I'd be curious as to why, although I'd guess Fisch wants more money than we pay.

Honestly, my impression is that he thinks he can get a better name.

And my source is getting that straight from Barry. But maybe that's Barry being delusional.

Oh good god

Canada maybe?

Dooley

Well, I think Barry was being delusional.

At that price point, this isn't about money. This is a guy Odom thought was a top option.


They're paying him 900k/year

This seems like good news to me, but I'm not sure.

That name came out of nowhere

Every time I start to feel secure about Odom, either he or the team exhibit some bizarre or boneheaded behavior.

Dooley did a poor job recruiting for Tennessee, and didn't do a very good job of coaching up the players he had, either. He was below .500 at Louisiana Tech as well, and while the team perked up in year two (when the previous guys' players were upperclassmen), they immediately nosedived to 4-8 in year three.

He was, however, an excellent WR coach, which is great when you're looking for a WR coach. But there is no evidence to suggest that he's a very good OC, and he has never coached QBs before, but now he's the QB coach at 50 years old.

Maybe Odom pulled one out of his ass, but this is a Tyson Jackson kind of hire--the type performed by a guy who thinks he's the smartest guy in the room that goes against all available evidence. Those can work...almost never.

This seems like an Oregon hiring Brady Hoke to call plays on defense kind of hire.

Hoke had never been a coordinator before. Neither has Dooley.

Atleast Dooley coached on the offensive side of the ball

Hoke coached defensive positions before being a HC.

I'd be skeptical.

Oh good god what a shit hire

They alao hired Florida's former OL coach. Florida's OL sucked.

Shit line, noob playcaller that can't recruit and will certainly cjange the entire OL because he has no clue about an air raid. Well no clue period.

If I am Lock I declare and gtfo
