Art Briles - OC Also keep Davern as well as Hall, Pogue, Bam But I am not a Coach! People can say what they want but some of our defensive rocks have been walk-ons and no-names. Hate the regime but acknowledge the time they put into some of these young men to help them excel. I agree with you on keeping our D in tact. Davern especially. Our line has worked it’s tail off to limit the rush and they’ve done extremely well. Our secondary has been ripped apart time and again. However, it’s hard to play defense when you’re on the field for 45 minutes.

Scatman says it well. Any rating of our D has to take into consideration a D that was on the field way to long per game.

He has been cleared to coach by the NCAA and he is not in a head coach position - let him zerocall plays. Can he ever be forgiven?

He may be cleared but nobody’s going to take him right now: ”Art Briles was front and center in a withering NCAA infractions report Wednesday that ripped him for failing to look into horrific and potentially criminal allegations involving his football players. Yet the infractions panel didn’t find him guilty of any NCAA violations, and his attorney said he is clear to return to college coaching”.

Who do we think will be his first staff member? I think simultaneously 1-4 staff members already at Troy. I will go out a little further and say it is our new OC.

It doesn't matter how good someone is at their job if you can't trust them in the office. We don't need that kind of baggage and there are others who can do the job without it.

Has he done anything to indicate he accepts responsibility for his actions, admits he was wrong, and has shown he can be trusted not to bring down a small program without unlimited money to bail out a scandal. I really don't know what he's been doing, just don't think we need the baggage. Let someone else redeem him.

I'd be willing to bet that Southern Miss would not be having losing seasons right now had they hired Art Briles to be their OC a couple of years ago. There were getting very close to hiring him until USM's previous AD balked on it. The USM head coach Jay Hopson was complately on board to hiring Briles I know one thing... whoever finally pulls the trigger and gets Art Briles to be their OC, will instantly have a great offense.
This is what USM's previous HC said about Briles:
