In addition, Oregon assistant athletic director for recruiting operations David Kelly has followed Willie Taggart to Florida State, according to his Twitter account, and Bruce Feldman reports he will coach wide receivers.

@FootballScoop: Source tells FootballScoop Alabama is in the process of hiring Louisiana Lafayette DC Karl Scott

http://footballscoop.com/the-scoop-2/scoop-wednesday-january-17-2018/

Alabama: Sources tell FootballScoop Louisiana Lafayette defensive coordinator, who just a month ago was Texas Tech defensive backs coach, Karl Scott is set to join Nick Saban’s staff, working with Pete Golding (with whom Scott coached at Southeastern Louisiana just a few years back).

Alabama: Louisiana Lafayette defensive coordinator Karl Scott “has emerged as a name to keep an eye on” for the defensive backs opening on Nick Saban’s staff, per Matt Zenitz.

Good to see Skipper found spot.

For some reason I thought he had gotten a job at Missouri. Glad to see he won’t be coaching/recruiting against us and that he got back out west .......................where he and Mac belong.

You might be thinking about Brad Davis (the o line coach). I believe he landed at Mizzou.

Unbelievable! I hate that fat piece of sh*t kid!

He's had a silver spoon stuck in his mouth since he graduated HS:

UF student assistant (thanks dad)
Kansas student assistant (thanks dad)
Alabama GA, quality control (dad hooks him up w/ Saban)
FAU TE's coach for about a week.... (Kiffin, from his Bama time, hooks the kid up...then the kid screws him and goes to Atlanta)
Atlanta Falcons offensive assistant (hooked up by Dan Quinn, who was the DC at UF for the one year while dad was the OC)
FAU OC? WTF?? (Kiffin hooks him up again)

Could you imagine that rise out of HS? Never played the game, got hooked up by his dad and his dad's buddies, and now - at the age of 24 - he's the Offensive Coordinator for a D1 football team? Wow!

OC in title only. Kiffin will do the play calling, etc.

Agree on that, but it's still a big move (he was brought in to be the TE's coach last year - before he left for the Atlanta job). It's one of the fastest rises I've ever seen for a young coach. Even a coach who went straight into a GA role after his last season as a player, this is unheard of. Usually these guys spend 2 or 3 years as a GA....then land a quality control/analyst type job....then get hired at Troy or Idaho as a position coach or an FCS school. Look at Billy Gonzalez, our WR coach, or Hevesy. Those guys are still position coaches and they were on our 2006 national championship coaching staff!

Butch Davis just hired his son at FIU...
I think Petrino has like 3 kids on his staff.

*Edit* @KySportsRadio: Bobby Petrino just hired ANOTHER relative to his coaching staff...he now has his son and 2 Sons-in-law on his staff. He is like The Godfather, only much less successful and full of Fredos.
