Did you watch the CFP semi finals? He wasn't there and Clemson was lost on offense.

They weren’t lost. They got punched in the mouth by a team bent on revenge. And who cares. Being a good OC for Trevor Lawrence means nothing about him as a hc anymore than Pruitt being a dc for Bama means he’s a good HC. We can’t take that risk right now. Let him go coach at coastal when Chadwell gets a better job

If we’re seriously going the route of hiring someone that has zero head coaching experience, then give me Jarod Mayo.

He has learned under arguably the greatest coach of all-time and he was just interviewing for NFL head coaching gigs. It would be another stress-inducing experiment that likely ends in disaster, but at least the guy is an alumni and knows what this place means to the fanbase. He would be here cause he wants to be here, and not just be here for the fat paycheck like Elliot.

Because he’s an experiment.

It’s a risk because you don’t know what you’re going to get out of him.

Not to mention, he had loads of talent to work with under one of the best coaches in college football.

The SEC won’t be like that when he’s going up against teams with more talent than him.

No experience. None. 0. We’ve done the coordinator route.

People are yelling recruiting ties! Pruitt had those. People are yelling elite offensive mind! They said the same about Pruitt’s defensive mind.

It would be incredibly stupid to fire a first time HC who was a coordinator for the best team in college football only to hire another first time HC who is a coordinator for the other best team in college football.

DISASTER

Scott Frost went undefeated and plenty of people don't want him either.

You said his body if work was fine but still didn't mention anything outside of the 2020 season.

People sure as hell wanted Frost in 2017. And I don't understand the digs on Chadwell's past. He has done well elsewhere. It's not like he was a bum everywhere else and then stumbled into one good season. The biggest knock against him is that CSU regressed in his 4th year (they have also regressed without him). Everywhere else he was trending up.

Hiring him today would be hiring him at the peak of his career.

Maaaaan, how fun is this? We finally fired Pruitt and Fulmer, we then realized we have some serious big time admin in Plowman and Boyd, the younger big money boosters decided to break out the wallets, hired a top 4 AD, we’re about to hire a top tier HC and spring ball is around the corner.

Smiling from ear to ear this morning...

I said it’s great to be a Tennessee Vol!!!

We need a coach who can look at a roster and develop it from the bottom up and that flat out is not Tony Elliot. The man had Deshaun Watson and Trevor Lawrence to call plays for among 5 star WRs, RBs, OL, and more. It would be bad if he didnt win a championship with them.

I 100% trust Danny White's decision even if it is Elliot, but he has no history of developing a roster of 5 stars to 0 stars like we have now.

Major experience difference. Mayo has only been a coach for 2 years and never called plays. Elliott has been a coach for many more and called plays.
Click to expand...

If you’re a good head coach, you shouldn’t be calling the plays anyway. That’s the point of your coordinators. You should be managing the game not running the offense.

You’re literally pulling that out of your butt. Elliot has never been a Hc. Meanwhile Chadwell is coach of the year who went 11-1, lost to Freeze in OT, beat a top ranked BYU team, and finished in the top 10. Not to mention has built programs and won everywhere he’s been.

But sure, Jan. No experience Elliot is better 😒
