Brady Ackerman takes assistant job at Jackson State

What is Under 30K, Alex? Be that as it may, if it is what he wants then good for him. Perhaps they throw in a discount at the local all-u-can-eat buffet!

On FireFoley's comment about Hal Mumme's offense; go read the 247 article on Ackerman leaving. The Air Raid offense is being run by about 10 D1 programs right now, and Hal Mumme is considered the Godfather of it. WVU uses it, Oklahoma uses it (see below):

Florida Gators Football: Ackerman heading back to what he loves

“I’m excited to get back with Hal and run the most revolutionary offense in college football, Oklahoma, Washington State, SMU , West Virginia and Ole Miss are just a few offenses dominating CFB (that run the Air Raid),” Ackerman said.

Holgerson is clearly off the Mumme tree but he runs a little more downfield stuff now, not a traditional Mumme dink and dunk. I suspect he jist adopted a bunch of the Rich Rodriguez/Tommy Bowden power spread when he went to WVU.

Whe Mumme was at Kintuck, I used to laugh at them completing 2 passes amd being in 3rd and nine.

This is interesting....for Brady's situation. He apparently took the job at Jackson State due to his relationship w/ Hal Mumme:

Jackson State offensive coordinator Hal Mumme resigns

Jackson State offensive coordinator Hal Mumme resigns


A source close to Jackson State football told the Clarion-Ledger that offensive coordinator Hal Mummestepped down Wednesday.

"I would like to thank Hal Mumme for his contributions to the Jackson State football program," head coach Tony Hughes said in a press release. "We wish Hal nothing but success going forward."

Receivers coach Derrick McCall will serve as interim offensive coordinator. A former JSU quarterback, McCall has been on the JSU coaching staff for 8 years and served as OC in the 2012-2013 season, when his spread offense averaged more than 400 yards a game.

"Derrick McCall is an experienced play-caller," Hughes said. "He has a great offensive mind and I'm excited to see our offense continue to grow under his guidance."

Before accepting the position at JSU last December, Mumme served as the head coach at Belhaven, where he led the team to 2-8 records in each of the last three seasons.

Hailed as an air raid specialist, Mumme's offense at Belhaven averaged 55.8 pass attempts per contest and rolled up 445.3 yards of total offense a game.

Under Mumme, Jackson State's (1- 2, 0-1 SWAC) offense has not scored 20 points in a game this season.

Hal Mumme could not be immediately reached for comment.

Well it looks like Ackerman won't be coming back to the sideline. No problem, though, Steve Babik is just about to get out of jail and will be available soon.

Sometimes its just not about the money. He will be happier there.

I think that's exactly why Brady moved on to coaching. I'm sure he aspires to move up from Jackson State. Curious if he lands a better job next season.
