Why will someone resign a HC job and become an OC?
First, I think this whole "Spurrier to A&M as OC" is laughable, but I see a reason why somebody like him would entertain the idea of being a coordinator over a HC. He has nothing left to prove as a HC. He's coached a Heisman winner, won a NC game, and made USCe a somewhat respectable program.

Given his age, maybe he's tired of the stress and everything that comes from being a HC? The media always on your back, being responsible for the actions of hundreds of people (kids), trying to constantly sell your program to recruits and the media, etc. I'm sure it grows tiring after a while. But like many others, he knows if he just goes home and sits, he'll whither away. Being an OC takes away a lot of the stress and responsibilities of the HC, but allows him to be involved and out doing something. Hell, my FIL was a VP at one of the major railroads, and once he hit his 30 years, he chunked the deuce and went into a manager role for a RR services company. He got tired of the stress, hours, and travel. Not a HC type thing, but the premise is still the same.

Suggestion if rojo is correct.
Irish Man should wear the cone of shame the vet gives your dog after surgery. He should wear the cone and eat the turd.

Thumbs up for Rojo. I don't necessarily believe him to be accurate but it takes hella huevos to double-down like this.

Also, "hella huevos" sounds like an awesome Mexican breakfast plate.

The next person posting after me has about as good of a chance to be the OC as OBC does.

Has it been determined if it's rojo as in RoJo or rojo as in red?

Those of you who are dogging on Spurrier for not being awesome at USCe do realize that he is the winningest coach in South Carolina history, right? He made a pile of dog poop into a respectable team.

I like spurrier and dumb bet aside, I think he'd be a good hire.


But being the winningest coach at South Carolina isn't saying much and his offense the last couple of seasons wasn't all that great.

My biggest reservation is he walked away from USC as a head coach mid-season because he just felt like he should. You'd be crazy to think he wouldn't do that here if he felt tired or whatever else the case maybe.

Nope. Premiums just aren't ready to hand over the keys to just any swinging deek that posts here. A healthy dose of skepticism doesn't hurt anyone.

I want to say something on behalf of Spav and Sumlin, especially to those saying he should just "step aside."

Football is this man's livelihood, this is not just something he does for kicks like all of us. He has been mentioned even in the last couple of weeks as possible candidates for HEAD coaching jobs. For him to hold out for a new gig is entirely reasonable, and for Coach Sumlin to give him that time is honorable. Coach Sumlin has behaved this way since he's been here, he's been extremely loyal to Texas A&M, and he's demonstrated that he is absolutely committed to building a champion here.

For him to hurry up at expense of one of his hires, for nothing more than to satisfy a bunch of impatient millennial types on here who think they deserve some sort of instant gratification is unreasonable.

A very wise person once told me that if you want to judge what someone is likely to do, look at their track record. It had become very clear that the defense needed a change last year, and we went through exactly what we are going through now, with the one difference being that Snyder was let go. It's understandable why Sumlin hasn't let Spav go yet but I still have every expectation that Sumlin can see much more plainly than any of us what needs to be done, and based on his track record, will do something to fix it.

So everyone should just chill out, including Rojo.

If Spav is staying and Spurrier is hired, who is getting fired?

Not buying it - Spurrier is 70 yrs old.

Same here, this makes no sense with younger more innovative OC's in the coach world.

Uhm... Don't think you'll find a more innovative coach than Steve Spurrier.

Not sure why everyone is excited for a 70 year old OC, spurrier needs to retire. Spurrier hasn't done anything since he was at Florida. Sumlin will be gone next year when we win 8 games again.
