OL Coaches connected to McAdoo

There are some decent choices available here, starting with...

Doug Marrone

Currently: Offensive Line Coach, University of Alabama
Formerly: Head Coach, Jacksonville Jaguars (2020)

If Marrone wants to get back to coaching in the NFL and doesn't mind working for one of his former subordinates, this would be a strong hire.

George Warhop

Most Recently: Offensive Line Coach, Jacksonville Jaguars (2020)
Formerly: Offensive Line Coach, San Francisco 49ers (2005)

Warhop Was the Jags line coach while McAdoo was there. Also worked with McAdoo in 2005 with the 49ers where McAdoo was his assistant. Has a pretty extensive resumé as an OL coach. 

James Campen

Most Recently: Offensive Line Coach, Houston Texans
Formerly: Offensive Line Coach, Green Bay Packers (2006-2013)

Of the bunch, Campen has the longest tenure working with McAdoo. He's a longtime line coach, and fairly well regarded.

Pat Flaherty

Most Recently: Offensive Consultant, New York Giants
Formerly: Offensive Line Coach, New York Giants (2014-2015)

Flaherty also worked with Matt Rhule on the Giants staff in 2012. He was considered a possible OL coach option when Rhule was originally hired but I don't know that he ever interviewed. He's also a longtime Tom Coughlin associate.

Tony Sparano Jr

Currently: Assistant Offensive Line Coach, Carolina Panthers
Formerly: Assistant Offensive Line Coach, Jacksonville Jaguars (2020)

Promoting Sparano would be the path of least resistance, but he's only ever been an assistant line coach. Never held the full title that I've seen.

So who gets the job?

Hard to say but if it were left up to McAdoo, I'd speculate that Campen, Warhop or maybe even Marrone (my choice) could be the guy depending on McAdoo's current relationship with them.

If Rhule is making the pick, I'd probably bet on Flaherty. That said, he could have had Flaherty before and chose Pat Meyer instead so...hard to say. And of course, Rhule could just decide to promote Sparano.

Hopefully we can get Doug Marrone

My pick too.

That said, even with the pro to college comparison, if you had the choice to continue coaching under Nick Saban in Alabama vs coming to work for Matt Rhule in Carolina, you might have to stop and think about it.

Well its clear that people are turning Rhule down so maybe the McAdoo "connection" lol its so funny to even say that would assist in getting someone. Not saying that someone is Doug because I wouldn't come work anywhere near this team given what I've seen.

Marrone is currently employed.

Warhop, Campen and Flaherty are free agents.

Sparano already works here.

Hopefully Rhule won’t micromanage.  Marrone is definitely the best candidate (or at least the most qualified, almost to a fault).  I doubt he’d want to come here, though.  But McAdoo was desperate to get back into an OC gig and we found a solid option because of that, so maybe someone else of decent quality will be desperate enough as well

Campen would be my top choice based on experience and familiarity with McAdoo followed by Warhop or Flaherty. Sparano should remain on as an assistant to whichever experienced guy we bring in.

Campen is interesting also.

10 years with the same team (Packers) as an OL coach.

James Campen - Wikipedia

Houston Texans OL coach James Campen is featured in NFL Films segment narrated by QB Aaron Rodgers.

Apparently during his time with the Packers they were the only team to have 6 different offensive lineman voted to the Pro-Bowl.

      Is Charlotte the worst sports city right now?

      By CamWhoaaCam · Posted

      Let it all out bro.   At the end of the day Charlotte fans just aren't that passionate as other fans. The Panthers and Hornets crowds are wack.    Go to a Canes game and you will understand this. Tell the family I said hi and Happy Father's Day.

      Dude you have no idea what you're talking about. Best place to live?  LMAO... that's your criteria...  Charlotte gets put all over those lists too... come on man... and those lists have zero to do with sports. I'm done after this bc I'm punching down intellectually here... The Panthers have been bad for 6 years now. You are obviously young and not overly educated based off the "dunks" you're putting out there that certainly are, so let me educate you today on the Panthers. The Panthers sold out for well over a decade straight. BOA has been as good an environment as there is when the team is good.  Fan support for the Panthers has been incredible when the team has even remotely reciprocated. The idea that Charlotte doesn't support the Panthers is utter BS. People in Raleigh have the biggest little brother syndrome of all time... Nobody outside of the Triangle cares about any of your "vaunted" sports team outside of Duke-UNC in basketball on a national scale. Sure, the Canes are great. But nationally, the WWE dwarfs the NHL in ratings. More people care about Cody Rhodes than Sebastian Aho... or anyone else in the NHL for that matter... I doubt less than 5% of anyone in this state outside of Raleigh even knows who that is... that's a knock on Aho who is a great player, it's just the NHL barely makes a ripple in the overall hierarchy of American sports. It's not in the same universe as the NFL or NBA no matter how badly you want to tell yourself otherwise. Raleigh is not a big-time sports city, no matter how much you want to scream into the abyss about it. Neither is Charlotte. But no one here is making such a nonsense argument... LOL it's good to be young and to be ignorant enough to be confidently wrong... WTF are you even on this board though since Charlotte is so beneath you? There is an actual discussion board on this very site for Raleigh sports since they are so superior...  Maybe it's bc I'm watching Idiocracy with my son, but your timing is perfect, my man... The dumbest among us have become the most confidence in their ignorance... God Bless America!!

      You do know the biggest military base in the US is located just an hour from Raleigh in Fort Bragg right? Military families are family oriented. A hour drive to games is nothing compared to traveling 3 hours to Charlotte.   Cmon man there is nothing happening in Western Carolina other than Charlotte. I only go west for outdoor activities and some nature/mountain views.
