Toney seems to be the hot name... Is it more important to him to be UL HC or UF DC?

Toney has stated he wants to be a NFL DC, which means that UF DC is a much better opportunity. Don't get me wrong, if he wants to interview for the job, then he absolutely gets one, and is the only current assistant coach I would consider for the job.

I think there will be some flashy names that are floated and will 'apply' for the job. I expect Dr Maggard to look for someone with a plan to continue and grow what has been built. He isn't going to get distracted by the shiny object, he will go for substance. If they happen to be a flashy name, great, but not a qualification.

Tyson Helton

HC at WKU

An offensive wizard. I think we can get him.

The offensive wizard at WKU is the OC.

The offensive wizard at WKU is the OC.

The OC over there is 30. A little too young. Trust me, he is running Helton’s offense.

Tyson Helton has a very impressive coaching history, is in his early 40’s, and in the sinking ship of CUSA. A little familiar, no?

He’s getable.

Now that everything is official. It would be nice if we could make this a serious thread.

It was official, but anyone can go back and see who are not serious fans . . .

His age doesn’t matter. He is the offensive guru there. Last season WKU average less than 20 per game and finish with a 5-7 record. They demote the OC and hire Kittley from Houston Baptist. Now averaging 40+. That’s not Heltons doing, that’s Kittley’s doing.

Ron Roberts, he can keep coaching staff intact if not there gonna be kids I. Transfer portal

[HelloI'mScott]

Ty Helton makes sense. He was born in Gainesville, FL.

[angeleast]

I know I'm paranoid and beating a dead horse but I just want our next coach now.

Helton has been the OC at WKU, USC and Tennessee. Developed NFL QBs and set records. All last season proved is that he has the administrative abilities to solve problems and find coaching talent.

I would trust him 100% to build a championship staff here.

Now that everything is official. It would be nice if we could make this a serious thread.

It's my understanding that most of the assistants are staying with you guys. I hope that helps. : )

Excellent coach. Only issue is he is in his 60’s.
