I’m scared to hire a college guy but NFL coaches are going to him to learn more about his RPO philosophies.

I’m hoping for Sean Payton but I’ll take Lincoln Riley for sure at this point over Garrett.

We have to move on from that guy even if it’s for change sake.
Payton has a contract til 2020. Not sure how he would even get here

Not just this fan base, reportedly 28 nfl teams have talked to him about his gimmick offense.

Great, let the the other 28 teams get him. He hasn’t done a frigging thing.

You could be right. I like what i see so far but hes young. Only 35 and done a decent amount in that time. Hire a good dc and let him go at it. What i like is creativity and adapting to his personnel. Out of curiosity, who are your top candidates? At this point i just want jg gone.

Shaw, petersen and others would thrill me too.

It was on NFLN about a half hour ago. Was surprised I didn’t see it posted. He said of course this doesn’t happen if Garrett’s around but said he heard that Jones’s like what he did with Baker Mayfield. This season was worth it if it ends with Lincoln Riley
Not a gimme these days to give up a top college HC job for the NFL.

The contract means little. Almost all coaches that are fired have years left on their contract.

But I agree that Riley coming here is very far-fetched

Payton isnt getting fired no has no reason to replace him. Riley has a bigger chance of landing here imo than payton

They can give him both Garrett's and Linehan's salaries...

I think the bigger issue is Riley interested in the NFL?

There’s been several rumbles with interest in him but those around Riley have denied he has any interest.
NFL job used to be plum job, but the trend is reverse now. He could get top 5 college salary in 6 million range and can stay at OU for next 25 years, why would he want to come to NFL and suck up to Jerry?
