Of course the kids are bummed. I've never met a teenager that enjoyed moving away from their friends. They'll thank their dad once their in their mid-late 20's. That said, I bet the family stays in Boone one more year, son is a junior. Yes, his son is a junior and wants to win a State Championship ...

He’s not ready for a HC job. Ivey may be.

Maybe. In my opinion, it’s either Horton or Sloan and then everyone else.

He did not specifically say Brown was coming. His name was mentioned twice and that might indicate he's going but Woody's name was mentioned as well. There’s a real easy way to keep Brown. He could probably make more as DC at Louisville than HC here. And as much as i hate to lose him, if he’s not r...

Why does he have to steal brown? Couldn’t he go get woody from ga tech? I mean if Brown doesn’t get offered by Satt he’s going to Ole Miss. either Brown is our HC next year or he’s not on the staff. You sure about that? I mean he may go to another school, Louisville or Ole Miss perhaps, but not as....

Geezus! Can you please stop quoting the whole thread each time you opine?

Since you guys are new at this, I'm going to share something to keep you buzzing as your coaching search hits high gear: https://flightaware.com/ You don't know coaching search drama until you start tracking chartered flights out of obscure airstrips and connecting imaginary dots to the guys on you...

The plus side for TH is that he is another Dale Jones. He want to be here and never leave. I know some posters know Horton personally. I do not, and don't know that much about him. That said, I'm as skeptical of this "this is his dream job, he'll never leave" stuff as I was when people said it abou...

Well I don't have any specific names in mind other than Horton, but here lies the problem with hiring the next guy. Satt left the cupboard pretty stocked for a two year run. You have to be careful that you don't hire someone that will benefit from the cupboard, reel off two 10 win seasons and then b...

Scott will talk to the existing S&C staff. They may be top notch. This isn’t like a Republican replacing a Democrat. Iron Mike and Ponce will go with Satt. I don't think there is any question about that. Not real worried about replacing Iron Mike though. The pressing need is to hire some play calle...

Calm down.............. Unlike other programs(UNC/UL) WE HAVE A LARGE Reach of APP STATE grads in the coaching pool. Just wait to start crying if DG makes bad decision.

Why wait to cry? Starting to complain about the hire now helps us avoid the holiday rush.

Auburn just fired their OC. It either frees him up for App or makes him a candidate for promotion.

yes. if thats all it is, I'm pretty disappointed he left for that. better be some amazing incentives. insulting knowing they offered Brohm 5 mil/year

If he was ONLY offered 1.2 mill then his response would be Thanks, but no thanks.

Multiple people connected to Louisville describe the situation as not a scenario in which a long-term rebuild would be tolerated, even if that’s what needed. If this is the case then Satt would best leaving UL alone. Time will tell. That is what is frustrating about this. They would be willing to b...

We do have an “assistant head coach” if that title means anything. He’s only coached high school outside of his time at App, though. Very true. But he essentially a part of Brown’s defensive staff. How would it be received by Brown to now have to report to him? Can't see Brown returning to App in t...

Have I missed something? Has Satt actually interviewed, been offered, accepted a new position? This thread has quickly turned into a definite replacement topic.

Interviewed yesterday.

I like the Ruffin McNeil choice as well if forced to deal with Satt skeedaddling!

Ruffin is a defensive guy. But there is a chance that he stays awhile. Who is your choice for OC?

You realize the he had an agent before Sexton?

Let me put it this way. While there are a lot of schools that Satt checks boxes for, do they check his boxes for potential employers? There may be a couple out there that do, Ga Tech being one of them, but I don’t think Satt looks at a job that doesn’t fit his needs and says, yea but look at all tha...
