He’s actually the one name I’ve heard other than Brady. Briles is interested but I know Mario thinks very highly of Ken. Very smart guy who’s great with qb’s. It’s just a matter if he wants to leave the NFL where he could be up for oc jobs.

Miami fans saying they don’t want is hilarious beens Miami is the only college job he’d even think about downgrading too. Coming home to work for Mario could be tempting.

But there’s a lot of NFL OCs I wouldn’t want to be our OC.

The NFL and college are completely different animals.

Being good at one or desired at one, doesn’t mean you will be good or should be desired at the other.

The biggest fear when it comes to NFL OCs is how complicated their offenses can be relative to college football. And NFL “demand” doesn’t tell us that.

I think everyone should send a $1 to Cribby for his online content. Think of the Christmas he'd have and how much harder he will work in the future.

He's got 264K and a lock on the board. Set up a venmo account or something Cribby!

What offense would Dorsey run here is the question? Would he bring the bills offensive style here?

Dorsey doesn't have a product to judge. That will cause concern. Michigan hired a young DC from the NFL who had never coordinated a defense and that is going great. A pro guy coming to college and people will wonder if pro style under center stuff is back at Miami. No evidence to push back on that concern. Very few want to see that again.

have you watched the bills at all this year? they're practically running the air raid in the NFL. it's nuts.
 
NFL owners just passed a rule where potential head coaches get interviews with two games left on the season.

Best believe Daboll is part of these. Which leads to Ken possibly being a candidate for OC.

Yes, so if Mario may well have to wait for Ken. Unless Ken’s affection for his alma mater means more than an NFL OC opportunity.

Daboll to Chicago, Dorsey as OC/QB for Fields…

Nagy is almost certainly gone. Gotta think that means Herman will either be looking a new analyst role in the NFL or looking for college job

The trend seems to be to get NFL position coaches and promote them to coordinators. You have good examples of it working with Brady, the kid at UK, and Michigan's DC who John basically sent to Ann Arbor to save his brother's job. None of them were coordinators in the NFL.

Not saying I'm on the Ken Dorsey train, but for people that still think he isn't qualified to be an OC for us yet....Austin Davis just got hired to be Auburn's OC and only has 3 years experience as a NFL QB coach.

As a reminder of Ken's resume in comparison (for people who somehow don't know)..

-5 years of being a QB coach at Carolina
-2 years of being a QB coach at Buffalo
-In his first year of being the passing game coordinator (and QB coach still) at Buffalo (they're ranked 8th in passing YPG, which is down from being ranked 2nd the previous year)
-2 years of being a scout at Carolina

If you don't want a first time play caller to be the OC, that's understandable. But if someone here doesn't think he's qualified to be a college OC despite the fact that the Seahawks and Jaguars both contacted him before the 2021 season...idk what to tell you when Austin Davis, with 1/3rd of Ken's experience just got hired by an SEC school.

They don’t want to even admit that we could pair him with a vet like Tee Martin at WR coach as a CO-OC just to help ease into playcalling but they don’t even want to comprehend that.

Difference to me is Auburn basically has 2 on field coaches that were OC/QB Coach before and an Analyst that was as well. They can all mentor Davis. I was thinking he would be more Co-OC/QB Coach with Eric Kiesau Co-OC/WR Coach. Guess we will see his title soon.

So far, Miami doesn't have that type of coaching background on staff.
