There does seem to be some talk about that ?Unfortunately his Oregon teams didn't exhibit those traits.

BingoManny's defense shut them down because they couldn't block a soul up front that day. I haven't looked into Briles all that much yet but his FSU stint will factor very little for me at least. Knowing their QB/OL situation was one of the worst in college football compared to what we will have will be night/day. I know he's a big name but I'm excited to go watch some Arkansas and Houston games.
I don't see any other reasonable path forward at this point.FLY. THE. ****. PLANE.
“7 days, 8 million $, 0 coaches named- FIRE MARIO”
Look im not getting into this back and forth with folks wanting to bring up his Bama performance. Just like folks want to throw out the FSU tenure as an anamoly we can throw the Bama game out too.You do realize the QB he had at FSU is a huge step down from what he'd have here. Briles isn't my first choice...but with a solid O-line...and an aggressive defense...it would be all good.
Also, how did his team do against Bama this year?
LOL. I read the board just like you do man. Im no insider. People have been throwing Dorsey and Mullens name around so ****, I did too.Who said Dorsey and/or Mullen are Mario’s Plan B’s???
I always got the feeling that Brady was A and then Briles was the name I heard in the next group.
I agree with 90% of what you’re thinking, based on the candidates. I have my reservations too about his offense vs. legit contenders, but I offer 3 points to think about with regards to the FSU game you referenced.I wasnt big on the Briles talk unless he was our 3rd or 4th option and looks like that is where we stand at this time. So be it. Especially if it helps us keep Garcia onboard too. And Briles would be an idiot to not accept this job if offered. So theres that too.
Before the "What dont you like about Briles?! His offense always produces!!" folks come jump down my throat again.. While I think his offense could win the ACC (especially in down years)..I have a hard time with the fact that it could not get us the big prize when we run into legit defensive minds. Hes the "Mike D'Antoni" of college football. Looks great in the regular season until you hit the playoffs and run into the real defensive minds then its one big flop after another. Say what you want about his FSU tenure and yes I know that was 2 years ago..but Manny Diaz completely shut that offense down. And Manny's defense is thought of as a gimmicky clown show on this board so what does that make Briles scheme? Just sayin.
That said, Plan A (Brady) and Plan B (Dorsey or Mullen) seem to be pretty much dead so bring me Briles and lets hope for the best!
He may have learned that from Butch, he was a GA under him from 98 to 00.Great. Hate to quote Saban but I think Mario learned from him to have that mindset that Miami won't be for everyone. If you don't plan on working extremely hard in all facets then this ain't the place for you!
Conference titles as in plural? Because FAU won their conference with Briles as OC in 2017When Briles has good players his offense works? Fair enough. The scheme isnt proven to even win conference titles yet. Im just in wait and see mode. Like I said, his comparison is "Mike D'Antoni" of college football. Thats not bad. That aint great either.
Hate to hijack the thread but just wondering How Panthers feel about their offense, post Brady?
Mullet hardly was raised at all. Briles was really the next one speculated on.LOL. I read the board just like you do man. Im no insider. People have been throwing Dorsey and Mullens name around so ****, I did too.
I agree with you in part; not that everyone needs to be filled out (not even close) but if Salave'a is the guy for Dline (for example), you'd think getting him on board before ESD would help with guys like Moss. Maybe Mario is enough.Not sure I understand the wait but thanks for the info fam
Well we scored 21 points this week, including a TD in the 3Q - so no worse than with Brady. In fact 2 points more than we scored against the Falcons earlier in the year.Hate to hijack the thread but just wondering How Panthers feel about their offense, post Brady?

For as much as people concerned about posting on the right threads this thread completely went South. Mario spent no time talking about assistant coaches yet this turns into the hundreds of threads dedicated to a OC. Mario is laying out a foundation for kids to get behind yet that cannot gain any traction. Please take your OC concerns to the right threads…Thank you.
True. He mentioned Saban in an interview though regarding learning how to run an entire program during this era, which he described as being totally different than the past.He may have learned that from Butch, he was a GA under him from 98 to 00.
