Makes sense that the reason we haven't announced anything is because the guy is still coaching. But am I missing it or is there really no connection to Rhule? Not that he couldn't be the first but that would definitely be a departure from what he's done so far. 2 1 Quote Link to comment

I’ll preface this by saying I think it’s a rumor that started from a random ON3 poster with no juice. That said, if Rhule was willing to give Leonhard a call, he might be in this case too. 1 Quote Link to comment

I went through both of them (Rhule and Schumann) on the all knowing internet and didn't see anything where they were together. Maybe someone mutual? UGA board saying NU is where coaches go to end their careers. Hahaha Quote Link to comment

Hahaha Given Schumann is a co-DC and making $800,000 a year, perhaps the ability to be sole DC and have a pay raise would bring him along. Quote Link to comment

Plus, Kirby Smart is a defensive head coach, so Schumann may want to get out from his shadow to try making a name for himself. Just a guess, I have no clue if Schumann is the guy. 1 Quote Link to comment

He’s offered a slug of money with an opportunity to help turn the program around. Meanwhile while he’s here he mentors another coach on staff to succeed him prior to his becoming a head coach. He’s young and will have plenty of opportunities. Quote Link to comment

Just a guess, I have no clue if Schumann is the guy. Rhule has had Phil Snow at most of his stops (Temple, Baylor and Carolina). If it were Snow, I would assume we would know by now unless they are dealing with contractual issues with Carolina. I am hoping it's Schumann or some other big name. Here are the top defenses this year. I scanned through a couple of names and Illinois' DC got a pay raise and is now making just over $1M. Kentucky's DC (Brad White) is making $1.4M. There is room for Schumann to grow his salary and I am guessing he would cost up to $1.5M to land him. There are quite a few good DC's to steal from other BIG teams. Air Force's DC has coached at other P5 schools so he could be an option too. https://www.covers.com/sport/football/ncaaf/statistics/team-defense/2022-2023 2 Quote Link to comment

That's a good point. Not sure if that is the case every year for AF's offense as their defense often ranks in the top 40. Also, Iowa State's D has ranked high the past few years. There DC (Jon Heacock) is a bit older but learned under Jim Tressel and has tons of experience. 2 Quote Link to comment

Do we have to wait until they're done with the CFP? Or does it get announced after today's game? Obviously you want him here and recruiting, but he might be worth the wait. Quote Link to comment
