So does this thread move over to the Gill retirement thread or do they complement one another - one to honor Turner Gill the man and the other to speculate about his replacement?

I think the Gill retirement thread should be about Gill. We can pick up where we left off here on the discussion of his replacement.

Art isn’t coming here. Last I heard Ian was trying to distance himself from him.

It’s been reported Freeze and Tenn agreed to a deal to be their next OC.

If Ian was smart he would go with a guy who’s familiar with Liberty. A guy who has a history of developing talent aka QBs. An up and comer in the coaching world... and that’s Brandon Streeter.

One advantage of Streater is he has relationships with some of the coaches a lot of us would like to see retained (I´m thinking mainly of Mike Brown and Kyle DeArmon). Any of the ¨name¨ coaches who have been mentioned would likely want to start out with a clean slate and hire ¨their guys¨.

Streeter is a hire I definitely could get behind...and he was a pretty fair QB in his own right down in Death Valley before he ended up on staff

I think Freeze would pass on the UTK OC job in a New York minute if we offered and paid enough. Having said that, I really hope we don´t.

Yeah. I think he’s take this head job over the UT OC. And LU would be foolish not to make the call

Larry Fedora is always out there. Fell off the tracks at the end at Carolina but had three strong seasons while he was there, not to mention some solid years at Southern Miss. Just a thought :dontgetit

I honestly think the best combo that we can get is Brandon Streeter H.C and Chad Wilt as D.C. Both of those guys have their groups rolling right now at Clemson and Army. Would also love to see Manny Roajs get back here as well.

Great combo but a high price tag.

Well I hope he has a talent for developing great RBs because I think we got a potentially great one in RB Mack from Maine, FCS leading RB in 2017. I hope the kid dosen't bail! What's the rule on that in this situation??? Anybody know?

I really don't know how to feel about hugh freeze. We have never been worried about optics. my gut reaction is a lot like when we hired Ian and while i still say that was a bad look its worked out pretty nicely. so I'm kinda torn.

Footballscoop with another tweet saying it’s basically a done deal.

Tell me how Gill retires and you are already working on a contract with Freeze.

Is that a real question? Because I think we all know the answer on that one.
