ESPN: Yurcich to Ohio State

Maybe Pruitt has decided offense is unimportant. Every time we get the ball we're going to immediately punt and try to score on defense and special teams.

Same thing happened in Atlanta.

I'm not rah-rah for Sark, though I think he'd be a pretty good hire. His offenses were 11th in the NFL in 2017, and 15th this year. Not as bad as one would think. And he was very good as OC at usc. I don't hold any coordinator too acountable for losing a game when they took over a week earlier and put up 31 points in a loss.

I joke in all seriousness, not really a issue. I expect a announcement on who it is after Wednesday.

Personally I lean towards Sark. And it be probably Friday at some point.
Have the 24 hour coverage, couple of big commitments during the all star games on Saturday. And get a solid 48 hours of positive coverage during a big 4 day stretch of football.

Lol every time there is a coaching search there is this same tired theory. If it's a HC they're going to announce Gruden during the SECC to get media coverage during the game ( Freeze being the exception here ). If it's a coordinator they're going to announce Randy Shannon as DC during the national title game or Army All American game. And it never has or will work out that way.

I usually don’t subscribe to this train of thought. However I get what you are saying and it does get annoying.

However there are some really big targets that have Tennessee in their top 3 playing in all star games this weekend.

And Tennessee hasn’t had that in a really long time.

This is what happens when you sit around twittling your thumbs. Meanwhile a G5 school is getting a coach from a top 25 P5 school.

Someone needs to get in pruitts earband remind him he’s not at Bama anymore. Good coaches aren’t gonna sit around turning down offers waiting for him to hire them. For the past decade plus we have been the team on the other end of that, we think we hired someone and at the last second they take another offer for whatever reason.

Will be interesting when this all comes out (presuming that it eventually does - the radio silence so far is amazing) to see who we actually offered vs who Pruitt interviewed but passed on. I am just hoping that if Pruitt and Co have a firm verbal with someone they have decided on a few weeks ago, that person actually comes on board. Lots can happen between a verbal and a signed contract.

Based on Yurcich's system, it would have been a strange fit, in any case. Makes more sense at Ohio St.

One possible scenario is that Kitchens was the "verbal" several weeks ago, but his stock has shot up in the last month making the deal voided by both parties. Possible, but who knows...
