New Offensive Coordinator options?

[Decoy73]

Who will be the 4th?  Busch, Ron Brown, other?

Busch and let the jokes begin.

Bu_h, Ni___e, are__a.

I know.  Childish.

Setting ourselves up to make a run at little Raiola at QB. Hire his uncle plus an OC who is taking a qb to the Heisman ceremony.

He is 64 years old. 

Thus the hurry.

Starting to think that maybe new staff hires bought Frost more than a year.

He has 2 years anyway unless he completely craps bed. TA will give him 2 yes due to turnover.

OL is one of if not the most important hires so he'd better be good at coaching up the young fellas

Who was the first choice for OC? Will we ever know?

This morning I was told it was Whipple followed up by Harrell and Anae. Not sure who might’ve been prior to those three.

Whipple isn't stepping down on his own, though. Seems like they have someone to promote. Doesn't make sense

I would hire Joe Brady. His title was Passing Game Coordinator/Wide Receivers at LSU in 2019 when LSU won the National Championship, Joe Burrow won The Heisman by the largest margin in the history of the award after breaking several NCAA FBS records including most touchdown passes (60) & highest passer rating (202.0) and Mickey Joseph was the Wide Receivers Coach. Brady was most recently the Offensive Coordinator for the Carolina Panthers of the NFL and he is currently only 32 years old.

Looking at Pitts O this year, fairly balanced between run/pass.  475 attempts to 519.  Had 3 RB's over 500 yards.  Folks say just a great job tailoring the O to the players he has.  Obviously can develop a QB.

You betcha. Trev is going to introduce Whipple tomorrow as the 3rd best option he was considering and then spend 10 minutes on all those candidates we would have preferred.

In 2018, before Whipple showed up, Pitt had the #18 running game in the country. In 2019, Whipple's first year, they had the #118 rushing offense... <_<

Without knowing roster changes, staff turnover, and several other variables, that statistic doesn't mean much.  

This year, a balanced offense despite having a Heisman level qb would suggest that he isn't completely biased against the run.
