Kevin Johns, Seth Littrell, Kevin Decker. That should be who we target and we can get all of them for less then what we paid Gerdis

This search is starting to feel like creeping death, if this hire isn’t a good fit I feel this program may fade to black

I honestly believe that Mario will do great things here and that he is the best recruiter in the country. But his hiring process and evaluation is ****. Please remind what Alonzos job is again, I'm sincerely asking.

I don’t know what Miami is doing. I was told this was done last week and then the name I was floated isn’t even in the running apparently.

Candle’s a good recruiter and mediocre head coach. His schemes are dog****.

Bring in a guy who is scheming offenses for this century.

Man, I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I wish Mario would just turn the page on Candle and spit out the bone. Am I savage for feeling this way? Maybe, but Mario must dream no more bc right now an OC hire feels like the day that never comes. He's acting like a master of puppets treating all these candidates like disposable heroes. I wish we could welcome home (sanitarium) Ken Dorsey but he's not walking through that door, sad but true.

Mario really needs to nail this one bc nothing else matters and it would be a great suicide & redemption story.

Care to share the name?

A nod to the earlier thread derailing - a bunch of Metallica songs woven in.

Let’s asume the deal was wrapped up by late Friday or sometime this weekend. It is understandable that Candle would like to speak with his staff and team on Monday.

With that said, if this isn’t announced or confirmed by a reputable insider that the deal is “done” by Monday, then it ain’t happening. It’s as simple as that…next man up.

Personally, I’m okay with the “next man up” route provided it’s somebody like Littrel or Frost. If the next man up is Arroyo or Coley then we are f^ked

This isn’t the corporate world where things operate Monday to Friday business hours, so that excuse is bull****.

There have been plenty of times where a team meeting was called on a Saturday or Sunday to tell the team “I am leaving.”

True. Just giving the benefit of the doubt on why it would take a day or two more. Perhaps, a quick background check after a verbal agreement before he puts ink to paper.

Doesn’t matter really…we will have our answer tomorrow one way or the other.
