From everything I’ve heard, Neal Brown will in fact be the next HC at WVU. Expect an official announcement no later than tomorrow afternoon. #HailWV (@StrictlyWVU) https://t.co/ShrlFiOgcn

I was thinking more of a nut-kick.

To me, seems damned late in the cycle to start searching for a new coach who will then have to start searching for a staff of assistants. Not impossible by any means, but still.

This certainly will make the Sun Belt East race even more interesting this year and by extension, the entire run to the championship as well.

either way, they wont benefit from it no doubt.

Well recruiting is pretty much done for Troy , and WVU so I imagine Troy has a couple guys in mind. You’d be foolish not to as a lowly G5 program. For all we know that replacement is already drawing a check from Troy.

If I were running things at Troy, I would consider Will Hall at Tulane. He was successful at West Georgia, Tulane and Memphis. He's been recruiting the area for years and he's only 38!

You would have nothing to lose with it being so late in the coaching carousel.

With their current Roster, Hall wouldn't be a bad choice.

Sources: Manny Diaz has hired his defensive coordinator

Blake Baker, the 32-year old defensive coordinator at Louisiana Tech who is very well regarded as a fast riser in the coaching profession, is being brought in as Miami’s new defensive coordinator, sources share with FootballScoop. Baker and Diaz previously worked together in Ruston, and Baker was elevated to defensive coordinator in 2015 following Manny leaving for the defensive coordinator spot at Mississippi State. The two were also on the same Texas staff in 2011, where Manny was the defensive coordinator and Baker served as defensive graduate assistant working with the linebackers and defensive backs.

I would imagine that very few college football coaches below the head coach level ever actually buy a home.
