I think it is going to be Azzanni. And I will be good with that. Then also bring in a QB coach. Peyton obviously.:)

Quarles or Debord? One has no college experience & the other hasn't coached in almost a decade. That's the two names I've seen discussed the most, but IMO it won't end up being either one.

Such a "sky is falling" mentality when there is speculation of hiring a guy that VN doesn't find a "splash hire" or fit what YOU are looking for. Never mind what the head coach, who spends everyday with the kids, staff, recruits wants. He has paved an amazing road so far so why do we doubt his vision and who he has in mind to be a part of it.
VN would rather make arguments to fit their agenda like he hasn't been employed since 2007. When was the last time Gruden was "employed" but you would have jumped on him and his absence from coaching would have been absolutely ok. Give it a rest and let the big boys do their job and steer the ship.

You make a great point.












Hire Gruden.

I read the first 5+ pages and started losing faith humanity. Long blocks of text about how terrible a hire this is, Butch is too loyal, etc.

The guy who started this **** thread has no idea and people start licking windows and freaking out.

Wait for an actual source and breathe with your mouth closed please.

Is it possible that Coach Jones might be looking at some of the FCS level coaches as candidates? Are there any up and comers that might be a good fit?

Can't be excited about DeBord. He's too old, wasn't successful as a head coach, and Michigan has not exactly been cutting edge when it comes to offense, even if he won a national title with the ugly helmets years ago. I'd like to see someone proven but younger, who is hungry.

DeBord was OC several years ago when Michigan was successful. At Michigan, he served as offensive line coach from 1992-1996. In 1997, he was promoted to offensive coordinator. During DeBord's first year as offensive coordinator in 1997, Michigan won their first national championship since 1948. As the offensive coordinator at Michigan, DeBord posted a 52–11 record.

Hmmm....let's look at that 1997 Michigan team, eh? I could be wrong, but the defense was actually which won games for them. Time is different now. You better know how to score big.

1997 Michigan Wolverines football team - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


And let's be honest here. DeBord was at Michigan when Charles Woodson was there AND pretty boy Brady. disgusting... if this guy ever says his dream job is to be the OC at TN, I'm finding the tallest bridge and say my prayers.

Gosh dangit people. I understand this isn't the most rational place on the internet(is there any rational place on the internet?), but just because someone interviews doesn't mean he is getting the job. Also, I wouldn't know how to put together an offensive game plan for big boy football if I had Bill Walsh holding my hand, so you know what I am going to do??? I am going to trust the man in charge. Not blind trust but proven trust that "he gets it", and has yet to do anything to shake that trust. Look around at our program. If you can't trust in this guy to hire the right guy then you just don't have it in you. Move to the woods and hunt for squatches...

In 1997 Urban Meyer was the WR coach at ND, Les Miles was the TE coach for the Cowboys, Spurrier was winning big at Florida and Saban was the HC at Michigan St. The youngest is Meyer at 50.

That should just tell you how great of coach DeBord is then. He obviously stuck around with these guys to compete against them and move up in the world of college sports.
