How about the coach from Kansas who just beat Strong's Texas? Texas is/was/should be one of the top five programs/jobs in the country. Not sure about him. Louisville post Strong is better than Texas with Strong. Really do not get how Strong at Texas at this point in the season is not even bowl eligible. The accomplishment yesterday was inspiring a 1 win Kansas roster which even lost to Monroe's & B44's "mediocre" Ohio to beat the state of Texas's lead program. Texas with any kind of coaching should be right up there with Ohio State. Heck, Solich has never lost to Kansas in what was it 26 or 27 contests. Texas needs Fleck. Texas needs to get Fleck in Austin right after the Toledo game.

Not sure how inspired Kansas was, Texas had 6 turnovers. You tend to lose when you have 6 turnovers. It was more that Texas gave them the game than Kansas having such a inspired effort IMHO. But Kansas won, kudos to them.

I might take Charlie Strong's offensive coordinator and offer him a higher than average to be ours and there DB coach, if they can recruit.

Nobody despises to lose more than I do. That's got me into trouble over the years, but it also made a man of mediocre ability into a pretty good coach. Woody Hayes

Ohio already has an OC who, by the way, beat Kansas, has Ohio bowl eligible 8 years and has seen Ohio though to 82 wins since 2006 second most in the MAC over that period. I know allen, you think you could do better.

It bigger than me and you and our emotions. If Texas has a better offensive coordinator and can recruit and introduces a new pipeline, he may be a great pick up, Albin will be fine. See the players suit up to win and we should give them the best chance to win.


Sterlin Gilbert
Offensive Coordinator / Quarterbacks

Gilbert Inducted Into Lake View HS Hall of FameGet Acrobat Reader

A former Texas high school standout quarterback and coach, Sterlin Gilbert has helped lead some of college football’s most prolific offenses in recent years. In his four seasons as a collegiate coordinator, his offenses have averaged almost 500 total yards and nearly 38 points per game. He will now bring that explosive offense to Texas where he joined the staff in December 2015 as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach.

Gilbert spent this past season at Tulsa as co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks/receivers coach, helping the Golden Hurricane rank among the nation’s leaders the entire season for passing, scoring and total offense. Tulsa completed the 2015 campaign ranked 11th nationally in passing, 13th in total offense and 21st in scoring. Tulsa scored over 37 points per game, while racking up an average of 507 total yards and 333 yards passing en route to an appearance in the 2015 Independence Bowl against Virginia Tech.

The offense was led by American Athletic Conference first-team WR Keyarris Garrett, who finished with 1,588 receiving yards and 122.2 receiving yards per game. He also totaled 96 receptions and signed as a UDFA with the Carolina Panthers. WR Josh Atkinson finished the season with 1,071 receiving yards, while QB Dane Evans passed for 4,332 yards and 25 touchdowns.

Prior to his appointment at Tulsa, Gilbert was the co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for the 2014 season at Bowling Green. That year, the Falcons gained 432.9 total yards per game (41st NCAA), while averaging 173.0 yards on the ground and 259.9 yards passing. That production all came without the services of starting QB Matt Johnson who was injured would become the 2015 Mid-American Conference Offensive Player of the Year.

Gilbert mentored back-up QB James Knapke to a 3,000-yard passing season despite his only having 10 previous collegiate passing attempts. His 3,173 yards ranked seventh on the school single-season list at the time, while his 280 completions were sixth. Wide receiver Roger Lewis recorded 1,093 receiving yards and earned first-team All-MAC honors, while RBs Travis Green (949/12), Fred Coppet (764/6) and Andre Givens (479/8) combined for 2,192 yards and 26 TDs. BGSU finished the season with a victory over South Alabama in the 2014 Camellia Bowl.

During the 2012-13 seasons, Gilbert served as the offensive coordinator at Eastern Illinois, where in his second year he was named 2013 FootballScoop FCS Coordinator of the Year. The Panthers led the nation in total offense (589.5 ypg) and scoring (48.2 ppg), while ranking second with 372.4 passing yards, and 20th with 217.1 rushing yards per game, leading to a 12-2 record and an Ohio Valley Conference Championship.

