OC and DC Possibilities - New DC Todd Grantham, OC Doug Meacham

[H2Orange]

The Kansas years shouldn't be held against Meacham. He worked under Les Miles and wasn't allowed much flexibility. Les was determined to run the ball up the middle.

Gundy is known for giving his play callers flexibility?

Except he worked for David Beaty not Les.

On the plus side, Basketball plays in two days!

That isnt helping anyone's argument

Meh….those Kansas teams reached levels of inept that even we didn’t come close to touching this year. Next year on the other hand…….

 

[Fl_Poke]

Yey we just got stuck crap.

No coach who cares about their future would touch these jobs. They know they will be looking for a new job in a year after Gundy gets canned.

Longtime coaches at a school who pull an o-fer in conference never recover from it.

Someone needs to uncover which OC was on board before the BOR mess.

We didn’t lose any OC because of the BOR and there being a one day contract dust up. Only RA and his homer buddies believe that. Brent Venables is on the hot seat and is out next year if they have another 6 win season and he was still able to go out and get a great young OC. This is just typical Gundy thumbing his nose, saying I’m going to do it my way and hiring a friend.

Wait...that is different than what we do?

Helping make the case for Meacham? Oh I wasn’t trying to do that. Kansas won 6 games under David Beaty in 4 YEARS! So that staff, and a key piece to Meacham’s OC experience, was a another level of bad.

Uh, yeah, hello! We live on fades and ask a weak armed QB to throw out routes from the far hash.

Yeah, but we do that AFTER we run up the middle twice.

 

[CptnQuirk]

Maybe we will have a great quarterback who will make the coaches look good. I’ll go cry now

He didn’t coach under Miles, he coached under David Beattie and that staff was fired after the 2018 season!

 

[inappropriate.name]

We just take what the defense gives us. They are offering a yard or two so we don't take any more than that.

 

[DiamondDog]

Everyone was wanting Meachum not that long ago

 

[mugatu]

So he was OC on a staff where everyone fired at KU and then he was OC the year Patterson got canned mid year at TCU in 2021. That's not a strong selling point.

So bets on if he continues that trend next year..?
