John Anthony Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 If the list went to 50, Kerry wouldn't be on it... Your mentor is a big fan of Kerry's. Possible twitter battle? Haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futurecoach Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 I would hire Strong before any of the other two only because I think he would be there the longest. It shouldn't be about who will be there the longest. It should be about who will bring the most life in the program and be the most successful even if they leave after a few years because of success. They tried to go the stability route with Tommy who would have stayed a long time but we see where that got them. I like Strong but I don't like him for the UC job.

I get what you are saying, but the coaching carousel at UC is ridiculous and I'm sure very frustrating for the players. I'm sure it affects recruiting. I don't know a whole lot about Strong other than he did a good job at the Ville and struggled at Texas. What is your reasonings for why you do not think he would be a good fit at UC?

John Anthony Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Fickell is the top guy currently. Doesn't mean he will get it for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MentschTrachtGottLacht Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 December 4th at 12:40 PM: Will be Luke Fickell. Fleck and Brohm will have MANY better opportunities. I should start a pay site to dish this kind of info. Ha....just kidding @gametime. I know it isn't done yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gametime Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 What's GT gonna do when Fickell brings Coombs? Wouldn't mind Kerry as a DC. A lot of positive to having him on staff, he's just not proven he's ready to be the boss... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a large majority of OSU fans will miss him the most. Everyone knows it's Luke's time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MentschTrachtGottLacht Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Fickell talks with UC will be much further along in about 5 hours. Urban and Gene Smith involved in full support of Luke, especially as they've made sure Schiano will remain at Ohio State for the 2017 season. Kerry will come along for the ride.
