Monken jumps back to the NFL after winning consecutive nattys at UGA.
A job is a job (especially an NFL job) but with Lamar’s contract situation, would you want to be the Ravens OC?

Before NIL/Portal, being the OC @UGA was better than any NFL OC job. But nowadays……for a guy Monkens age……I’d get outta college as fast as I could.

There was a brief moment, 2 years ago, I thought oSu would have Monken and Knowles. Wonder how close that came to happening and how hard Weiburg pursued.

Doesn’t say what his pay will be at Baltimore ? Anyone see how much he’s getting ?

If they has it would have been short lived don’t you think ? Two years at the most ?

Who cares? They’d give you the best chance of winning Big 12 titles.
Do you really think Monken could take 4 years of bad habits out of Sanders enough to win a championship ? Doubtful to me plus the late season slump

I do like how they said how monkey led us. Had nothing to do with the best offensive players osu has ever had.
Then he hides behind the number 1 defense. Just like Knowless takes 6 year guys to make a good defense

He wouldn’t have had 4 years of bad habits if he was hired when Dunn was.
Monken would never been here for 4 years, not in a million years

Yea best tandem us or any other school may have had with Weeden and Blackmon. They couldn’t stop those two along with Coop and another or two….
Knowles got really lucky having 5-6th yesr players Grown asx men against boys

That doesn’t have to do with anything I’ve said.
Relatively it does. Monken was here two years, second one not nearly as the firstq

The man is moving on the up n’ up. I got a feeling if he has a couple of successful seasons he’ll end up being a head coach making big dollars. Brilliant offensive mind he has. I wonder if Georgia suffers a little bit with him gone because he really got the offense going. In my humble opinion only I think being a OC and OL coach is the toughest positions to coach.
I think he would had made him better and game planned him better. Also I think Stetson doesn’t have the success without monken. Some argue the talent around Stetson made him play better. Me personally I wouldn’t take Bennett before the 5th round in the draft. Great Coaches can make great players. And there’s a saying too Great Players make Great Coaches. I believe Monken will have above average success to border line great. Will be interesting to see what he does with the QB. My NFL team sucks I’d love to have Lamar and Todd Monken.
