I don't which is more stupid: thinking Spurrier is coming to A&M as an OC or actually hiring Spurrier to be OC.

not like he can be worse than Spaz. Come on people.

And the fact that there's multiple threads here and premium about this with no mod editing should tell you all you need to know

Whining about a rumor is the answer.

And spurrier would likely be an excellent OC. He had USC win 11 games, 3 years in a row before retirement speculation started hurting his recruiting. Look at the history of USC football. They have less history than Kentucky or vandy.

IF true. Big time college QB, & Heisman winner. Long time SEC head coach. Innovative offense and National Champion. Respected by one and all.


Yeah, I can see how some of ya'll would ***** about being hung with a new rope.

The negative with him is his offense the last few seasons at South Carolina and just walking away mid-season.

You're crazy to think he wouldn't do that here if he did it as the hc.

I'm pretty sure the AZ Cardinals are killing it with 3 senior coaches: Tom Pratt, 77, Tom Moore, 75, and Larry Zierlein, 68.

The stress level and time commitment difference between OC and HC is tremendous. Just having the pressure of being responsible for so many other people magnifies it exponentially. And it's not a long term answer, but who would be? Anyone we hire that succeeds will jump for a HC position. In the world of coordinators, Chavis and spurrier would likely be as a stable as it gets.

Spurrier is going to arrive at the press conference in a golf cart, slow down enough to wave to the cameras then head off to finish a back nine.

Nope! Even if it's junior, there's no loophole allowing you to not eat poo.

Everyone outside of this message board seems to think Spav is a talented young coach. Perhaps the idea is to bring in someone as a mentor for him for a couple of years?

I thought about that....would Spav take a demotion to QB coach and assistant OC to work behind Spurrier for a couple of years? I think thats about the only way (with a legend) to make that palatable.

Maybe........maybe.......

Bring someone in as a highly paid figurehead and trust Spav to do all the real work with our QBs? Hell no.

The media is just parroting some idea that got tossed out that Spav is a young genus. Examples that he really is? Nope, it's just lazy work by the media.

I'm as frustrated as everyone is with the offense. But do I think Spav knows more about what he is doing than just about everyone on here? Absolutely. And I also think people can learn and improve, usually.

I think it's probably a little far fetch, but I think the entire idea of Spurrier at A&M is far fetched.

I don't doubt he has a lot of upside. The issues are: a) he's clearly not ready to be an effective SEC OC now and he is getting his butt handed to him, and b) Sumlin didn't seem to have a clue how to help him either in the offseason or in-season. I don't personally think Spav is going to get fired. I do think he will get demoted or he will move on. If the Spurrier thing were true it might actually make sense from a mentoring standpoint.

Word. This and the coaching industry also tries to keep real opinions of competence out of the media. I would imagine there's not many SEC West Defensive coaches too impressed with our offense this year.

yeah i'm certainly not sure about his QB development either..but his recruiting impact has been huge. i wasn't suggesting "all of the real work" i mean not the offensive system or play calling. i'm not sure where we fall on his QB development with as young as our QBs are. keep in mind Chavis retained all of our defensive staff.

Reason I now believe ROJO is right! Staff just took down my Haley Graves thread, but have kept this one up and have not edited the title to say speculation! Rojo is right!!!!

Frankly I'm not that convinced that ANYONE really knows how talented these coaches are. I don't think much vetting happens at all... it's all about results and connections, both of which can be deceiving.

48th scoring O in 2011
46th in 2012
35th in 2013. (7th in SEC)

Unimpressed. These were in the east and in his glory years at SC (11 win seasons).

Looks like a swag, splash hire.

Lincoln Riley would've been a great hire.

Don't you think that he "walked away" because he had decided to take the A&M job and he was giving his backup a chance to audition for the HC job rather than waiting until the end of the year?
