No RB coach, as Ogle stayed at JSU. It seems like JSU had 10 assistants.......one over the limit. I wonder if FCS is allowed one extra OTF coach?
I think FCS gets 1 extra coach, but cannot have any graduate assistants. I could be wrong though.
Clark had grad assistants at JSU.

They will have some analyst positions. Taylor Edwards, a GA at JSU, is coming over to be one of those.
"Moneyball" comes to UAB football... How novel.

That's probably how he got around the limit at JSU as well.

RE: New assistant coaches
Quote:Also in the room were the nine JSU assistant coaches who are expected to become part of Clark’s UAB coaching staff – defensive coordinator Duwan Walker, recruiting coordinator Jody Wright, offensive line coach Mike Bennefield, inside linebackers coach Chuck Dunn, defensive line coach David Reeves, outside linebackers coach Daric Riley, cornerbacks coach Blake Shrader, receivers coach Cornelius Williams and operations director Tyler Cook.
Anniston Star answers the question for us. Cook was operations director. http://annistonstar.com/bookmark/24434875/article-UAB

RE: New assistant coaches
Quote:That’s may be the biggest task Clark faces – changing perceptions of a program entrenched in mediocrity.
Given the struggles, Mackin was looking for someone “who could do more with less … to know who UAB is now and where he wants to take it.”
He called Clark, 45, a “godsend” for the program.
Clark was only at JSU one season – his first as a college head coach – but led the Gamecocks to an 11-4 record, a spot in the FCS quarterfinals and a top 10 final ranking. Mackin was particularly impressed with what Clark did at Prattville High, taking a program mired in the high weeds upon his arrival to national prominence. Mackin has expectations of the coach bringing that model to UAB.

Clark had grad assistants at JSU.
Here is rules that I have found:
11.7.2 Football Bowl Subdivision - There shall be a limit of one head coach, nine assistant coaches and two graduate assistant coaches who may be employed by an institution in bowl subdivision football.
11.7.3 Championship Subdivision Football - There shall be a limit of 11 coaches of any type who may be employed by an institution in championship subdivision football.
If he had any on the field GAs they counted as part of the 11 on the field coaches.

Great find! That pretty well clears things up.

Coaches do things on the field, an operations director doesn't coach, so not included. Schools have created positions that take other tasks from the coaches to allow them to focus more on coaching and recruiting.
