If defensive staff changes are coming, who should OSU be looking to hire?

[buchtelgrad04]

Google is your friend.

And not that I recall. I thought the Sharrif Floyd thing was a bit below the belt, but otherwise I don't recall giving a [Mark May] about Meyer at Florida.

I googled before I asked the question. I'm expecting you to provide facts for your allegations. Only one I can find is an alleged violation at UT when he was at USC that went no where. Where else should I be looking?

 

[buchtelgrad04]

Kept his job and have been in deep [Mark May] with the feds for disclosing confidential information in an ongoing federal drug trafficking case.

HAHAHA. So he couldn't go the NCAA, OSU compliance, or OSU legal dept, but he could email Ted Sarniak?

Mike Tressel seems to be the early star of the AFCA convention...

Would you take the risk of hiring him as a DC at OSU though? Hard to go after someone who hasn't called plays before at the level that OSU is. I'm also not sure if he wants to leave MSU to come to OSU to be the LB coach here (with Fickell moving to DL), but maybe.

Try adding "restraining order" and "bar fight" and "recruiting violations" to his name in the search.

Tressel was fired so your point about Orgeron being equivalent to that (or something) is not very good.

He's come along way since his stint at Miami. I'm pretty sure he has improved himself since he left Miami.

What's the consensus on Ed Orgeron? He has been a DL coach and is supposedly a great recruiter. Just curious the views on him?

Came on to see if anyone mentioned him yet. I'd be for it. Thought he did a good job as IHC at USC.

One thing for sure. The silence in deafening. I'm not one that buys into no news is good news here.

Um no.

Uncle Ed about to sign with Bama

Bruce Feldman said earlier today that Orgeron is not going to 'Bama. BamaOnline just confirmed that later this morning. Looks like Ed O is still available.

I've been hearing things regarding Larry Johnson from Ped State. If he were to come on board, Thomas Holley probably decommits. If OSU were to reopen recruiting with him, there would be a good chance he follows Johnson.

Agreed. Something is going on, we just aren't privy to it. Everywhere else it's public that they haven't found someone and are interviewing.....but we're silent on this front.

 

[NJ-Buckeye]

maybe.. just maybe...
some folks are still coaching that are involved in NFL playoffs

 

[Buckeye513]

Not worried about the lack of media leaks. These are crucial hires, I doubt they're sitting on their asses waiting to see who everyone else grabs.

I agree, he'd be a great DC, stellar recruiter and makes disciplined defenses. But I thought the cookie monster was looking to be a HC somewhere

 

[starBUCKS]

Ed O isn't happening. He's a potential walking liability with the NCAA, and not something OSU needs considering the past few years. Also in regards to Holley, not sure why some still are fascinated with him, if OSU wanted him before, they could have made the push and taken him. He didn't turn his back without the necessary encouragement.
