1010 XL in Jacksonville is reporting that Chizik will meet with Kerwin Bell about the OC position at the coaches' convention this weekend.

Anyone know anything about this guy? Never heard of him.

Maybe for QB coach. K. Bell has no coaching experience at the D1 level. God I hope that it is not for OC.

He played QB at UF.

Head coach at Jacksonville U and has been successful with a great O. He pretty much runs what Spurrier ran while he was at UF.

That's who I really want for UFs OC position

Played QB at Florida. Coaching high school in Florida I believe. UF was considering him for quarterback's coach but went in a different direction (promoted a GA if I recall correctly). Would be cool if Auburn hires as an OC a guy who got beat out for a position coach job by a GA.

He was a very good QB at Florida. But going from Jacksonville U to a OC position in the SEC is a Huuuuge jump. Jacksonville U is in a league that doesn't even have scholarship players. he and Chizik were both walk-ons at Florida and were teammates and friends.

I hope he understands that Auburn won't stand for a pass-first offense if he gets the job.

I am guessing that Chizik and Bell played together at Florida.

He was drafted in 1988. He would have only played one season with Emmitt Smith.

Kerwin Bell would be very good for Auburn. He is a great coach. Everyody here wants him as UF's next OC
