Would love to know how you know that but if it's true very disappointing. Law, Doesn't someone you know able to contact him? We have called the top guys and have left messages no response back yet but I hope they are listening. We have the big money former player alums calling and pushing hopefully the right buttons.

Would love to know how you know that but if it's true very disappointing.

We don't want him at OL if Magee gets the job I'm sure Greg Frey will come back with him

He turned down those jobs last year. He got fired because he was talking to another University about a job

My #1 is still Calvin but I understand why you guys like Willie. I played against Willie when he played at WKU. I just don't think he is old enough to take over this program, I know I wouldn't be

I like that Doug is sitting with Taggert hope he is sitting with Magee tomorrow

I played for coach C and like the man but I have never brought his name up because I don't think he is the right fit for the job. He can't make an impact that a Taggert or Magee can in recruiting, player relations, alumni relation, scheme and WINNING!!!!! I will go out and say this Magee or Taggert could lock up AW on the first day of the job!!!!

I would agree with this. We don't need our opinions to way heavily on this. If Magee can do it then I'm all for it, but I don't want him just because some former players like him. I think a lot of Bucs players liked Raheem Morris and that worked out well. Coaching is not a popularity contest. I'm biased against him not even because of him, but because he's got the stink of RichRod on him. But that doesn't mean he won't be entirely different. If he can give us a great offense while also giving us a great D and locking down recruits then sign me up. The prospect of someone caring as little about D as RichRod seems to does scare me, however, and the discipline issues worry me - but that's all related to Rod. I don't agree with your opinion but it is your opinion. I think anyone that is passionate about something or someone should let their voice be heard. I am simply saying Magee because I have researched the landscape and believe he is the best man for the job for multiple reasons. I also like Taggert never met the guy but I think he would do a good job because of his ties to the area. As a leader you take every voice into consideration then you make your decision of all the data and we are part of that data. I just want this University to be the best it can be. Bottom Line

GA reads the boards on occasion. Introduce yourself as a former player and throw the question on his blog or twitter feed. I'm almost positive he'll respond. OK will do

We miss Lee Roy apart of this program what a great human being. RIP

My worry is that Woolard is doing the search basically himself (with his staff). I saw this mentioned elsewhere, but realistically that likely means he either has "his guy" already in mind, or a very very short list. That could be good or bad. Will be interesting to see what Greg has to say. I hope that atleast give people like Magee a chance to interview. I hope so too. All we want as players is for him to get a serious look and not a fly over. GA I don't know if you read this board but if you do can you please share that.

I have contacted a ton of former players. We are all emailing DW pushing for Calvin Magee. We care about this program just as much as the fans, we want to hire the right guy to rebuild what is broken and to build it back to something that was greatER than what once was. We are trying to have our voice heard, will he listen only time will tell.

I love those tweets!!! He is just not a guy that will stay and win. We will do all this coaching seearch stuff again very soon in my opinion.

This would be an awful hire!!! We don't need a guy at the end of his career. I would not by into this hire.

We need to lock up Magee so he can go lock up AW. I'll go watch that duo every week and in between

wouldn't impress me if he was sitting in my living asking me to play for him. No FL ties will drowned in this state recruiting.

Faza thank you for really seeing what I'm talking about and not getting blinded by this crazy time of the year called coaching carousel. I just hope DW will give him a interview and really sit and listen to him and his passion for this program and community.

That's a pretty convincing argument. I can't help but feel like that's an endorsement I would listen to. Throwing those names out there like you did on the thread - with the collective experience there, it's hard to argue against. Magee wouldn't be the "splash" name that might bring the immediate "homerun hire" label - but he could very well be one of the only true "homerun hires" we have out there. Loyalty, connection with our former players, intimate knowledge of the program and the state, and enough time outside the system at some winning programs to have seen some things he could bring back to implement here... you might just have sold me on him law87. Can we count on you guys to make your voices heard to Doug? There are those of us on here who could be of significant help, though I wouldn't imagine you'd need it. We would do whatever we need to reach out to doug. But just like on the field we need the fans help to win. I believe that he is truely the only one that can really gel everything back together. I do believe that Taggert would be the next guy that could mend this. With your comments I know you understand where we are coming from. I know that he would bring back Frey and he would bring other great coaches he met along the way. He could jump on the road and sure up our recruiting class with ease, what a great recruiter for this state HS coaches will love him!!!!

I hope soon this is a very important time of the year with signing day coming up very soon

Magee would put together a staff we would love.

Magee or Taggert

1. Magee 2. Taggert 3. McCarney 4. Quinn 5. Ron Turner

I am a little biased but I just want the best for our program. I want the days back where I thought that rayjay was the only thing happening in the world at that moment. remembering the noise in the stadium was unbelievable and it couldn't get any better than that moment. I dont see any weakness with Calvin other than the fact that he doesn't have head coaching exp. but he could have got a sunbelt or cusa job long time ago but passed to wait for this job.... his dream job. He will bring an intensity that has not been seen on those practice field for a long time. But Muschamp had zero head coaching exp too but it worked out for those guys. just saying. I'm not that biased I thing my next guy I would want is Willie T

Thank you
