Then a separate post:
At some other school.
I figured the board would burn and someone would investigate where I live to come and murders me good and dead. Lol
Holecek will probably be the QB coach. Loadholt will probably stay off field. No clue on Duby because I do not know what he did on staff and who he helped.Quote:

Jon cooper would have been at OU when Lebby was there. Likely TE coach i would think

He was also the TE coach at Ark in 2020. UCF 2018-2019Quote:

It was a step up. He was an analyst at OU. Im not thrilled with the staff so far. A lot of analysts getting promoted.Quote:

Sounding better that we get the Oregon asst s&c coach and the director of speed...
Oh...Quote:

Also some of these analysts could be position coaches at G5 or D2 but choose to stay at the blue bloods because they are around more exposure. This is not 2009 when we were hiring Dan. Analysts are big these days. For example, Holecek has been with Lebby as an asst QB coach since OM. He could go be a position coach at a G5 or an OC at a lower level but has chosen to stay with Lebby because he knew what the payoff was.Quote:

He then takes the TE coach with Pittman in 2020 (makes sense with Briles there). He is fired less than a year later (second red flag) and goes to be the OL coach at FCS Western Carolina.
In 2022, he?s goes to Oklahoma as an offensive analyst. Then leaves this year to be North Texas OL coach.
Almost every main recruit his had has either never seen the field or transferred out. So he?s not a good recruiter and that is the rumor of why he was let go at Arkansas. AJ Green was his best recruit and the only one who did anything in college.
Hopefully he?s coming to be an analyst because he loves Lebby and not an on field role. Seems to be a below average coach and recruiter.
Is Mele getting retained? He is tweeting out State graphics with Tulu and Zavion
Meh- here is where you have to defer to Lebbo. Urban demoted Hevesy and then Mullen made him the OL coach at State. While Hev was a jackass- he was a good OL coach and recruited well except when they let him talk to a WR. Hev should have been banned from talking to WR recruits. But Hev had a great relationship with Dak and others on the recruiting trail that didnt play WR.Quote:

Had no idea that was the same Shaud Williams who played RB at Bama back in the early 2000s. Fun Fact: He played for Leach at Texas Tech before transferring to Bama.
So Collins......Quote:

None of the main positions have been filled yet...Quote:

Did you donate 100K toward coaching hires? I only ask because we are in the bottom 1/3 of the SEC in budget. We didnt just suddenly win the lottery. We can only afford what we can affordQuote:

I mean, you're saying you're not thrilled with hardly any named staff members. Why not wait and see how it shakes out? Just seemed a bit soon to start downing the potential staff.Quote:

Great moveQuote:

I was told that Urban actually told Dan that you better take your boy with you, or he is going to be unemployed. The rest is history.