Under the guidance of Gilbert, QB Jimmy Garoppolo was named the 2013 Walter Payton Award winner, the FCS equivalent of the Heisman Trophy, given to the nation's best player. Garoppolo led the nation and ranked second in FCS single-season history with 5,050 passing yards, while ranking second in the nation and fourth in FCS history with 53 passing TDs. He was also third in the country in passing efficiency (168.3) and was chosen OVC Offensive Player of the Year.

During his two seasons with Gilbert, Garoppolo passed for 8,873 yards and 84 TDs. He finished his career seventh in FCS history with 13,156 passing yards, and sixth with 118 passing TDs. He went on to become a second-round draft choice by the New England Patriots in the 2014 NFL Draft.

In addition to Garoppolo, five other players were named 2013 first-team All-OVC, representing each position group with running back, wide receiver, tight end and offensive line. Three more players were named to the second team.

Two-time consensus first-team All-American WR Erik Lora led the nation in receptions with 123, which tied for second in FCS history, only behind his own record of 136 in the previous season. He was also second in TD receptions with 19 (tied for sixth all-time in FCS), and third in receiving yards with 1,544 (16th all-time in FCS). He finished his career second in FCS history with 332 receptions, and 12th with 4,006 yards.

Fellow WR Adam Drake was just behind Lora with 85 receptions for 1,305 yards (fifth in the nation) and 13 TDs (eighth in the nation) and earned second-team All-OVC honors. Both went on to sign free agent contracts with NFL teams.

The running backs came up 12 yards short of a pair of 1,000-yard rushers, including first-teamer Shepard Little with 1,551 yards (seventh in the nation) and 15 TDs, and second-teamer Taylor Duncan with 988 yards and 10 TDs. Tight end Jeff LePak (51-723-8), OT Dominic Pagliara and OG Collin Seibert accounted for the other members of the OVC first team and were selected third-team All-America, while offensive linemen Nick Borre made the second team, and Jimmy Lowery was on the All-Newcomer Team.

In his first season at EIU, Gilbert directed a Panthers offense that ranked sixth in the nation in passing (334.9 ypg), seventh in total offense (470.9 ypg) and eighth in scoring (36.5 ppg). The offense set several school records at the time, including touchdown passes with 34. That year, Garoppolo was seventh in the nation in total offense (318.5 ypg), while Lora set the FCS record for receptions (136) and led the nation in receiving yards with (1,664/sixth all-time in FCS) en route to being named OVC Offensive Player of the Year. Seibert joined him on the all-conference first team, while RB Jake Walker rushed for 1,133 yards and 12 TDs and made the second team, along with TE Sam Hendricks and C Kevin Kapellas.

Gilbert enjoyed a successful career as a high school coach in Texas before moving to Eastern Illinois. In 2011, he was the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Temple High School, where the team advanced to the Texas state 5A playoffs. There he coached Zach Allen who is now a sophomore quarterback at TCU.

Prior to joining the staff at Temple, Gilbert was the head coach at his alma mater, San Angelo Lake View High School, for three seasons (2008-10). He rebuilt a program that had won only three games in three years prior to his arrival to a team that won the 2008 Bi-District Championship and the school’s first playoff game in 12 years. He was named the West Texas High School Coach of the Year in 2008.

Gilbert developed a name for himself as a prolific offensive coach at Abilene Cooper High School during the 2006 and 2007 seasons when he served as the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach. In 2006, Cooper was the state’s top passing offense in District 3-5A with 3,172 yards, while in 2007, he helped take the team to the state playoffs.

The first collegiate coaching experience of Gilbert’s career came as a graduate assistant under Art Briles at the University of Houston in 2005 when the Cougars earned a trip to the Fort Worth Bowl. Gilbert assisted with the quarterbacks and running backs. His first job was on the prep level as the quarterbacks and running backs coach at Springtown (Texas) High School from 2003-04.

A standout prep performer at San Angelo Lake View High School, Gilbert was a two-time All-State quarterback and was named District MVP in 1996. He was Big XII Region All-America and All-West Texas 4A MVP.

Gilbert went on to start at quarterback for three seasons at Angelo State University, where he led the Rams to back-to-back Lone Star Conference South Division championships. A two-time team captain, Gilbert concluded his career in fourth place all-time in total offense and was named Honorable Mention All-Lone Star Conference in 2000 and 2001. He earned his Bachelor's degree in kinesiology with a minor in history from Angelo State in 2002.

