This is the ideal OC hire. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

I can only take the horse to water and show him the water.
Revised: Because @Liberty City El would laugh his *** off at people trying to justify why he’s not a whiff in that we’d get a typical ****** Miami hire after all of this talk of money and quality hires… and people would convince themselves that he’s pretty good because he was at App State and we know what App State does to people.

Ruggiero would be a weird fit here. He's a good OC, but that mesh stuff he runs would be odd with kids like TVD and Jake.
Give me an air raid guy and let's go. We have an elite QB, a bevy of pass-catching talent, and our OL skillsets translate much better to pass-blocking than road grading downhill running games. Rely on your strengths.

And we probably wouldn’t be offering that kind of scratch to Ponce.So him learning under Satterfield is all fine and dandy, but even as "Co-OC" at Louisville, he wasn't calling plays. It's like saying if we hired Candle as OC, tore it up with a Top 15 offense, and then someone was looking at BMac as an OC option...them saying "BMac ran a T-15 offense" just because he had the Co-OC title. He wasn't really calling plays or anything of that nature.
Could we do worse? Yeah, for sure. And I'm beating a dead horse, but he's not worth anywhere close to the money we offered Candle. To go from a respected MAC HC with a lethal offense, to Ponce...I just can't see it. There has to be coaches in between them that we're seriously interested in, and that interest is reciprocated.
Appreciate the breakdown, however. There's some good stuff in here...just in my opinion, not the splash hire we're looking for given the funds and the timeline we're operating on. We'll see...

You want Ponce?Well DMoney is already trying to justify him. Let’s see how it goes. I’m keeping my fingers crossed it’s him.
He could be talking about Pollo Tropical for all we know
