Wow, this certainly turns the prevailing narrative from a certain few on this board on its head.... i.e. Willie Fritz average opportunistic coach, and Slade Nagle waste of space. I'll take Willie Fritz the Greatest HOF coach at Tulane, and Slade Nagle offensive dominator of Lincoln Riley for $1000 Alex.

Some OC's put the game plan into place while the HC calls the plays on game day. (see Sean Payton and Carmichael). Slade seemed to have a very good pulse on when to pull the trigger on deep passing plays,

I guess if your offense is as pathetic as theirs was this season, you'll throw stupid money on the table. Can't blame someone like Svoboda for taking it.

I have heard that this goes back to Spring practice where Nagle and Svoboda were each given a chance to run "their" offense to compare and Nagle's was more effective. It has been his scheme all year.

So let me toss this question out. Nagle has been with Fritz for 7 years. Before that, he's been a QB coach, a RB coach, and an OC. He's a Louisiana native, and recruits LA well. If Fritz were to move on after 2023, would Nagle be in the mix for HC, assuming we do a full search? He may not have the resume of others in HC experience, but there are some factors that would favor him as well. Don't have a feel one way or the other, just wondering what others would think. Obviously it would be based on another excellent season and offensive output.

Kinda makes you wonder what Svoboda was doing then....?anEngineer wrote: ↑Sat Jan 07, 2023 8:33 am I have heard that this goes back to Spring practice where Nagle and Svoboda were each given a chance to run "their" offense to compare and Nagle's was more effective. It has been his scheme all year.
If next year is similar to this year, wouldn't mind Nagle or Hampton at HCRobertM320 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 07, 2023 8:51 am So let me toss this question out. Nagle has been with Fritz for 7 years.

That came from a story from someone who had never covered Tulane football. It is total BS. The offense was bad in the spring game. Fritz hated the format as the teams were drafted that week. So you believe in a couple of days someone instituted a completely different offense? Didn't happen. There was no difference in performance either.anEngineer wrote: ↑Sat Jan 07, 2023 8:33 am I have heard that this goes back to Spring practice where Nagle and Svoboda were each given a chance to run "their" offense to compare and Nagle's was more effective.

Absolutely not . We can and must do better. He has stunk as a TE's coach. Tyrick James deserved so much better.RobertM320 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 07, 2023 8:51 am So let me toss this question out.

Not sure of the reports on Boda. I don't think it's a good change. We'll know at this time next season. Pratt absolutely loves Boda. He'll be on OC 4. I think he stays but it gives him reason to reconsider and look elsewhere.

Hopefully this puts it to rest. Slade Nagle himself says that he was pretty much the main playcaller the entire season. Time to let the Svoboda narrative die away.

Everything... absolutely everything points to this being an accurate statement and situation. Witnesses said it happened and the aftermath strongly suggests that it happened. What is your problem? I don't even understand what you're suggesting as an alternative explanation.
