Per OB, no offensive coordinator was named at the team meeting
It will also be revealed that the ST personality of Michael Jordan, was in fact Nick Saban as well...

Well that's good to hear. At least they are taking their time and making sure they get the right guy.
@max_olson:
Source: Shawn Watson was introduced as Texas QB coach in team meeting tonight. OC has yet to be named.
Doomed.
@ChetMoss
Inspiring introduction to the team just now by Coach Strong. Love the intensity!! He's just what we need to get to where we want to go.
Talk right now is Darrell Wyatt has not been retained.
You think he is that bad, to the point that he'll be a cancer to the team even if he isn't the OC?
No, I never said Shawn Watson was a bad QB coach, I never considered him in that capacity, I said he was a horrible offensive coordinator and I stand by that.
Greg Davis >>>>> Shawn Watson
And I hate Greg Davis.
But QB coach is the one spot I'm okay with Watson seeing what he did with Teddy Bridgewater.
I will continue to say this. Offensive Coordinator is the most important hire Charlie Strong can do right now, he needs a perceived home run, and nothing short will do. We need a guy that will stick around for a few years and can run an offense that will attract elite QBs, receivers, and running backs.
I've explained why I feel this way, but will say it again. Charlie Strong is a defensive mastermind, he can coach defense better than most elite level head coaches, it's why he has gotten to this point. But he is completely dependent upon having a Offensive Coordinator that can run the show on that side of the ball, a co-head coach for offense.
I would have said these same words if Art Briles was our head coach, except I would have said it about his DC.
Now if Shawn Watson is our QB coach, then I'm happy with the choice, but the guy would be in over his head if he were hired as OC, history has proven that. I will say this; of every confirmed hire, (every one to this point) has (in my opinion) been fantastic. But just like GDGD was an anchor around Mack's neck, so will the OC be if the wrong guy is hired by Charlie Strong.
UL gave the boot to Daniel Gresham... Made me laugh
They pulled his Scholly!!?

I wonder if Strong takes him again
Lol.. Damn. It wouldn't be so funny if I thought he would have trouble getting another scholarship but he should be fine. A scholarship is very valuable but I doubt he would have stayed committed anyway with Strong leaving. What do u think guys, would u mind Coach Strong offering him??
him. Reap what you sow mother er.
I dont see him as a difference maker on the field. Dont want or need him.
Inside Texas saying Wyatt is indeed out, so that leaves an OC and WRs coaching vacany.
Just thinking out loud, but both Lincoln Riley (East Carolina) and Scott Frost (Oregon) fill both voids.
So does Joker Phillips.
Haha.. Yeah, I don't want him back either if I had the choice but remember that these recruits are still only kids at the end of the day. Most of their actions and decisions are a reflection of their parents.
They're only kids to you and Mack Brown. To everyone else, they are young men who should be learning how the real world operates instead of being coddled.
Yep. Forgot about him.
Well I'm ok with a difference of opinion. I just remember being a senior in high school and being recruited. Coaches would call all the time, some would flat out lie about playing time or whatever they thought u wanted to hear. Then some would take a different route and swear that their school is the best ever with the best looking women on earth. I was so ignorant to what I know now. Made a lot of decision that I look back on today and admit that I shouldn't have made. I don't think any 17year old should be coddled, but there should be some consideration taken according to the maturity level at that age.
Damn I want to know who our OC is!! They just need to spend the money and get Morris... I played against his Lake Travis team with GG, the dudes offense is freakish... We just need to spend the money, he knows texas and would be a great addition!
jose canseco is a possible candidate. it would be a consulation prize for not landing the head coaching gig, but a prize none-the-less.
