Stoops, himself, said he was interviewing another guy later on the week. Sounded like the latter part of this week. Kind of strange Jones would say that with Stoops still interviewing.
Matt Jones just tweeted new OC could be named tomorrow or Tuesday
- Thread starter Kampus Korner
- Start date
MJ is clueless about football, but he is always willing to make a careful, nuanced statement like this one and take a chance that something happens. If it doesn't, never comes up again. But if something happens, he and his fans never stop talking about it. It is a click generating racket.
Sure sounds an awful lot like he's just passing off rowland information as his own; yet without a credit.
He obviously is usually the most connected person, but he needs to give a hat tip to others when he isn't the one breaking the news

Looks like Boulware is right. Hope so. Tons of experience I think he was the TX head associate coach?
Jay Boulware would be a huge get. I think we tried to get him a few years back. At least inquired but he stuck with Texas.
No he’s been on the street for 2 years. Hard to get excited about a hire when nobody else has wanted to hire him.
the New OC may be named today or tomorrow. But if not, it could be next week. I think its Coen, but if not, there are other choices and they played football in the US and we will know them, if so, but maybe not.
great journalism

His Wikipedia article says he hasn't coached since 2020. His last position at Texas was Assisistant Head Coach, Special Teams, and Tight Ends
Stoops tried to hire him at that time, but he turned it down to take some time off. That's what I've heard.
That depends on who you ask. If you ask him he would say he's never wrong on anything. 🤣
I've doubted the "Coen to UK" story almost from the get-go primarily because there's been no reporting from the LA sports media. There's no way LA ignores a story about a coach from one of LA's pro teams leaving to take a college job. No way LA media lets that slide. It's a fanciful story, would be epic....if true. Actually if we go back to Stoops PC he tells us when he said something like: "There's a lot of misinformation here" and we failed to listen. This Coen thing was driven by Jones and others looking for hits and wanting to be first with a story no matter how bogus. I'll gladly eat crow if I'm wrong but I think we'll soon find out I'm not. Hopefully truth be told soon.
Matt Jones acknowledging others or giving others credit for breaking news. Laughable.
He built his brand on me, me, me and MJ is the smartest boy in the room with nothing official until he says it is. He needs two or three yes men hanging around to confirm just how smart he is.
On yesterday's show Matt said he was 95% sure Coen was coming. If he's that confident, I'd say you can pretty much take it to the bank.
Several other more trustworthy people than Jones seem to think signs are pointing to Coen. Just i guess a matter of working out final contract details & figuring out the timing.
yeah, and he spurned UK offers to go play for Cincy. Of course we had Jared Lorenzen at the time so that might have been a deterrent. He would've had a hard time being a four year starter at UK like he was at Cincy.
He is getting no info on this. That's why he keeps citing a certain rivals poster
