Lubick -- Er, Bonerpop couch update: Phil Longo edition
He got to Ole Miss last year to replace Lubick. He's an Air Raid guy. Known as a tireless recruiter, etc. My guess is he's our choice. He fits the profile of what Pete likes in coaches in that he's white.

Never mind that shit. HERE COMES LONGO!Dennis_DeYoung said:At this point we are either clearly replacing Lubick with Phil Longo and just waiting for the early signing period to finalize it, or this guy needs to be arrested for stalking. He's following every target we are serious about, a ton of our players and many of our coaches.

Or 10th coach candidate?

I doubt it. That would mean we'd end up with 6 coaches on O and 4 on D. That doesn't seem to make sense to me. Are we going to have fucking inside and outside WR coaches like WSU and Tech?BlowItUp said:Or 10th coach candidate?
I fucking hope not. -
Phil Longo, engineer of the nation’s best FCS offense at Sam Houston State, was tabbed as the Rebels’ offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach on December 16, 2016.
Longo helped Sam Houston to the FCS Playoffs in each of his three seasons, while shattering the record books. The 2016 team went 12-1 and boasted the nation’s No. 1 total offense (547.3 ypg), No. 2 scoring offense (49.5 ppg), No. 2 passing offense (368.3 ypg) and No. 37 rushing offense (179.0 ypg) out of 122 FCS teams. The Bearkats scored touchdowns on 80.3 percent of their red zone chances, also best in the nation.
Sam Houston had more than 4,500 passing yards and 2,000 rushing yards in 2016. No FBS team accomplished that.
In Longo’s three years on head coach K.C. Keeler’s staff, SHSU won the Southland Conference twice (2014, 2016) and compiled a 34-10 overall record. The Bearkats advanced to the semifinals of the FCS Playoffs in 2014 and 2015 and quarterfinals this year, while rising as high as No. 1 in the FCS national polls in both 2015 and 2016.
The red zone was a key area of success for Longo’s offense. Over the last three years, no FBS team has had more red zone touchdowns than the 145 scored by the Bearkats.
Despite featuring a pass-heavy attack, Longo’s units also ranked top 10 among FCS teams in rushing in both 2014 and 2015. Sam Houston produced 1,000-yard rushers in 2014 (Keshawn Hill) and 2015 (Corey Avery) and a 900-yard rusher this past season (Remus Bulmer).
In 2015, Sam Houston’s 7,975 total yards set a Southland Conference season record and ranked third all-time in NCAA Division I FCS history. The Bearkats led the nation in total offense (531.7 ypg) and first downs per game (27.6). They ranked No. 5 in scoring (41.1 ppg) and No. 9 in rushing (254.5 ypg), while also ranking 14th in third-down conversions (45.7 percent).
The 1,275 plays run by Longo’s offense in 2015 was also a league record. Three times in the past three seasons SHSU ran more than 100 plays in a game, including a school-record 118 plays in the 2015 NCAA opening-round victory over Southern Utah.
In 2014, Longo’s attack led the Southland in rushing (241.6 ypg, 9th nationally) and red zone offense (90 percent, 8th nationally).
Regarded as an outstanding recruiter and quarterbacks coach, Longo helped Bearkats QB and first team All-American Jeremiah Briscoe set a school record with 4,602 passing yards in 2016, while Sam Houston had the first two 1,000-yard receivers in school history in the form of junior Yedidiah Louis (1,152) and freshman Nathan Stewart (1,004). Briscoe led all FCS players with 57 touchdown passes (to 10 interceptions), while ranking second nationally in passing (354.0 ypg) and third in total offense (349.9 ypg). -
The weird thing is usually coaches know each other. I'm trying to understand if there is any connection between him and Pete. The only connection I see is Lubick. Which is weird.
-
he’s following everyone even the uw video guy. somethings up.

Your shift key broke or sum?BlowItUp said:he’s following everyone even the uw video guy. somethings up.

Also - could he be coming on as a consultant? That's possible as well.

