hate to sound like a broken record, but .......

when Mork was first hired as HC he said "my worst mistake at Georgia was giving up playcalling ... i will NEVER make that mistake again"

the ONLY OC the CANES will have as long as Mork is the HC will be Jon Jon .

We’re basically paying $4 million per year for an average OC.

Mark Richt isn’t interested in being a head coach. He basically said so publicly before he was hired.

Jess Simpson is effectively our Head Coach right now.

The only thing that could possibly save Mark Richt right now is if he miraculously landed Justin Fields...but I don’t see that happening.

Blake James did no diligence on this hire, and he deserves to be fired.
 
Yeah when the Banda/Patke promotion happened I was ok with it so long as we went out and got an OC. I didn’t think it would happen like most everyone else. What failure.

Blake James is a meatpuppet --- a ticket salesman who does what he is told .. the guy who is really running the football program at Miami is David Epstein (Chairman of the BOT Athletic Committee)
 
Good interview sums up first practice and explains decision to make Banda and patke co-cordinators. Recruiting is a war as we have all been saying on this board, glad to see acknowledges it.

Richt would rather be OC than head coach. He will NEVER give up playcalling. Ever.

One thing that’s gone unnoticed is the promotion of Jess Simpson to Associate Head Coach.

This is a direct response to Jimmy Johnson and the like saying yoy can’t be head coach and coordinate one side of the ball.

Instead of hiring an OC, Richt’s answer to that criticism was to hire someone to do the head coaching responsibilities - Simpson.

Don’t be surprised if all the true head coaching is done by Simpson next year. Richt would rather be a pure OC.

Blake James should have known that when he interviewed Richt back in 2016

“True head coaching?” What is that? Simpson will be interviewed post game? Will go on Hurrican Hotline? Will be at all the fundraising events? Will be the face of the program?

You really think Jess Simpson will make the calls on recruiting or decide whether or not to go for it on 4th down?

What exactly do you mean by this idotic post?

“I didn’t see much broken on defense, so I didn’t want to sit there and try to start from scratch.

Meanwhile on the offensive side of the ball...

“It’ll be a defensive position,” Richt said of the opening. “We’ll hire one more.”

**** man

I was looking high and low for Richt's logic from the above quote........still looking.

His mistakes at Georgia are the same as now. Refusal to adapt when things go awry, subpar assistant coaches, and lack of emphasis on recruiting the o line.
 
Richt saying national search and the next promoting the young guns just shows how he operates just like the QB flu flopping this year.

He puts no thought or reason into what he does and just makes crap up on the fly. This also is shown in how he handled recruiting this cycle, specifically QBs and OL

How the BOT doesn’t light him up is beyond me
