Another great hire

Again in the philosophy of “Develop”

Dude developed Jordy Nelson, Marques Colston, and Hakeem Nicks. And from his 2012 OC year here, 4 RU players who got snaps in NFL: Tim Wright, Brandon Coleman, Leonte Carroo, and Quron Pratt. And of course, time with Atlanta Falcons elite WRs.

Greg’s bringing back COACHES who are proven developers of NFL-level talent. 🙌

Resumes not zip codes.

We already went the shortcut/try to grab talent path.
Finally we're going to actually coach the current roster and try to be competitive that way.
 
Richie- do you know what this means for Joe Susan, Interim TE Coach?

Any word since the Football Scoop announcement about Orphey leaving?

Key details, since someone asked by Coach Shaw:

Damiere Shaw will move from WRs to RBs coach

and Andrew Aurich gets shifted from RBs coach to TEs coach, a spot he previously coached at Princeton.

That still leaves the OL coach position open.

Not Richie, but Joe will go back to his old role.

OL Position Coach - the most important one we need. Someone has got to teach the youngsters to open holes and pass block real fast!

How did he develop them?
Jordy Nelson was already on the Biletnikoff Award watchlist in 2006. Brock did not coach him till 2007 as a 5th year senior.
Marques Colston never played for him.
Hakeem Nicks played for his freshmen season before he left NC.
 
Only modern era coach to win a FB championship at RU. I'm just saying.

He could always come back and run the academic assistance department. He's proven to go out of his way for the players.
He'd be a better fit in a costuming program.
