I heard something on ESPN that Weis's son is now in college and interested in getting his foot in the coaching door? Daddy becomes a coach where son is going to school, sounds like a door opening opportunity.

If so, one has to wonder how much that change can be attributed to Weis.

Todd Haley was his own offensive coordinator last season. This year it was Weis's gig calling plays and running the show. He gets an awful lot of the credit as things have been nearly night and day from where they were on that side of the ball since Charlie came on this year.

that is correct

Asked to describe his working relationship with Haley, Weis said, “He’s the head coach and I’m the offensive coordinator. We’ve known each other forever. Todd and I grew up under the same tree. We understand the way of doing business. It’s kind of interesting for me to reflect on how we’ve grown in the last decade or so since we’ve worked together.

“When you’re the boss, you’re the boss. When you’re an assistant, you’re an assistant. He’s definitely the boss and I’m definitely the offensive coordinator. I think we had a very good understanding of what our roles were without any reservation.’’

Weis indicated family matters played a large role in his decision. Weis is friends new Florida head coach Will Muschamp.

Weis’ son Charlie will soon graduate from St. Pius X High School in Kansas City and will attend Florida, where he will be an assistant coach for the Gators while attending school.

(student manager would be a more accurate description, I'm guessing slightly similar to when Brian Schottenheimer dressed as a QB and held a clipboard for 4 years when Spurrier was here)
I can't believe no one has picked up on my Kirby Smart post.

He's certainly not poor I would think. If he wants to be closer to his family, then good for him.

Good for the kid for wanting to follow in his dad's footsteps, and he's probably doing it right by trying to be in the same place as pops. Charlie is certainly making a sacrifice to help his son, and for that I can't get too pissed.

no Kirby Smart, we are getting Dan Quinn from the Seattle Seahawks as D.C.

some funny stuff here in the PSU-UF recap http://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/2011/uncensored-play-by-play-of-the-2011-outback-bowl/

I’m being told the hiring went something like this:
Will Muschamp: “I know this is a long shot, I mean you are getting ready for the NFL playoffs and we’re getting ready for the Outback Bowl, so….
Charlie Weis: “Let me stop you right there. Did you say Outback Bowl? That’s the place with the Bloomin’ Onion right? I’m your man. Outback Bowl! That sounds delicious.”

Perfect weather in Tampa today. 72 and cloudless. Sunburn likely will be factor for fair skinned Penn State late in the game.

Florida goes 3 and out, which is a vast improvement from the last drive.

Joe Pa says the pirate ship in Tampa’s stadium reminds him of the boat he took to “The New World.”

Meyer moves back in the Death Pool lead after Chas Henry’s 14 yard punt. Meyer’s look to Henry reads, “Honestly, Chas, do you want my heart explode?”

Joe Pa sighting. He’s laying into that giant red headed coach, the poor bastard. They’re people, just like you and me, Joe!

Florida can have him and his "schematic advantage". We've already seen how it works at the college level.

This is hilarious stuff.

Florida’s offensive coordinator Steve Addazio was recently named the new head coach at Temple. After the season he had I’m shocked he’s getting that opportunity. When I heard Addazio was being considered for the Temple job I assumed it meant he was going to be a janitor at a synagogue.

Florida does what it does best, the old Mike Pouncey shotgun snap misfire for an 18 yard loss. With erratic throws like that Pouncey might work himself into Florida’s QB rotation.

ABC shows an interview of Paterno saying he hopes to come back next season. Tirico comes back and says, &#8220aterno is sharp as ever. He’s telling stories like he did 5-8 years ago.” Is that even a compliment?

Tim Tebow’s signature play was a QB run on 3rd and short. Brantley’s signature is a 3 and out, capped off with a 2 yard completion on 3rd and 10.

Florida Frankie Hammonds bobbles Alex Butterworth’s punt, causing Tirico to quip, “Hammonds gets butterfingers on Butterworth’s punt.” Gruden simply responds, “Fag.”

Thanks Heretic, I meant to include the Pouncey to QB line.
