I wouldn't expect anything until after NSD.

Miles gets extra visits when you are down a man on the staff, so I think he's trying to take advantage of that.

Plus, recruiting is pretty much 24/7 this time of year. Tough to squeeze in an interview with anyone, I would think.

Incomplete. Don't see any recruits attached to him.


Isn't he Corey Thompson's recruiter? If he can pull Thompson away from A&M that's pretty good for his first year on the staff.

Thanks.

I hope the rumors of Ensminger and Krag working with the receivers is nothing but baseless speculation.

Really?

I hadn't even seen that.

Personally, I'm hoping we hire some young gun from the NFL that is an offensive assistant... much like we did with McCgauhey.

Like this guy:

and very tough to bring someone in and start up new relationships...unless he's a known guy already with area or national ties.

McGaughey was hired on March 9th.

I would imagine the same type of time frame for WR coach, unless Les already has someone specific in mind.

I saw it on a thread in the Coaching Changes board. Obviously not the most credible source , and it definitely sounds like a worst-case scenario.

The staff needs 1 more elite recruiter.

burns would be the ideal candidate.

let burns have north LA and let him chip in where necessary in NOLA.

it just baffles me that we have a guy like ensminger on staff battling it out against a recruiting heavyweight like a burns or luper.

why does Burns' name keep coming up? why would he leave Bama?

i doubt he'd leave.

but it's a name that's an obvious choice. NOLA ties, strong position coach, great recruiter.

I don't know if his name has been mentioned...but what about Tyke Tolbert?

I remember his name being greatly discussed right before we hired Gonzo. Is he still a possibility?

Burns would be boss, but there's zero incentive for him to come here, unless we're going to offer him some serious cheddar.

I wish Les could lure Charlie Baggett out of retirement... that would be a slam dunk...

Mcgaughey was hired in March because Joe rob left in mid feb.

I expect les to hire some one no later than 2 weeks after nsd.
