[KOdawg1]

running backs coach and special teams coordinator at PSU expected to join Moorhead's staff.

[KOdawg1]

According to 247's recruiter rankings, Huff is #4 in the country. Hail freaking yes.

[It_Could_Happen]

Incredible hire. 247 has him as the #4 ranked recruiter in the nation.

[Todd4State]

We already have a better staff than what Dan had at recruiting with one hire.

[Big4Dawg]

Recruited/Developed Barkley? Sign me up.

[Westdawg]

Wooooowwwwwww!

I can?t believe JoMo pulled him from PSU.

[Tbonewannabe]

So we are trading Knox for this guy? Should we thank Lateral Move for leaving?

[yjnkdawg]

:):cool:

[Coldsleeve Jr.]

So we are trading Knox for this guy? Should we thank Lateral Move for leaving?

I would have to say, yeah.

[smootness]

Home run of a first hire.

[msstate7]

According to 247's recruiter rankings, Huff is #4 in the country. Hail freaking yes.

Any word on position?

[smootness]

Any word on position?

Co-OC apparently. I'm sure he'll keep coaching RB.

[BB30]

On another note anyone notice Doeren just turned UT down haha.. What a joke that is becoming.

[preachermatt83]

don't underestimate what an outstanding hire this is guys!! Research this dude!!

[msstate7]

Co-OC apparently. I'm sure he'll keep coaching RB.

Co as in with Moorhead?

[KOdawg1]

Any word on position?

I assume he'll be our running backs coach and special teams coordinator as well. He has NFL coaching experience with the Bills as well. I really like this guy

ETA: i see others saying CO-OC. JoeMo will be calling the plays though

[smootness]

Co as in with Moorhead?

I'm sure Moorhead will be OC. This was likely to get him the title and a bigger salary.

[ScoobaDawg]

Give him a follow guys
https://twitter.com/CoachHuff

[msudawglb]

Penn State running backs coach Charles Huff will be joining Joe Moorhead at Mississippi State.

Chris Vannini of The Athletic reports, citing an unnamed source, that Huff will be Moorhead's co-offensive coordinator as well as the running backs coach and the assistant head coach.

Moorhead said during Thursday's introductory news conference that he would call plays for the Bulldogs, but that he would also have at least one person with the title of offensive coordinator.

Huff has been Penn State's running backs coach and special teams coordinator for four years, as James Franklin plucked him from Western Michigan when he arrived back in 2014.

[yjnkdawg]

So we are trading Knox for this guy? Should we thank Lateral Move for leaving?


Send him a fried gator, and a few groceries . So they don't have to go all the way to Orlando to grocery shop. Say thanks for the memories and Bye.

[StatesboroBlues]

Co as in with Moorhead?

Will be the same situation Mullen had...2 Co-OC but he will call the plays.

[yjnkdawg]

On another note anyone notice Doeren just turned UT down haha.. What a joke that is becoming.


Looks like Tee Martin if he even wants it?

[War Machine Dawg]

I assume he'll be our running backs coach and special teams coordinator as well. He has NFL coaching experience with the Bills as well. I really like this guy

ETA: i see others saying CO-OC. JoeMo will be calling the plays though

Does this mean we still have to wait 1.5-2 years for RBs to make an impact?*****

[ScoobaDawg]

We just us a special teams coach too maybe? HAHAHA

https://www.landof10.com/penn-state/charles-huff-mississippi-state-hire-joe-moorhead-penn-state

Huff was an assistant with the Nittany Lions since James Franklin took the job in 2014. He served as running backs coach and special teams coordinator at Penn State. Huff also worked with Franklin at Vanderbilt in 2011 and has previous coaching stops at Maryland, Western Michigan and with the Buffalo Bills.


http://onwardstate.com/2017/11/30/running-backs-coach-charles-huff-reportedly-to-join-joe-moorheads-bulldog-staff/\

Huff spent the last four years on Coach Franklin’s staff as the running backs coach and special teams coordinator. Huff was a member of James Franklin’s 2011 staff at Vanderbilt as the offensive quality control coach and they worked together at Maryland in 2009, when Huff was the assistant offensive line coach.
Huff has been instrumental in getting the most out of Saquon Barkley since he came on campus, but also coached kickers Tyler Davis and Sam Ficken to All-Big Ten Honors and punter Blake Gillikin.

