He's my top choice, but he would need to hire and experienced, proven DC.I'd be more worried about how they would fix the defense.

Well, you will never know and it will be discussed for ages that Jerry forced him on him.If Riley wants to keep Moore I'm more than cool with it.
But I want him to keep Moore because he wants to not because Jerry told him to.
So short sited...
Well, he is from OU. Yep, he’s the guy...
Why not pair Kellen with Petersen??
Look at what Petersen has done throuought his career. Talk about getting his teams to overachieve.
BSU used to always get 2 and 3* recruits, but Pete always got his team jacked up for big games, prepared great gameplans, and actually wins the bowls he plays in...
Didn’t Riley lose his last two bowls? Did he lose a NY6 to UCF?? That’s just sad...
It's a very rare college coach who succeeds in the NFL without first having worked in the NFL as an assistant. Cowboys fans are a bit biased owing to the success of Jimmy Johnson, but even his success came with a roster built before the salary cap began in 1994. The college game looks like NFL football, but it's a very different game.
I have no interest in another Chip Kelly, Lou Holtz, John McKay, Bobby Petrino, Mike Riley, Nick Saban or Steve Spurrier. I'd much prefer a rising young assistant from an NFL team who knows how a professional football team is organized (with no 125-man rosters and dealing with limited active game-day rosters), knows how to communicate with men making hefty salaries and knows how the game is played on a professional level.
I'd like Greg Roman better if you could factor out Lamar Jackson's talent in evaluating his success with the Ravens. But you can't.Then you’d love Greg Roman.
The same reason Parcells came... It's the Dallas Cowboys. Regardless of how Jerry's relationship is with his HCs, there still is a very powerful allure to coach the Cowboys.Why would Riley take THIS job...even if he wants to move to the NFL? At OU he has complete control of the roster, for the most part gets to pick the players he wants, is always in contention for a championship and makes as much (or more) than JG. Why come to Dallas to have less power for the same money?
OU will be good for several years...he'll get another chance.
Exactly, let new coach interview him and decide on his ownIf Riley wants to keep Moore I'm more than cool with it.
But I want him to keep Moore because he wants to not because Jerry told him to.
Riley isn't going to want to keep Moore. That would come from Jerry and be a clear sign that it's doomed to fail.
Give me somebody who makes Jerry compromise and if that isn't possible then I don't give two craps who the head coach will be.
I really hope this doesn't happen. This would really drain whats left of my enthusiasm for this organization.
on the bright side It would be more motivation to ignore the entire offseason and not listen to all the fake reports about this or that.
This guy is destined to be our Chip Kelly.
That’s my number one combination right now. You can even replace Riley with Meyer. Would be fantastic, IMO.Riley as head coach and Rivera as defensive coordinator would be an elite combination.
I agree. Riley needs to make the decision. Jerry forced Garrett on Wade, he can't make the same mistake again.Breer said Cowboys have affinity for Lincoln Riley. This follows what Finebaum said months ago. If they go this direction which I would welcome, a good indicator of how his tenure might go would be how many, if any, assistants Jerry forces on him. Jerry is said to want to keep Moore. I want a coach with the juice to name his own staff not another puppet that wants the job.
Why would Riley keep Moore? Riley would be hired to run the offense and call plays like he does at OU. Moore could perhaps be QB coach, but I doubt he'd step down like that.If Riley wants to keep Moore I'm more than cool with it.
But I want him to keep Moore because he wants to not because Jerry told him to.
This ... New coach should hire own staff in entiretyI'm happy to replace Garrett but the idea that Riley doesnt have an extensive background makes me wonder who they would get to help fix this defense. I don't see anyway your getting Rivera to take a DC position for a first time head pro coach. I could be wrong but Riley needs to have a defensive staff he wants and not what sounds good to us. And with Moore, I hope hes gone too. Let the new coach pick his own people. This idea of tying Riley or anyone else to Moore and any other coach he doesnt want/hand pick himself just sets up the puppet label. First bad game it will be Riley is a puppet because our offense sucks and its because he was forced to keep Moore.
Start fresh if your firing the head coach. That's my opinion.
