It would be beyond disappointing to finally be rid of Golding to move on to Grantham. He is Pete without the recruiting ability. I hope beyond hope that Coach can get 2 good coordinators to make a last run for some titles. The DC position is one I am worried about more as the weeks go by. I feel if it were going to be Leonard, Schuman, or Pruitt (I believe we now have confirmation that he is not in the running) we would have known by now. So who does that leave. Lake, Steele, and who else?

Ryan Fowler just had a guy Dave Bartoo hiring consultant ranked the possible names of OC and DC. Ryan Grubb would have been an excellent hire He said Pruitt would be an excellent hire. Grantham is a good DC but he is feast or famine. Not a top 25 coordinator. Bill O’Brien grade out at 47 out of all OC and he said Tommy Reese grades out at 49 so it would be at best lateral. He also said you have to account that ND has far superior talent to most of their opponents so that elevated his numbers a bit. He said he wouldn’t even discuss Derek Dooley if asked his answer would be no period.

Posted this in OC thread. Bartoo also said if he was going to give Saban advice on a DC that his 5th best choice would be Brad Lambert DC at Wake Forest.
