Who is the RB coach at Arizona State, and is he a good friend of Nansen's.

CHIEF

Not sure but Nansen never coached at that school

Bobby followed up with a comment that Curtis Luper is another name to watch.

Sounds like they think Luper, McKenzie and Barthel from Nebraska might be the three finalists.

Probably not Barthel

 

[Callahan] Nebraska extends RB coach E.J. Barthel through 2027 Salary jumps from $293K → $450K (Feb. 2025)

What positions are still open just RB right? 

Nickel corner and monitoring the Joseph situation. Hopefully just some negotiating there

Edit: interesting to see if the star position is a nickel corner next year or one of the 3 safeties we bring back plays it

My Ohio State buddy raved about La'Allen Clark 

"He's gonna do great things with Simmons" which I took as a final concession in our yearlong "Simmons is as good as Jeremiah Smith" argument that had quieted since the Cotton Bowl

I send my resume in every day. No response. No one is even calling my references. 

Maybe because your references are 14 year old boys playing Madden in their mom’s basement

IIRC, Neal Brown called plays his last few years at WVU so Scott being OC was like Kyle Flood being our OC.

Of course, it's an out-of-left-field hire, so I won't pretend to know much about the guy, but I'll take it as a positive sign he was retained on a new staff, and he was the interim coach in their bowl game after Brown got fired, so my guess is the players liked him.

Run game has held Sark back from two consecutive national title births. Quinn wasn’t great, but he was good enough to capture one. Better then that KSU transplant at Ohio State. Makes sense he’d want to bring someone in coming from a prolific ground game.

I thought EJ Barthel just got a raise and extended his contract with Nebraska.

That’s a “so UT what can you offer” deal.

A more consistent power running game is the missing piece to a title. If this dude can help them get there, it would be an intriguing hire.

Having of our full line that can power run block will also help

I know nothing but doesn’t that require scrapping the zone blocking schemes? I’m no coach but when I see so many guys just looking around while a dude goes past them is infuriating.

I'm rooting for Norval McKenzie. 

His ties to Georgia and Florida are key.

Plus, anyone who's married to a lacrosse gold medalist, and has kids named Storm and Bolt is ok in my book.

Welcome, likely new coach and fam.

"Scott spent time in the National Football League with the Cleveland Browns and Pittsburgh Steelers before returning to his alma mater in 2006 as a graduate assistant video analyst. He graduated from UNC in 2004 with a degree in sociology. He is married to the former Shambrica Jones, who played basketball at Kentucky."

Another hire the $9.95ers were clueless about.

Yep. Been the trend. Leak 3-4 likely candidates right off the bat. Then 2 not well known but kinda interesting names come out . Finally, out of the blue somebody never mentioned is brought up and announced 30 minutes later.
