I want to preface this by saying that I am by no means an insider, this is just my personal opinion…
I think that Sat is essentially gone and the official announcement has not been made yet. With that being said, I think the reason why it has not been officially announced is that the person that Beamer wants to hire still has games to play. To me, that guy would be Barry Lunney Jr at UTSA.
I know the big name right now for many is Zach Kittley at WKU and while I would personally not be opposed to that hire, I think that doesn’t fit what Beamer likes. Beamer has directly stated on multiple occasions he likes to have the ability to line up and run the ball and make the other team stop your physicality which wouldn’t fit the bill under the air raid.
Lunney’s system fits the bill of what Shane would want in my opinion with a physical style of offense that is also balanced. He runs a power spread scheme that is reminiscent of Oklahoma. The UTSA offense is up to 30th in the nation right now after being close to the bottom before Lunney arrived. He is also a good recruiter.
Again, I have no inside info and this is just what I’ve pieced together from what I’ve seen and heard on the boards.
