Update 2:30 PM: Coach Rod has rehired Fred Jackson. That is good news for keeping Sam McGuffie. I wonder if Coach Rod reads this blog? :-)
BTW: For those of you fans that are worried that Coach Rod hasn't contacted Sam yet. Well, he can't. It's the two week quiet recruiting period. There won't be any contact until next year.
In somewhat of a surprise move, Coach Rod has let the entire staff of assistant football coaches go. Bighouseblog.com had hoped that Coach Rod would keep current running backs coach Fred Jackson, WR coach Eric Campbell, QB coach Scot Loeffler, with an outside chance of keeping DC Ron English. Fred Jackson was very close to current top recruit running back Sam McGuffie.
Don't feel too bad for the 9 assistants that were let go yesterday. Each get their full salary for next year and most of them will get jobs at other schools or in the NFL.
If you think about it all those coaches I mention above are good coaches for traditional Pro sets, but don't have any experience in the spread offense.
How this will effect recruiting? only time will tell. I assume we will lose some.
