I have no idea if he’s even in consideration but that would be a fantastic choice

I'm not sure if this is reference to the WCU DC mentioned in the preceding post, but the Catamounts gave up 50 to VMI, 59 to Mercer and 66 to Samford this year. Pass.

I'm unclear as to whether you're suggesting this is a lateral move or a step up.

Well,
If you want to ignore all the good defenses he was a part of with App St and ECU.

How about the Charlotte Defensive Coordinator?

JMU defensive coordinator Bob Trott has announced he will not be back for the Dukes. He might be worth a look.

Agreed. He should fit within our budget too.

Other than the DC of W Carolina strangely showing up atop my twitter friend suggestions

Same thing happened to me with Sean Spencer of Penn State. But that ain't happening.

Ton of experience. Might be what we need to right the defensive ship. Even if it's just for a few years as he's 64 and may want to swan song before retiring... maybe he wants to retire at the beach? =]

Trott is headed to ECU

I saw HM was covering a BoV meeting today. Do football hires require BoV approval at ODU?

HM is covering academics and athletics. Could be a number of things.

Correct, the expectation at ODU (as I understand it) is he will spend 50% of the work week on the academic side of things and 50% on the athletic side. I have also heard via the rumor mill that his work is coveted so much that currently both sides actually want him for 65% of each week. Alas, as there is only one of him that 130% of 100% is pushing him pretty hard.

Although I don't diasagree with any of that, neither of you answered the question.

No, they don't.

How about Greg Manusky?

Somewhere in one of these threads someone asked what it might cost for a new coach. Here's what USAToday has for each of our assts coming into the season:

3 coaches. Brian Scott is taking over the OLine job.

Yes, but that means we need a TE coach, which Scott coached last year

We have tight ends?


That's actually a position I expect will play a much larger role out of necessity next season. Got plenty of size and athleticism there.
