Welcome to the Andy Staples show. It is your Sunday brunch edition. I hope you are cooking

something delicious. I hope you will tweet it out and let me see it so I can be jealous because I

will be drinking water and or tea

until noon. But Matt Fortuna is joining us. We had a really interesting day of college football,

Matt, not always necessarily because of what happened on the field. Had a coaching hire break

right in the middle of the night a very um

i want to be careful how i say this because i don't know exactly why shame beber wasn't coached

night it was presumably covid-19 or contact tracing related but um as far as timing it's kind of convenient no

i mean i'm literally watching the oklahoma game as brvin, our colleague, breaks that story. And I'm like, oh, that'll be an awkward press conference. Oh, wait, Jason Kersey's tweeting. He's not there tonight. And it's not related to this. So that was interesting. And it didn't have to be an awkward press conference. They didn't have to bring him out to the press conference. did it but well i guess link you'll get asked about it either way but it's um that's an interesting one i mean

i that's the guy that I felt like was the front runner all along. And look, I'm sure I know Shane Beamer. I like Shane Beamer. I think everyone who's ever so much is tweeted about Kyle Schwabell has a relationship with this guy because he's that personable and um that kind of ever

present and he's a great guy uh i wish him well i hope he does great um i will say the idea of a guy

who's never been a coordinator before becoming this i can't miss hire at an cc school is is interesting

to me i don't i don't think people think he's a can't miss.

This move, if you look at social media,

is getting criticized pretty heavily.

Is it?

Yeah.

And my thing on that,

and obviously he will have to do quite a bit to join this list,

but let me give you three names of people who were never an offensive or defensive coordinator before they got their first head coaching job. Ready? I wonder where you're going with this. Urban Meyer, Debo Sweeny, Ed O'Dron. There you go. Okay. Very nice. Yeah. You don't have to be. No, you don't. You don't. I'm just saying the idea of him being the frontrunner all along, which was what the smoke screens were saying. This was the only school that would have happened at, though. Yeah. He was there. There or his last employer, which might be in the market for someone if they lose to Virginia next. His last employer was Georgia.

No, that's right.

Yeah, sorry.
