Just straight across the field, holding hands! :mad::confused:
Here ya' go. Put in a punt block defense. This is essentially, your "11" defense. Turns out, that holding hands isn't necessary, as this defense proved effective.

 
it very well could be a factor. especially if he's looking for a place that will pay comparable to what he was making at SDSU. COL is very much a factor in a lot of businesses when people make career choices.

So you're telling me that there a lot of people in their 70s with multiple millions in the bank that are moving to FAR less desirable locations to save some extra cash for their 80s and 90s? I met 0 people in my years in San Diego who were leaving for the northeast for any other reason than they couldn't afford it anymore.
 
So... is this a real option or a bunch of hot air?

If he comes here it will because he and Dino get along and he just wants to be a DC. Old dudes who have been successful are weird.
 
Long is looking to get out of the responsibility of being a HC, that’s why he’s looking at coordinator jobs. That’s been stated over and over.
He actually made the move from HC to DC once before - when he came to SDSU.
 
There's some really minor Twitter chatter that he's also been talking to Washington State and USC but it's been quiet otherwise.
 
I would love to have him, but I hope Dino tells him if we don't get an answer (contractually binding) in the next 48 hours, we are going to interview others. It's already been 2 months-Don't need it to mirror our QB recruiting, where we wait around while our #1 guy shops around. There are other good guys out there.

I think that's more like "he's a West coast guy, why wouldn't he talk with WSU and USC?". the only school that has been reported that he's spoken with is SU.

Unconfirmed reports that Long is done at San Diego State have been out for 30 minutes and you're already at move it or lose it?

Some people on this board should try yoga or something.

I'm not talking in reference to that. I'm saying if he's going to start interviewing at other places or needs a few weeks to think about it. Interviewing other people doesn't mean Long can't get the job. It's having a plan B and C prepared instead of trying to just throw something together last minute like our QB recruiting has been the last few years.

Usually when someone visits campus and interviews, and then quits their current job without interviewing anywhere else, it would be a pretty forgone conclusion that they were hired.

I mean, I put a lot of stock in what TexanMark said. Could be that we had something lined up, and this opportunity suddenly appeared. There's so many channels here - agents, grapevine, personal connections - that Long's interest could have popped up and SU swooped.