[DudyDawg]

Co as in with Moorhead?

Moorhead said he would hire a few guys w that title but that JoMo will be calling plays.

[KOdawg1]

Can a mod merge these two threads? lol, me and shotgun started at the same time

[yjnkdawg]

Incredible hire. 247 has him as the #4 ranked recruiter in the nation.


Great hire and no coaching transition in reference to somebody having to learn his offense.

[KOdawg1]

Does this mean we still have to wait 1.5-2 years for RBs to make an impact?*****

just depends how they develop as a pass blocker

Watch the run back on the opening kickoff vs Ohio State.


This is the guy who is over Special teams too.

Done.. I was too busy replying and searching info on Huff to see it that quick haha

[TrapGame]

Sweet!

Hopefully 2nd OC is a top flight oline coach

[ScoobaDawg]

Say's #3...
But.. HARD PASS... He has no 5 star guys.....How good can he be? ******

[DudyDawg]

Two words: JOHN HEVESY

[BB30]

Rumor on the street is Fulmer has told administration Tee isn't ready yet and they would be ruining a good prospect down the road by bringing him in now unless they were willing to give him 5-6 years to figure some things out.

[Really Clark?]

Outstanding first hire. Great developer and fantastic recruiter.

[HA1LSTATE]

Say's #3...
But.. HARD PASS... He has no 5 star guys.....How good can he be? ******

actually had 5 star back in class with Barkley (who was 4 star)...good eye for talent for sure

[jumbo]

Love it. Gattis and Huff are the two guys I want from that staff. Doubt we can pull Gattis since he's a Franklin guy but Huff is outstanding.

[yjnkdawg]

So they are basically screwed then? I had heard a rumor after their national embarrasement campaign that Tee was probably the only one that might consider it.

[BulldogDX55]

I'd bet it'll be a WR coach- usually, when you have a play calling head coach, your two Co-OCs are a Running Game Coordinator and a Passing Game Coordinator. Since the first is a RBs coach, I'd put money on the second being WRs coach.

[mo7888]

So they are basically screwed then? I had heard a rumor after their national embarrasement campaign that Tee was probably the only one that might consider it.

At this point they need to overlook the baggage with Norvell or call Troy's coach and call it a day. Of course, who's to say they can even get one of those guys after this craptastic display they've put on.

[lefty96]

Why would any bright, young coach with a future take this job. Best to tread water at Memphis for a better place than this.

[Bully13]

Cohen and new team doing fantastic work. My Wool is growing big time.

[BrunswickDawg]

I heard Tee is PO'd because they haven't contacted him and/or not responded to an inquiry from him. Vols are giving themselves probation.

[Tbonewannabe]

Apparently Tee is mad and is at the point he doesn't want to hear from them. UT is either costing themselves every decent coach they could get or they are going to have to crazy overpay for whoever they end up getting. I knew when they were fired up about Gruden that they wouldn't be happy with who they got. Gruden has made it known that he is extremely happy with his life now and he is paid very well for his job.

I saw someone mention Todd Graham that was just fired at Arizona St. He wouldn't be a bad hire or Rich Rod but probably not much of an upgrade from Butch.

I would imagine overpay and still not get the caliber of coach the Rocky Top fans want. That bunch needs to write a book, "Things You Shouldn't Do When Conducting A P5 Head Coaching Search". Volume II to follow.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Lance Thompson should be his next call

[Kyper]

Here is what the Shitbirds are doing:

Attack Leo Lewis and his credability. The COI transcripts will never see the light of day. So why not not make up a bunch of BS to make State look bad? Spin anyway you can to divert attention away from Ole Miss. Create doubt in the minds of recruits. It's info from "sources", so they can play it off when it isn't true to keep from getting sued.

Drag Coach Green into the fray. Coach Green is a longtime friend of the Lewis family. He is not a State booster in any way, shape, or form. So the NCAA doesn't give a shit about him and can't do anything to State about it. But why not murky the water as signing day approaches to attempt to make recruits nervous about State?

Get ahead of the sanctions release. Try to steer the message. Public Relations 101.


