    Besides Tyson, all senior S & C coaches will not be retained.

    Haha. I almost made a separate thread to declare:

    Will Friend will be the new OL coach

    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.

    Duby is interesting. Been a student coach since his freshman year in HS when he threw out his shoulder. Best I can tell graduated HS in spring 2021. So.... he's an undergrad coach???

    Was Jon let go from OU? Or is UNT OL coach a step up?

    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.

    He was an offensive analyst there. Not sure why he left Western Carolina after 1 year of being the OL coach.

    Are we really about to hire Arky's OL coach? It might have been the worst OL in college football this year

    That is who Lebby worked directly with. I mean this was not a sitting HC with a staff built out. 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.

    If he?s the OL or TE coach that?s a pretty bad hire (I?ve liked all the others mentioned so far mind you, before you think I?m bashing or being negative, just realistic).

    He was TEs coach with Heupel and Lebby at UCF. But Heupel didn?t bring him to Tennessee (first red flag).

    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.

    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.
