Remaining Hires

[kalm]

I'm guessing that it's far better and wait to make the right hire for OC. It would be surprising to see us make a splash with new hire, so it will more than likely be a Troy Taylor/guru-in-waiting that few have heard of. You sell the recruits on continuity of a system that has produced unbelievable success then properly vette and match the hire to that.

Once again , Brett Jay from Hanford would be awesome

The signing day special saw the announcement of Bodie Reeder as our new QB coach. He played QB at Eastern Illinois. He's coming from OK State where he was an offensive QC coach and Asst. QB coach.

Heard the same thing, he will fit right in to Eastern's offense.

Solid pick up for coach:

There 4 open spots. Those four choices are far more important than all of the player commits combined!

 

[Atomic Eagle]

Has anyone heard of any updates???

 

[DefendtheRed]

Nothing so far I'm afraid.

Falcons hire former Alabama OC Steve Sarkisian as Kyle Shanahan's replacement...remove SARK from the list.

Hopefully we hear something soon. Spring Ball is right around the corner.

Yeah, rolling into Spring Ball with vacant positions would be pretty odd/embarrassing.

I wouldn't sweat it one bit. Eastern has been a production factory for offensive coaches during the recent years. Anyone who is upwardly mobile would love to be at Eastern. I'd bet Best is sitting on a stack of resumes.

Good point. I'll take your word for it.

Take your time Coach and make a good choice. This hire is key...second only to yourself. Should be some quality candidates that want to make a name for themselves and EWU is the place to do it!

 

[FormerEag]

I heard a totally unsubstantiated rumor that there is at least one OC candidate lined up. I'm with Dopa, nothing to worry about.

Any word if Coach Best is going to assign Special Teams Coordinator to one assistant or divvy it up amongst several assistants like Coach Baldwin did?

CBB was the Special Teams coach...he didn't divvy up those responsibilities as far as I am aware.
