This is how I figured it would play out. I can't imagine Tepper being desperate enough for a mid season firing until it hits the fan next year, but you never know with an impatient billionaire.

These type college program jobs might not be available next year is the only thing making me think he could possibly leave, but I doubt it. I’m not even completely out on Rhule, but he needs to change his OC pretty quickly…

And Venables is?

Name a clear cut better coordinator in college football?   Clemson has more CFP appearances than anyone.  2 nattys.  And Clemson has been a top 25 scoring D his entire career.   And everyone in Clemson knows Venables and the QBs is what it has been about. 

and before Clemson got him....OU already saw first hand the Venables magic. 

So yeah, Venables excites the OU alumni and fanbase much more so than a busting NFL coach that didn't do diddly in college.   

Which is why the famous OU alumni have been the ones driving the bring Venables back bandwagon.  Rhule is a just randoms on twitter.  Venables actually has people openly lobbying for him.

Does Venables even want to be a HC? I think he's the highest paid assistant coach in college football. He makes more than most head coaches.

 

He does.  He has spoken on it. 

His stock his been hot for a long time.  He has spoken about why he has stayed at Clemson.  One key reason was he didn't want to be a hypocrite to his kids.  He sold them on Clemson and that experience and wasn't going to then bail for a paycheck/job after they bought in.

One finishes his career at Clemson this season and isn't using his COVID year.   The other is halfway through.  So I don't think he is in the same corner he was a couple years ago.

Honestly I think OU fans want Venables to be a head coach more than Venables himself but yeah why stress when you make lots of money with a less stressful position.

    • 2.7 seconds. If he can get the ball out in under 2.7 accurately to the medium and short routes then they can have a better offense than we saw last year.  Someone said he only had 1.5. That happened more than it should have but that was not the norm for the majority of the snaps. Maybe spending $153 million buys a little better than the weak players mostly involved in those 1.5 fails. Maybe Corbett sucks as a C but let’s at least wait a couple of outings to declare it. If he is adequate at best the OL might become an asset as the year passes. Looking at you Icky. How they help him will be a big part of how well they can operate. I think he needs a lot of help. People were beating him with quickness you have to help him. Unless he just morphs into reliable.  I do think it’s on Young to protect his tackles and himself by making shallower dropbacks. Canales looks to be taking charge of QB operating procedure and pushing it more conventional which I am for.  Question on Young, what is he really good at? Because Canales keeps saying he is going to find what Young is good at and lean into that. So whatever he does best along with handing off plenty seems like the plan. I get afraid when he throws a shallow to the sideline pass of any distance, so they’ll probably do a lot of that.   
    • Did we ever get an answer on why pete bypass him for OC?
    • 2010, 2019, and 2022 are maybe top 3.
