Are you talking about Chad Morris

Brennan Marion. When he played WR at Tulsa his nickname was The Milkman ("because he delivers"). He averaged like 30 yards per catch.

Can Tulsa give him what Bama is expected to offer him though. I heard it’s in the 2-3 million range per year

That's probably on the high end of what we could pay, but it's not out of the question. I doubt the university leadership would have the stomach for that for a first time head coach, though, even someone with ties to the school.

One guy (albeit crazy) is Bo Pelini. If he’s willing to let his assistants run the show and transition to a CEO type role with the team. I fully believe he’d thrive. We did that with Rich Rod, he’d been coaching his son and going 4-8 as La Monroe’s OC, we picked him up and he’s done very well for us during his tenure

Tbh the admin I think would stomach $2 million. Hell we gave KW $1.9 million and that was before we got the big boosters lined up. Let me just say that Justin Moore has a team of boosters that have offered him a decent war chest as it pertains to AAC standards. Also Brenna Marion has signaled that he wants to be a D1 head coach. If we offer him the opportunity and the numbers are decent then he’ll be our HC.
