Re: Plain Trouble on "Da Plains" (all AU posts here)

I wonder if there's hesitancy by candidates fearing that all Gus wants them to do is run his offense and doesn't want them to have any input of their own? Cuz you know Gus is proud of his offense.
Based on what I've read, seems like Gus wanted someone to come in and improve his offense, but not necessary changing the offense as a whole. I think that's the negative part that is keeping coaches from taking the job on the staff. I think Gus had trouble filling spots in the recent years... If he doesn't make a good hire, then he's definitely gone after this year. You shouldn't be struggling to find the right OC just like that. If you want someone to improve offense, why not promote within the staff ?

That would be a downward move on a resume. No way LR leaves a blue blood program like OU and goes to Auburn.
Riley would be better off staying one more year because he will be contacted for HC Gigs next year. Going to Auburn and not do well will hurt him. He has to be smart about that. He could be using Auburn as a leverage to get more money.

The Oklahoma St OC removed his name from consideration today.......at this point I think they may just have to promote from within.

Travis Haney of 247 reporting Texas A&M OC Noel Mazzone appears to be the guy. Hire is expected to be made by the end of the week.

So Mazzone is jumping from one sinking ship to another. I guess that shows how bright he is.

Looks like he's staying at A&M
How many times is Gus going to get turned down. Gus is such an offensive genius I guess he just needs to be the HC and OC. Would save the Barn about $500k this coming year and they are going to need all the cash they can get with Gus' buyout.
