Next ND Offensive Coordinator - the search

[FDNYIrish1]

Every one of these would be a massive dud

No shit. Did it really need italics?

 

[GATTACA!]

Brian Ferentz or Condoleezza Rice

 

[dublinirish]

I think his recruiting days are over. He's also 69. The expertise is there, but I don't he matches all the needs that Freeman wants from his staff. As discussed at length here at times, if ND wants him as an analyst, I'm all in.

he's working for the SEC commissioner's office these days

SEC to hire ex-coach David Cutcliffe to assist commissioner in football relations role

David Cutcliffe, who coached at Duke for 14 seasons after an earlier stint at Ole Miss, is returning to the SEC to "provide guidance to the SEC Commissioner's office for the purpose of enhancing the overall quality of football competition in the SEC."

Scott Frost
Joe Moorhead
Warren Ruggiero (Wake Forest OC)

Wonder if a NFL QB coach would be interested. Something similar to what LaFleur did during his time in South Bend.

 

[IrishSpartan]

They basically have to be a Qb coach also

Nothing?

If Sean Lewis left a MAC HC gig to be a P5 OC, Moorhead could definitely do it too. It's hard to win at most MAC schools, and Akron is one of the toughest places to win.

Bad team, bad program, bad school, bad city.

(I’m mostly not just saying that because I went to Kent.)

Yep. Akron went 2-10 last year. I dunno what the direction of their program looks like, or how big his appetite to be a HC. But if that keeps up Moorhead won't have the job for all that long. He could get a lot more money to coach a much better team at Notre Dame.

That would run Hartman right out of town. He left Wake Forest because he needed a pro style offense.

 

[Luckylucci]

With Moorehead's propensity to push the ball downfield and Hartman's efficiency at doing so, seems like quite the match. Though, if he turned down the Bama OC job, seems doubtful he'd take ND's.

Going HC to OC without being fired just doesn’t happen. Can anyone think of an example of someone actually doing this?

It literally just happened. Sean Lewis was the head coach at Kent State and he left to take over the OC position for Deion at Colorado.

 

[FDNYIrish1]

Did Moorhead ever interview for the Ravens OC job?

 

[NormND_44]

Barry Alvarez has been rumored to want to get back in the game..

Didn’t someone on coach Primes staff in Colorado do that just recently?

76 years and hasn't coached in a decade lol

 

[AdmiralBackhand]

Uncle Rico, hopefully.

He’s busy at the White Lotus😉

Your mother coached last night, trebek

 

[OhioIrish]

Gotta give Driskell a call, right? It’s a long shot, but I think you have to make a guy like that say “no thanks”.

Not necessarily, according to Loy.

 

[T-Boone]

I was going to suggest Lance Taylor but then saw he is HC at Western Nichigan now. He is doing well. Had a good year at Louisville.

 

[TheRealLynch51]

Yeah, he made some cryptic post about "not all people view different colleges the same way."

 

[stlnd01]

Remember Moorhead was a head coach in the SEC. He may have had his fill of all that. It's not for everyone.

 

[Katzenboyer]

Perhaps the same would apply to Ryan Grubb? Would love to see that.

(Chewing gum) Your avatar is funny because that's an oversized hat. It's funny becaue it's bigger than a normal hat.

Moorhead is Catholic. Maybe he views ND in a different light
