You left out other DC jobs for Roof. Including his 2 years as OU defensive coordinator. OU is considered one of the 8 “blue bloods of college football” by the CFB subreddit. (With all those big charts they have that supposedly prove who the blue bloods are.)

Yea it is very weird, not sure why...good agents I guess?

They probably have Jimmy Sexton as their agent. Almost every coach has Jimmy Sexton as their agent.
Sexton must be the greatest agent of all time if you think the market is the best judge of things.
But their competitors for jobs would also have Sexton as their agent. So having Sexton as their agent wouldn’t give them an advantage over their competitors.

Totally missed it, but I'd still say being DC for the Cowboys trumps OU.

How had nobody mentioned Chad Morris?
It’s honestly impressive how much of a failure he has been at every level since he took the Arkansas job.
-He never won an SEC game at Arkansas and was fired before he finished 2 full seasons.
-Then he became Auburn’s OC and that tanked the offense and got Gus fired.
-After that he was hired as the Allen High School head football coach in Texas. He tanked that program in just one season and they fired him.
-Next he was an offensive analyst at USF for one season before getting fired in 2022.
-Then he was an offensive analyst at Clemson for one year in 2023.
-After that he was the WR/PGC at Texas State for one year in 2024 then quit after the season.
He didn’t do anything at all last year but this coming year is his first season as the offensive coordinator at Clemson. I have no fricking clue what Dabo is thinking hiring him but if history is any indication, Dabo an Clemson are fuuuuuuuuuucked

Those are rather lowly positions ever since his year as Auburn OC. And it’s not like he had a bad resume for the Auburn OC job at the time he was hired to that job. (He had been a bad head coach, but his offensive coordinator resume was strong before that.)
Edit: Dabo is making him OC again after he’s flopped so much at the lowliest of jobs, all due to his strong performance of Clemson OC more than a decade ago? Well, that’s kind of strange.

Ted won a Nat’l Championship at Auburn so he has that on his resume.

Van Gorder did stay in college football for way too long, but now he's a high school defensive coordinator (not even a high school head coach), which is about the peak of the abilities that he really has.
VanGorder won the Broyles award in 2003
I remember when chump change Greg Davis won the Broyles award in 2005 but that was literally because the call a shitty play and watch Vince Young be Superman and save your stupid arse play worked so often.
I went and looked at the roster for 2003 UGA on defense and man I know Champ Bailey was my age so I know he was already a Deadskin. Who were the best players Pollack and Davis?
That probably is a thread in and of itself. Clearly I'm pretty sure Uncle Rico is the worst Broyles winner of all time but we've had some shitty lincoln logs win the award over the years.
