2015: UL OC Jay Johnson is Heading Home

[CajunJack55]

Well looks like some of you got your wish, multiple reports coming out that Jay Johnson will be the new offensive coordinator at Minnesota.

Let him go

Interesting development.

On mobile, not sure of this link works but the Star Tribune is reporting it.

Interesting development.

Very interesting, but he is from Minnesota and will probably be getting a 250k-300k pay raise...so can't say I blame him. Hopefully HUD can find a replacement soon and get our QB's in the playbook.

Hire someone who knows how to run an offense. Get rid of the read option trash.

Yeah that 2011-2014 offense was pure trash

Oh lord here we go. Someone said something you don't agree with and you get your panties twisted.

No panty twist here, just saying he did do some good here and they guy knows how to run an offense. I wish him luck.

[CoolCajun123]

I wish him luck also. I just think this offense could have been more lethal with the talent we had over the last few years if we ised more of a spread/passing attack. Instead of that offense which relies on the read option majority of the time.

......for some reason we lose coaches every year. Connect the dots. Johnson and Haack got tired of Hud's ____, just like Willis did when FSU opened up. I believe we saw Johnson's offense in years one and two and last year we were far removed. Congrats to Jay. Hud and Les are the same guy. No matter how many coordinators we hire. Connect the dots guys.

I agree with you.

[CrazyCajun]

Well, jay Johnson is the one moving to a bigger job in a P5 conference.

[BrockMeaux]

Good for him. He (likely) gets a significant raise, and he gets to go home again. Best of luck to him.

Johnson is going to a Big 10 school and his hometown is 30 minutes away from campus..Willis actually did not take the Florida State job he stayed on then left for the Saints gig. Any more theories?

First, good luck to Coach Johnson. He did a good job those first few years and gave us a 1000 yard rushing attack. It seems time though and someone new might provide a boost to the offense.