Nice. Yet Saturday with all of Texas football at his disposal he lost to Kansas. You might be fine with that, but, in Texas that wipes away all of the above. Likely Texas fans would swap for Albin right now.

Charlie Strong will likely have multiple opportunities when he decides to coach again. Coordinator jobs in the P-5 are way over $1,000,000 now and rapidly escalating. Money is not everything, but it seems unlikely that Charlie would move down to a G-5 job. But nobody knows much in these crazy college football days. Look at Pelini who had a lot of baggage that Stong doesn't have, but his W-L record was pretty good.

Prior to joining the staff at Temple, Gilbert was the head coach at his alma mater, San Angelo Lake View High School, for three seasons (2008-10). He rebuilt a program that had won only three games in three years prior to his arrival to a team that won the 2008 Bi-District Championship and the school’s first playoff game in 12 years. He was named the West Texas High School Coach of the Year in 2008.

Gilbert developed a name for himself as a prolific offensive coach at Abilene Cooper High School during the 2006 and 2007 seasons when he served as the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach. In 2006, Cooper was the state’s top passing offense in District 3-5A with 3,172 yards, while in 2007, he helped take the team to the state playoffs.

The first collegiate coaching experience of Gilbert’s career came as a graduate assistant under Art Briles at the University of Houston in 2005 when the Cougars earned a trip to the Fort Worth Bowl. Gilbert assisted with the quarterbacks and running backs. His first job was on the prep level as the quarterbacks and running backs coach at Springtown (Texas) High School from 2003-04.

A standout prep performer at San Angelo Lake View High School, Gilbert was a two-time All-State quarterback and was named District MVP in 1996. He was Big XII Region All-America and All-West Texas 4A MVP.

Gilbert went on to start at quarterback for three seasons at Angelo State University, where he led the Rams to back-to-back Lone Star Conference South Division championships. A two-time team captain, Gilbert concluded his career in fourth place all-time in total offense and was named Honorable Mention All-Lone Star Conference in 2000 and 2001. He earned his Bachelor's degree in kinesiology with a minor in history from Angelo State in 2002.


Nice. Yet Saturday with all of Texas football at his disposal he lost to Kansas. You might be fine with that, but, in Texas that wipes away all of the above. Likely Texas fans would swap for Albin right now.


They had 6 turnovers or it would have been a route. They beat two top 25 teams. He has coached pro QB's like Garrapolo. Tulsa offense was sensational last year. He can coach some offense.

Nobody despises to lose more than I do. That's got me into trouble over the years, but it also made a man of mediocre ability into a pretty good coach. Woody Hayes

Charlie Strong will likely have multiple opportunities when he decides to coach again. Coordinator jobs in the P-5 are way over $1,000,000 now and rapidly escalating. Money is not everything, but it seems unlikely that Charlie would move down to a G-5 job. But nobody knows much in these crazy college football days. Look at Pelini who had a lot of baggage that Stong doesn't have, but his W-L record was pretty good.


You are right, he made 850K, but if he loses his job and can't find a better job, he may come believing he could secede Solich in the future. We will have to cough up at least 400k.

Ohio already has an OC who, by the way, beat Kansas, has Ohio bowl eligible 8 years and has seen Ohio though to 82 wins since 2006 second most in the MAC over that period. I know allen, you think you could do better.


But it hasn't been good enough. 12 years and no conference titles and never a season with less than 4 losses. If Ohio's going to break though nationally the way Boise State has its going to need to do better. I've got the same complaint with basketball and the 22-15 seasons. We need to be a regular in the NCAAs to achieve notoriety as a real basketball school.

I have no interest in Strong. A lot of his success is attributable to Louisville winning games when the AAC was in transition. I'd go after an OC from a high scoring offense. What about WMU's Offensive Coordinator? Does he know Fleck's recruiting secrets? Ohio needs to improve offensively to take the next step competitively. Landing Solich was a unique situation because he wasn't making that much at the time at Nebraska ($550,000) so it was possible to scoop him up since making a coaching salary was yet important. Bowden is the same way coaching Auburn before the cash really started to flow so is still in the game.

