He has a co-DC ag UGA(He is the DC, Muschamp is the Co-DC). Both he and Kirby had to do the same thing when they left Bama. If he is announced now and is allowed to do both, which Kirby would allow, he would make it work.BadAggie said:
Only issue here is the timeline. He will be coaching until Jan. 10th or whenever most likely so you gotta navigate the portal and ESD.
Otherwise give him a deal with a decent guarantee and the incentives to be Jimbo Rich if he wins here.

I'm aware of how things go. However, one of our stated objectives was to find a "proven winner".

Do we know if he's actually in consideration?
TAMUallen said:
It's a possibility but he's never been head coach
TnAg23 said:
He has 6 championship rings and he's 33.
He was one of 3 people in the prime Alabama defensive meetings, alongside Saban and Kirby.
He was the first person Kirby hired when he got to Georgia
He is an Incredible Xs and Os Defensive Coach, Turned down the Eagle's DC Job
He is a better recruiter than anyone on our previous staff. He is personally credited with 12 5*s on 247.
He makes less than $2MM a year, with no buyout
He is Kirby's right hand man at Georgia, see quote below
"He's the son of a football coach. He's extremely bright. He's extremely passionate. I rely heavily on Glenn for input on practice schedules, defensive design, and thinking outside the box. There's not a time when I think of who can I ask my staff that understands what we want and what we need when Schu [Schumann] is that guy. He's very talented."
-Kirby Smart
Sure, he is a risk. But he is a risk with Championship potential. Traynor and Elko haven't done anything to show they have Championship potential.

Every head coach was a first time head coach at one point. Have to start somewhere.

You need to change your handle to BadTakesAggie because you have no idea what characteristics make a good head coach. When you start talking about conferences they play in, if they're 33 vs 50, you're way off. If our leadership is looking for a guy based on things like that we're screwed because the University has morons in power
Yes, not every Saban Smart assistant has worked out, but take a look at the current top 10, and let me know how many Saban/Smart guys make the cut.fightintxaggie10 said:TnAg23 said:

Maybe he would be good, but to say he has 6 championship rings is a little ridiculous. The waterboys and equipment guys get rings.
How many Saban assistants have failed as HCs? More than have gone on to win at a high level consistently. Do we not remember Alabamas DC who went to Tennessee and sucked? Jeremy Pruit. Just because you're a coordinator on winning program staff, doesn't translate directly to great HC.

Because Georgia is better than us, and learning under Kirby and Saban >>>>> Learning Under Jimbo.MagnumLoad said:
So, he didn't play and has not been a stand alone coordinator? I prefer Elijah Robinson. He is either the top recruiter in the country or in that discussion. We owe a lot of our top class to ERob. That talent should be near the top of qualifications.
To add, why are people in love with other team's assistants, but adverse to a great one already here?

Also, Schumann is the DC and has a Co-DC below him. Before that, he was one of two co-DCs. Same setup as DJ Durkin and ERob.
I hope ERob ends up being his DC.
Lanning is about 5 years older and was calling plays at the time. That's probably why he got picked.fightintxaggie10 said:
I forgot about UT getting told no by several people but now I remember that whole thing.
My question is, other than following the Dan Lanning 2.0 logic, which never works, why is Glenn Schumann expected to be able to run an entire program from hiring and managing assistants and position coaches, to managing NIL, and all that? I'm just curious why Dan Lanning was given the job at Oregon, when both he and Schumann were in the same position, Co-DC, at Georgia?
TnAg23 said:
He started on the Bama staff as a FRESHAN. Basically spent his undergrad years as a GA, then hit the ground running. This dude is the most impressive 33-year-old you will see.
18+15=33
and now the program owes a fired coach $77M, with no recovery if he gets another job somewher else.TAMUallen said:Coryhub said:
