Potential Coaching Staff Members (list)

If getting Billy Gonzo means keeping Drayton over picking up Gran, then Gonzo can stay in Florida. It is time for Drayton to take his shenanigans elsewhere.
 
WR/Co-RC/Passing game Coord./CC

CC - Cheerleading Coordinator = picking cheerleaders, solely on looks

Huh. That ought to do it.
 
I'd rather not keep Drayton, but Hubbs does bring up a point. Like it or not, race may play a factor there. As of now, the only coach that isn't caucasian is Drayton. Lake may get the job, but, if Monte was to take over that position instead of hiring a DBs coach, we would have an all white staff. Personally, I don't care about what color the coach is, as long as it is the best staff possible, but it would definitely be something that could be used against us in recruiting.
 
We got O. We're not getting Blake. Gonzo and Drayton would take WRs and RBs. We'd need a DBs and LBs coach. Seems Monte has a couple guys he wants for that.
 
I could honestly care less what color our coaches are. If Kiffin keeps Drayton over a guy like Gran because of the color of his skin then he is not as smart as I thought he was. That would be unacceptable.

0% chance that Monte coaches DBs. He has never done it and if he planned on doing so then we wouldn't be interviewing Lake.
 
Ya'll think the reason we have not heard a WR name yet is because Gonzo is the guy, until he turns us down?
 
I dont know so much about Gonzalez being a reasonable possibility now. On one hand in our favor you have CUM passing him over which has to sting at least a little and the fact that we could offer more money. But against us is the fact that he would be making a lateral move and if he truly does have some play calling ability in FL it would likely be less or non existant here. Add in the fact that he would have to relocate his family. All comes down to the money, IMO. Now that Chaney is in place we should at least get a clue as to who UT has in mind though.
 
I said Gonzo, Drayton and Blake earlier didn't I?
take the B off Blake and that is what I meant.(Lake)

My bad.

Nope, still have a few spots open. 1-4 are open. It's possible Lane could take WRs, Drayton stay with RBs, Monte take LBs or DBs, and we hire one more. More than likely, though, neither of the Kiffins will coach a position and Drayton is gone unless we land Gonzales. That means we likely need a WRs, RBs, DBs, and LBs coach along with a ST coordinator. Cregg could take LBs, but then we'd need a TEs coach.

Maybe Brian Schneider is the missing puzzle piece and the Gonzo "bait". Remember, he and Gonzales played together for 3 yrs at C.S. Also, weren't there some other Raiders coaches that CLK was supposedly interested in talking to last weekend in Tampa.

HC............Lane Kiffin
OC/OL.......Jim Chaney
WR...........Billy Gonzales
QB............David Reaves
RB............Kelly Skipper
ST/TE........Brian Schneider
DC............Monte Kiffin
DL/RC.......Ed Orgeron
LB.............James Cregg
DB............Jimmy Lake
 
Are you sure you're thinking of the same guy? Mark Jackson was hired by Kiffin right after we got James Cregg. Unless something has happened that I am not aware of...
Jackson is at USC now. He pulled a Coach O on us, but this time we were on the wrong end.
 
Ne word on the contracts and lengths, i think that would be great to put up as well, so we could compare the old ones?
