There's a rumor going around that Iowa is having a team meeting today to bid farewell to one of its assistant coaches. Word is it's Erik Campbell who is leaving.
Is he the next EMU OC? This is certainly something to watch for the next few days...
Knowing EMU, we won't announce it, but he'll magically appear on our official roster.

Good info.
Makes sense. I'm surprised at why now and not two weeks ago as Iowa isn't in a bowl game.
I had this rumor about 2 weeks ago (I forgot the source already
).
When we discussed it then WEagle didn't like a position coach becoming OC.
I remembered that Campbell was a candidate for HC four years ago.
I also wonder if it couldn't be someone else...
IF I'm right on this we could know maybe early next week...
(if it is the guy I'm thinking then there was a reason to delay an announcement).
'Nough said.
If it is Campbell hopefully he can help the recruiting in Michigan. He targets Michigan and Texas recruiting for Iowa and has had success drawing SE Mich recruits out there.
My guess is that either Campbell or another Midwest position coach.

Maybe????
Iowa just lost a safety recruit fros Detroit whom was recruited by Campbell. Could be another sign that Campbell is on his way out.
Any word on Campbell leaving? I googled it really quickly but couldn't find anything.
Apparently there was some buzz going around last winter about him becoming Iowa's OC. Interesting.
Let's hope so. Haven't seen anything on twitter from EMU or Iowa

The folks out in Iowa consider him gone.
And yes he was a candidate for the HC position 4 years ago.
