UL's football program stayed within the Sun Belt Conference family to find coaches once again Wednesday. Former Middle Tennessee co-offensive coordinator and wide receivers coach Blake Anderson has been hired as the Cajuns' offensive coordinator, filling the third of four vacant slots on coach Rickey Bustle's staff. A native of Hubbard, Texas, Anderson was on the Middle staff from 2002-04 along with recently-hired defensive coordinator Kevin Fouquier. "The whole time I was at Middle, I always thought the environment and the atmosphere at Lafayette was big-time football," Anderson said Wednesday. "We played in some stadiums in the league that you had the idea that other things were more important, but when you came to Lafayette you felt the town and the people were behind you."

...Blake Anderson as the Ragin’ Cajuns offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach.

I know on paper UL was/is trying to replace the OC and WR coaches . . .

Since Blake Anderson was a very successful OC/WR coach why not let him take over OC/WR duties and hire a pure QB coach instead?

There may be a reason why that would not work . . . ???

I don't see a reason why he and bustle could not split the duties, although Bustle is already kinda tied up with kickers and Special teams.

It isn't that it wouldn't work, but an OC/QB coach makes more sense. I see WRs needing a techique coaching specialist. I see the QBs being better off working directly with the OC. If we had the luxury of a specialist for every position, that might be superior. But, in light of the situation, I think OC/QB is more natural than OC/WR. This may just be a title formality, and Bustle will fill needs in practice and game-time as he sees fit. Just my thoughts... and sometimes I don't even agree with me... me either.