I saw a report that he'd be owed $10M, which would be reduced if he took another coaching job. Why would he accept a $400K job and lose out on a chunk of $10M payout for doing nothing?

Sterlin Gilbert
Offensive Coordinator / Quarterbacks

Gilbert Inducted Into Lake View HS Hall of FameGet Acrobat Reader

A former Texas high school standout quarterback and coach, Sterlin Gilbert has helped lead some of college football’s most prolific offenses in recent years. In his four seasons as a collegiate coordinator, his offenses have averaged almost 500 total yards and nearly 38 points per game. He will now bring that explosive offense to Texas where he joined the staff in December 2015 as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach.

Gilbert spent this past season at Tulsa as co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks/receivers coach, helping the Golden Hurricane rank among the nation’s leaders the entire season for passing, scoring and total offense. Tulsa completed the 2015 campaign ranked 11th nationally in passing, 13th in total offense and 21st in scoring. Tulsa scored over 37 points per game, while racking up an average of 507 total yards and 333 yards passing en route to an appearance in the 2015 Independence Bowl against Virginia Tech.

The offense was led by American Athletic Conference first-team WR Keyarris Garrett, who finished with 1,588 receiving yards and 122.2 receiving yards per game. He also totaled 96 receptions and signed as a UDFA with the Carolina Panthers. WR Josh Atkinson finished the season with 1,071 receiving yards, while QB Dane Evans passed for 4,332 yards and 25 touchdowns.

Prior to his appointment at Tulsa, Gilbert was the co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for the 2014 season at Bowling Green. That year, the Falcons gained 432.9 total yards per game (41st NCAA), while averaging 173.0 yards on the ground and 259.9 yards passing. That production all came without the services of starting QB Matt Johnson who was injured would become the 2015 Mid-American Conference Offensive Player of the Year.

Gilbert mentored back-up QB James Knapke to a 3,000-yard passing season despite his only having 10 previous collegiate passing attempts. His 3,173 yards ranked seventh on the school single-season list at the time, while his 280 completions were sixth. Wide receiver Roger Lewis recorded 1,093 receiving yards and earned first-team All-MAC honors, while RBs Travis Green (949/12), Fred Coppet (764/6) and Andre Givens (479/8) combined for 2,192 yards and 26 TDs. BGSU finished the season with a victory over South Alabama in the 2014 Camellia Bowl.

During the 2012-13 seasons, Gilbert served as the offensive coordinator at Eastern Illinois, where in his second year he was named 2013 FootballScoop FCS Coordinator of the Year. The Panthers led the nation in total offense (589.5 ypg) and scoring (48.2 ppg), while ranking second with 372.4 passing yards, and 20th with 217.1 rushing yards per game, leading to a 12-2 record and an Ohio Valley Conference Championship.

Under the guidance of Gilbert, QB Jimmy Garoppolo was named the 2013 Walter Payton Award winner, the FCS equivalent of the Heisman Trophy, given to the nation's best player. Garoppolo led the nation and ranked second in FCS single-season history with 5,050 passing yards, while ranking second in the nation and fourth in FCS history with 53 passing TDs. He was also third in the country in passing efficiency (168.3) and was chosen OVC Offensive Player of the Year.

During his two seasons with Gilbert, Garoppolo passed for 8,873 yards and 84 TDs. He finished his career seventh in FCS history with 13,156 passing yards, and sixth with 118 passing TDs. He went on to become a second-round draft choice by the New England Patriots in the 2014 NFL Draft.

In addition to Garoppolo, five other players were named 2013 first-team All-OVC, representing each position group with running back, wide receiver, tight end and offensive line. Three more players were named to the second team.

Two-time consensus first-team All-American WR Erik Lora led the nation in receptions with 123, which tied for second in FCS history, only behind his own record of 136 in the previous season. He was also second in TD receptions with 19 (tied for sixth all-time in FCS), and third in receiving yards with 1,544 (16th all-time in FCS). He finished his career second in FCS history with 332 receptions, and 12th with 4,006 yards.

Fellow WR Adam Drake was just behind Lora with 85 receptions for 1,305 yards (fifth in the nation) and 13 TDs (eighth in the nation) and earned second-team All-OVC honors. Both went on to sign free agent contracts with NFL teams.

