Venzy just signed a 4 year extension at Clemson.

That means a lot, IMO.

No buyout of he takes a head coach job, IIRC. Talked about it on ESPN when they interviewed Dabo about his AC's, and Venzy about his limited desire to be a HC.

Clemson may have just made the extension official today but it was rumored around new years when ATM was out looking for a new DC

This Oklahoma State guy was ITK on a lot of realignment issues and tweeted this the other day:

@GSwaim: As #KState's LHC Bill Snyder retires, expect #Clemson defensive coordinator Brent Venables to be his replacement. #EMAW

Coach suggested in the presser today that he plans to coach through at least next season. Usually he says he has no idea how long he'll continue, or that he'll coach as long as he likes it, his players respond to him, and his health is good.

2015 could be it, guys. Get ready, John Currie.

I don't think the contract thing means anything fwiw. I also don't buy that he doesn't want to be hc.

He only needs 13 wins to get to 200. It will likely take two years to do that.

LHOFHCBS isn't one for stuff like that, but I'd like to see him get there.

Would love that. Still hate that Sproles ended his career only like 14 yards shy of 5,000.

Venzy makes too much sense for Currie, he like to think he is smartest guy in the room like John Dorsey

I'll ask you one question. Do you think Bazooka Joe is going to let Snyder retire before he reaches 200 wins?

201 for all the marbles.

You're right. Let's talk about our favorite Canadian college coaches and CFL coaches as candidates, it's just as likely of a possibility.

Who would you be excited about to replace Snyder?

michigancat · « **Reply #1619 on:** January 10, 2015, 01:04:30 PM »

Wait, I realized you're saying Currie won't hire an assistant. Although you're likely right, I don't think that's a given.

It says in the bible that there is a time for all things under heaven, maybe the time for John Currie to hire a non-former HC is now? I'll have to defer to the biblical scholars on this, however. I am merely speculating, and do not have any sources close to the heavenly host. CITE THIS BLOG IF YOU STEAL THIS INFO, SWAIM, YOU rough ridin' HACK!

While nothing is absolute his history is what it is; he's 7 for 7 hiring head coaches to run the programs here.

0% of the head football coaches he's hired at ksu had previous head coaching experience!

Venables is the biggest name he will get, HC or assistant, if this year's hires are any indication.

But Currie doesn't strike me as the kind of guy to go against his history.

WHAT??? There were seven power five hires and all of them were much "bigger" than Venables, the only one who wasn't was Beatty.
Wisconsin-Paul Chryst
Oregon St.-Gary Anderson
Nebraska- Mike Riley
Florida-Jim McElwain
Michigan-Jim Harbaugh
Pitt-Pat Narduzzi
Narduzzi was the only assistant in the bunch and people were surprised that he settled with Pitt because he could have went anywhere. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't be breaking any sinks if we hired Venables but he is a DC who was just fired 3 years ago and has never been a candidate for a job. If we couldn't get "bigger" than that we should just shut it down. He's not some hot shot young coordinator, he's 44 years old and had the same position for 16 seasons without sniffing a promotion.
