How about Tony Franklin, Louisiana Tech OC, to replace Yost?

I think the scheme is a big part of the problem, too. Covering up a slot WR with Andrew Wilson, with safety support over the top, just makes it too easy for opposing offenses.

Not a bad idea, though I wonder if he has the recruiting ties.
We need a new recruiter something fierce. This class, by the time we start putting pen to paper, is going to be Hosik and tripe (and having spoken to a couple friends of mine that are coaches in the KC area and have played against Hosik, he's pretty much garbage at QB himself). We're fast approaching a world of shit if we can't get this think kicked into gear in a hurry. It doesn't take much more than a season or two to be relegated to back-burner status. In 2 weeks we managed to extinguish every single drop of momentum created over the last 12 months. We have to do something to get it going again.

I'd have probably put the gap between Henson and Kuligiowski (as I think Ford does a little more than that and Henson should get a little more credit as well), but yeah that seems like a pretty good breakdown.
Like I was telling a buddy of mine, the worst thing we ever did with Yost was promote him. It would've been great to keep him on board as the QB coach, where he could turn up the charm and recruit his ass off. But he was the QB coach during the best QB era in Mizzou history, so you owe him the chance to fail, I suppose. Oh well. This has surely been a lousy month for Mizzou. Here's hoping they're able to get the bleeding stopped, bring in a premier OC and get the thing heading in the right direction again.

He's the primary decision maker on whether they offer a DLman or not, and I think his track record is pretty peerless. He's found a TON of high-end guys that were not rated as high-end guys. And he has had nice success in Texas in the past. I think Ford's a good recruiter, but the separation for me comes from a few areas: 1) Mizzou is TRYING in St. Louis now 2) Mizzou is much better 3) Ford is black I think those factors - outside of Ford's control -have a lot to do with his success in St. Louis.

I'm far more excited that we'll have a new QB coach, than an OC.
While his play calling maddened me, I've got a laundry list of problems I've had with his development if QBs (and I don't know a ton about coaching QBs, but there were some consistent problems with Mizzou QBs ever since Smith). |

Having met Yost ten years ago, I thought he was an aggorant ****ing ass. Couldn't stand the mother ****er. And my good friend wouldn't take their walk-on offer because of Yost.

Since Yost was also the QB coach, do we have to focus on O-coordinators that can also coach QBs?
If not, do we let a lower-level assistant go to bring in a pure QB coach? |

Do you think that Mauk will get serious consideration for the QB position next year? |

I'm a huge fan of Mauk (have been hearing about him for years thanks to a contact in Ohio who works in the industry) and think he has a chance to be a very special player. I like what a healthy Franklin brings to the table, but at this point, Mauk will get a chance to compete for the job. If the new scheme is pass-heavy, it will be Mauk, IMO.
