Another piece to the puzzle.

You know, every keeps saying they can't believe the whole staff isn't in place by now. It would be interesting to look back and see the timeline for when PP was announced as HC and Diaco as HC and the remainder of their staffs were named.

Considering 6 years ago to the day PP was announce, Edsall and staff are ahead of the curve.

Yeahhh, the PP days are not exactly what I would chose as a benchmark.

Aman says Chris DeBerry staying on. Was coordinator of internal football logistics under HCBD. No mention of his position under HCRE, if true.

Didn't they both announce their staffs on or around signing day? That wouldn't have worked well this time around... not with all the lack of success during their 6 years of futility...
 
O.K. This was clearly a low seniority, low pay hire, for someone whom Edsall knows, has NFL experience and who recruits the mid-Atlantic. Sounds fine.

Doesn't in any way distract me from the most important slots left of OL and DC.

I don't know which is why I was asking. But I was quickly reminded, as was everyone, PP was official today 6 years ago. Edsall and staff are already ahead of schedule.

I live in Myrtle Beach now and watched Coastal lose this year to Georgia Southern 59-58 or something like that. They did have some strong games defensively but that night, everybody lit it up.

Not sure about this one.

It's always hard to tell if there is a lack of talent or the coaching is poor. I would imagine Randy knows his skill level pretty well. In Randy we trust.

EVERY team will have a moment where plenty of points gets scored on their Defense... GA Southern runs a triple option, so that's a horrible game to judge DB coaching on...

It was a 2OT game and Ga So put up less than 150 yards in air?????

Has CC put any DBs in pros recently?
 
Head Coach-Randy Edsall

Offensive Coordinator and QB Coach: Rhett Lashlee ($350K plus incentives)
WR Coach:
TE Coach: Corey Edsall ($95K)
OL Coach:
RB Coach: Terry Richardson ($245K)

Defensive Coordinator:
LB Coach: Jon Wholley ($155K)
DL Coach:
Safeties Coach:
CB Coach: Curome Cox ($175K)
Special Teams Coach:

Strength and Conditioning Coach:

Defensive Grad Assistant (1):
Defensive Grad Assistant (2):
Offensive Grad Assistant (1):
Offensive Grad Assistant (2):

Press release had Cox as DB coach. The staff is limited to 9 assistants so it is likely that there will be no Special Teams coach. Edasll took over coaching safeties 2010 when he was HC and I would expect him to have a very active role in the safety and DB coaching. Edsall still has a good chunk of change to spend on the DC, OL and DL as he is at $1.02M of a $2M budget for assistant coaches. Unclear if Steinberg's Director of Football Operations salary of $125K or the S&C coach comes out of the assistant budget.

It was also Charleston Southern - not Georgia Southern.
