Super Bowl ring? check.
Success & Credibility as a college coach? check.
you beat me to it. that was FAST
Stiney also coaches OTs. It might be better if he coaches only one position.
Looks like Wikipedia is trigger happy as well..

I'm optimistic about this decision. I think it's obvious he has struggled in getting an identity, but I'm sure Frank has a vision and will make sure the right thing gets done.
With all that said, Frank is a wait-and-see kinda guy, so maybe Scot's first season will be trial and error? Hope not.
I think that we are resting how bad auburn was offensively later year squarely on his shoulders, when I believe that Chizik had a lot to do with it. Hopefully he gets back to his teachings from Carr and Meyer and runs a more pro-offense. In my personal opinion Auburn had the personnel to run the spread (like they previously did under Malzone) and therefore he called plays that he wouldn't normally of called because of it.
The guy that coached the guys that caught all of Luck's passes? Might not be terrible, if anything comes of it.
That we're getting Stanford's wide receiver coach?
Grimes?
I imagine he will slide to TEs/recruiting coordinator. Shane could stay at rbs, and then we get another WR coach. Loeffler would have to be OC/QB
Word on the street is his announcement will be at 4:00 Tuesday.

If I could make this gif my profile picture for facebook and twitter, I definitely would
fingers crossed...
Does our playcaller have to be in the booth? I would prefer the QB coach to be on the sidelines.
that was an all time crowd that night, in an absolute hurricane. i wonder if the rain amplifies the noise because miami 09 seemed especially loud to me as well.
and yeah, it was a quiet walk back to the truck that night. once it got quiet i realized my ears were ringing.
This was kind of a given that he wouldn't leave, just have a new title. I've seen him with recruits and that is what he is best at.
Will have to congratulate him when I see him at the next home game.
I'm just glad for some type of change, and this hire has potential to be good. What about the rest of the staff?
Change is good - especially when it's long overdue.
As pointed out by Joe in the post, there are some eerie similarities re: multiple offenses, lack of identity, etc.
I like the SEC pedigree and potential for recruiting.
But part of me feels like we're pulling off an O'Cainspring mask and discovering another O'Cainspring mask underneath.
Too Debbie Downer-ish?
That wasn't Eddie. That was Josh Morgan.
seems like kinda a waste just to do tight ends. TEs and special teams, leaving shane on RBs maybe?
Assuming Grimes is coming with him, I put together the same Sacks Allowed and Tackles for Loss Allowed by his offensive lines since 06 against VT's as I did for Adkins over the weekend. Somewhat of a mixed bag - those last two years at Auburn were ugly with a capital 'U'. Maybe it was just that toxic down on The Plains?

Saw Beamer, Stiney, Loeffler, plus 1 more at Burg restaurant today having a pleasant lunch. This is not a confirmation in any way.
But they are using Feldman as their source, which doesn't confirm him as correct.


...hire the best gu or let the OC pick his guy. But don't try to shoehorn Hokie legacies into where they aren't the best qualified.
