I want the best coach we can get here. I think at this point in life jay has more experience and would be a better HC right now. I do hope mike is head coach some day. I’ve watched his playing career since high school and obviously followed him as a coach. We actually went to the same high school. Great guy from a great family and i hope he is around our program for a long time. I would love to see him elevated to OC in the next regime. If Jay would get the job they do have a relationship so that could be a possibility.
I believe we all do and I have absolutely no solace in being right . . . I threw the thread out there about CMD because I had hard information and thought it would be really fun for Cajun fans to process . . . It worked magnificently . . . Of course until BWK got involved . . .
I will answer you seriously, Kyle. I have several guys I really like. I would be extremely happy with any one of them. In no particular order:
Jeff Lebby, OC at Ole Miss. He is a brilliant offensive mind and has been very successful as OC at UCF and Ole Miss.
Jay Johnson, OC at Michigan State. Another very good offensive mind whose offensive philosophy fits really well with current Cajun personnel. He has been here before and fits well with the culture; his offenses at both Minnesota and MSU have been multiple offenses based on a power running game.
Pete Golding, DC at Alabama: Learned from Ron Roberts at SLU and Nick Saban. Alabama fans don't like him much, but the Tide's defenses have been pretty darn good.
Dan Lanning, DC at Georgia. Has worked on the defensive side of the ball at Memphis, Arizona State, Sam Houston [where he was recruiting coordinator as well]. Has learned his trade under a couple of fairly good defensive guys in Mel Tucker and Kirby Smart. Georgia's D under Lanning is perhaps the best in CFB in the modern era.
Jay Johnson HC
Dezmo OC
Patrick Toney DC
Dezmo on deck for 3-5 years from now when JJ gets a P5 HC job.
