OC/WR Coach Brian Hartline (National Champion, HC at USF, Buckeye OC for this postseason)

[CMic]

Kind of like when Day hired Coombs as DC because he didn’t a whole lot of coaches at that point yet

Make this one make sense.

(Probably going to end up needing a South Florida thread at some point.)

Bradden has experience with Nebraska and the KC Chiefs. Verpaele is a Foorida native and USF alum with a poet extensive DB resume since 09. Good hires to start out with.

So who’s making these assistant coach hiring decisions at USF while Hartline is working full time as OC at Ohio State?

I posted the information below in the Cotton Bowl thread but since it may have bearing on the implication of your question, I am copying it here.

Interesting nugget picked up from Austin Ward at On3. The CFP playoff committee requires that participating teams, hold a pregame press conference that makes available the offensive and defensive coordinators for each team. Failure to comply results in fines. Ohio State is holding their press conferences today. The lineup provided by Ohio State yesterday has Matt Patricia leading the defensive press conference. However, Ohio State has listed that Ryan Day and not Hartline will be speaking at the offensive press conference. Implication being that Ryan Day will be calling plays going forward.

If true, I think I like it.

Hartline is still going to be calling the plays. We went over this already. "Calling plays" isn't nearly what fans think it is...

It's also a funny boogey man. I thought Day calling plays was the bad thing that caused us to lose whatever games we lost before we had Chip. Now it's a good thing again......till we lose.

My scarlet glasses hope is that it’s a bad thing on a week to week basis when there’s a time crunch; it’s a good thing in the bowl games with extra time to prepare.

Probably too late with this post but I hadn't seen it

Only thing I got is he wants him on O instead of being a safety.

It’s possible the offer to the younger brother was to keep the family happy and Hartline is doing Ohio State/Day a solid by giving everyone a convenient out on a situation that everyone wasn’t 100% on board with.
