Running backs/Special team coach Clayton White leaving #UConn for #N.C. State. Was a linebacker for the #Wolfpack (1999-2001).

Darrell Wilson has been at Iowa for more than a decde. He is DB/specials teams coach. Recruits NJ and the mid Atlantic. Make him a decent DC offer and he could jump.

UCONN's a little more established when it comes to MBB vs. FBS football, no? Just sayin.. Think about it bro...NOBODY, I mean NOBODY but us true UCONN fball fans respect UCONN fball... We gotta get more help outside the program.. We need a guy that can recruit FBS level talent... one that is known for his ability to recruit along with his ability to coach the position...

I agree with most of that, but I think loyalty means a lot right now. If you have the right person with the right attitude, they can make a difference. If you have one of those with deep connections to the school, it will help even more.

only if he brings kirk, but hes probaly busy right now reading my new england 2014 thread for his next recruit trip.

that wasn't a joke. they had a special called the shoemate i heard that students ordered late night all the time.

I'm guessing HFD means DJ Dogpound, not the DJ referenced.

 

[Husky68]

Didn't he make a statement to the effect last year that playing only one RB wasn't his decision? Would think recruiting a RB given GD's determination to ride just one guy is not the easiest thing to do, also would think help if coach actually played the position he is coaching (if position coach).

Fire Paul. Fire Warde. Do it today.

I think DJ Hernandez ??

 

[Jimmy Serrano]

Well, negativity becomes a self-fulling prophecy.

 

[Jimmy Serrano]

That was a comment. fwiw

And if anyone knows comments.....it's you.

 

[sportsart]

Thank you Mr. Kettle. Please hang up and try your call again.

 

[ZooCougar]

This is what happens when the employees know that the boss that hired them is gone a year from now.

Might as well find that new stable job THIS YEAR, and not wait to be discarded next year.

 

[Jimmy Serrano]

Apparently Rick Minter, the DC at Kentucky last year, has called the school looking for work. This is the type of candidate you're going to see apply for the job.

Before you pop a clot... We were talking about DJ Hernandez who is a UConn grad who has "coaching experience" - not DJ Shoemate. You need to go back to start of post for context. You got lost on this one.

That makes sense for us... Iowa plays solid D... Give the guy a chance... Especially if he has ties to Storrs CT... Coaching at Iowa for a decade helps... The biggest PLUS is his ties to NJ and the mid Atlantic....

It started here...

I'd like to see UConn start to bring back some alumni for these positions.

Who? Seriously.. the only ones I can think of are Hargraves and... and... That's about the only one I can really think of... Ferentz isn't leaving Iowa for Storrs, CT.. Who else played ball at UCONN that has any real coaching experience...

Then the tongue in check DJ comment.

C'mon man stay with us...

 

[jdb50]

I can see why PP commented about the focus on recruiting only right now. There might not be anyone on the trail but him and his sidekick when the dominos stop falling. I hope for our sake that the decision that these coaches have made about PP leading us forward turn out to be wrong.
