Around 6:28 the site says. Go find out. Also, It's Casey Woods from SMU I think was mentioned. This is a presser from the guy. Not bad.

I will say I see one flaw in your plan. The friday press conference, unless it is late that day. We have commencement that day which would keep a lot of people occupied for majority of day until about 3 pm. And all those Graduates are gonna attend a Football Presser?? The chancellor, the Mrs, all the Senior vice chancellors, board of trustees all will

Surely we can do better than Joe Craddock for head coach. Just out of curiosity what do you actually know about Joe? I admit I’m biased because he’s a Blue Raider and UAB guy that Sumrall hired with an unimpressive resume. From my limited interaction, he doesn’t seem to have much charisma and I question whether he could build excitement. Maybe I’m wrong, it just seems like we’d be settling.

I just watched some YouTube of Casey Woods. I get strong Neal Brown vibes. It's like a less angry Neal Brown, but he has similar mannerisms. He's very intelligent.

Is hiring a coach a lot like any profession where an opening is posted and candidates apply and the manager has to select among those applicants who gets the job or does the athletic director call potential candidates and persuade them to apply then conducts interviews?

Dr. Mrs. TBB says hiring a coach is not like regular jobs. Coaches don't fill out applications. She did say that because it is a state job, it may actually be listed on a job board somewhere, but generally, the AD has a list he calls and then also agents who represent coaches will contact Troy U. She said there may be some rules that have to be followed due to it being a state university, but if an AD and President/Chancellor want a guy, they are going to get him.

Craddock isn't the same kind of personable that Jon is/was (he is much more of a shy type of personality) but he's a good dude and I don't think I could possibly disagree with the resume any more. He was the youngest OC in the country just a few years ago, his offenses at SMU were extremely explosive and he has Power 5 experience, too. I think his offense at Troy has also spoken for itself.

Nobody is Neal Brown but Neal Brown. Everybody in here knows nobody can carry Brown's jock. #troyfan #hottakeoftheweek

No chatter on their boards about it. My connection has made a post and asked. Also no chatter in the locker room.

Craddock can’t hold Sumrall’s Jock And if Craddock is hired as HC you'll surely cancel your season tix?? Or will you man up for our Men of Troy! I've made my choice!!!

Can we just go ahead name GG as head coach. Very good chance sumrall doesn’t take craddock. We return and keep the entire team and cultural intact and go win the damn thing again. GG leaves in 2-3 years and if craddock has improved and still around we got our next HC. We would be covered for the next 6 years. Chess not checkers

Josh, I'm not a fan of the Craddock offense. We tend to waste our first possession and we consistently have red zone failures. His play calling is predictable and even Kimani Vidal abandons the called run hole and broke outside for yardage. The stats tell the tale. We are less than 50% on 3rd down. Our points scored is terrible against teams with a winning record. I'm just not impressed.

At the end of the day, Troy Football is entertainment. It’s a luxury. It would be hard to spend my hard earned money to watch field goals.
