Co-Offensive Coordinator: Tim Leger

[JMV JustMyView]

Tim will still be the receivers coach, Des will coach the QB's. He will bring in a TE and RB coach on the offensive side.

T, we know Troy is great in his job as director of operations. Any chance Mike offers him a on the field coaching job?

Hell no

Hell no

No that you are against the move? Or no you cant see Mike hiring him as a coach? What about Gerald Broussard while we are at it?

I don't think so, he has someone chosen. We should hear something soon.

Gerald is doing well in private business. He has no interest in returning to coaching. He does enjoy the radio color gig as well as interviews during the season. Those don't conflict with his regular business responsibilities.

It's Des putting together an intramural team?

No way he comes coach after his health issues this year

Tim current duties will not change from what he is currently doing.

I guess by currently you mean 2021 season where he was co offensive coordinator? We know he lost his co. Who will be the co in that case?

Yes as in 2021 season. I think he will be the only OC. Duties stays the same but title changes from Co-OC to just OC. That is the vibe that I am getting.

Honest question. I am especially interested in hearing from those who have played competitively, especially at the collegiate level. Is there really enough to teach a tight end to have a dedicated coach? Speaking from total ignorance here, but it seems like the TE could join the offensive line for blocking coaching and the wide receivers for the passing game. Obviously not, just wondering why....

The short answer is yes. The college game is very complex. The speed of the game makes pre-snap reads way more critical. Spacing and other assignments are much more critical at the college level.

So a dedicated position coach for each group is necessary in order to maximize the instruction given to each player.
