In response to "sending your resume to Kiffin? -- nm" by crash davis

Actually, I was curious because ESPN was reporting that Pat Ruel was out as OL coach.

and discussing that with a guy at work. We weren't exactly sure about the limitations.

I hope Ruel stays, I don't pretend to be an expert at OL play, but consensus seems to be he's a good coach.

Responses:

in my fantasy world, the dude who recruits the big Samoans for the line gets fired by Kiffin - crash davis Jan 21, 13:46 2
- Did you already try that once with Nick Holt? (nm) - musubi Jan 21, 13:50 1
  - we gave him the big job, being wiser now, I'm talking just an assistant position - crash davis Jan 21, 13:56
The reason for that is James Cregg left UT to re-join Kiffin. - David Jan 21, 13:41 8
- Yeah, but Ruel is still listed as a coach on the USC website. They are still within the limits w both Ruel and Cregg - musubi Jan 21, 13:49 7
  - Cregg coached OL at UT and Oakland. I'm not sure he can coach anything else. -- nm - David Jan 21, 13:51 6
    - The bio I read on the UT website suggested he had previous experience coaching both sides of the line. - musubi Jan 21, 13:53 5
      - Well, he can't do DL because that's Orgeron, so that leaves OL. As for opinions, he was fine and a solid recruiter. -- nm - David Jan 21, 13:55 4
        
        Just spit-balling, but Orgeron could be Offensive Coord. Leaving Cregg and Ruel the minutae of line coaching. - musubi Jan 21, 13:58 3
        
        It's not a likely scenario since Orgeron has never coached offense in his life, much less schemed a gameplan for it. -- nm - David Jan 21, 14:01 2
        
        (If you want Ruell to stay, your best hope is for to coach TE or something like that.) -- nm - David Jan 21, 14:01 1
        
        Yeah, that's only slightly less likely than Orgeron switching sides of the ball, I guess. (nm) - musubi Jan 21, 14:04
