A Look at Possible New Staff

My hopes:

OC - Tom Herman

OL - Wickline

TE - Brewster

WR - Wyatt

RB - Porter/Applewhite

DC Bedford

DL Orgeron

LB Jean-Marie

DB Travaris Robinson (UF)

S&C Moorer

All the coaches other then Orgeron, Jean-Marie, and Robinson would have Texas ties. Orgeron can likely recruit anyone anywhere. Robinson is well thought of as a coach and recruiter and may want to jump off the UF ship before it sinks. I personally think Applewhite did a decent job considering the injuries and QB situation. I am thankful for McCoy's contributions but to say that he lacked most of the tools you'd want from a div 1 qb is probably fair. As a recruiter, Applewhite brought in most of the running backs on our team, held together guys during the worst times, and would allow a fair amount of continuity. Also, it's hard to judge an offensive playcaller under Mack, as he's been rumored to meddle on the offensive side going back to Greg Davis. Harsin was also well thought of and didn't have amazing success during his year.

 
Texas HC: Charlie Strong

(Spread O with run to set up concept. 50/50 run/pass)

OC - Tom Herman, top choice far and away. Scott Frost, only 1 year as OC calling plays but very good

OL/Running Game Coordinator - Klemm double or triple his salary, if necessary kidnap him <-agree, if no then Wickline from Ok St. -must get 1 of these 2.

TE - Tim Brewster - STUD. this call needed to be made already, ok i guess we can wait till monday late night to make it. co-recruiting coordinator Offense

WR - Darrell Wyatt, best coach on staff last year, great recruiter and teacher. keep. co-recruiting coordinator Offense

RB - Larry Porter is good but i would at least check to see if there is someone else that would be better.

Strong will have his input more on this side of the ball

DC - Vance Bedford

DL - Ed Orgeron, STUD. this call needs to be made b4 sundown today. give him what he wants. co-recruiting coordinator Defense, co-everything title.

LB - Brian Jean-Marie - will also be co-recruiting coordinator Defense

DB - Not Akina. not sure what options are available other than Robinson at Florida.

Take a look at Ron Cooper. He is avail and was the architect of the great LSU defensive backs. He's not a lights out recruiter but a great coach and evaluator.

 
I doubt Ricky is an option. He has stated he prefers the small college where he is. He's the one you believe when he says that.

 
Cooper could be a very good hire, we need good teachings more so in Big 12. if we have a couple of ace recruiters like Ed O & Tim B, they can get the talent here.

 
Lol. I dont think cs going to hire someone bc of that.
He's one of the top recruiters in college football. VY is the reason so many love him here. But he's better than anyone we've had since he left.

 
So maybe we'll hire him to work on the recruiting staff. We need a te coach
