gia, of course)? 

If no, do not want.

Golding, Lanning, and Arnett are all basically the same guy - roughly the same age, have similar experience, and similar success. The biggest difference I see is that Arnett has worked with less talent and an offensive-minded head coach. I'd be happy with any of them.

Hey[mention=397]immamac[/mention] are we going to be allowed to have a Pole Assassin thread in IPIHB? Plenty of pics and videos out there but no nudes yet.

Not sure if posting possible NSFW pics of a current coach's monkey lover is kosher.
 

Duh.

Can we have some of the resident photoshoppers design a t-shirt or sundress with surlyhorns flair/branding or both. Let's get this fine lady some burnt orange surly gear.

Speaking of, is it just me or does it sound like Banks would fit in well here?

If Carrington leaves, he leaves. I think what’s been overlooked on this whole deal is BC was the conduit for TH’s shitty attitude and behavior. He was the fluffer to smooth things over with recruits that Herman pissed off. They were all down with BC because he was closer to how they all grew up. I think BC does a great job and has been valuable to the program. But, I don’t think with the power recruiters we have coming in that he will make that much of a difference. I don’t think Flood, Banks or even Lanning needed a BC to get a signature on the LOI. Their development of players was the difference. This staff will change this.

Carrington in and of himself is replaceable, but staffs like Bama and tOSU still have guys like him. There have to be guys to pick up and maintain communications at a level (both in terms of numbers of players and doing it during busy times) that men with real day jobs (aka the coaching staff) can't.

So you can count on Sark replacing him and beefing up the staff numbers even more.

hopefully he’s just using Roach for a nice raise. He deserves it, and he knows we’re in throw our fucking weight around mode. 

 

We'll see but makes sense. Would potentially cut against Sark's ties to SoCal. Motivatation to keep him in Austin.

If we could get the dads of recruit’s schoolmates to stop being creepy ass stalkers from Surlyhorns we probably wouldn’t need a guy like BC.

Avatar is appropriate.
