[NU Sports] No posts regarding McGee?

[Joe Thiegs]

Let's go get Ed Orgeron for our DC.  He doesn't have a job yet, right?  That
would give recruiting quite a boost too.

On offense, it's too bad the timing didn't work out to get Mitch Browning.
He was OC for six years for an incredibly hard-to-stop Minnesota offense (if
the Gophers ever had a defense to go with it they would have been really
scary).  He is a particularly excellent o-line coach too.  After Glen Mason
and his staff were let go a year ago, Browning was asked by the AD to stay
on temporarily to keep things running and hold on to as many recruits as
possible during the head coach search, which he did admirably.  A lot of
people expected Brewster to keep him as the lone hold-over from the Glen
Mason regime, and Tim gave him an interview but decided to start with a
clean slate and then hired Mike Dunbar.  Anyway, last month Syracuse picked
up Browning as their new OC, and I doubt he'd quit to come to NU after
signing only a month ago, especially since he goes way back with Orange HC
Greg Robinson.

Arkansas grabs NU's offensive coordinator

A few people on the list were trying to get rid of him, but I was not one of
him.

I think that have no offensive coaching continuity will damage the 2008
season.  The transition between RW(the real OC) to McGee was painful.  This
will be even worse.

I did not like KWs comment about the fact we don't pay enough given the
price of Evanston, but I understand it.  I believe we pay comparably, but
Evanston is just expensive, but it could be misinterpreted as we pay below
market.

Who are your "fantasy" OC/DC choices?

For OC I like either Bob Christian, Zak Kustok, or Matt O'Dwyer.

For DC I like Vandy, a Michigan position coach that is not retained, or
Casey Dailey.  Anything on defense is a potential improvement.
