New OC - throw out some names/statistical anomalies

[Giddyup]

Short List

Mike Denbrock
Slade Nagle
David Shaw
Tom Herman

David Shaw is unemployed. Great idea.

 

[ulukinatme]

George Godsey, Baltimore Ravens TE coach.

Barry Lunney Jr, Illinois OC

George, brother of the great Gary Godsey!

David Shaw

No thank you.

I got the sense he hated where the college game was headed. We need someone that is going to embrace NIL and the portal (the ND way).

 

[NDdomer2]

Call me crazy, but might have something to do with running the offense that the Heisman winning QB played in.

Is that development or play calling?

 

[Giddyup]

I would just be thrilled with a name that indicates ND is willing to expand beyond the ball control, under center, phone booth football we saw this year.

That’s MF’s comfort zone. That ain’t gonna happen.

 

[jprue24]

Difference is Denbrock's offense did it against the best competition last year.

In the loss to Bama, LSU still put up 475 yards. Their lowest output in terms of points was against FSU Week 1, and they still put up 460 against a very good defense.

LSU's offense was incredible last year. I can't believe people would actually have a problem with Denbrock, LOL.

Qualify your reasoning away, man.

Hard pass on 2016 coaches.

 

[Riddickulous]

As I said in the other thread, he wouldn't be my number #1, maybe partly because I haven't given much thought to who would be. But, I'd be very excited about him developing next years offense.

People also tend to forget that he was very good with WR development during his time at ND. He's just an all around very good coach.

Tight ends, too. Tyler Eifert blew up in 2010-11 when he was TE coach. He also helped to develop Anthony Fasano when he was here under Willingham.

Can't use that sign .... michigan already stole that one1

 

[irish4ever]

Hartline is interesting because you know his recruiting will be incredible, but how long would he even be around?

Hopefully thru next year's natty!

 

[IrishEyesAreSmiling]

Urban Meyer.

 

[irish4ever]

Please no to Charlie Weis, Jr. It has nothing to do with him as a person or a coach.

I suppose you're thinking that he wouldn't bring a 'schematic advantage"!?

 

[Pops Freshenmeyer]

He might be great but I would prefer not to deal with (what will end up being) constant handwringing about his father's tenure at ND.

 

[gregm83]

I heard Bud Kilmer was also available. Not a very outside the box thinker though—prefers his quarterbacks to stick to the basics.

a lot of qb runs in the redzone incoming.

 

[Kingbish01]

I know Denbrock keeps getting mentioned, but what are the odds MF can pull BK's OC and a groomsman at his wedding??

 

[IRISHDODGER]

ISD is saying Freeman's first call will/should be to Denbrock.

Didn't he just sign a big extension at LSU?

Why b/c he had a once-in-a-generation QB who just won the Heisman? Not saying he’d be bad. Also not sure why he’d leave LSU for a lateral position?

 

[IrishMoore1]

Ludwig still available?

It has to be essentially zero unless there is some sort of unrest behind the scenes at LSU.

FWIW, Sampson indicated that Freeman has a person in mind and it's an external candidate. I'm betting he's going to throw everything he can at Hartline.

Probably about the same as convincing Hartline to leave pOSU and coach TE's at ND.

 

[calvegas04]

Not sure why we would want Hartline, other than pull some recruits what has he done?

 

[IrishSteelhead]

TIL Brian Kelly drinks Bud Light, but I feel like we already knew that without photographic evidence

At least in Hartline's case I think there's a reasonable chance he's unhappy with this current situation.

Agreed, I'd guarantee it's Hartline...

 

[Pops Freshenmeyer]

Also, is that Rex Ryan in the middle, there?

Is Hartline a fit, though? They just brought Mike Brown in, they don't need a WR coach. And there's no reason to believe Hartline was calling plays.

 

[Kingbish01]

I'd give Kevin Wilson a call, may not be a great HC but his offenses speak for themselves.

 

[Katzenboyer]

I'd give Kevin Wilson a call, may not be a great HC but his offenses speak for themselves.

He'd never clear the vetting process at ND.

But I do agree he is a great OC, and I think he was the true brains behind OSU's most recent, dominant passing offenses.

 

[Jiggafini19Deux]

Would be very happy with any of the guys from this group. Also just throwing it out there...Brennan Marion

I'm a pass on Liam Coen.

Kirby Moore has Petersen and DeBoer ties. Hardcore yes.

I don't know much about Faulkner.

Yep, Oklahoma too. That Sam Bradford '08 offense was crazy good.
