Burton this morning. My guess is Neal Brown.

While not revealing the name, I am hearing that a former Power 4 head coach from last season will likely be on staff as an offensive analyst and/or special assistant to the head coach beginning this spring. One source told me the deal was done but I can not confirm it with a second source as yet. And former head coaches can be notoriously wishy-washy about such decisions.

So we’ll see if it pans out.

    So he's been on staffs with Choate, Saban, and Schiano and has Houston/Texas ties. Not going to act like this is some no-doubter but seems like it can work just fine to me.

    My sweet Lord. Reading the thread since the Muschamp hiring is borderline exhausting. Some of the hawtest takes on this recruiting board, ever, on here between pages 45 and 48. I was quoting posts at

  • This is a Nansen hire. He was behind the surge last year to bring him on as an analyst. The plan to hire him has been in place for a while, and if Blake would have stayed and Terry still left they wou

If it’s Neal Brown, that would be lucky for us. I have a good friend who played with Brown and is still buddies with him. We’d get more snippets, probably.

Keynodo sounds like a medication for cancer or eczema.  Ask your doctor about keynodo.

Can we actually be realistic and credible for once?

It's Saban. 

Admittedly I've been sick for almost a week, but I missed the Ryan Niblett to safety development.  That sure came out of left field.

It's only a matter of time till we see a recruit named Skyrizi.

I wonder how much Keynodo Hudson will help in recruiting. He will be coaching nickel, apparently.

That’s spontaneous for sure. He was one of my favorite Longhorns last year. Everytime he got snaps he was violent. I remember he almost killed a Michigan DE as a counter blocker.

Could be big with regards to spring transfer window 

I don't know about LSU, but I wouldn't be surprised if we do actually land a kid from there. Brown needs to sit a year, anyway. Would love to have Harlem Berry, but that's a pipe dream.

What happened?

a.  His kid left

b. He realized Sydir Mitchell would be starting

c.  Brian Kelly is a huge dick face

They can transfer, they just have to sit a year

Just do what tree kid from Wisconsin did and just forgo the transfer and just leave.

Maybe we find an RB named Tagamet. “All gastric and no brakes”.

He said P4 coach "from last season" so there aren't many names that fit the bill. Who else besides Mack and Neal Brown? Ryan Walters is the DC at UW now.

Watson Brown is Mack's big brother. Mom and Dad always loved him best.

Names that I think don't have a role right now:

Mack Brown lol

Tom Herman lol

Don Brown who went 6-28 at UMass and is like 70

Dave Clawson, resigned but took a role within the WF Athletic Dept

Jeff Tedford, retired for health reasons

Neal Brown

 

I think everyone else has a role currently - even Blake Anderson who was fired for cause.

I completely missed this news. Seems like a shame, dude was overperforming for Wake. Even with all the wakeyleaks bullshit.

Neal Brown was the washed up coach to be named later in the deal for Chad Scott

I'm the player to be named later.

Neal Brown is a solid offensive mind.  When he has his druthers, it's lots of targets to motion and an emphasis on getting the ball out quick to fast guys in space.  Not sure how it pairs with what I anticipated would be a more "pro-style" approach this year to take advantage of Arch's predilection for the deep ball.   Whatever form the offense takes, I'm glad Sark is continuing to bring in guys with real bona fides and coaching agility.  Really good hire, IMO

I like that Sark is adopting the Saban-style HC rehabilitation plan.

Neal Brown is officially on staff per Anwar

Did he bring the "score from the 1-yard line" play?  Hope so.

Is it typical for the strength coach to make that much more than the position coaches? Not that he doesn’t deserve it.

It's fairly common. Allegedly Becton was pursued by NFL teams this past season, so he got a raise.

Also, the S&C coach is the main driver of a team's culture. They spend more time with the players than anyone else. You really need the head coach and S&C guy to be on the same page. It's usually a bigger loss from a head coach's perspective than losing a position coach.

Nice. Hires like this are why I don’t stress about random smaller program hires from Sark. Dude was at fucking Cal
