Fontenot is the main one linked right now.

I’m more interested in the coordinators than Urban at the moment.

Rightfully so. From what I read and hear of his coaching style, the coordinators will have the biggest job and impact on the team.

That makes me extremely happy. He was one of my top 3 candidates. Now, I'm feeling pretty good.

I thought the same thing until another possibility arose; it could be the best hire and then abruptly become the worst hire when the Jags show up to play one Sunday and Meyer is no where to be found. Then we find out he's in the hospital with a bad migraine from the stress of bailing one of his staff out of jail after beating his wife.

I think this is a highly plausible scenario.

I think it's gonna be hard to judge his coordinators until we see them. I bet they are all from the college ranks.

The number of coaches with no prior NFL experience moving from College to the NFL doesn't inspire much confidence. Here's hoping we got Jimmy Johnson and not Steve Spurrier or Chip Kelly.

Is he networked enough to find coordinators from the pro ranks? Honest question.

Or Pete Carroll and not Nick Saban.

Dominique Foxworth said it best this morning.

The amount of coaches that actually succeed (no matter where they come from) is extremely low. Whether it’s from being an OC or college coach, they all have a slim chance to be great.

This is Urb's big chance to one-up Nick Saban.

To be fair, the last two, Kingsbury and Rhule, look solid so far. We'll see.

I'm more worried about GM than Meyer as HC right now. Coordinators will make or break Meyer

Maybe Tebow gets another opportunity to be a wildcat QB, fullback and 4th string QB

Which Pete Carroll though?  Jets/New England Pete Carrol or Seattle Pete Carrol

With this news I find myself with the same feeling as when they hired Foles. I don't like it. To be honest about it though it's probably driven mostly by the Gator Hater that resides within me then any knowledge of how he can coach. Does it really take a top notch coach to win championships at the college level when you are playing the top recruits in the nation generally?

Pete had NFL experience.
Nick did not.

Johnson is the only coach who got an NFL head coaching job with no NFL experience and had any measure of success.

And that was a long time ago.  Saban and Spurrier are more recent.
My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.

If Lawrence does a jump pass at the goal line I'm going to run into my bedroom and cry my eyes out.

That makes me feel better.  It’ll be interesting to find out what his staff will look like.
