Scott Stoker should be very familiar to older UL fans. Former NW State QB has now been coaching over 30 years. Was NW State head coach (2002-2008). Has been Offensive Coordinator at McNeese (1999) and Defensive Coordinator at McNeese (2000), Sam Houston State (2009-2012) and UTEP (2013-2015). LB coach at ULM (2016-2020) and LB/Safety coach at Tarelton State (2022-2023).

Is being a former ULM staff member becoming a prerequisite for a job here?

Lots of posting here in the past about Belhaven.

Northwestern state just hired Blaine McCorkle as its head football coach. He was the HFC at Belhaven before this hire.

Lol I think both hires being men in the twilight of their careers tell you the temp of the program.

Noticed that. Other than Dez, pretty much fits right in.

we needed more experienced coaches in both of those positions. take it for what its worth. Norrid was very experienced and his assistant Ross not so much. Ross stays on as assistant OL coach. same is true for LB coach.

Probably Matt Viator connections.

Ron Roberts would disagree. UL was his slingshot to big bucks