The running backs came up 12 yards short of a pair of 1,000-yard rushers, including first-teamer Shepard Little with 1,551 yards (seventh in the nation) and 15 TDs, and second-teamer Taylor Duncan with 988 yards and 10 TDs. Tight end Jeff LePak (51-723-8), OT Dominic Pagliara and OG Collin Seibert accounted for the other members of the OVC first team and were selected third-team All-America, while offensive linemen Nick Borre made the second team, and Jimmy Lowery was on the All-Newcomer Team.

In his first season at EIU, Gilbert directed a Panthers offense that ranked sixth in the nation in passing (334.9 ypg), seventh in total offense (470.9 ypg) and eighth in scoring (36.5 ppg). The offense set several school records at the time, including touchdown passes with 34. That year, Garoppolo was seventh in the nation in total offense (318.5 ypg), while Lora set the FCS record for receptions (136) and led the nation in receiving yards with (1,664/sixth all-time in FCS) en route to being named OVC Offensive Player of the Year. Seibert joined him on the all-conference first team, while RB Jake Walker rushed for 1,133 yards and 12 TDs and made the second team, along with TE Sam Hendricks and C Kevin Kapellas.

Gilbert enjoyed a successful career as a high school coach in Texas before moving to Eastern Illinois. In 2011, he was the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Temple High School, where the team advanced to the Texas state 5A playoffs. There he coached Zach Allen who is now a sophomore quarterback at TCU.

Yes. You're right. Texas would swap for Albin who was part of great games like losing to Texas State. And getting pummeled by teams like Kent St, Buffalo & Ball State in recent years.

Good grief. You're off the reservation man.

Texas would still owe him the difference between his new salary and his buyout. If he wants to coach, there is no financial risk for him. He's set for life.

B44. Hold your focus please. We are discussing the OCs here. Vs Texas State Albin's play calling scored 54, racked up 630 yards averaging 6.3 per play over 97 plays. Texas State was not on Albin. Texas vs Kansas was overtime too but Texas could only put up 21 on Kansas. Albin hung 37 on Kansas.

Garoppolo led the nation and ranked second in FCS single-season history with 5,050 passing yards, while ranking second in the nation and fourth in FCS history with 53 passing TDs. He was also third in the country in passing efficiency (168.3) and was chosen OVC Offensive Player of the Year.

During his two seasons with Gilbert, Garoppolo passed for 8,873 yards and 84 TDs. He finished his career seventh in FCS history with 13,156 passing yards, and sixth with 118 passing TDs. He went on to become a second-round draft choice by the New England Patriots in the 2014 NFL Draft.

In addition to Garoppolo, five other players were named 2013 first-team All-OVC, representing each position group with running back, wide receiver, tight end and offensive line. Three more players were named to the second team.

Two-time consensus first-team All-American WR Erik Lora led the nation in receptions with 123, which tied for second in FCS history, only behind his own record of 136 in the previous season. He was also second in TD receptions with 19 (tied for sixth all-time in FCS), and third in receiving yards with 1,544 (16th all-time in FCS). He finished his career second in FCS history with 332 receptions, and 12th with 4,006 yards.

Fellow WR Adam Drake was just behind Lora with 85 receptions for 1,305 yards (fifth in the nation) and 13 TDs (eighth in the nation) and earned second-team All-OVC honors. Both went on to sign free agent contracts with NFL teams.

The running backs came up 12 yards short of a pair of 1,000-yard rushers, including first-teamer Shepard Little with 1,551 yards (seventh in the nation) and 15 TDs, and second-teamer Taylor Duncan with 988 yards and 10 TDs. Tight end Jeff LePak (51-723-8), OT Dominic Pagliara and OG Collin Seibert accounted for the other members of the OVC first team and were selected third-team All-America, while offensive linemen Nick Borre made the second team, and Jimmy Lowery was on the All-Newcomer Team.

