2018-2019 Coaching Carousel..

Honestly, I’m surprised that Maryland hired Locksley. The dude has a garbage record as a HC and numerous off the field issues. I know he is a great recruiter, but I would absolutely hate that hire if I was a turtle.

They love it. He's from the area and it seems he is beloved by former players and fans.
 
Louisville is interested in FHCMM's services as DC in addition to Ole Miss-heard today he's the leader for the Ole Miss DC gig now. Their top target was Pete Golding from Alabama, and he turned them down. Matters to us because we'll get an offset there when he lands somewhere IMO.

Yeah - I don't get it. I watched him closely during his tenure at UNM. Saying he was awful is putting it mildly. He was terrible in front of a camera and came across (at least to me) as incompetent. So long as they're happy and he's a long way from any teams that I care for.

I expect her gets about a $1MM to $1.3MM at Ole Miss. Their previous DC earned $1.1MM this past season. Just a wild guess

He doesn't have much reason to drive a hard bargain. Just sayin'.

Yes he does-This is a relationship driven business IMO-even more so now that RG went our and hired a guy from the Saban/Smart tree (doesn't Sexton represent both of them?). They'll settle for something if FHCMM gets one of the DC gigs he's in consideration for.

Guys, he can't take just any job. It HAS TO BE a college HC or an NFL assistant. This will not offset any of his contract.

We discussed this in another thread. Any job he takes will offset what CU owes him.

I missed this then. Which thread? I’ve seen it stated by Brian Howell and Adam M multiple times that it must be college HC/NFL assistant. I’ve been through just about every thread that’s pertinent and seen nothing to state otherwise
