RE: Neal Callaway
I have no problem with Coach Clark hiring whoever he feels that he needs. Even former UAB HC’s.

This - though I like how he’s largely gone with young hungry guys. Gotta say I’m not thrilled about Cubby getting his snout under the tent
Curious to see how foundation members would respond. They really are the fans who would count on this

RE: Neal Callaway
Saw that USC fired both coordinators yesterday, wondered what that mean for Callaway. He’d been fired at USC in middle of 2018 season. You miss some stuff when you are only focused on UAB.

That's where our former OL coach, Jody Wright, went last year(OL coach of Cleveland Browns). Highly doubtful he returns to UAB, though, as once you're an NFL coach, there are multiple NFL and P5 options available to you. Of course, if he wants a soft landing spot, at least in the short term, and if there is a salary offset such as head coaches contracts dictate, he could return with ni reduction in salary...

He is/was actually an "offensive assistant" with the Browns...

Was he the same one who went to Alabama a few years ago as well or was that another coach?