In his first season at EIU, Gilbert directed a Panthers offense that ranked sixth in the nation in passing (334.9 ypg), seventh in total offense (470.9 ypg) and eighth in scoring (36.5 ppg). The offense set several school records at the time, including touchdown passes with 34. That year, Garoppolo was seventh in the nation in total offense (318.5 ypg), while Lora set the FCS record for receptions (136) and led the nation in receiving yards with (1,664/sixth all-time in FCS) en route to being named OVC Offensive Player of the Year. Seibert joined him on the all-conference first team, while RB Jake Walker rushed for 1,133 yards and 12 TDs and made the second team, along with TE Sam Hendricks and C Kevin Kapellas.

Gilbert enjoyed a successful career as a high school coach in Texas before moving to Eastern Illinois. In 2011, he was the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Temple High School, where the team advanced to the Texas state 5A playoffs. There he coached Zach Allen who is now a sophomore quarterback at TCU.

Prior to joining the staff at Temple, Gilbert was the head coach at his alma mater, San Angelo Lake View High School, for three seasons (2008-10). He rebuilt a program that had won only three games in three years prior to his arrival to a team that won the 2008 Bi-District Championship and the school’s first playoff game in 12 years. He was named the West Texas High School Coach of the Year in 2008.

Gilbert developed a name for himself as a prolific offensive coach at Abilene Cooper High School during the 2006 and 2007 seasons when he served as the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach. In 2006, Cooper was the state’s top passing offense in District 3-5A with 3,172 yards, while in 2007, he helped take the team to the state playoffs.

The first collegiate coaching experience of Gilbert’s career came as a graduate assistant under Art Briles at the University of Houston in 2005 when the Cougars earned a trip to the Fort Worth Bowl. Gilbert assisted with the quarterbacks and running backs. His first job was on the prep level as the quarterbacks and running backs coach at Springtown (Texas) High School from 2003-04.

A standout prep performer at San Angelo Lake View High School, Gilbert was a two-time All-State quarterback and was named District MVP in 1996. He was Big XII Region All-America and All-West Texas 4A MVP.

Gilbert went on to start at quarterback for three seasons at Angelo State University, where he led the Rams to back-to-back Lone Star Conference South Division championships. A two-time team captain, Gilbert concluded his career in fourth place all-time in total offense and was named Honorable Mention All-Lone Star Conference in 2000 and 2001. He earned his Bachelor's degree in kinesiology with a minor in history from Angelo State in 2002.


Nice. Yet Saturday with all of Texas football at his disposal he lost to Kansas. You might be fine with that, but, in Texas that wipes away all of the above. Likely Texas fans would swap for Albin right now.



Yes. You're right. Texas would swap for Albin who was part of great games like losing to Texas State. And getting pummeled by teams like Kent St, Buffalo & Ball State in recent years.

Good grief. You're off the reservation man.




Good one.





By the way, that's the reservation upon which Everyone Gets A Trophy For Everything.

Sterlin Gilbert
Offensive Coordinator / Quarterbacks

Gilbert Inducted Into Lake View HS Hall of FameGet Acrobat Reader

A former Texas high school standout quarterback and coach, Sterlin Gilbert has helped lead some of college football’s most prolific offenses in recent years. In his four seasons as a collegiate coordinator, his offenses have averaged almost 500 total yards and nearly 38 points per game. He will now bring that explosive offense to Texas where he joined the staff in December 2015 as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach.

Gilbert spent this past season at Tulsa as co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks/receivers coach, helping the Golden Hurricane rank among the nation’s leaders the entire season for passing, scoring and total offense. Tulsa completed the 2015 campaign ranked 11th nationally in passing, 13th in total offense and 21st in scoring. Tulsa scored over 37 points per game, while racking up an average of 507 total yards and 333 yards passing en route to an appearance in the 2015 Independence Bowl against Virginia Tech.

The offense was led by American Athletic Conference first-team WR Keyarris Garrett, who finished with 1,588 receiving yards and 122.2 receiving yards per game. He also totaled 96 receptions and signed as a UDFA with the Carolina Panthers. WR Josh Atkinson finished the season with 1,071 receiving yards, while QB Dane Evans passed for 4,332 yards and 25 touchdowns.

Prior to his appointment at Tulsa, Gilbert was the co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for the 2014 season at Bowling Green. That year, the Falcons gained 432.9 total yards per game (41st NCAA), while averaging 173.0 yards on the ground and 259.9 yards passing. That production all came without the services of starting QB Matt Johnson who was injured would become the 2015 Mid-American Conference Offensive Player of the Year.

