Coaching Staff Updates: Robinson named linebackers coach

I usually skim past them. The info isn't worth the attitude. If I want condescension I'll get in from Law, at least he's funny.

Funny haha or funny shark humping ?

I know it doesnt mean much but both Taggart and Kelly are having awful times putting together their staffs. The fact Taggart can’t land anyone is surprising. Who would have known getting three coaching staffs to search for new jobs/ relocate in less than a year would come back to bight you in the coaching circle?

Regarding the makeup of coaching staffs, it seems that some believe the paradigm should be to identify the best assistant at each position group and assemble an elite staff without regard to familiarity or past relationships. If that's the model, it doesn't seem to take into consideration the chemistry of the staff being that these guys spend 60--80 hours together throughout a good part of the season and need to have a good working relationship.

On the other hand, I am curious as to how Gator fans would have reacted had Scott Frost been hired and brought his entire staff from UCF? Would anyone have expressed concern with that defensive staff coming to Gainesville? Do you think the AD would have said "you can't bring all your guys. You have to bring in some elite assistant coaches from elsewhere"? Would Frost have taken the job without the freedom to bring "his guys"? He obviously was allowed to take them all to another major college job.

Everyone saying good thing we didn’t get Frost... he’s too loyal and we’d be stuck with a UCF coaching staff..... Anyone see that UCF coaching staff hand Auburn their asses yesterday? I was like, damn! That may not have been so bad...

From earlier today@bradyack: Miss St. Interim HC Greg Knox is likely going to join Florida’s staff. Also lots of high praise for UF’s new strength coach Nick Savage. #Gators better be ready for tough offseason.

Florida: Sources tell FootballScoop Oakland Raiders linebackers coach Sal Sunseri is a strong candidate to join Dan Mullen’s staff at Florida coaching the defensive line. Sunseri coached defensive ends for Jimbo at Florida State 2013 & 14 and served as defensive coordinator at Tennessee prior to that (and as Alabama’s assistant head coach / linebackers prior to that).

That would be a solid hire.

[Marianna-FL_Gator]

[t-gator]

Sunseri would be a homerun dline hire.

@InsideTheGators: It has been expected that Greg Knox would join the Florida staff after leading MSU in the bowl game. It could be as the tight ends coach according to @FootballScoop

I dont know why wed keep Skipper. He is at best a C- coach, and I suspect he is an F.

 

[GatorWarfare]

I dont know why wed keep Skipper. He is at hest a C- coach.

I agree, but I think Grantham can bring him along and Skipper can focus on recruiting his butt off like he did this past year

And...the way he was going before our staff change...he's an A recruiter
