sdogg 9,792 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Let's hope we can get an OC that knows how to use him or it's just a waste of talent. putnam6 and 95Dawg 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Unknøwn 13,572 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Kirby is committed to another season of Coley. Hes only getting a new primary OC if Coley leaves on his own. Bdawg58 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sdogg 9,792 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Why must we settle for Cooley? Surely we should be able to attract a better OC. datboilando 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AutumnEffect 1,004 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 (edited) I love Pittboss, and I'm glad for him, but there's one thing I really don't understand. Why didn't he take the OC job last year if he wanted a promotion? It's not like he could have known we were going to lose Holloman among other WR issues. The perspective was that Jake was an OC's dream. So why now? I know Arkansas means a lot to him, but dang. I'd be much happier with an opening at OC than trying to make due with Coley in year 2.

OC vs HC - I know you understand the difference. Pittman was making as much as the OC with less responsibility. I am sure Pitt just doubled his salary, went to a place he already liked, and is closer to his home of Oklahoma. It’s rare that coaches his age get that first opportunity to be head coach - much less at an SEC school. I 100% understand why Pittman didn’t want to be OC. Besides, Pitt is probably more qualified to be an HC than OC anyway. I am just not sure Pittman’s personality will fit being the lead dog. You don’t get to be the good cop all the time as the head coach - unless you are Richt - and then you end up not having accountability. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If the Dawgs are lucky enough to end up with Luke, I imagine he'll be off to a new destination in due time. If we are lucky, maybe we can coax Pitboss back. It would be cool to see him succeed at Arky though. At least they don't usually get in too many recruiting battles with UGA. Last I can remember was Hunter Henry. I wanted him so badly.

The Ole Miss team was irate he was let go. At the time one player said half the team wanted out if Luke wasnt their HC anymore. 95Dawg and AutumnEffect 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dawgfanbrock 604 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Maybe I was just looking at some board talk- didn’t see a lot of good reviews. Many saying didn’t coach up players at all- team loved him but that was about it. But thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That’s on the position coaches. I think Luke is a great hire as a position coach. He just doesn’t have it as a HC. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Unknøwn 13,572 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Luke did all he could do with what he had at Ole Miss. He inherited a complete mess from Freeze. He actually had them showing some promise this season. PapaJoe and 95Dawg 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dawgfanbrock 604 Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Ok would he maybe share some oc role? Big step down from hc to just ol? Can he be a decent play caller? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kurt Roper handle the plays at Duke and Freeze delegates between 2 guys but Luke was limited to the run game and less of the calls. Hes not as great of a recruiter as Sam Pittman but the two are comparable. You trust them to run the OL and bring in talent. 95Dawg 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
