Possible replacements for Reaves

[greenyellow]

So now that Reaves is gone, who you think will replace him? Two of the more popular names I've seen thrown around are David Gilbertson (coached TEs at USF before moving to offensive analyst) and TJ Weist (former OC/passing game coordinator at USF who has coached TEs at a previous stop early in his career.) Others have said Taggart should check out Osbourne.

Don't think Osbourne will get a look. I'm fairly certain he's still in town, but I doubt Taggart will be looking to bring anyone back.

My guess is Weist. Mainly because of the OC/PGC experience.

If everything shakes out like it appears, Coach T will need a TE/passing game coordinator. Cristobal can be the sole OC, or a new hire could be a co-OC. Or, some shuffling of the current staff could make room for another position coach? Anybody have any thoughts on who WT would pursue? Who's available? Who is a good fit/home run hire? If the right person is put into place, from a recruiting and coaching perspective, this could be a positive if the next hire is better than Reaves. Or, did WT go for Reaves (from USF) because the pool of candidates for this role is minimal right now (which would indicate we won't be able to do better)? It seems like all the momentum this staff has created could expose some interest with coaches who previously weren't interested (one could hope!)

Thoughts?

EDIT: (Looks like while I was typing this, another thread was started...thanks to the mod for moving it over!)

I know that's a total pipe dream, but man, maybe we need a no-nonsense guy like Chip who nobody would need to worry about.

I bet it's a big name, and a great recruiter. I also bet they get the 3rd degree before they are hired. Whom ever it is. Also I would bet that there is a coaches and players meeting soon addressing bad decisions

Bellotti was a TE coach at one time lol.

I think it's certain that a meeting will be held, we can't have this garbage happening. We need to be more buttoned up, I think we'll see that

David Yost?

David Yost?

Has he landed anywhere yet? He seemed like one of Helf's better hires.

He was hired by Utah State on 12/30 as OC.

Chip wouldn't necessarily be a bad idea as long as it's understood that he's just coming back for a year or two before returning the NFL, which is what everyone says he wants. He wouldn't have to do anything but run the offense because everyone else can handle recruiting. Obviously there are dangers, but it's not a guaranteed failure imo.

I like the way you think. Also because you're not down with HFCS.

The latter is what's important imo; everything else is secondary really. :3