Maybe a recruiting consultant? He can teach Malloe how to use the twitters, the instagrams, and the cell phones.Dennis_DeYoung said:Also - could he be coming on as a consultant? That's possible as well.
#youmayrunlikemaysbutyouhitlikeshit -
He coached Jordan Ta'amu and Jeremiah Briscoe, but he didn't recruit Shea Patterson. Briscoe won the Walter Payton award last year, and Ta'amu has played pretty well this year for a first-year JUCO transfer.
Complete unknown as a recruiter, but if Coach Pete thinks he can develop QBs, that's worth considering when you consider how little Browning has actually progressed despite being a 3-year starter. -
He’s white so count me out!
-
is HH once again at risk of breaking real news????
this place is gonna need to get a media pass soon. -
oh wait...just realized this could be Pete building up the staff he's going to take with him to Tennessee!Dennis_DeYoung said:At this point we are either clearly replacing Lubick with Phil Longo and just waiting for the early signing period to finalize it, or this guy needs to be arrested for stalking.

Another possibility is that we are losing a coach that could be a recruiting coordinator... Longo has been an RB coach, too.
This is an odd situation, but I'm intrigued. -
The guy is built like a brick shithouse as my dad would say....doesn't look like a WR coach.Dennis_DeYoung said:Another possibility is that we are losing a coach that could be a recruiting coordinator... Longo has been an RB coach, too.

Ok - my official hunch:
This guy is cut from the Lubick/Ed Orgeron cloth in terms of recruiting. He has fucking 18k followers on twitter. He's follows our recruits' parents.
I have heard that OSU is expecting some UW coaches to come with @Babushka - I'm guessing those coaches are likely to be one (or more) of: Boner, Paopao and Gregory.
OSU has not hired a RB coach yet. My bet is Boner is set to go to OSU after signing day (gotta hold on to that Fig Newton commit!!) and Longo will come here and take over RC duties.
I think probably the reason Boner is waiting is that he is RC and that would be intense to have him leave prior to the 20th.
That's my best guess. -

But since you want everyone to know... Coker's gay lover was the first person to come up with this idea. I'm like Thomas Edison in this bitch. Tesla died in obscurity and no fucking brand of cars named after him is going to fix the suffering that he went through. Remember that. -

Chinteresting. On one hand, Bonerpills' results as a recruiter have been less than amazing, but on the other hand he is one of the few black coaches we have and I like how shameless he is in following pieces of ass on twitter even though he has a wife and a small child.
It's nice to have at least slimy guy, but I guess if you're gonna be that guy you better get results. Wouldn't necessarily be the biggest loss. And if we're going for slimy, an Italian guy from Jersey is not a bad bet. And he was a recruiting coordinator at one poont. -

"Then why isn't Matt Lubick following low grade sport reporter pieces off ass?"
"I'm the recruiting coordinator, I have to!"
--My feelings on Bonerpop are mixed. I think he's obviously a good coach, but as a recruiter it doesn't seem like he was able to make the step up to the big time.
In all his years here, he never got anything better than a par. If Longo comes in, my guess is we at least have a chance with Austin Jones. -
I like the Bonerpop theory.
Great bonus about Longo is I assume he would give us a real shot at Shea Patterson.
I wouldn't hate this at all. -
I like Mongo as RC. We need a brutha as an RB coach tho.
-
More on Longo - he's the obvious next in line if and when Bush takes an HC job.
On the surface I wasn't sure how well he did as Ole Miss's OC this year because NOGAF about Ole Miss this year, including me. But after a little digging, I think he did a hell of a job.
The big thing is Ole Miss jumped from 6.2 to 6.9 yards per play over last season under Longo's leadership. This is especially impressive considering a) it was a lost season from the start (think UW 2003, coach fired in the summer type deal), b) they had Chad Kelly last year.
I have feelers out to my OM people and will let you know their general impressions and whatnot, but this looks like a case of Pete stealing a guy thanks to the sanctions.
Wouldn't be shocked if they made him co OC rather than RC but I agree RC is more likely. Either way he won't be cheap, he was scheduled to make $700,000 next season.
This is a championship level hire. -
Losing Bonerpop is only acceptable if we(?) get Yankoff. Gonna have a pretty weak innuendo game without one of them...
