Bad question to ask, but i did wonder why coach didn't say you can only comment on kids who have signed a LOI.^This^

His faux accent killed any lingering swag he may have hadLol. Brian Kelly no swag.
Keep dreaming. We have so much work to do in football before we even get close to BCU or Syracuse. Maybe Rutgers we can win a few battles. But Penn State?I believe that UConn CAN BE the top ranked team in the Northeast. I think Penn State is the top, but we can be as good as they are and maybe in some years better, but Rutgers, The Fruit, BCU can be beaten in recruiting and games...
Guess it depends on whether khaki pants stays in AA or heads off to NFL."In a somewhat surprising development, defensive line coach Shaun Nua has been hired by USC to the same position. We hadn't really heard anything that suggested Nua would be looking around, but he's a west coast lifer and Lincoln Riley is a very popular dude out in L.A. right now.
Now, Michigan must replace him. And they might have their new guy on staff already. Defensive analyst Ryan Osborn has been praised all year as a guy who helped out in many areas, including along the defensive line and with the linebackers, and as a recruiter. If Jim Harbaugh wants to keep the positive culture that clearly played a huge role in the team's success this year, Osborn would be a great move. The players love him, he's young, he's energetic and, perhaps most importantly, he's familiar with everything.
It's also worth noting that he's definitely gotten to where's he's at by paying his dues. He's been a cornerbacks coach, a special teams coordinator, a wide receivers coach, a video coordinator, the director of football operations and more at several small schools over the last 13 years, which shows that he's a worker. Hiring him as the new defensive line coach would be a good move from a continuity standpoint and from a culture standpoint. Harbaugh brought in a bunch of new guys this past year and it worked. Osborn was a part of that and would be a nice, stable piece on the staff if he were promoted. "
I can't imagine he would go back to the NFL..but if he did...imagine the dominoes that will start falling again. Unless they hire internal.Guess it depends on whether khaki pants stays in AA or heads off to NFL.
Robert Trombley is also listed and was recruiting creative director at LSU
Well that's optimistic.Davidson is probably next as he is changing his bio as it now says director of playoff personnel
It is a guess as he is listed on the website and he is changing his profileWell that's optimistic.
Aim highWell that's optimistic.
I was thinking that it was optimistic to be hiring someone to direct our personnel for the playoff.It is a guess as he is listed on the website and he is changing his profile
He is not listed anymore but they did have him listed with the email of another analyst. He recently got a follow from Hilliard and was replaced at DC at Maine on the 7thMike Ryan also listed as a defensive analyst. Could that be former Husky OL Mike Ryan? He’s currently at U Maine…
Good point. we need to give our influencers something to work with.Honestly a very important hire. Our graphics and social media presence has been so poor.
No (well, not that I’ve seen from a reliable source).Has anyone reported on contracts $$$ yet?
Once the new $$$ come in if you want to compare:Has anyone reported on contracts $$$ yet?
Just out of curiosity, what does it matter how much they make as long as they are here already?Has anyone reported on contracts $$$ yet?
Shows a (financial) commitment to the program at an appropriate level. By doing so, you have a talking point to recruits, players and staff, while taking ammo away from the shut-it-down crew.Just out of curiosity, what does it matter how much they make as long as they are here already?
In all honesty, do you really think that a recruit cares how much the coaches make? I would hope that relationships with the coaches, academics and things like that would be a higher priority. Heck, NIL opportunities would make more sense for a recruit than what a coach makes.Shows a (financial) commitment to the program at an appropriate level.

Yes. It's a sign of institutional support and program health.In all honesty, do you really think that a recruit cares how much the coaches make?
