January 17, 20241 yr Kelly trying to build a defensive staff that will close off Louisiana. Going to be interesting to see if they can put a cohesive defense on the field.

Bjork has 5+ months to be a lamer at ATM, continue to irritate people while recruiting people. The other great thing about July 1 is that Smith isn't doing shit at Ohio State from here on out. It's his *earned* thank you tour through the end of baseball season. Bjork coming in playing from behind and being a general idiot is a good move for anyone rooting against Ohio State, which we should all be doing. Anyone worried about ATM getting an AD pick right should get off the toilet and stop squatting to pee. They'll probably hire someone "from the inside" just as a reflex from having outsiders not please them. That would be hilarious and long-lasting. Also of note, aggy could very well be in the market for a men's basketball coach. They really don't have 5 months to make this hire.Â

I take his hire as tOSU buying his explanation that no one was letting him do his job and all the dysfunction was caused by other stupid people making these stupid decisions.  Think about it.

January 17, 20241 yr Featured Popular Post I was bored and went through the coaching staffs for each of the remaining playoff teams. Listed below are the coaches who seemed like possibilities to me (but I'm an idiot). They all have some college coaching experience and in the case of one an extensive HS coaching background. A couple of entries have pretty light resumes but have long NFL careers. Houston Texans:Jacques Cesaire DL coach - 5 years at Univ of San Diego as DL coach, 9 years as DE for San Diego ChargersRod Wright Asst DL Coach Green Bay Packers:Jerry Montgomery DL coach -11 years in college at OU, Michigan, Wyoming.  Last 9 years in NFL Detroit Lions:John Scott Jr. DL Coach - First year in Detroit.  Previously coached at Penn St., South Carolina, and ArkansasWayne Blair QC - Long time Florida HS head coach, spent last two years coaching DLine in Detroit.  Played at Tulane and CFL Buffalo Bills:Marcus West Asst D-Line - Prior to joining Bills in 2022 spent 14 years as college D-Line coach (Charlotte, Minn, Austin Peay) San Francisco 49ers:Darryl Tapp Asst D-Line - 12 year NFL veteran.  Coached D-Line at V-Tech for 2 seasons.  Joined 49ers in 2022.

January 17, 20241 yr Popular Post Bobby is reporting that Rod Wright is likely the top candidate for the DL position. Â "definitely in the mix if not the guy and can't go further than that" Edited January 17, 20241 yr by BurntOrange&White

January 17, 20241 yr If true, seems a little underwhelming when the $9.95 reports have been "a hire on the level of a Bo Davis".Â
January 17, 20241 yr If true, seems a little underwhelming when the $9.95 reports have been "a hire on the level of a Bo Davis". Yeah. It’s so unlike that crowd to hype things up.

I’ll find something else to bide my time until the next transfer then
January 17, 20241 yr Kinda doubt the OC maybe getting another job would delay an announcement for an assistant DL coach. That's a lot of what-ifs away from being something relevant. Who knows though. Interesting side note I just read on his Wiki - after two years as an assistant for the Redskins, Slowik worked as an analyst for PFF for three years before joining the 49ers.Â

Who knows, but if it is Wright, I like that’s he’s professional enough to not leak it during a playoff run. He owes it to his current employer.  Edit: also it seems clear Slowik IS getting a HC job. He’ll probably take guys he trusts to run his defense. Edited January 17, 20241 yr by Ricky Butler

January 17, 20241 yr Author Excited to see the DL hire but I’m more excited to see how we fill out the support staff. I bet that some of those Bama support staffers are going to end up in Austin. Hopefully we can get some of their recruiting and player personnel people too.Â

January 17, 20241 yr I'm going to guess that $2.6 million annually is at the bottom of P5 head coaches.
