That’s what I thought, that’s really weird and concerning that he’s sitting out the bowl game.

Credible link to TT sitting out?

I think its just a dour prediction and nothing more. TT has liked a few tweets from other players about wanting to see McClendon become HC.

I think the notion that McClendon might become the OC for someone like Aranda sounds like a decent fit possibly.

McClendon has OC experience, albeit for the S.Carolina Gamecocks.

He was fine as a WR coach, and has experience as an interim coach, but his last 12 quarters as coordinator for the Gamecocks resulted in just 1 TD.

He was demoted back to WR coach after that season.

I wonder if OC is a position that will get filled before the Bowl Game, as in, does an incoming coach use this period to grade how BMac does?

Sounds like Joe Brady is probably going to Miami so I think the other "hot" coordinator name is the promotion of Brennan Marion unless Pitt gets some money from Dan Marino to pay the guy.

I'm still all about bringing Pep Hamilton on board as an OC and I think because of his Herbert period, that it would be seen as a great choice by current players and recruits but I'm willing to give McClendon the benefit of the doubt depending on how these next 3 weeks go.

Oregon has like 10 players and 1 coach to take on Oklahoma. Although I will say I was 100% confident that Oregon would beat Oklahoma in 2005 Holiday Bowl and they looked horrible and lost. Now I'm 100% sure that Oregon will lose so maybe they'll win this time. The ole reverse jinx.

I’d guess if it’s true is because he’d burn a whole season of elelgibility playing in a meaningless bowl game. Nothing more, nothing less.

He’s only played in 3 games this season, so he could play in the bowl and still retain his redshirt year.

Mcclendon is a Georgia guy so I have a feeling Dan Lanning is going to keep him on. I'm actually excited for this game now.

I wish Lanning was able to jump over to coach the game. Either way, I’m sure the players will be fired up.
