Coaching hires (at other schools)

[williston_gator]

Total BS that we couldn't make this happen. Mac/Foley/Stricklin are total b!tches. You lose Locksley. Keep Nuss and Bammer loses their number two recruiter to ASU? This is why we suck out loud. Mac is incompetent. Foley is watching women's lacrosse and Stricklin is Foley's puppet.

I look forward to another triple digit offense and Mac getting guillotined.

South Florida: Scott Spurrier’s title at USF is offensive quality control assistant. Spurrier spent the last eight years in an off-field role at South Carolina.

Anyone think Saban waits 6+ weeks to fill Napier's spot?

Bama seems to be choking on their own success a bit lately...

Not us, apparently:

Alabama: Tennessee director of creative services Jonathan King has accepted the role of creative director for football at Alabama. King spent five years at Tennessee and was previously an assistant director for Crimson Tide Productions from 2005-12.

Arkansas: Asked about staff additions, Bret Bielema said Wednesday he'd met with candidates in recent weeks and added, "We've got a guy coming in tomorrow. We've been affected, there's a guy that I was heavily interested in that was with a (NFL) team that got beat a week ago, so I couldn't deal with him until after the playoff loss. Still involved with one guy who is still playing. … I'm not in a hurry to change. We'll go these next couple weeks filling out and complimenting the rest of the staff.”

Texas A&M: Former FIU defensive coordinator Ron Cooper has joined the A&M staff as defensive backs coach, according to TexAgs. Cooper spent two years at FIU and was the head coach at Eastern Michigan, Louisville and Alabama A&M from 1993-2001. He has also coached at LSU, South Carolina and Mississippi State.

WTF is a creative director of football?

That's the guy that figures out all the creative ways to break the rules without getting caught.

@AschoffESPN: WRs coach Dameyune Craig is out at LSU and RBs coach Jabbar Juluke has been reassigned within the athletic department

 

[williston_gator]

Should we all just assume Craig ends up at Bama since Napier is gone?

Pat Moorer was a BMF when he played at UF!

South Florida: Former Texas head strength coach Pat Moorer has been named head strength coach at USF. Moorer spent seven years with Charlie Strong at Texas and Louisville.

Not sure, he seems like a solid coach. But, imo, LSU made the absolute best hire this off-season w/ assistant coaches in hiring Matt Canada. This just might be Canada wanted his own guy or he didn't see eye to eye w/ Craig.

But yeah, Saban has a tendency to hire great assistants. He may already have a target, but anyone in the SEC that lands Craig will benefit - no drop off coaching wise, SEC experience, and a known solid recruiter.

Since Signing Day, six college coaches have jumped to the NFL.

That includes Lance Taylor (Stanford to Panthers), Bill Teerlinck (former Nevada assistant to Bills), Eric Yarber (UCLA to Rams), Eric Price (former Tulane assistant to Jaguars), Tim McGarigle (Illinois to Packers) and Torrian Gray (Florida to Redskins).


Maryland: Kentucky defensive line coach Jimmy Brumbaugh will join the Maryland staff as co-defensive coordinator / defensive line coach, according to 247Sports. Brumbaugh spent four years at Kentucky, including working with current Maryland defensive coordinator Andy Buh.

Good hire by Butch:

Tennessee: Former Oregon defensive coordinator Brady Hoke is expected to join the Tennessee staff as defensive line coach, according to Fox Sports’ Bruce Feldman. Hoke spent one year at Oregon and was previously the head coach at Michigan, San Diego State and Ball State.

There is an uncharactertisticly large number of turnovers at Bammer right now.

Interesting to see how this plays out.

That would be weird.

i think part of the reason why we didn't hire coaches was due to the administration being cheap. Unfortunately, the university does not want to go all in on football. Alabama is all in and then some. Until the administration decides to go all in on football, this will be an average team at best.
