Huxtable and Rudolph to coach at Pitt?
Looks like Rudolph may NOT get the OC job afterall and it appears that Huxtable is going to be the next DC at Pitt. I'm guessing the Huxtable info is pretty solid but the Rudolph info is speculative.
Quote:Former University of Wisconsin football assistant coach Jay Norvell, who is the co-coordinator on offense at Oklahoma, has emerged as a candidate to become the offensive coordinator for the Badgers.
A source said Norvell, a Madison native, has talked to UW coach Bret Bielema about the vacant position.
Meanwhile, the shakeup on the UW staff could be even more extensive than previously reported.
UW offensive coordinator Paul Chryst was named the coach at Pittsburgh on Dec. 22 and is taking along offensive line coach Bob Bostad.
In an interview with the State Journal on Friday, three days before the Rose Bowl, linebackers coach Dave Huxtable said he was returning to the Badgers despite an offer to be the defensive coordinator under Chryst.
“I’m coming back,” Huxtable said. “It’s 100 percent right now.” Asked if that meant it could change, Huxtable said, “It’s 100 percent.”
But a UW source said Huxtable is leaving, presumably to join Chryst at Pitt.
The source said Huxtable may have wanted to keep the “party line” and keep things settled until after the Rose Bowl, which is why he may have given those contradictory statements.

Norvell is staying at Oklahoma so it doesn't look like Rudolph will be coming. Would have been nice....

I'm glad you were wrong this time.
