2015: UL OC Jay Johnson is Heading Home

[bigearl]

Wonder if Haack ends up in Minnesota...

[CrazyCajun]

I think haack wants his parents to be able to see him play, I think he will be somewhere in Louisiana or Texas

-----So who is the new guy---Gautier comes from LSU!!! Kidding but I would think that the $250K salary would interest quite a few up and coming along with oldie but goodies---Think that we would choose a guy who has pulled the trigger from the top spot in the offense!!! Carl Smith returns to Lafayette----Finishes with a Super Bowl win and almost 20 years as a coordinator and QB coach with retirement money ------What about promotion from the current Offensive staff??? They have been together for 5 years with some good success----Would the OC also be the QB coach---Will some coaches be let go??? Let the post begin!!! LOL

Thanks for the fun times Jay.

Hope you have continued success at Minnesota.

---64 games is a lot of preparation and experience----Gonna be tough to replace!!!

Good luck to coach Johnson. He is a good coach an a class act as an individual.

[CajunEXPRESS]

No panty twist here, just saying he did do some good here and they guy knows how to run an offense. I wish him luck.

You and I may be drinking the same beer. We're gonna miss this guy. He was not our problem.

Jay Johnson was a great guy and a very good offensive coordinator. He will do a tremendous job wherever he ends up. He is not only going home but working his way up the coaching ladder. I remember not so long ago we could not get a coordinator with FBS coordinator experience. I still feel he would be a good choice here as a head coach if Hud decides to leave. I view this as a very positive event that shows young up and coming coaches that you can come here, learn and move up the coaching tree.

[CajunEXPRESS]

Hud is never going to decide to leave UL. He's a lifer, and in all probability will get fired in year 8-11.

[Turbine]

This past season was probably the difference between Jay Johnson getting a head coaching gig somewhere and a lateral albeit upscale conference move to Minnesota.

I have a feeling he would have been gone either way.

In 2014 Ragin Pagin spends an entire season calling UL's DC garbage and he gets a big promotion to an NFL team.

In 2015 Ragin Pagin spends the entire season calling UL's OC garbage and he gets a big promotion to a Big Ten school.

You guys have the magic touch around here.
