Here's a guess on a RB coach....

[BPsTheMan]

Now we are talking. We can't be the only 2 ppl on this board that thinks this is a great idea. I'm sure we can find at least one more........

add Gary Gibbs and... The Entire Clemson Coaching Staff

[tophawg19]

don't forget Conque and there was another one who's name i can't remember

[BPsTheMan]

don't forget Conque and there was another one who's name i can't remember

Rick Jones at Greenwood

[tophawg19]

gary gibbs was the other one add Jones and with those four we could win a National Championship and the Super Bowl in the same season

[Inhogswetrust]

How about Joe Foley! He's done great at UALR!

[tophawg19]

we are saving him for when Mike Anderson flames out

[Inhogswetrust]

we are saving him for when Mike Anderson flames out

Then lets go after Gino! He's done pretty good at UConn.

[Hogwild]

Isn't Jabbar Jaluke the guy many LSU fans want to replace Frank Wilson?

He'd be a great choice, if LSU doesn't hire him first.

Texas Tech already hired him, side note I work with Jaluke's cousin.


Looks like LSU is hiring Michael Smith to replace a coach that left for the 49ers.

[Soooie21]

How much did Coach Sing make here. This guy makes $192k.

310k

[BPsTheMan]

Let's just use this thread to make a historic statement before Super Bowl 50...

The greatest coach who ever lived is Gary Gibbs, followed closely by Clint Conque

And Steve Campbell at UCA

Dude, The LSU coach that left for the 49ers was a year ago. They replaced him with Ball the WR coach who was at UGA.

Now they may try to hire Michael Smith as a RB coach to replace Frank Wilson

Your right I am not sure who he would replacing, I just heard that LSU vetted him a year ago and he is the leading candidate for the position with them.

When I heard it on the radio I google it and got an article that said he was being considered to replace a coach the left for 49ers, didn't realize it was February 2015. 

[Paul]

hire my cousin Bill Shimek - he's only like 80 years old, he can still go

does Billy Sims have a son?  can he still stay in a motel for 40 days?  Remember him when he coached at Forrest City

[Hambunctious]

Who in the heck says Smith is going to LSU? Doesn't he have the non-compete clause in his contract?

[ricepig]

Don't think so, he was in the first group of coaches and I don't think his 1 yr extension had it in it. Every time there's an opening down there, the corndogs say he's in the running for the job.

[thefisher]

won't be ingram.  he got fired for soliciting a prostitute.

So .... are you insinuating that he would be a better match at Louisville?  Still to soon?

[lilRockNDubb]

I mean, someone may call it.  seriously, who called our current new assistant coaches??  Coach B think way outside the box it seems...

And who even called Bielema being hired. I know I sure didn't

[jjdlc]

I doubt CBB lets LSU get Smith without a fight.

[HOGINTENNESSEE]

I doubt CBB lets LSU get Smith without a fight.

I agree but 2 things will prevent him from staying.

1. It's his home. He left Kansas State where his is a Alum to come here to be closer to home.

2. LSU paid their last RB more than we paid Dan Enos last season

Now I'm pretty sure his daughter is on the Softball team here. So that is a plus for us

[lilRockNDubb]

Ok here you go 2 names..

Left field hire...
Claude Mathis

Home Run hire..
Tommie Robinson

[reddogjcss]

1. Must be a great recruiter.
2. Must be a great RB coach.
3. Want someone who is genius, best in business as Special Teams

That's what I want!

I am officially announcing myself as being available for the position of RB coach at the University Of Arkansas.   

[HoggusMaximus]

We need an ace recruiter with Texas ties.

NFL experience/Texas ties. But knowing Coach B it will be someone completely out of left field.

Smith has more experience coaching running backs, then he does wide receivers.  He's definitely on their radar and I hope we pay him enough to stay.  Even muddbone had positive things to say about Coach Smith while he was recruiting his son.

I'd forgotten about Tech hiring Juluke, but maybe he'd consider leaving for Arkansas, as George McDonald did after accepting our job?  It seems like it'd be worth a try and I'm sure he'd have better luck recruiting New Orleans for Arkansas, then TT.

Don't need the NFL experience. Just needs to be able to coach and have the respect of Texas coaches/players. Claude Mathis...

It's kind of like trying to guess what your wife is thinking...........O.K. Bad analogy. Sorry.

sadly, I know what she's thinking

[BPsTheMan]

George Wilson is qualified right now, and available

Wonder if he wants to coach?

[whosiskid]

I never even try to guess who Bielema will hire. To use what is now a slightly out of fashion expression, Bielema always thinks outside the box on his coaching hires. And while a couple of them have proven to not be so great, several have been brilliant. I love Anderson. We'll see how he does as a recruiter, but he is without any question the most fun coach we've had since . . . well, since Reggie Herring? He certainly has a lot of personality.

But all in all I think he has made some great choices.

I wouldn't be surprised if he went with a new WR coach and moved Smith to running back coach. I don't think there is any question that we would have gotten Devin White if Smith had been his position coach. Those Louisiana kids really love him. He has a background as a running back coach and had proven to be one of our best recruiters. I wouldn't mind seeing someone from the NFL like with Anderson.

[reddogjcss]

Every hire has been an Upgrade in my opinion and I figure this hire will be an UPGRADE also. I read where we had great coaches contacting us on OL opening and figure the same is happening now. That's a great situation to be in. Coaches wanting to come to Ark and coach under Bilema knowing it will improve there future hire stock. That's a great change even though it leads to some turn over.

[RaisinHog]

It's prolly gona be marshawn Lynch that's why he is retiring

[rkjones]

Your comment made me imagine Lynch and Kiero Small coaching together, and then it made me wonder what it would be like to have Small lead blocking for Lynch.  That would be a joy to see... unless you're on the opposing defense.

Lol I was just thinking we would never have a press conference from coach Lynch lmbo !! But I'm sure coach B has already been on the phone with Russell Wilson who shall act as the middle man to get this in the works

I'm glad you think of it that way.  Sam Pittman is damn good! I haven't seen our OL under  Anderson yet, but if we come out even on that one, I'll be satisfied.

[26.2Hog]

Home Run hire..
Tommie Robinson
http://m.usctrojans.com/m/sports/m-footbl/mtt/tommie_robinson_841813.html

You can forget Tommie Robinson. He has been at Texas the past two years, and three weeks ago he left Texas to return to USC.

If history is any guide then I would totally agree. Even with all the conjecture at various positions that have opened up I honestly don't recall anyone correctly forecasting the eventual hire yet.

[SooiecidetillNuttgone]

Tom Coughlin.
Did wonders with Tiki Barber and he's available.

Discuss.

Well, with BB's knack for completely off the radar picks, Coughlin is as credible as anyone else's guess.

Right?

Anderson is an upgrade over SP, just wait and you'll see...

[lilRockNDubb]

With Bielema you can forget all of the names being thrown around.. He would be considered a home run hire to most of HV. Well until he leaves then he turns into the worst thing to coach.

[thebignasty]

I think it'll be Darrel Royal's head or Tavern Johnston.

Dude....white was Going to lsu....they sponged his dads arrest records...wouldn't have mattered about smith..

Could be Houston Nutt back as RB coach! Lol lmbo
