"Ruined his career" is a bit dramatic. He's still making close to or exceeding a million dollars as a DC, which is the same position he had prior to our AD offering him a job.

I've argued about this ad nauseum with a friend of mine. The main reason why he's not our HC is that he was going to be yet another in a long line of mediocre HC's and, that alone, was nearly an impossible pill to swallow for this fanbase. Add in that there still exists suspicion about whether he witnessed, and failed to report, Sandusky violating a child...f*** him and his reputation. The suspicion alone should have been enough for ANY AD worth his salt to cross him off their list, but no...we wanted to promote him.

The fact he’s been proven as a terrible head coach is why you don’t hire him. The suspicion surrounding his time at Penn State is why you don’t call him.

uh no, I’m saying if we can get Tee, I’d rather have him than Weinke. Tee wouldn’t come here to be a coordinator. So that straw man means nothing.

I think it’s you that needs to calm down

Why are you so high on Tee? He proved he can’t handle being a coordinator so that makes me question his X’s and O’s. And besides juju at SC. What other WRs is he hanging his hat on

He is an elite recruiter. He would be coaching running backs. This isn’t hard.

I used to doubt acupuncture as valid science until I saw it work on a dog. Changed my whole perception and made me a believer.

Now that the season is over, I did a short recap of last season's recruiting class and their contributions this season:

JJ Peterson 4* OLB -- late arrival, did not contribute significantly, was able to redshirt

Alontae Taylor 4* ATH - starter at Corner, appears to have a bright future

Greg Emerson 4* DT – redshirt year, did not contribute

Bryce Thompson 4* ATH – starter at Corner, appears to have a bright future

Dominic Wood-Anderson JUCO 4* TE – starter at TE, showed flashes but is not a finished product

Jordan Allen JUCO 4* OLB – contributed all season as depth, should continue to grow in the system

Emmit Gooden JUCO 4* DT – contributed all season and showed flashes, should be a starter next season

Jerome Carvin 4* OL – contributed at times, should have a bright future

Jeremy Banks 3* RB/LB – showed flashes at RB, needs a long term position

Jahmir Johnson JUCO 3* OL – started most of season, should benefit from weight program

JT Shrout 3* QB – redshirt year, moved up to #3 midseason, enters offseason as primary backup

Jacob Warren 3* TE – redshirted

Tanner Antonutti 3* OL – redshirted

John Mincey 3* DE – contributed and should be in line for bigger role in 2019

Ollie Lane 3* OL – redshirted

Trevon Flowers 3* S – contributed and showed flashes before injury

Kurott Garland 3* DL – redshirted

Kingston Harris 3* DL/OL – redshirted and needs to find a position

Cedric Tillman 3* WR – redshirted

Brandon Davis 3* CB – redshirted

Kenneth George Jr., JUCO 3* CB – (I think he redshirted? No major contribution)

Paxton Brooks 3* K – started all season at KOS, interesting to see if he will have another shot at K or P

All in all, we brought in 6 immediate impact players in CB's Taylor and Thompson, TE Wood-Anderson, OL Johnson, S Flowers and KOS Brooks. 5 guys: Gooden, Banks, Carvin, Allen, and Mincey all contributed and at times showed flashes. The other 11 guys were all able to redshirt.

Didn't George Jr. go down with a season ending injury in preseason or early in the season?

Francois has a lot of similar traits with JG, no doubt. Played behind a bad OL, never seems to see pre-snap reads, etc. So that might be a bit redundant, but still, beggars can't be choosers. We need legit QB competition.

He is a better athlete than JG imo.

You’re right on the rest. Don’t see it as an upgrade over JG.
