Canāt wait for that second transfer portal to begin. I think UH still has quite a few booms in their arsenal.

Need Rivals subscr to see the list.
It feels good to be on the other side of these moves.

It seems like there would be more duties but Iām talking about decision-making. If the OC outranks you then why not call it asst. OC?
Seems like co-anything is just gridlock.
Iām not sure I understand the excitement of making Tulaneās offensive line coach our co-OC. Was their offensive line the key to their success?
It does look like he was successful at ULM as an offensive coordinator, I suppose:
Naghavi produced prolific offenses in four seasons at ULM. For three straight years (2017-19), the Warhawks ranked in the top four in the Sun Belt in total offense and passing offense while the offensive line was third in the league in fewest sacks allowed each of those years. His 2017 unit was No. 2 in the conference and among the Top 25 in FBS in scoring, passing and total offense, including a school-record four 50-point games, all against Sun Belt foes.
I wouldnāt mind if he was calling the plays next year. (Really, anyone but Dawson at this point.)
The recruiting stuff seems good.
An unrelated-to-UH asideā¦
Lance Guidry mentioned above. For those of you who donāt recognize the name, he was known for giving a couple pregame speeches as the interim at Miami (OH) and WKU that both went viral. I believe it may have been the basis for the opening of Ted Lasso.

Their offense is predicated on the runā¦

One of my off-the-wall beliefs is that co-OCās should call the plays sometimes. Especially if the offense is struggling, but really most games. Like one drive in four or five. See if it works. Kind of a backup strategy. Itās painful to watch an offense come in with a losing strategy and all of the eggs are in that basket.
My even more off-the-wall belief is that you should do this with quarterbacks, too. Make swapping quarterbacks more routine and itās not a vote of no-confidence and it takes the air out of ācontroversyā. Sometimes the better QB has a worse game, for whatever reason. If you start putting the backup in more because what heās doing is working, the assumption remains that the starter will start next week.

I like the hireā¦ seems like a real up and comer. Hope he can lands us a couple more recruits. We shore up OL a bit we are looking very dangerous next season!

This is a good first step. Second step, kick Dawson out the door. Dawsonās offenseā¦3rd and 7ā¦no problem. Letās check the Dawson play chart:
- Draw
- 6 yard fade
- 5 yard curl
- 4 yard out
- 3 yard slant
- 2 yard rub route
- 1 yard tunnel screen
- 0 yard bubble screen
- Take a sack

I agree, have to be more aggressive on offense!

I donāt get the Dawson hate. Itās Danaās offense, not Dawsonās. He still has his play calling responsibilities because heās doing what Dana is asking of him. Thatās why he was brought here after being Danaās assistant in West Virginia.

This. The reason why Dana wonāt say crap about Dawson. He is doing exactly what Dana wants

The thought is that if you can recruit OL to Tulane and develop that next level success that he can do it at Houston

Dawson doesnāt need pressure, he needs a different job. Preferably someplace far far away.
