NEW OC Speculation MegaThread

kingwoodgreen · January 29, 2019

if I was Seth I would be happy for Graham’s with his new high profile gig. You should be good with your guys getting new opportunities. But taking some your existing crew may be something he does not appreciate. Don’t know but when I had employees leave I wished the the best but do not recruit my other team

I'd be on board with promoting Mainord to OC, holding onto Filani and letting John David Baker slide into a full time role as QB coach. Filani and Baker seem like good candidates to follow Graham given how close they all are, but would love to keep some continuity with our offensive staff.

Consolidating all of the OC threads into this one.

I like this and then add Shanbour as a grad assistant or to replace Baker.

Inside wide receiver coach always been the OC under the Leach tree

Promote from within Mainord a no-brainer

Name to watch with Seth connections and Leach tree - Dave Nichol

There is another thread/article that suggests that Fine be a player-coach. Shanbour would be a better choice.

Starting with coach Canales, he's coached just about every QB that's been brought into the program for the last three-four years. Coaching is his chosen profession.

This simply MUST happen.

EDIT: The rest of the stuff about promoting all of these internal people just because they're already here is for the birds though. If Littrell wants to elevate Mainord, that's fine. But I hope he brings in several other new guys to offer fresh perspectives.

Very good name!! Leach Tree and he graduated high school from Dallas. But he is currently making a little above what Graham was making. Would he leave Leach and the Pac 12 for an OC position and equal pay to get back to Texas?

southsideguy · January 30, 2019

With all the coaching changes that have gone on I was only thinking one of the coaches would have gone this year. The OL coach. I sure SL will hire a qualified canidate for the position his next big pay raise could depend on it how successful we are this year.

Anyone ready to start predictions for the up coming season?

meangreenlax · January 30, 2019

Does Shanbour really need a 12th year at UNT? Time to go do other things bro.

He can finish his PhD and get two years formal coaching experience. Just depends on if he wants to stay here to do it and if the feeling is mutual. Given what the coaches have said and with GH moving on, it honestly just makes too much sense.

golfingomez · January 30, 2019

guys...

don't worry, i've been putting together my resume... although they stopped making NCAA football a few years back... i had an offense that was averaging 42 points per game...

I don't want to brag, but i'm pretty amazing at the game...

Pretty sure i could do what all those 'experts' do.
