I would assume that Littrell would know who the best young postiion coaches are. He has worked and played with so many. Meacham has been at 3 FBS schools (2 P5s and 1 G5). Meacham has been a FBS OC for 3 years. He has 13 years as OC below the FBS level and has been a coach a total of 27 years with 14 being at the FBS level. Littrelll has been at 5 FBS schools (all P5s including Kansas which isn't much of a P5 but he was there under Mangino). Littrel has been a FBS OC for 6 years and has been a coach for a total of 14 years all at the FBS level. Just saw that Littrell is an Okie from Muskogee by golly. Merle Haggard, I mean, Seth Littrell for the win.

No other CUSA openings at this time. Just about all of those guys listed will be going P5. I think either of our candidates will frighten the other CUSA coaches once they see our improvement on offense.

Not picking sides here but Littrell calls the plays for UNC and the Co-OCs work under him.

Littrell followed OU folks around until he got to UNC. We could do worse than him or Meacham. They are both good hires. The funny thing is, Littrell was linked to our job jokingly very early by some blog because he looks somewhat like the Friday Night Lights tv show head coach. I figured he just wants to be closer to home.

LSU is gonna end up kicking themselves just like Tennessee did with Fulmer and Texas did with Mack.

I was there. It was fun to watch. I was watching Jinks on the sideline because I thought he was a legitimate candidate, guess he isn't. Charile's job is safe for another year unless he decides to get out while the gettin's good as they say. He will be gone after next season if he doesn't leave on his own after this season.

This guy also works at TCU and has some familiarity with our athletic programs.

I remember seeing him in a restaurant in Austin about a month before Herman hired him. He was just sitting there with some older guy, nobody even noticed him but me. I didn't say anything to him because I didn't want to disturb the guy while he was eating.

He wants Willie Fritz and the cost would be for us to join a P5 conference which won't happen before signing day so that's a no go.

He was actually the only coach retained from Mack's staff by Charile Strong. He was let go after the 2014 season. I suspect he was largely retained to keep Mack's top state of Texas 2014 recruits(Heard).

If Meacham could get Curtis Luper, his college teammate and TCU RB coach, we might have that recruiting spark we need. Luper recruited both Cam Newton and Michael Dyer to Auburn and that worked out pretty well for a year.

Meacham has set many records directing offenses below the G5 level so I'm sure he can relate to our plight just as much as a FCS head coach could.

I like that he is an alumnus and was friendly to me when I got his autograph in /Austin but I don't think he is what we're looking for this time.

Story about Jinks ascent in the SA paper.

Saw this on a WKU site. Apparently we have the second most experienced coaching staff in all of CUSA. I did not know that.

Went to the Texas/Texas Tech game last night. Jinks is easily the most active coach on the Tech sidelines. He seems t o be a good motivator/encourager and Deandre Washington is a fantastic back under Jinks tutelage.

This video describes my feelings on this hire after seeing who is not in the top four.

Applewhite is not P5 so I doubt he is one of the 4.

Does Nathan Elliott have a dog? And if so, is it named Ray and/or properly fenced in?

I'm guessing Spavital, Littrell, Meacham or Cumbie, and the fourth is harder to guess but I'd say Tim Beck, Rhett Lashlee, or Josh Henson. Either way, I'm not terribly excited about any of these.

The fact that none of those 4 is even a finalist is a little unsettling to me. I get the feeling this might be another meh hiring. I hope we aren't doing this same song and dance 4 years from now. Hopefully if we are it will be with a new AD.

lol, that was a good one. I voted for the Texas Rattlesnake. I'd love to tell SMU next year that North Texas 3:16 says I just whipped your ass. He'd give a hell of a press conference..

You sure that wasn't a nightmare?
