Official The OC Candidates Thread 2.0

[OrangeBowlMagic]

I see Applewhite made it back to the board..I thought people were high on him before? Something must have changed?

I think they were just high.

 

[Mackmiller974]

He was the hot commodity when Manny fired Enos.

I thought it was before we hired Enos

 

[JayCane20]

It’s no longer 2019 and we have more results to consider in forming our opinion?

Not to mention we pay our OC **** near $2M a year now vs $500-750k in 2019

 

[Mackmiller974]

If you guys are tired of all the same old names I can put out a mackbammer suggestion list

May have been. With all the changes the last few years, it’s difficult to keep track of them all. Either way, Applewhite was the flavor of the month to quite a few.

 

[Alex Del Piero]

I thought it was before we hired Enos

Correct.

 

[Rickd]

Somebody mentioned that Radakovich has a really high opinion of Brandon Streeter ... does that give him a leg up with Mario? Will he be the next OC?

 

[Cribby]

But why interview these bums anyway? Or are you saying they’re fake names being leaked out.

I know some of them have been on campus or spoke with Mario but that doesn’t mean they’re the favorite or even interviewing for OC. Every coordinator hiring under Mario caught people off guard. That’s a trend.

I’ve had mental health battles less depressing than this OC search

 

[Salt]

Maybe a QB coach?

Maybe co-oc/qb w/ playcalling. Coley co-oc/ wrs?

 

[KANE]

looks like the same bunch **** gattis was running

Nope. Nothing like Gatass stuff at all. I actually seen motion (from WR, Y, and TE) and Quick WR screens, think I saw a Power/pass or two… with pulling OL. RPOs, I saw a lot of Pistol formations, waggle passes outta pistol, true Zone Reads. Counter passes. I even seen a couple of Y crosses. This stuff is NOTHING like Gattis if u know what you’re looking at. Gattis was resorting to running Flea Flickers against teams like GSU…. because he had no clue how to get muhfuccas open. I seen more ny99as running wide open in that one film clip than I seen running open in all our games last year, combined. He’s not a **** name in 2023, he’s a bit long in the tooth, but the guy can still call an effective offense. But football ON ANY LEVEL… is an “outta sight, outta mind” business. You go away or down a level or two, for a few years and people forget about you.

To play devil’s advocate on his behalf. Especially since in the end we don’t know everyone here personally in general. Some do and alot don’t. But I will speak on experiences I had.
Perhaps he is just trying to provide some info as best as he can without divulging enough that could create a problem for him? Maybe just even the slightest of info could do that?
I say that cus many moons ago, I brought up some info that was legit, and I honestly was doing it just to inform the guys here and add value to the info brought here, with no aspirations of wanting any “cred”. I did my best to not have it be obvious where it came from. Suffice it to say, that it was obvious from the people I am close to, the same people in my personal life I am close friends with and value. It angered them, rightfully so l, and took awhile for me to gain their trust. It is why, though not common, there have been times I have been privy to certain information and now I don’t even attempt to try and be careful in giving that out.
He might be in that precarious a position where he doesn’t want to risk even that?

Just trying to provide another point of view before burning a man at the stake for being a “witch”

 

[TRick72]

This all has to be a sick troll by Mario and the media.

 

[Calinative]

...When Major Applewhite became HC of Houston, the person he hired as OC/QB coach? Brian Johnson.

That dude was talking out of his ***. 90% of the people that post don’t know don’t jack **** about offensive playcalling. People may not like Applewhite and that’s fine. I don’t give a ****, but saying he runs the same offense as Gattis is not accurate.

Just sent a snip of that tweet from Barry to a friend who is an associate AD at a prominent SEC program.. his response..

“Zero chance he wants to make that move and even less chance Dan actually lets him make that move even if he wanted to. Career suicide.”

10 minutes later

“We’ve done all we can to keep him away from someone on our staff”

 

[JamesQuall]

You misunderstood what I said but I’m too lazy to explain it. All good. I’ll **** off and eat ****s.

So not somebody we want after Gattis? lol
