Candidates to replace David Johnson?

As bad as my Raiders look. Maybe we could Gruden to coach the running backs. Or maybe not.

Would someone explain the Kenyan Drake joke?
There's an NFL running back named David Johnson, he got hurt and the Cardinals acquired Kenyon Drake in a trade to fill in and he ended up being one of the hottest RBs in the the last half of the season.

Not funny if it has to be explained, maybe not funny to begin with.

Yes. Last time he coached RBs here we had 2 1000 yard rushers and went to Atlanta with a 3rd string QB. Would hate for that to happen again.
Last time he coached here he accused Fulmer of being a racist and has since sued Auburn for racism. Hes doing just fine where he is, UT doesn't need that attention right now.

Appreciate it. I don’t have an NFL team and don’t kid up with it as much as others.

He made a smart remark about being passed over for a promotion 12 years ago. And he didn’t sue Auburn University, he sued his sons HS over being allowed to wear braids.......and he won.

Auburn City School System, my bad. However, he burned bridges here and I would be shocked if Pruitt would even give him the time of day. There are better options out there from a recruiting standpoint as well, Frank Wilson being one of them.

I know its not as easy as just backing up a brinks truck to the home of the best rb recruiter in the nation but id damn sure try it. We HAVE to land a few more high quality RBs and i dont know why weve struggled to do so since Kamara. We have a young but talented Oline and a GREAT OC as well as a borderline 5 star QB coming in and are in the SEC. What are we missing to get in these kids ears? If only we could recruit RBs and Dline as good as we seem to linebackers and OT.

Eric Gray is going to be a star

More wins on the field is what it's going to take to get the attention of 5* skill players.
 
Priority should go to whoever is the best recruiter...Although all coaches are important, RB and TE position coaches are usually the least important....Get the best recruiter you can find. Tell him to coach RBs
