Possible hiring of Pat Surtains dad to gator staff. Rumor started by their local radio host.

Not allowed to do that anymore.

It is legal to still do it if they name him as DB coach. Just cant do it if they hire him as a shadow staff member.
Its a real threat but there is also talk that Surtain Sr. has said he wont coach his son in college and wont be bought to bring his son along.

Correct. So long as it's not some special title created to lure the recruit, it'll be fine to hire his father as a DB position coach. Hiring his dad as a "General Manager" like what Austin Thomas is on our staff, that wouldn't be allowed. Landon Collins girlfriend getting that job in the athletic department comes to mind as a good example

quote:
A new rule will ban the hiring of an “individual associated with a prospect”—this could be a high school coach, a parent or a seven-on-seven coach—to support positions for two years before and after the prospect signs. (This matches a rule already in place in basketball.) In other words, a school that signs five-star cornerback Bobby Lockdown may not hire his high school secondary coach as a director of high school relations and his seven-on-seven coach as a defensive analyst. Schools still may hire such a person as an on-field assistant or head coach, so Lockdown’s buddies can still get jobs where Lockdown signs as long as the head coach trusts them to coach linebackers or tight ends. Spoiler alert: He probably doesn’t.

Actually got the full details of the rule yesterday. You can’t hire to the shadow staff but if you hire them as a full staff coach then the kid can still attend. Makes sense to protect innocent situations but if you hire the dad as one of 10coaches then you are safe

can they name him DB coach then after signing him promote who they really want to DB coach?
Posted on 12/13/17 at 8:29 am to catnip
They should have to count against that 10 coach limit.

Would you smash them, tough guy?

I love keyboard meatheads

if it's a big deal then lets just make him ST coach. Can't be worse than literally having no ST coach at all.

According to Orgeron, the special teams coach has already been hired and officially starts when the 10th assistant goes into effect in January.
Surtain Sr. could be our OLB coach to replace Meatball, though.

It’s not happening now. Yes it was just a rumor he is sticking with American Heritage.
