Buy Bulldogs TicketsSources tell me that UGA offensive coordinator/QBs coach and former Bucs and Browns offensive coordinator Todd Monken will interview next week for the Bucs’ offensive coordinator position.

“At some point in my career I thought I knew exactly what I wanted next year, in five years, in 10 years, really what I wanted. I don’t know if it’s just getting old or the appreciation for the job you have, but I don’t control opportunities that come my way,” Monken said. “I would never say never to anything. I would never say no to anything, but I love where I’m at because I believe we’re going to win and I believe in the head coach. So those are all huge factors in where you decide to stay as a coach.”
Here’s how UGA Twitter is reacting to the news:

Look unless we give Todd Monken an even bigger rise which would be crazy considering what he's already making he's gone. Monken didn't accept the interview for nothing and the Bucs clearly want him.

Personally, if I were Monken, I would stay at Georgia and win like 6 more titles

I need for Todd Monken to come out and say that his plan is to never leave Athens and to die a Dawg. I really don’t feel like that’s too much to ask. That’s a fair request right?

If Monken goes
Mike Bobo is not the move

If he leaves does that mean that Mike Bobo takes for him

Paging Mike Bobo…
— Dawgstrodamus (@bigdawgstatus37) January 27, 2023
The last person I want to call my offense in today's College Footbsll is Mike Bobo.
He hasn't one time shown he's anywhere close to the Todd Monkens or Joe Bradys of the world.
