So Rb coach it is then!Had a hand in developing Pat White and Jarrett Brown while he was a GA at WVU. Also helped develop Rakeem Cato at Marshall his freshman year before moving full time to Running Backs.
Dont be shocked if Seider comes on board as a Co-OC as some sort. This is what he is looking for that will get him to leave State College. Also he wants to either coach the QB's or RBs as that is where he has seen his most success in coaching.
Also I wouldnt be shocked if Franklin gives him the title to get him to stay consider most of the offensive recruits that signed with Penn State are Seider recruits.
As much as it would suck not to land Seider, it would be an entirely different level of letdown if we settle for Sedrick Irvin of all people when we desperately need proven stud recruiters to fill out this staff.
If Applewhite is OC, zero chance Seider gets a CO-OC title.
Not that hard to figure out who the “many from within” are. Why do we always have guys who are always trying to get their boys put on? Can’t imagine many people besides the support staff made up of South Florida guys even know who Irvin is. You could throw a rock at that coaches convention and hit more qualified candidates.Seider ain't comin'. He's not willing to take the risk of leaving stability for the unknown. His words, not mine.
Irvin is the name many from within are pushing for.
We'll see.
A former HC isn't taking a Co-OC with a guy who has never called plays before.Based on what? I'm fearing Seider is a pipe dream too, but Applewhite is being paid, what does he care what it says next to another man's name?
So a guy that played QB at West Virginia and FAMU (GulfCoast 60 pnts per game) in college isnt qualified to be QB Coach read someone said he's just a recruiter..![]()

I feel the same. Why would a former HC and OC need a guy to have Co-OC title and help him when he's probably coming here with the understanding that it will be his show for the most part? To me, it's not an ego thing. I just don't like Co-coordinators bc i prefer to have 1 voice, 1 vision. The players know who to listen to.
If a guy is labeled run-game coordinator or pass-game coordinator meaning they do a lot of film work and help to gameplan each week based on weaknesses they see on tape, fine. But 1 guy should be running the show.....coordinating practices his way and calling plays on saturday.

**** I could coach running backs..
"Drive your feet!"
"Hit the hole hard!"
"Follow your blockers!"
'nuff said.
Seider needs all that time to croot.
Exactly. We need this guy for recruiting purposes. He can be rb coach/co OC. As long as Major calls plays he can have whatever title he wants.We are getting raped on the trail...And it's getting way too bad. There are only a handful of Sofla type recruiting mercenaries that I'd do this for. As long as he isn't calling plays, by all means do it. Plus he's worked under some good coaches and coached both QB and RB for a while now, he could def be an aid in a game planning capacity.
