Who to replace Bobby Bowden and Joe Pa?

T REX · Post by **T REX** » Thu Dec 01, 2005 1:37 am

Warchant is imploding and every is shouting names.......

Kevin Steele being the name thrown out the most. Is he qualified? A LBs coach? Amato is probably a better coach than he.

FSU is one of the big name high-profile college coaching jobs. A pick of litter so to speak.........

Not just FSU fans, but who to replace Joe Pa when he decides to die in 3078???????

Randy Shannon is going to be a great head coach somewhere. Does anyone know where Chud is? The Mooch is available now.

Interesting.

Kevin Steele was HC at Baylor--FWIW. (yeah, yeah, i know...)

i wouldn't be getting too excited by Steele if i were FSU fan.

No Andrews?

T REX · Post by **T REX** » Thu Dec 01, 2005 3:22 am

I do not think Andrews is HBC material. Monte Kiffin would not be a bad choice even though he's older. Someone mentioned Lane in another thread.

Just about anyone they want outside of the top few jobs out there.

Including the coaches at such noble institutions

Kal
Oregon
Taco Tech
GaTech
NCSU
BSU
Louisville
USF
WVU
IOWA
FSU cal
and many many more from the NFL

Mack Brown went to Florida State, didn't he?

I feel fairly certain that Joe will be succeeded by Tom Bradley.

Monte Kiffen wanted the Neb job after Solich got canned. Pete Carroll couldn't understand why we didn't hire him, neither do I.

Considering Chow was still at USC I don't think Monte would have any problem getting his boy Lane to OC. It would have been SWEET.

FSU would have no problem getting a bigtime guy to replace Bowden.
They won't likely be able to take a HC from a current power but I can see them getting a guy like Leach from Tech. With grade-A talent on both sides of the ball and the checkbook for a first-rate defensive staff he would whoop ass.

The reason Kevin Steele has been thrown out there soo much is that prior to the season, he was promoted to Executive Head Coach, meaning he is second in charge to good Ol Bobby. He is a great recruiter, a helluva LB coach, he is still young and his players love him. I personally think he will be the one to succeed Bobby but his stint at Baylor worries me a little.

The guy I would go after his Bobby Petrino at Louisville. He is an awesome offensive coach and he seems to get a lot of his players.

you all are so stupid

Kirk Ferentz is the only choice...I mean any team with 52 first round draft picks...I mean come on...(in my best Jon=Bitch voice)

Amato would be a good choice for FSU
what about Tammy Bowden?

Sky · Post by **Sky** » Thu Dec 01, 2005 4:02 pm

Why do you guys keep noting Amato as a choice. Are you joking or do you really think he is that good of a coach?

I think he has done well with his teams but I don't see him being an FSU caliber coach.

Any way that FSU could snag back Mark Richt?

Cicero · Post by **Cicero** » Thu Dec 01, 2005 4:22 pm

^^^^

We could only wish. I was hoping FSU could have persuaded him to stay an extra year or two and have Bobby hand it over to him. He would have been the perfect replacement for Bobby. There is an out clause in his contract that says FSU is a school he could leave for, but b/c he has enjoyed soo much success at UGA, unfortunately I dont think he would leave there.

Agree with all of the above. I will add that Steele is well connected in the coaching community and could bring some top drawer O coaches in. He also appears to be one who is a "team player" and I think alot of good coaches would like to hang with him.

As far as Amato he is average at best. Mickey Andrews has carried him for years plus he had mega talent at FSU.

Richt will never return. Why would he? He has a good gig at GA.

Steele would be a bad hire in my opinion.

Suncoast, I am a little iffy myself but what is your explanation? You saw him in the Big 12 at Baylor.

Very good at game planning but horrible with adjustments. I also think that your offense will continue to struggle under his leadership. He does not put a very good offensive staff together. Baylor was willing to spend some money for his assistants while he was there but he just made very bad hires. Atleast with Jeffy you can blame nepotism under Steele it would just be incompetance.

Cicero · Post by **Cicero** » Thu Dec 01, 2005 6:55 pm

Thats what I am afraid of. We have a good def staff and I dont know if hiring a Def Coach would help his team. I would rather keep the Def coaching staff as is and hire and offensive minded coach like Petrino.

Petrino would not accept anything less than bringing in his "own" staff.

Jealous are we? :twisted:

The difference between Texas and FSU is we don't have to fight anyone except a$m for the top instate talent. Anyone going to FSU knows they not only have to fight other national powers for the top instate talent but they also have to battle two other promonate in state schools for the top talent.

We also have more billionaire boosters than any other school not named Harvard. Texas will not be outbid for the top coaching talent

Texass has to only battle A&M. Yeah that's right because Oklahoma hasn't gotten the #1 player in the state of texass 3 of the last 5 years now.

. Everyone in the country recruits texass just like they do Florida. I have lived in both states and the Florida schools have just as tight a grip on their recruits, if not more so, than Texass does its own.

Keep your billion $$$ boosters cause if you're trying to take a knock at me and my school with that little comment keep trying. It sure is difficult for Oklahoma to raise money with Conoco, The Kerr-McGee families, the Gaylords, and Ms. Walton.

I find that comment inappropriate. JJ and the BCA provide an invaluable resource for CFB and our nation. I mean really, who cares about credentials, we need to hire more black coaches and let them learn OJT style.

Deion was a great player and I think he would be a great DBS coach but not a HC.

I think Deion might be a decent coach someday, but his problem is he is dying to fail. He doesn't want to work his way up into a HC position like everyone else has ever done. He wants to "skip all dat" and take the reigns.

Never gonna happen.