It's just more of what we have seen for the last 4 years. Tomorrow is the final blow to a school that tried to skirt the rules and be something they aren't.

[MrKotter]

The only people that hear their message are primarily in the state of MS. The rest of the country has no clue what?s going on other than they are about to get fried. Getting worked up about what that idiot Godfrey writes or any of their other puppets is a huge waste of time.

[shoeless joe]

My only question is why dothis so late in the game? I mean tomorrow no one will even remember this as they will be talking about the exodus off of the football team based on the sanctions.

This is merely a bitch move by a bunch of cry babies tryin to act like they're still above the fray when in fact they are the worst of the worst.

All of this is for a potential lawsuit against the NCAA.

Looks like Coach Moorhead has made his first hire by bringing in Charles Huff, Penn State RB coach and one of their best recruiters.

The real media is virtually ignoring it. Pat Forde just released an article about the overall shit show that is the off-field SEC right now. He alluded to it as ?shade throwing? and the act of a drowning man trying to take anyone down with them. Doesn?t even give details, but does link the article. Honestly, I wouldn?t be surprised if the COI addresses the whole Leo thing in their response - or releases and addendum after the fact - just to shut the shitbirds down.

That’s exactly what they’re preparing for. They don’t know when to quit. They’re simply too arrogant to admit wrong doing. Been that way since segregation and it still countinues today.

Here’s a critical point: Scott Stricklin, former Miss State AD, who knows the details of this case just hired Dan Mullen to be Florida’s head coach. If there was any chance an NCAA investigation would follow Mullen, there would be ZERO percent chance Stricklin would’ve hired him. He’s not risking that hire with any legitimate threat of NCAA backlash. ZERO percent chance.

Also, DO NOT FEED the trolls. They’ve been caught lying to the media already. People know who they are now. The national media outlets will not fall for this crap. The clarion ledger obviously will pick it up and issue an apology to Ole Miss just for good measure, but the national media will not be tricked again. Their last hail marry just fell to the ground and tomorrow the plantation burns. It’s come! Sleep well tonight and enjoy an early Chsitmas tomorrow.

Just messin' with you, Haggard.

I hope they are that stupid. I can just see it now..."Mr. Farrar, you've admitted providing impermissible benefits while employed at the University of Mississippi. At any point did you, or anyone you knew, provide recruits with the services of an escort.....now, remember Mr. Farrar, you are under oath and subject to criminal penalties including jail time if it's determined you lied about this."

[thf24]

They have to know that any talk of a lawsuit is complete bullshit. If they're serious, either they really want to end their foootball program for at least four years, or their law school is as piss poor as we all say it is.

This times 1000 left them keep stirring this mess up... and MORE will come out.....

[Mutt the Hoople]

Don't forget- no matter how hard Ole Miss may plot, they're still Ole Miss graduates...therefore, they're dumber than a box of rocks.

From the outside looking in- it seems to me they are trying to force the end of the NCAA through litigation and enter into a new era controlled by the P5. The problem is that they dont have any other schools on their side backing this play

BEEP! BEEP!

[BulldogDX55]

I really don?t quite get what their overall strategy is here. If they would have just hat in hand submitted early on, this would have gone a lot smoother for them, but they are completely and totally incapable of admitting fault.

The level of immaturity is stunning.

[bobtail bob]

There won't be a lawsuit. They are doing it out of spite and it is coming from the top down in Sodom. They plan on weathering this and cranking up the machine asap. They are not going stop. There is plenty of that tobacco money left.
The best thing that could happen is someone exposes the coots for croots and ends them.

[yjnkdawg]

As long as OM is required to abide by NCAA rules and regulations, to sue the NCAA would be a stupid move. It is as stupid as an employee suing their employer, and expecting to still be in good standings with their employer. Is this The Spirit and the message board cowboys or Lee Tyner and his staff saying this? I doubt it is the latter, but if it is then. woww!!!

If they had fired Freeze when the NCAA wanted them too, it would have probably been a less bumpy ride.

i disagree about the male cheeleader from Jackson Prep not being stupid... Shemail is a 17 wuss.... and sackless...

Sueing people has long been an Ole Miss bullying tactic to try to get people from stopping them from doing something shady. They'll probably threaten to do sue but then drop it.
