We could also send Wilson up there!
I was going to start a thread sort of like this yesterday but with all the Ohio State stuff that went on yesterday I was going to wait till today to do it. However this looks like as good a place as any to talk about this. Instead of us saying yes or no to OP's original post why doesn't everyone make a list of the coaches they would want at each assistant position.
We would have to put stipulations on this though, and the stipulations are no Lateral Moves, in saying that though if it is a lateral move from a lower prestige school that is fine.
So I will make two different lists, one if Bud Foster gets the HC gig and one if he doesn't, remember you can only have 10 coaches:
HC/Co-DC: Bud Foster
Co-OC/RB Coach: Todd Washington(Running Game Coordinator)
Co-OC/QB Coach: Scot Loeffler(Passing Game Coordinator)
WR Coach: Zohn Burden
OL Coach: Stacy Searels
TE/Co-Recruiting Coordinator: Bryan Stinespring
Co-DC/DB Coach: Torian Gray
LB/Whip: Cornell Brown
DL: Charley Wiles
Special Teams/Co-Recruiting Coordinator: Shane Beamer
The only way I would be ok with Bud not getting the HC job is if he agreed to stay on as DC and this is what I would hope this would look like.
HC/QB Coach: Chris Petersen
Co-OC/RB Coach/Running Game Coordinator: Todd Washington
OL: Stacy Searels
WR: Zohn Burden
TE/Co-Recruiting Coordinator: Bryan Stinespring
DC/Assistant HC: Bud Foster
DB/Assistant DC: Torian Gray
DL: Charley Wiles
LB/Whip: Cornell Brown
Special Teams/Co-Recruting Coordinator: Shane Beamer
You have to remember Frank will be part of the hiring process and I think that anyone that comes in will have to yield to some demands from Frank, the only person that wouldn't have to do that is Bud. On top of that Frank will be an Assistant to the AD for something like 5 years after he hangs it up.

# | Bitter blog - Mailbag, Part III: How does Ohio State's talent stack up historically, plus more Only an idiot would discount the other Tech and their chop blocking ways, those have been close contests for years and we are at GiT and it is late in the season so we have no idea how either team will be constituted (injuries, suspensions, etc). Right now we need to focus on *, nothing more and nothing less. The only guaranteed win on our schedule is LOLUVA, because Timecop...
wow. Someone with a much higher maturity level than mine approved this shirt for print.
They stopped just short of "Eat Bud's D!"
Someone get Danny Coale on the phone. He catches everything.
Not only is he on social media. he wears TKP shirts on social media. #BudforPrez #BudforHC
Back in college, I lived in the country. Friend had a few turkeys at his place. I used to flip and hold my unbuttoned flannel shirt tail up in the air behind me like a turkey tail fan and sorta gobble (it's harder than it seems to sound like one of them) at him while turning side to side like they do when they display. The aggression this would trigger in that tame bird was amazing, and a lot of fun until he'd charge for real. Luckily, he didn't posses the spurs a wild turkey sports, although he did have vestiges, but I ran away from him a couple of times when he got too close.
Is this watching the game student section or get shit faced drunk and piss me off student section?
"gobble gobble"
"what is it girl?"
"gobble gobble gobble"
"What's that? It was a catch?"
Ok I'm trusting yall. Now I need to sell one of my anOSU tickets since my wife can't go.
I loved those seats in college. seriously, we'd get 50+ students to enter the lottery and we'd always get enough tickets for the 20 of us who actually wanted to go. No matter were the seats ended up, we'd all make our way up to the top of the east stands at the 50 yard line so we could sit together and have a great view. Lots of good memories made in that section.
...we can't have a HCIW, but i'm sure there is something else we could call it ...

I do agree with you that I want Bud to be the next HC and it would be nice to have a way to ease the worries about the future of VT with recruits. However, until the administration actually knows when Frank is going to step down (or be fired), it's never wise to proclaim who the next guy is. I have complete faith that Whit has a contingency plan and is well aware of the situation.
Yeah, my senior year tickets were in 5Q as well and it was a great vantage point.
I am sure Harbough the caveman will eventually capture him with his bare hands and eat him raw unfortunately...
A "die-hard" michigan fan was hired into my team at work.
My first words out of my mouth - Danny Coale made that catch.
I haven't spoken to him since. Onward Fighting Gobbler!! Terrorize Harbaugh!
That's almost exactly where I was sitting for the 2009 Miami game and I personally loved it. As mentioned above, you get a great look at the field.

I helped
Bud is on social media - I wouldn't really have thought that would happen. I mention that for the ability to adapt off the field to connect with recruits/community. I don't see Bud having such a forgiving/accepting attitude wrt not getting the job done as a player or coach. He's well respected by his peers and therefore I don't think he'd have any problem getting bright minds to come be apart of his plan.
You're open to change and outside, that's cool. I'm sure there are some good candidates out there. I see a name like Mark Richt come up and to me that's not the right direction. The guy can't win big games at UGA with all that talent and support and he's supposed to be a better option than Bud? I'm not buying it. PJ Fleck is a name I see here - I don't know enough about him to have an informed opinion, but to me that's not a given upgrade. I'm just in the category of promoting from within based on a record of excellence. That's why I'll always be pro-Bud.
I think Bud has demonstrated the ability and desire to be the best
Someone save him for the 2020 visit to the Big House...
Really, shit why did I get so high up as best?
"Do not try to approach the turkey," Overton said. "We've gotten calls from people who have been trapped and unable to move because he's cornered them."
Really?
One of those, he was pretty good at.
Looks like there will be at least one more, according to a post over on 11W. Hearing anywhere from 1-3, but the 1 is because of a less-than-stellar GPA.

Hasn't Bud Foster said in the past he would make Charley Wiles DC if he became head coach? Not sure why everyone is jumping to conclusions that it would be Torrian filling that role.
