I don't think there's any reason to think he would be, and being a lifetime RB coach is not exactly the normal way to get to be an OC.
I'm confident it's not Alford.

I heard Wristen is contemplating retirement from Pueblo. That might be a decent spot for him too
A metric ****ton of coaches have come out of the Saban School for Wayward Coaches, and a number of them much better off than they were when they went in: Lane, Locksley, Daboll (arguably), Butch Jones, Sark.
I received some down votes for suggesting this a few days ago, but I don't really understand why. Guy has been an elite DC and fairly decent HC at the very top of the profession for a very long time and we aren't asking our coordinators to get out there and be difference makers in recruiting. Either way, I would welcome Zimmer with open arms in any capacity.
Big Jim
WTF?
Zimmer runs a very complicated NFL defense and is a prick way beyond the boundaries of good/acceptable coaching. Big name...bad hire.
Is that the school MikMac is at, or is FIU? Or maybe Florida somewhere around Destin International U?
BTW, who is the sad panda on the left in picture? Sami? Looks unhappy.
FHCMM is FIU.
FAU is where Lane rehabbed and where they just hired Herman. Much bigger program that's headed to the AAC.
Ha yeah, Sami asked about which assistants were being retained, to which Prime said, "probably none".
For Sami, he grayshirted, redshirted and got an extra year from Covid. If he's back in 2023, he'll be 7 years removed from high school. I'm not surprised or take it badly that he'd want to know whether he's going to have another position coach, DC/system, S&C coach, etc. Very fair question and concern coming from him.
I'm not suggesting it was a dumb question, as Prime even said great question, but yeah, you can obviously tell the gears are turning in his head that are making him think if he wants to go through another transition that sounds like is going to be a shock to his system and he might be relegated to backup.
Willie Taggart reportedly joining Deion's staff
Former FAU head coach Willie Taggart is reportedly heading back to the Pac-12 after over a decade as a head coach.

Is he the OC?
I hope not...Willie Taggart reportedly joining Deion's staff
Former FAU head coach Willie Taggart is reportedly heading back to the Pac-12 after over a decade as a head coach.
Is he the OC?
Brewster is recruiting for Prime already on Twitter, I think we can assume he is locked in.
A guy with 12 years of HC experience including Oregon and FSU?
Does this mean we're not getting Charles Kelly?
Unless there’s a one Kelly per team quota I don’t see how this is related.
Reference to a question the other day when Coach Sanders mentioned "Coach Kelly" in the team meeting and it was asked if he was reffering to Charles Kelly
Dude got fired at FSU because his offense was atrocious. He just got let go by FAU for similar reasons. On the staff as a position coach or an analyst, great. Do not want him as OC.
Littrell as mentioned somewhere else.
As a DC, the guy is elite. The problems occur when he's been a HC. The fact of the matter is though, he can fvcking flat out coach some defense.
It would also be enticing to recruits because he coaches NFL schemes that would get you ready to play in the pros. Exactly what 4/5 star athletes are looking for these days.
My reading is offensive analyst or potentially something with scouting. Prime Rehab program.
Taggart is only 46 years old. Got his first D1 HC job at only 33 and stayed at that level until just now. That doesn't happen by accident. Even though he has struggled recently with the results he has delivered, he's a good football coach and leader who has strong relationships in Florida (particularly the Gulf Coast with him being from Bradenton & coaching FSU & USF). He also knows U Oregon's recruiting infrastructure intimately to go after them in SoCal. I'm not excited about him as a potential OC, but if we're talking something like a position coach and AHC on the offensive side then sign me up.
What about something like "recruiting analyst" or "director of scouting"
