He may be. George Munoz brings much more experience as OC, WR, and QB coach. Considering the offensive side of the ball will have a former OC and head coach as an analyst to go along with the experience Munoz and Leger bring we will be fine there. We definitely need Lamar to be a home run because the coaches are definitely a lot younger on that side of the ball.Quote:

So Morgan and Neighbors will both coach safety?
Morgan will be the DC. He could also coach safeties and move Neighbors. Those guys are very capable of moving positions at this level. The RB Coach was a TE and WR analyst in the past. To my knowledge never worked with RBs before.Quote:

Many will be applying for the various positions still to be filled……the ones chosen will come in with an attitude and desire for great results….. Troy W is as valuable at his position as any school in the country might have, and what an absolute great teammate for the staff…..we can use everything we want from the past success and improve with some new Blood….Geaux Cajuns!Quote:

Asst. OL - Out Stepleton; In Bryant Ross
RB - Out Juluke; In Bergeron
TE - Out Des; In Munoz
DC/OLB - Out Toney; In Morgan
DL - No Change Segrest
ILB - No Change Scott
CB - No Change Burris
S - No Change Neighbors (Maybe Neighbors and Lamar switch positions)
Strength Out Hocke; In Neighbors
Thoughts? There aren't any "wow" hires. But I'm not worried about that. We won't know whether hires are good or bad until games are played. It seems overall that the staff has become less experienced, both in time and locations. Munoz should help Des tremendously on offensive side. By all accounts, Toney was a rising star on the defensive side of the ball, so let's hope Lamar can fill those shoes. I've heard a lot of good things about Bergeron. Hopefully, someone can pick up the slack recruiting in NOLA, because I think that's critical to our program.
My hope is that what these guys may lack in experience, they'll make up for in grinding and hard work.
Off field staff will be extremely important hires now.
Munoz is a wow hire for me. He will be much more seasoned since his first stint here gaining experience at Baylor and lsu. He was very involved in the passing game coordination the year that joe B. won the heisman. Should be great for young coach des to have on staff.Quote:

Welp, chalk up another one gone to Florida.

2. Depending on when Texas and Oklahoma move over, the current reasoning is that Alabama and Auburn will move the the SEC East. All of sudden that becomes a much tougher division than it currently is. Still think Napier will deliver way past .500, but winning the SEC East will be a heckuva lot more difficult.
So I guess Napier doesn’t have connections either?
Boy you are correct . . . Looks like the only place he likes to shop for players and coaches is Louisiana . . .Quote:
