It’s all about money at this point, offers have been made, just which one will come to terms with the money. This will determine if you get your coach or someone else

Good question. Believe Kelly is the long shot but why does everyone say no. I admit my knowledge of the guy is limited apparently to a lot of y’all since y’all know him and say no way. Because he is an under achiever. He has spent the majority of his career as a position coach without the pressures of being a coordinator or HC. He is probably a very good position coach, but there is no evidence on his resume that he can lead a team or strategize an entire game, much less a season. He has been a coordinator for nine seasons of his college coaching career.

I’m hearing an offer is out and waiting on a response. Could be a few days before we know.

Could the meeting have happened last night instead of today since that’s when everyone saw all the lights and video stuff on?

Other than being 54, and not living up to Saban's standard of defense, what's the objection to Charles Kelly? Good question. Believe Kelly is the long shot but why does everyone say no. I admit my knowledge of the guy is limited apparently to a lot of y’all since y’all know him and say no way. Smells like Chip2.0

Hearing this makes me feel better about the search. Shuts down all the crazy rumors of nix and other crazy Candidates. I imagine the 4th unnamed candidate is a coordinator whose coaching in a conference championship. Or Dell McGee...don't be surprised. And this should calm some nervous nellies down. I have faith in ADBJ. He knows this is a game changer for him as well.

Sumrall is obviously interested if he’s interviewed and traveled down. Pay the man what he wants. The fan base overwhelmingly want him, respects him, and will pay to see his team play. The hire will pay for itself over time.

No offense to Charles Kelley, I’m sure he’s a good position coach BUT if he hasn’t been as a HC by now, that’s pause for concern. A young, energetic coach is what we need.

Charles Kelly has been a good position coach and a "fair" defensive coordinator. I always got the sense that his defenses performed better than his coaching ability just because of sheer talent.

My thought process as well. If he can get out and recruit that well, then that’s something to think about. But it’s a lot harder to recruit for yourself than it is Nick Saban or Jimbo Fisher.

If Troy can’t help qualified coaches with former ties to Troy, and/or a former player now coach, but would rather hire someone with Alabama or Auburn ties - that just doesn’t set well with me.
