Roper fired

This will be a very important hire for Muschamp for him to shake the national stigma that he can’t have offensive success. I’m really unsure of if he will take a risk on someone not proven at the collegiate level or hire a known commodity.

It'll be interesting to see who gets the interim title for the bowl game. Bentley or McClendon?

So according to Dan Wolken, roper is gone. Who are some viable candidates for OC? I’d love Bobby Bentley to get a shot cause I’ve seen and played against what his offense can do, and my coach my last year playing football was one of his disciples.

I will throw out my usual dark horse OC candidate in Brent Vigen, the current OC at Wyoming. He helped win multiple national titles at North Dakota State and Wyoming will have gone bowling for two straight years now... which is pretty darn miraculous.

He can develop QBs, his QB from NDSU is the starting QB for the Philadelphia Eagles and while the guy has been banged up this year the current QB at Wyoming should be drafted this year. Both were virtually unheard of before he got his hands on them.

Vigens runs out of the spread, I formation, single back, and pistol sets, generally finding something that works and then beating his opponents to death with it.

The major drawback, and it would be a major drawback, is that he has spent his career in the upper Midwest/West so he won't have recruiting ties down here.
