It makes sense only if OC or Co-OC is in his title at ND. Otherwise he's making a lateral move regardless of where he was born.

DeBoer may know already that Grubb is interviewing and or close to landing an HC job. They could be locking down Shephard so that when a Grubb move is finalized it's already a done deal.

Everything moves faster behind closed doors than we realize.
FWIW, Shephard is already AHC and Passing Game Coordinator.

If we're talking looking at a Co-OC who is also the WR position coach, I would still recommend MF and staff look at Mike Shanahan (not related to the famous one!), current OC and WR coach at JMU, an 11-1 team with some accomplished WRs by the way! Oh and he has turned a nomadic QB - Jordan McCloud - into the #22 QB per CB Network and the JMU O into #33 on ESPN's top O list!

For every positive development we get in the transfer portal thread, I get an equal share of worry that the player simply won’t get properly utilized because of He Who Must Not Be Named.

If we lost 3 games, largely due to play calling, with Hartman, Estime, and a stellar defense (3.5 if you count Duke - we really did get lucky there), I really do wonder how low our ceiling is with this guy at the helms, and what people could possibly see in him to justify keeping him.

Only 2 play actions in a single game (Clemson)? When we have a significant running game threat coupled with Hartman? Are you kidding me?

BuT tHeY PlAyEd MaN… I don’t give a shit. You do it more than twice, because the LBs can still be caught cheating. This is pop warner level stuff.
If you chant Gerad three times in front of a mirror, he jumps out and calls a run on 1st down straight up the middle

Here's a decent list that apparently are potential OC hires for the Pitt opening with Frank Cignetti Jr. getting canned over the w/e. Top of the list is Mike Shanahan. Mack Leftowich with Texas State and who has a top 10 ESPN 0 is also mentioned.

With Stuckey being let go and Parker leaning on Rudolph for better O line play a couple of weeks ago, seems it wasn't Parker after all.

A lot of you guys owe his thread an apology.

Maybe PA was distracting our wrs making them think it was actually going to be a handoff?!?!
