Maybe Littrell will be the offensive mind of TD (or better) coupled with the college experience we wished TD would have had.

I went back and found it at the 22:50 mark of the press conference. He did not say they were the top 3, he just mentioned that the quality of the search can be demonstrated by the fact that 3 of the candidates that they interviewed were named FBS HC. "We weren't just interviewing anybody". We know they interviewed Littrell and Frost, the most likely other new HC that they would have interviewed is Norvell.

Anyone notice when RV dropped a nugget during the PC implying that their 'top 3' guys all received a HC gig. It seemed to me he was implying Meacham was not a finalist and that what was being written was not very factual. If he is telling the truth, then the three guys would have had to be: Seth Littrell (UNC) hired by UNTMike Norvell (Arizona) hired by MemphisScott Frost (Oregon) hired by UCF

The spread was designed to be effective even when you don't have the best athlete at each position, much like the triple option. Each offense seems to live and die by the guy running the show (QB). We don't have to have a team full of 3+ star athletes, but we do need the right guys at a few key positions on offense, especially QB. On defense, it will be interesting to see what he does. Most of the offensive gurus give defense lip service, but don't normally put up great numbers on D.

Can't believe someone already updated the coach's name. I would expect this at most places, but have become to expect so much less. It will be hard to see many of these names retained. Maybe a couple. Seth Littrell - Head CoachMike Canales - Offensive Coordinator/QuarterbacksChris Cosh - Defensive CoordinatorMike Grant - Wide Receivers/Recruiting CoordinatorNick Quartaro - Assistant Head Coach - Tight EndsMike Simmonds - Offensive LinePerry Carter - SafetiesKevin Patrick - Defensive LineLaMarcus Hicks - CornerbacksTommy Perry - Running Backs/Special Teams CoordinatorScott Conley - Director of Football OperationsLewis Caralla - Strength CoachThomas Sheffield - Graduate AssistantBrandin Byrd - Graduate AssistantMason Y'Barbo - Graduate AssistantNic Summerfield - Graduate AssistantKyler Hiatt - Graduate Assistant - Strength and ConditioningIt will definitely be an exciting off season. Welcome aboard coach Littrell!

That is crazy. Where are the other 7 wins going to come from?

Looks like standard issue Mariott lobby if I were to hazard a guess.

Decent chance he stays in the same place the team stays before games down by the Speedway.

He gets the added benefit of not having to go to class while UNC looks the other way.

If Smatresk is serious about this he knows that an outdated AD has to go. Simply putting a new coach in a broken support system is simply throwing away money.

Does Smatresk refer to RV as 'the AD'?

Unless their AD's name is Dick Villareal.

Maybe they are following UNT and not Benford?

Go-ahead run is at fifth...on what Adams is insisting on calling it a botched robbery. What actually happened was...his henchmen took a piece literally out of.

Ok, now I am officially worried.

...but if it means RV is gone, would it be worth it?

This would be classic RV.

Aston was another coach that was hired away, but the point remains, we have hired poorly.

Are you positive they were the ones that said no and not the other way around? Maybe, maybe not. Probably so with Riley though.

It is definitely a possibility. There were comments made that could be interpreted to mean that they wanted Meacham but couldn't come to terms.

Don't you mean welcome to the board, Doug?

...or Daniel Kahn.

Gladly. Can't wait.

Looks like Alabama is in the market for a DC, so it shouldn't be long.

From the sounds of it, we had a pretty nice lineup of coaches we spoke with. Based on confirmed/rumored interviews, the list included: Seth Littrell Doug Meacham Scott Frost Kendall Briles Lincoln Riley Mike Jinks That looks like a pretty nice list to me. Are there any missing?