Gilbert mentored back-up QB James Knapke to a 3,000-yard passing season despite his only having 10 previous collegiate passing attempts. His 3,173 yards ranked seventh on the school single-season list at the time, while his 280 completions were sixth. Wide receiver Roger Lewis recorded 1,093 receiving yards and earned first-team All-MAC honors, while RBs Travis Green (949/12), Fred Coppet (764/6) and Andre Givens (479/8) combined for 2,192 yards and 26 TDs. BGSU finished the season with a victory over South Alabama in the 2014 Camellia Bowl.

During the 2012-13 seasons, Gilbert served as the offensive coordinator at Eastern Illinois, where in his second year he was named 2013 FootballScoop FCS Coordinator of the Year. The Panthers led the nation in total offense (589.5 ypg) and scoring (48.2 ppg), while ranking second with 372.4 passing yards, and 20th with 217.1 rushing yards per game, leading to a 12-2 record and an Ohio Valley Conference Championship.

Sure Monroe. Except that, we are discussing the OCs here. Vs Texas State Albin's play calling scored 54, racked up 630 yards averaging 6.3 per play over 97 plays. Texas State was not on Albin. Texas vs Kansas was overtime too but Texas could only put up 21 on Kansas. Albin hung 37 on Kansas. Yes, having lived three years an hour from Austin and enjoying a Texas vs Penn State game there I am sure Texas fans would rate Albin above their guy right now. Not saying he would be their hire, but, you have no idea how they are feeling about losing to Kansas.

You can't be serious, they have beat top 25 teams. Their offense has improved while our offense has declined. They have an offensive coordinator that led a top ten offense in the nation last year. Sure they had 6 turnovers and missed field goal last week or they would have scored 40. Stop lying to yourself, if they like Albin like you think they do, they would have hired him away from Ohio. Gilbert was the offensive coordinator at Bowling green when they used to pummel us.

Texas would still owe him the difference between his new salary and his buyout. If he wants to coach, there is no financial risk for him. He's set for life.



Yes, that's exactly what happened with Frank. For his first two years at OHIO (and part of the third year, I think), Frank made about $1.7 million, with Nebraska paying him the difference between his OHIO salary and what they owed him.

Are we seriously comparing Texas and Ohio's offensive coordinators on this website?

Charlie Strong said it best in his press conference this morning: guys are playing tight because they're uncertain of their futures.

It has nothing to do with Ohio's OC being better than Texas' OC. That's ludicrous to say so. Sure, Ohio beat Kansas this year. So has Memphis, Texas Tech, TCU, Baylor, Oklahoma State, Oklahoma, West Virginia and Iowa State. Big deal. Play Texas vs. Kansas 100 times and they win probably 90+/100 times. Upsets happen in college football, especially when the players aren't playing like they normally should which is loose and relaxed.

I would take Charlie Strong in Athens in a heartbeat. He's also playing like 9 freshmen and sophomores on his defense. There's a reason they're 5-6. They are yoooouunnnggg.

Now watch, Texas cans him and hires Tom Herman. He'll win 11 games year 1 or 2 because the talent is so rich and experienced by that point. I think people underestimate how bad the Texas program was when Strong took over. He came in and blew that thing up. Remember how many guys he kicked off the team who were cancers to the program?

I've got some Cincinnati friends who are thinking if Charlie is available that Tuberville might be gone and they make a really hard push for Strong.

No....WE are not seriously making that comparison. Just one person is. The almighty Bcat2.

He is the one trying to say that Albin is superior.

Yes...let's all huddle around the xmas tree and tell the great stories of how Timmy Albin's juggernaut offense racked up 3 points in the first half vs. powerhouse Texas State.

And all those great games vs. Akron, WMU and Buffalo in 2015 when we dominated offensively scoring less than 17 pts in each game.

Or the 6 games in 2014 when we failed to score more than 17 points.

Obviously Albin's genius as an OC has been on display for years at Ohio.

You can tell by Ohio's dominating 22-17 record vs. the MAC in the last five years.

Bcat2, can we trade you to the Texas message board for some beef brisket and a cold six-pack of Lone Star?
