Not a surprise but Mike Anthony said he’s hearing JB Grimes will be moving on with Lashlee, nothing confirmed though.

Gotta link for that? My schedule has been screwy and I’m off my Twitter/reading game.

It was in the most recent UConn Insider podcast. But given FDNY's post right after mine it looks like it's not happening.
 
I agree that it wouldn't make sense for Grimes to follow Lashlee since SMU already hired an OL coach.

Having said that, there is still the possibility that a new OC comes in with a philosophy different than Grimes and maybe wants to go in a different direction for OL Coach. I wonder what would happen in that type of situation. I'm rooting for Grimes to stay on board and for our 2017 offensive philosophy to stay relatively intact...

Was Anthony saying Grimes was going? Or just that it would make sense/was a possibility?

He won't be coaching the OL if he does...Dykes hired Jamal Powell the former Run Game Coordinator and OL coach at Lamar as his OL coach.

Maybe he's going to babysit the kids.

To me it's no surprise that Lashlee's leaving after one year for the reasons that have already been mentioned. I didn't see SMU as the landing spot as I thought Sonny Dykes is more of an Air Raid guy. Oh well.

Yeah Dykes was an exact clone of Mike Leech at Cal. Hey got one QB who went first in the NFL Draft. Honestly I think everyone here would be thrilled if we just got a QB who ended up getting drafted.

Said he heard from two people he was going

I’d be very surprised if JB Grimes goes this year.. I think he’s settled in and happy in the position he’s in at the moment.. plus he’s not 34 and looking to jumpstart his career.

Thanks - missed it.



Interesting to hear Mike’s take to not read too much into Lashlee’s leaving (27:00-30:00ish minute mark)...

Grimes is staying at UConn. I think he is shocked at Lashlee for leaving maybe even mad at him. He left Auburn to coach with Lashlee then he left him high and dry

Not true. Grimes was at Cincinnati the year before he came to UConn. He was actually let go by Auburn the year before. So he isn’t quite as “tied to Lashlee” as everyone here seems to assume.

Okay I didn’t know that good information there my bad
