Would it be a good idea to bring Ault and his knowledge of the Pistol in as a coach this off season?

Does he want to leave Nevada and be the QB coach and learn the rest of the ropes from Jim and Greg? That would be something. I haven't followed his offense much at Nevada. I don't know what kind of total Xs and Os package he has. It is an intriguing thought as a QB/OC coach for the future. But I can't take it further than that.

That's what I was thinking. He actually ran a pro set offense until Kaep came in.

I wonder what Tom Rathman's long-term plan is and if he would be evaluated high by Harbaugh for his ability to become an OC.

He's retired now. He no longer works at Nevada ...

Wouldnt be a bad idea to bring him in as a consultant in the off-season. Infact I think its a good idea.

I still believe (despite all the coaching slots filled) a team like the Raiders could pull a 'Dolphins' type move and call Roman up after the Superbowl to see if he'd be legitimately interested. -Doubt we go full pistol though, can't go full-college retard in the NFL, despite your QB's ability to execute it.

Topic title should be re-worded. Seems to imply that the 49ers are thinking about bringing him in.

Sorry about that.

Benefit 1 - He could further develop the system in our organization making adjustments and tweeks along the way.

Benefit 2 - We'd be taking him off the market from any teams that may want to implement the system for themselves,
