Looks like he's officially being brought on now after the championship game. Looks to be a great hire

Thoughts? He seems like a pretty good recruiter, but just an ok CB coach.

I'm fine with him or Marcus Woodson. They're pretty much even to me. It's not 100% on TBuck but trending that way.
Prediction? Pain.

Couple of quick reads on Fountain from the time of his move to an off-field position at AU last year before UGA hired him:

Dude's resume looks outstanding as a special teams coach and recruiter. (I think he was Chizik's recruiting coordinator at Iowa St., too.) I wonder why Malzhan demoted him at Auburn. Maybe he just wanted Larry Porter as an on-field coach more and Fountain simply lost due to numbers?

Can anyone post the bio's of all coaches that have been hired to date. Like what I have been hearing.

I appreciate Coach Shoop and Coach Moorhead considering T-Buck! I wish we could find a way to work Coach Looney in. Both of those guys have been tireless recruiters for us. T-Buck has a large recruiting footprint and Looney works Mississippi well. These guys were a large part of us winning the Taxslayer Bowl and I will always be thankful for that.:)

It appears to be a great staff. Only time will tell us if they can work together and win
