Narduzzi is staying at MSU.

 

MSU tripled his salary.

That's a good reason to stay.

Auburn agrees.

[Old Style]

Anyone have any info/opinions on Mark Snyder? Any USF or tOSU fans on here? A&M hired him as their DC today and I don't know anything about him except what little I've read in the past hour or so.

I'm hearing that Dirk Koetter, offensive coordinator of the Jacksonville Jaguars, may be named AU's offensive coordinator later this week.

[TruffleShuffle]

i wasn't aware the jaguars had an offense.

 

also, it's amazing how much some coordinators move around. i'd hate that nomadic life.

Don't misunderstand my post questioning the content of your post as interest.

Wait, who is the equipment manager?

I hear he is "fluent" in Word, Excel and Photoshop Elements. He also had a CDL Truck license in 1988 (since expired)

ND extends Kelly a couple years thru 2016.

ND extends Kelly a couple years thru 2016.

Isn't that when they finish paying Ty's contract? Still five or six more for fat ass.

[Andy]

I thought he was already signed through '15, shows how much I know.

[Tracer Bullet]

ND hired Tennessee's (former Bears) OL coach. Getting mixed reviews, I think bc he isn't god (not the god, but one of the lesser ones).

I remember he was a career college coach and part of that staff of "teachers" Lovie originally, and unsuccessfully, put together. He should be competent enough to coach the line on ND though.

His performance looks pretty solid at most stops. And I read that every one of 12 starters at Illinois during his time play or played in the NFL (no idea if that's true, but have seen it now several times).

I wasn't a big fan of the Hiestand hiring when Dooley made it simply because he came from the Bears and their line had been awful. However, I didn't know whether to chalk that up to simply terrible talent or whether it had to do with coaching as well.

 

I will say, after two years at Tennessee, a very talented offensive line has regressed from year one to year two. There's a lot of young talent on the line and they showed signs of coming together during the 2010 season, but last season we had a horrid running game and from watching every game, it was clear the line wasn't getting a push and the holes simply weren't there for the backs. It could just be the players not executing and may have nothing to do with Hiestand, but I've not seen much to encourage me about his coaching. Seems to be a pretty solid recruiter, though.

 

All that said, Tennessee hired North Carolina's Sam Pittman to replace Hiestand and that appears to be a really good move.

[Guest]

Sal Sunseri is the new Tennessee DC.

[SouthSideRyan]

Good, I haven't heard about a ridiculously named SEC coordinator in a while.

[snoodmonger]

KU hires Dave Campo for its DC.

 

Campo fun fact: at 65-years-old, he's still faster than his starting CB at Dallas, Terence Newman.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

I wish Iowa would hire a DC, preferably a really good one.
