To fsu as OC.
This is a weird trend to go from HC to OC (Chip Kelly).

Not a big fan of the Malzahn as OC at this point with what he runs. If FSU doesn't get lucky in the portal with players they might struggle with his stuff.

I really wonder if Malzahn thinks this is a way to back-door into the FSU head coaching job.

NIL is making HC less desirable; especially for the older coaches.
I believe that is true, but I don't understand why. Did they like it better when alumni were sneaking around, greasing players' palms, and they lived in constant fear of the NCAA hammer? This is just the same, except no more sneaking and no more hammer.

All I can think is that they don't like no longer being able to go to boosters and say "The NCAA plays favorites, we can't catch Bammer and the Dwags (and LSU and Ohio State) as long as they are allowed to buy players and we aren't". It's a lot harder to say "you stingy so and so's want to win, you got to pony up some more cash". That message isn't really going to go over well with boosters. Other than that, no clue.

It's like the wild west these days. Get a gun and practice your draw, it'll be high noon soon. :p

Maybe they did. Saban all but said it's why he retired.
 
It could be interesting to see Frost return, or they lean more towards Mullen, which I doubt he's interested. Frost could very well win them another "national championship."


Mullen should go to UNC. That's his type of program, not the pressure of winning NC each yr.

Malzahn to fsu as OC is OK I guess, I'd laugh so hard if they fire norvell and upgrade Malzahn lol

Don't think it's not being discussed behind closed doors. If you fire Norvell, you'll have a pretty great interim...and I really like the DC hire.

Doesn't Malzahn run the spread offense, with an emphasis on running and getting QBs killed? Unless Norvell finds a Cam Newton under a rock somewhere, I don't see this working out well. Malzahn is a decent OC, terrible head corch. I'm just glad Stricklin didn't do this to us, otherwise, we'd have another January 6th on our hands next year. 😂

Malzahn as an OC is fine. Bama did this with failed HCs for the longest. Not saying malzahn is kiffin or Sark. He's just a terrible HC

But that great interim is not Malzahn. As I mentioned earlier, Tony White will eventually get a HC gig sooner rather than later.
