Cam Going to Get Dawson a HC Gig?

[Memnon]

To me he'd be more intriguing NEXT year, if he puts together another good offense without Cam.

He's produced several good Offenses without Cam.

Miami isn't his first job.

True, and yet the coaching carousel does feel very "what have you done lately" / narrative based. Case in point, Ludwig from Utah was hot for a while and now they don't have a QB and he is out on his ***. Alex Atkins was a hot head coaching candidate and now I'd be FLOORED if he ended up with a job anytime soon.

Who besides Ward?

Clayton Tune was drafted in the 5th round out of Houston

Geno Smith was drafted in the 2nd round West Virginia

Dawson was the QB & OC coach for both

 

[Bird4um]

Never heard of Tune.

How long did he have smith?

Never heard of Tune.

How long did he have smith?

Tune put up numbers at Houston

2 years for each. Tune was a dual threat. Skills didn't translate in the NFL. I think he washed out. But that's not Dawson's fault.

Dawson probably isn’t even in the top group for the ECU job. Joe Sloan from LSU, Littrell, Tre Lamb and little Riley are likely all getting looks before him.

Not a bad board!

Dawson ain't Cajun.

not quite sure what the definition of Cajun is, but Dawson was born in Louisiana

 

[AllAboutTheU]

Dawson ain't Cajun.

Tell him that lol. He said he is

 

[Gi0logy]

I see Dawson at a Rice type of program (G5 program in TX / LA) vs an ECU type program further north. Dawson at Rice makes a lot of sense IMO.

 

[NCCanefan]

Top OCs making a little over 2 large these days. We should be able to pay him enough to keep him happy (along with zero state income tax ) unless he has his heart set on being an HC. Sometimes getting the perch above the job that you really love isn't a great jump

 

[Shooter McGavin]

People here said Dawson sucks because of last game.

 

[SCarolina Ibis]

He's got the top offense in the nation and Heisman front runner at QB, but Rice is a job he's interested in? Come on..

They're 1 loss away from clinching their 10th losing season in a row and have only had 10 winning seasons in the last 60+ years.

Cajuns are in the Acadiana region of the state. Dawson is from the Florida parishes (Baton Rouge area). Them ain't cajuns at all.

Here's where you'll find the cajun/coonass culture:

The gray area is full of rednecks and NOLA city folk.

Not a bad board!

Jerry Kill would be a wonderful hire.
If you can win at New Mexico State plus help make Vanderbilt a formidable foe in the SEC, he may just be able to compete at Rice. Plus he has a nice coaching tree that follows him.vThe only issue with him is health.

[RozayCane]

Ok, let’s get some candidate list going.. lol


I’m thinking if he leaves this would go fast, as Mario will also need to attract a QB transfer.

 

[arwinga]

The on3 artcile just had a list of guys, no where did it say dawson was actually interested in the job. Last coach made under a million there. Hes getting paid more now. Also said Dawson was this great recruiter that got Cam..... we all now Mario got Cam!
