Also the longer this drags out the more likely it seems that Field and DVD (ugh) are staying in on filed roles. I can see Mario being able to keep the OC and DC stuff under wraps, especially if they’re coming from the NFL, but much harder to keep position coach news from leaking out (like it did with Kevin Smith). If we assume that DVD and Field are staying in their roles, then it’s really just OC, DC and ST that we’re waiting on (plus official announcement of Smith).

Or maybe the OC and DC will have a word on who will be the remaining assistants.
 
FWIW per Manny Navarro latest podcast:
- Kendall Briles n.1 target for OC, Dorsey is in contention and named Ponce as a well-regarded guy.
- DC: Clint Hurtt, Glenn Schumann, Doug Belk.

He admitted that these are only rumors and we will have clarity near the announcements (DUH).
In other words, he doesn’t know any more than we do.

Oh I'm with you. Hurtt and Ponce would be incredibly disappointing regardless of how the apologists try to spin it but I really don't think those guys are in the mix.

If Mario hires Hurtt and Ponce it’s obvious that Manny Diaz took Mario’s family hostage and forcing him to make the hires

Possible, but assuming the Smith stuff is true we’ve already hired 3 offensive assistants. And TE is usually more of a recruiting slot anyway so of the slots on the offensive staff it’s probably the one an OC would care least about having input on.

That's fair, maybe the top OC candidates blessed those hires. Who knows.

So if the OC blessed the hire, then we obviously have an OC…. So why haven’t we announced him?

Smith allegedly interviewed over a week ago. So we’ve had an OC for over a week with no announcement? Hmm, not sure I buy it.

Maybe we are waiting for someone to end the season and decide (Dorsey) while having a plan B ready (Briles).

Both could be ok with the other assistants on O.

i suspect some of the reporters have more information but given the recent regime change don't want to say anything too risky so as to not **** of the new HBC.
