[Lion78]

Perfect fit

[LoyalandTrueLion]

Charlie Weis

They did widen the tunnel

 

[NJLions]

Urbs isn’t going anywhere this year.

Urbs is getting canned. Big time.

 

[Chickenman Testa]

Perfect fit
John L

I’d drive the Uhaul for him myself.

 

[Ten Thousan Marbles]

Jason Candle

 

[PSUQBKeeper]

they'll try to poach Brohm maybe

 

[Howie'81]

I suspect tOSU would make a hard push for James Franklin. Sadly, I’d be worried if that happened. It certainly would make things incredibly strained within the B1G.

Won't happen.

Oh, LOL.

This will be OSU's list

1. Dabo
2. Franklin
3. Herman
4. Chip
5. Dan Mullen/Matt Campbell

As a Penn State fan first and an Iowa State grad ……. I really hate to see Campbell on that list

 

[heckmans]

Richie Kotite is the man for the job!!!!

Sweater vest?

 

[Elwood Blues]

LJ didn't get offered a job by CJF.

Am I wrong on that? Anybody know the details?

He was our biggest loss in all of this.

I thought he left after he didn't get the HC job, but before JF selected.

 

[Ten Thousan Marbles]

I am certain that we can rule out Art Briles.

Louis Freeh. He'd keep an eye on the program.

If I were at tOSU I would not want a top assistant, a well-respected guy who has not won big, or an alum who "could" bring back the glory. tOSU is at the top tier and they have no reason to settle for anything less.

Here are my three "replacement" targets.

David Shaw, Stanford - Would be tough to get away from the Cardinal, but he is a winner. Give him the national recruiting base at tOSU and they could plug in 11 win seasons for the next 15 years.

Mark Richt, Miami - By all accounts a good guy. He lacks the trophies that a young Urban had collected, but he would be an immediate force that would produce wins.

Chris Petersen, Washington - Squeaky clean, Urban without baggage, and a winner everywhere he has been while working with *** talent at best. If they could get him away from the West Coast they would not lose a step.

Richt left Georgia and look how much better they have become in such a short time. I would never hire Richt if I wanted to win MNC. Good guy, yes. Winner, don't think so.

Kirby Smart's first year produced two more losses than the previous three years under Richt. Last year was outstanding, but let's see how he does before he gets crowned the savior in Athens.

Richt would not be my top choice, but tOSU should not settle for less than him. A Campbell, Brohm, or some hot-shot assistant should not be in their future.

Joe moorehead's name is being thrown around that could be very bad

 

[Breeze90]

No there's way OSU would be happy with Moorhead. They're are going to shoot for the stars first

 

[flash86]

Urbs is getting canned. Big time.

Advantage to canning Meyer is that it may distract from Jordan and the wrestling doctor. Harder for OSU to throw a sitting Congressman under the bus.

I loved Mooreheads offense, but I don't think he has the personality to compete at BIG Time level. He's a nice guy and all, but in listenign to him at the bowl game he just doesn't seem to have that energy and excitement most of the top coaches bring to the table. CJF is the absolute best at this and it shows in a BIG way on TV.

I’m not sure Petersen is all that squeaky clean.

When OSU hired Tressel they showed they were willing to take hirering risks. Tressel was a great coach from a 1AA powerhouse, but not what the fans or media expected.

0% chance. Herman was on the staff in 2015 when this whole episode with the coaches/wifes happened. Everybody from that time will be gone/never welcomed back.

Tom Herman was hired at Houston in Dec of 2014 so he wasnt on the staff in 2015. Those he was born in Ohio but was raised in California, most of coaching career as been in Texas area
