You talking about as a prospective NFL coach?

No. But I did read that the Panthers had some interest when they were searching for Ruhle. That sort of surprised me. 
 

   It’s for Auburn. I think it’s the job he’s looking for and I think he’s the coach they need to take a step forward much like Clemson has done over the last decade.

    Recently was part of a conversation about potential HC candidates available and Tony Elliott was a very impressive choice on paper. Any insight into him would be appreciated. TIA. 

Tony Elliott would be a great HC, IMO.

A lot of Clempson fans NOW were fans of a different college team 5 years ago. Doubt they even know who you are talking about. 
 

one Clempson coach to keep an eye on is DC Brent Venables. He will be the HC at UNC once Mack retires, pending, or course, he does not take over for Dabum once he leaves for Bama.

I think Venables is by far the best coordinator in Clemson.  He schemes up tremendous game plans and situational stuff.   

This is actually Elliot's first year being the lone OC.  He's definitely good.  But it has always been a mystery in Clemson IMO about how good the OCs are.  During this run of the last several years it was a shared job and not exclusively Elliot's.   How much of it is just a system that elite talent thrives in?   

but I think Venables is the BEST DC in college football.  Elliot is one of the best OCs.  Elliot just is harder to judge given how Clemson has run their offense the last several years with co-coordinators.  Plus, the Clemson OCs outside of one year w/ Kelly Bryant have had the luxury of having the best QB in college football in their laps (Watson/Lawerence).  Which is pretty absurd to go from Watson to Lawrence to.....DJ.  That makes life pretty easy on an OC.

War Eagle, my friend. 

I think the Tigers would be well served to look at the same route the basketball team recently took with Bruce Pearl. He was a guy who had all kinds of NCAA troubles, rehabilitated his career and now has the Auburn basketball team in a better place than it's ever been. There's a guy we could look at it with a very similar back story.

  That is exactly the questions I had about Elliot. But if he keeps getting elite talent, and it keeps working, I’m good. That’s probably the slight edge I give to Elliott. Recruiting. He could keep Chad Morris to help with the offense. 

  The problem at AU is the huge buyouts on Malzahn and other coaches. Around 25M. I would be happy to have either one over being stuck in neutral another year. 
 

Thanks for help

Yeah, there's a reason why Venables is the highest paid assistant coach in college football.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      lol Honestly, it might sound dumb, but I've had this idea in my head of a specific picture I really want to get with him since draft night. Basically I want it to be of the two of us sitting on the floor next to each other with the picture from behind.  Ideally it would have been with us both wearing T-Mac jerseys (and me wearing an Arizona hat that has block A logo on the back of it too), but since they won't have baby versions of those for a bit and that does seem like a waste of money on something he'll grow out of in a few months, I think I'll go with this that I've found on Amazon for like 12 bucks........ I'll get this made with T-Mac's #4 but then my Nephew's first name (which incidentally starts with a T, so I've already joked to my sister that she needs to change his middle name to something with "Mc" or "Mac" in it so i can call him T-Mac lol) Just think that would make for a really cool picture for me to have of him at this age (just over 13 months now), with the two of us wearing our #4's.  It's the type of thing I can absolutely see myself getting it printed out by Shutterfly on one of those canvas like prints to hang on my wall. And seeing as they live in NYC with me in Michigan, not sure the next time I'll see him again as I can't just drive on down the street for a picture when the jersey arrives, so was hoping I'd be able to take advantage of seeing them at the end of the month to get this picture, but it would all be dependent on the jersey (and this custom onesie) being shipped in time.

      XL makes a list of sophomore breakout candidates

      By PNW_PantherMan · Posted

      His piece of the pie is only going to get smaller unless there are serious injuries.  Unless the actual pie becomes that much larger, ie Bryce being Kurt Warner, I don't think there's room for him to breakout.  Just like there's not room for JT Sanders to break out beyond a couple hundred yards receiving and a few TDs. I don't think a lot of people understand the volume that XL got last year.
