Brian Hartline rumored for Cincy job along with Michigan DC Jess Minter.

Losing Hartline, hurts tOSU more than losing Minter hurts Michigan.
If their names are out there already maybe both will get offers at a couple jobs and both move on. Of course, we could lose Diaz along the way too.
I'm not positive Harbaugh is back next year.
If he is, it's probably not a matter of who is DC. They are running the Ravens defense. Last years DC came from Baltimore. Minter was at Baltimore for 3-4 years before a year at Vandy then to Michigan.
This off-season who got the job that was the first guy mentioned?
Yeah, sometimes it's obvious but see Wisconsin. Fickell wasn't one of the first handful of guys mentioned. Colorado offered Deion--no one projected that. Auburn didn't get Kiffin.
Distraction / and it worked. LK had to have meetings with his players to deny the rumors. Long history of gamesmanship between the two programs Egg Bowl week. ESPN on SXM even indicated that the “leak” was out of Starkville. It worked because of Kiffins past.
Sounds overly complicated to win a game between two teams not contending but if true and it worked then kudos to them
Yes please. Someone outside of the Big 10 hiring Hartline would be a nice benefit for PSU. He's been incredible in terms of recruiting and getting execution from his stable of 5 star WRs.
If not Cincinnati, Hartline is going to be offered a lot of jobs. But Cincinnati makes an awful lot of sense for him.
There is no way WRs Ohio St are recruiting right now will play for Hartline in the future. He's getting a shot somewhere and soon. The question is if he takes WRs on Ohio St's current roster with him wherever he goes.
Doubt any WRs would follow. Guess maybe those buried on the depth chart but not projected starters or anything.
Isn’t this about the time that self-interested Buckeye fans start downplaying Hartline’s coaching ability in order to keep him in the fold?
They proclaim he's rich from the NFL and loves what he does and has no interest in even being an OC.
I thought you Buckeyes claimed that he was the reason that 3 to 4 top 100 overall WRs commit to Ohio St every class and are content to ride the pine for a few years until they get their shot? Because what Hartline is teaching is so valuable?
Now you want us to believe that if the reason WRs flock to a cold, crime ridden city gets a bigger opportunity then his groupies won't follow?
You can keep pretending that I'm a Buckeyes fan doesn't make it true
I don't pretend to know anything about Hartline other than he's a young coach with an elite program so someone will hire him someday--I don't think yet honestly.
This off-season or next at the latest. He gone. You cannot offer him the OC (not co- in title only pretend OC) or head job and he is ready now.
Again, you're still pretending I care. I only care if he goes to Penn State or Northwestern. Or somewhere that impacts us. I think Cincinnati will get a much higher profile coach. If they get Hartline no issue with me
That's just crazy. Giving a position coach a huge jump to HC especially with no previous OC experience. I don't see him at OSU as the WR coach more than another year or two but straight to HC ? Nope. That has failure written all over it.
The Hartline rumor that could be realistic, though, is being hired as OC under Fickell at Wisconsin. They know each other well from their OSU days. Keep an eye on that one
I'm sure part of this tear down and investment is going to a spread attack. I can see this.
Tom Herman and Matt Campbell are the two names that keep popping up as both are Ohio natives and I could be wrong, but Herman is originally from Cincy
Herman makes sense. Campbell not sure about but he waited too long to leave so maybe
