Assistant Football Coach/Offensive Coordinator. (Specialist IIA)

Even if ex-UCONN WR coach, Darrell Bevell, is an experienced NFL OC, his late Seahawks' Super Bowl pass play call might rule him out for the Huskies' OC position.

no way! He made that bonehead call in the BIGGEST game in the world... We're pop warner level compared to that... Could only dream of Seattle getting rid of him and us being able to obtain his services...

Imho Quinn has been out of work since mid-season, so if Diaco has decided on him as his new OC...I would think he would have been named already.

HEY!! I wouldnt have made that call - but alot of other posters would. Those who want those TCU/Baylor type offenses would agree that was the right call.

Either Quinn or Molnar would be good choices. Both Quinn and Molnar have worked together at Cincinnati and Central Michigan. Molnar is more of a spread pass guy, Quinn seems to be more run oriented. Molnar's stock went down due to UMASS stint but other than that has a sound resume. The Jersey (recruiting) Notre Dame and VA ties tell me that Molnar might be the guy. Plus he has 8 kids and if he can manage a family that size, OC at UCONN should be a piece of cake. Supposedly he is a Caffeine fanatic and a Marathon runner. Good article below will give you some insight. If Brian Kelly would trust him with Notre Dame's offense, I have to think Diaco would trust him.

A video assistant trusted Brian Kelly one day and that didnt turn out the well for the video assistant!
Trust shoud be a two way streeet.


I want Quinn if he is more run oriented - I seen enough passes last year to last me a life time.

If Molnar is the guy...he could have hired him a LONG time ago too. Just saying......and I think it's too early to bring Molnar back up this way after his act at UMASS. maybe I'm wrong...but either way it has to be better than what we had.

You're confident we can dominate up front while other teams fill the box? And good luck selling that to our energized fan base. The game has changed except for the few exceptional dual threat QB's and 4-5* OL programs.

Other than UMess, when did Molnar ever call plays?

What energized fanbase are you speaking of?

Yeah - I want to run the TCU/Baylor/Seahawk offense that throws from the 1...that was fun to watch, wasnt it?
http://scores.espn.go.com/ncf/boxscore?gameId=400610325
61 for 296 won the National Championship.
The RENT was packed almost every game when we didnt have a QB that could throw - and I showed up at every game saying -we might be able to win this - havent done that in a LONG TIME.

I am confident we could dominate up front - so many a poster told us how Cummings made Eric Fisher into a top flight OL and now that he is demoted, making $300,000 a year as the OL coach, I expect that our OL can dominate.

From all the posts on here I'm assuming he did at ND when he was OC.

According to his ND bio - 11 years OC experience and 17 yrs. coaching QB's and receivers.

What games were u watching? We didn't complete many passes

 

[Bonehead]

I didnt say completed passes, I said passes!

Reminds me a little of Fred Armisen of Saturday Night Live fame. Both of them look like they drink a lot of coffee!

 

[HomeKing93]

I'm not sure about Quinn or Molnar. Quinn never called plays at Cincy (except in the Sugar Bowl against Florida when Kelly went to ND) and Buffalo had its best offensive output under Quinn last year when his OC called the plays. Molnar didn't call plays at ND or Cincy.

I agree that Diaco will probably pick someone he knows, so hopefully he knows an experienced playcaller for a top offense in the FBS or FCS. I don't think Quinn, Molnar or LaFleur fit that description.

I hear the Seahawks may be freeing up some personnel. . .

That would be the least desirable OC in recent memory.

It's only a liability if we are inside the ten. So, I'm not sure if it would have impacted us last year.
