Yes, he half coached the offense in the JV game this year. Did a pretty good job actually.

I would say Gonzales could be the OC, even if Kiffin calls the plays. There is more to "coordinating" an offense than calling plays.

I always wondered if we actually wasted a scholorship on him wile he was holding that clipboard..I don't mean to knock him as I don't know him.. I was just wondering because it would have seemed like we could have used it on someone else

Not sure, but I'm pretty certain that he was a big factor in making the No Huddle with Eric Ainge a success. He was good at realying signals. He was a also a very vocal leader and had a lot of players respect

I didn't realize he did all of that.. I don't feel so bad about the scholorship now... I wonder if Kiff will keep him?

Seeing Cooter on the back of a UT jersey was worth his scholarship. The poster below is correct about him being respected and having a big part in relaying signals. Plus, you always needs backups.

Agreed.

Jim Bob, being his given name helped too.

Kinda like the dude in my avatar.

When Jim Bob was on the football team, he was on an academic scholarship and not on an athletic scholarship. He is extremely intelligent.

I think Gonz is Trooper Taylor (2007) deja-vu all over again. Only this time UT catches a break at our rivals expense. It happens. The OC takes a Head coaching job or is fired and the first place you look is the person directly under him. I would've loved to keep Troop but he wasn't ready to be a playcaller IMO. Only difference between TT and Gonz is Gonz will not be calling the plays like Trooper would have been. Not only does CUM need a proven OC at UF, but he is certainly capable of luring any offensive mind in the country. Because CLK is calling the plays, UT can afford to hire a borderline proven coordinator. In the end, CUM will have to give his boy a shot, or hand him over to his rival.

I like our chances. Funny how he is THE ONLY name that has been mentioned. Funny how CLK has not interviewed a single canidate for OC. I may be sauced out on some heady orange cool-aid, but I think we get both O and Gonz before its over.

Let Strong go to UCF and Tebow go pro, and CUM and UF are royally screwed. And even better, before he rebuilds he's going to say Fk it and go to Notre Dame or the Dallas Cowboys. I'm calling that.

I think no candidate should be interviewed with less than three names. And anyone named Jim Bob Cooter who keeps his name and wears it proudly on his jersey needs to stay on!

He'll be hard pressed to be a good pro coach.
