If Boneyard posters are now the driving forces behind coach hirings, shut the entire program down immediately. We’re screwed.

Grain Justice is not going back to Lane Kiffin and FAU they just hired an O-line coach
FAU: Source tells FootballScoop UNLV offensive line coach John Garrison will be the new offensive line coach at FAU. Garrison has served as UNLV’s OL coach since 2015. He previously had coached offensive line at Nebraska as well.

Seems from his resume that G. Justice would Be a coach who would like to see things through and thru getting us back to a winning program.
Reading this thread, this coach was tabbed by Rich Rod to run an OL at a P5 school this year until Rich Rod @###@$%. Has turned around a D2 Program. Part of the success at FAU.
Looks like he had to work very hard for everything . Could be a GREAT fit.
Will be interesting.

It's tough to go back right away to a school you just left. But if it's true that GJ is leaning towards UNLV this is where I agree with Blue Dogs that if GJ is the right guy for UCONN they need to pony up and offer a better deal than UNLV.

Carl, most of your points are true, but housing prices are high near SMU with many of the neighborhoods having median house prices in the $1 to $2 million area well above any place in CT outside of Fairfield County.
Sure, Texas doesn't have an income tax, but they have higher sales tax (8.19% vs 6.35% in CT) and high real estate taxes.

Is Medic being up at 0231 a bit of a cliche?

I really hope he isn’t a candidate. He doesn’t really hit any of the qualifications.

More likely, HCRE visited a current / future recruit, stopped to chat with a HS coach (Kelley) he may respect, etc. If a candidate "... doesn’t really hit any of the qualifications", what's the likelihood he would be considered?
