He’s replaceable, imo.

As long as it doesn't disrupt our Portal hunting, that's fine. Hey, maybe we get a guy who brings someone with him.

Well. Shit. Aggy just fucked us with their laughable OC hire. 
 

Good for Marion - and it certainly looks good for Texas when an assistant gets a promotion elsewhere.

Wonder if this seals the deal with worthy 

Wonder if Whittington knew this before he announced his return. 
 

Let the speculation on a replacement begin.

Modden is obviously now at risk, but otherwise the timing is pretty decent for us honestly. aggy dragging the hire out past NSD1 helped us out.

Maybe Wiggins is ready to leave now.

Pass.

If Coach Marion is gone, it shouldn't be a big surprise.  His tenure has been short at most of his coaching jobs.

Have to believe all the action around Tulsa and others earlier that Sark has had some preliminary talks about a replacement already. 
 

Hopefully, for this board’s sake, this doesn’t drag out.

Marion is a gimmicky self promoter that didn’t add a ton. There’s a reason why you’ve heard the “gogo” offense so much and it certainly isn’t because we actually utilized any of it. Maybe he can lose the cowboy hat now. Also wouldn’t shock me if we hired Marcus Arroyo in a basic “swap”

That would actually be a pretty good hire imo

Marion has been trying/begging for an OC job for months. He literally would have taken ANY OC job available.  For a while in December he basically stopped recruiting because all he was focused on was getting a new job. He got his ass back focused when he realized he was getting a job at the time but he been focused on himself for a while. 
 

Good recruiter, good relationship builder  but did a bad job holding that WR accountable. Some of that is on Sark as well but Marion let Worthy get away with whatever. Our receivers didn’t improve this year and Worthy actually played better under the last coach. There will be people in that room happy with this move. Hopefully Sark has somebody lined up. 

Samples has the same title at ASU. We know what he brings to the table on the recruiting front. Hell, bring him to replace Marion and his dad to replace Gilbert.

Yeah, the Texas WRs in 2022 was the worst performing group -- if Marion is gone it's an opportunity to upgrade our WR coaching.

Malcom Kelly also seems to know what he’s doing when it comes to WR.

Guilty. 

The funny part of this is how Odom at UNLV doesn’t seem to care what offensive scheme they run. Going from Petrino to Marion as OC is quite an interesting strategy.

Arroyo could be excellent

Odom just pawn in game of life.

He has the same title but he’s still never coached WR’s at any level outside of his analyst stop here.

He would be great recruiting but would contribute little else. Maybe he knows everything he needs to know and we just haven’t seen it, but if you are Xavier Worthy or Jordan Whittington or a portal WR in a contract year I wouldn’t be thrilled hitching my wagon to a dude who’s never coached the position I play.

Did it though? Marion seems a lot more hype than results. He’s pretty replaceable and there’s a decent chance we end up with a better WR coach. Plus, if he didn’t leave this year, it would’ve been next year. If we can hold on to the guys we have, this will be better timing than him leaving before NSD1 next year. 

If I was Sark I would get a blank check and make Jeff Scott tell me no.

My concern is portal recruiting given how big a need WR is and how little time is left in the first window. 
 

Has anyone said Tee Martins name yet?

Keary Colbert is connected to Sarkisian and he was the first rumored WR coach candidate when Seven Win Steve got the job at Texas. He’s at UF right now. That one wouldn’t surprise me.

Position coach likely doesn’t crack the top 5 areas of concern for your average portal recruit.

Quick research suggest Arroyo.

Clemson Football || Assistant Coach Jeff Scott - YouTube

The Scotts look like the output of feeding a picture of every Clemson Greek couple into an AI. Just a perfect match with the school.

Would think we have inside lane with Scott's wife due to our proximity to all the shitty Kendra Scott jewelry.  

At least he’s looking at her tits.

Whittington has had like 3 WR (meh, Coleman,  Marion)coaches? I don't think this moves the needle for him. 

Make Brian Hartline an offer he can’t refuse. At the very least make Ohio State pony up a shit ton more.
