MinnwiscowaSker Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 I think he'll promote JP. That will secure him for a while. Quote Link to comment
junior4949 Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 For what it's worth, I got an email about a rumor Mike Stoops will replace Carl. While I highly doubt this to be true, I guess stranger things have happened. The email also stated Ron Brown was retiring. Anyone else heard this? Quote Link to comment
Blackshirt96 Posted December 5, 2011 Author Share Posted December 5, 2011 Jim Heacock would be an amazing hire if he does not retire. Quote Link to comment

Possible he may expand on the good publicity he got from the pregame prayer at Penn State and work full-time nationally on his ministry work. Quote Link to comment
da skers Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 A few other names to throw into the WAG for AD mix: Ron Vanderlinden of Penn State. Tim DeRuyter of aTm. Jim Heacock of Ohio State. Vic Koenning from Illinois. This is my wild assed guess that I mentioned in another thread a while back. Some tOSU fan pointed out that Heacock is likely to retire rather than taken another DC job. So he's probably not a possibility. Do I know that these guys are getting a look? No. But they are all DC candidates. And all will soon be looking for a new gig, most likely. That makes them more likely than most of the guesses I've seen on this board in the past week. Right school. Wrong guy. At least thats one contact. Quote Link to comment

Larry Johnson Sr has had his named throwin out there. Especially with the recruitment of Jamil Pollard becoming public. 1 Quote Link to comment

It also said Cotton was taking a job within the athletic department which I don't see as breaking news as it's been rumored much of the season. It also had Carl going to FSU which again isn't newsbreaking. I guess we'll have to wait and see if Mike Stoops is announced DC and Ron Brown retires. Quote Link to comment

Are you saying Vanderlinden is not from PSU (he is). Or are you saying there's someone else at PSU who we'd take before him? Quote Link to comment

The Dude Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Why does Ekeler's name keep popping up? No way in hell. There's a better chance that monkeys will come flying out of Lil Red's butt than for that to happen. Why? He is a great coach. He should have used those great coaching skills to mold more than 1 or 2 good linebackers his entire time here. 3 Quote Link to comment
Blackshirt96 Posted December 5, 2011 Author Share Posted December 5, 2011 If they hire a big name I hope they make quick work of it so they can get some recruiting out of them. 1 Quote Link to comment

He should have used those great coaching skills to mold more than 1 or 2 good linebackers his entire time here. One reason Ek left is I don't think him and Bo completely saw eye to eye. Alot of people think Bo coaches DBs, but he is actually a LB coach. I think Ek got drilled alot when the LBs weren't playing well. Also, Larry Johnson Sr. is an intriguing name coming around. Highly regarded defensive coach, and I believe maybe even more important, a VERY GOOD RECRUITER. Bring him in as a Dline coach and let him out on the trail grabbing PSU recruits!!!!
