Coach Drink Staff Thread

[asu7]

This is a huge hire. Drink getting it done. I bet he is WR coach though.

[ukappfan]

Now more defense coaches! I cAnt wait to see who they hire there!

QB. I believe the WR has already been announced.

Nah. There is someone else for the WR coach.....Watts will be the TE coach.

Rumor is Steve Wilks is getting fired by cardinals. Maybe he can come home to be DC

I would gladly take him as DC. I don't blame him for the crap in Arizona. Keim is a real problem who needs to go but the sad thing is that whoever takes his role would likely want their own coach, and they should get that.

Drink has a lot of coaching contacts. I'm sure he will bring some more big names that everyone will recognize.

Thought the same thing but apparently there’s been talk of him going back to the panthers as DC.

LOVE THIS HIRE! I'll bet Dorsey's got contacts throughout both Florida and Georgia...prime recruiting ground. It feels like Drink's setting the stage for launching us to the next level. The waif for the DC is killing me but it's clear he's doing things exactly the way he said he would...quickly but not rushed. My excitement is growing!!

You hit on a very important point,recruiting.Plus NFL connections impress recruits.Merry Christmas.

Just hope that Drink doesn’t ruin this with the DC pick. Worried.

Wilks.... NFL HC to G5 DC... Not likely

All these players coming back and somehow we upgraded our coaching staff.

We had a great staff and now on paper at least, we may have an even better one.

1) my comment about wilks was a bit of a joke. I don’t expect or foresee him coming to App in any way.

2) IF wilks did come to App as a DC, it would absolutely be an upgrade to our staff even with him being a “player coming back”. He is a very successful NFL DC and experience head coaching as well.
3) our players that are being retained aren’t being placed at coordinatiors positions. I’m Sure he will get outside people for those positions, but it is good for the players and for the school to keep guys around that have left their blood, sweat and tears on that field. It helps the player buy in to the university even more than just what they would with a coach who has no ties to the university.

I think Drink is doing a great job so far of retaining “App” guys at skilled positions while mixing in more experienced “next level” guys

Why all the drama? Please explain what has given you reason to worry and how the DC decision is going to "ruin this"? Every single decision thus far has been an extra base hit.

The simple mention a few days ago that Ted Roof was being considered for DC

Did he mention Roof or all the flight stalkers? So far he’s hit a home run on hires.

With the hiring of Dorsey I wonder if Mr. Conley is experiencing a "just kidding!" moment?
