Herb Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 My WVU friendss are pretty excited about the hiring of Neal Brown from Troy as their HC to replace Dana Holgersen. They think it'll be a pretty good upgrade. Holgersen had worn out his welcome in Morgantown and they look at him getting hired away to Houston as a favor.

LSUDad Posted January 10, 2019 Author Share Posted January 10, 2019 A few Former LSU Assistant Coaches in the news: Mack Brown is now the Head Coach at North Carolina, he has fired Darrell Moody, Moody was at LSU from 79-83 as the RB's coach. FYI, many folks think Brown was the OC at LSU, he was the QB's coach in 82. George Belu was the OL and OC at LSU during that time. Belu was in name the OC, but Brown called the plays. Freddie Kitchens is now the HC for the Cleveland Browns, he has retained WR Coach Adam Henry, Henry was the WR coach at LSU from 12-14. Kitchens was a GA at LSU during the 2000 season.

While he was here (the first two years of Jerry Stovall era), LSU had a good unpredictable offense. After Brown left (for head coach at App. St. IIRC), LSU / Stovall had two poor years that led to Stovall's firing. Mack Brown was a hot rod at one time, but his final years at UT were pretty poor. At one time he was a top recruiter at UT, but after the nat. champ. with VY, not so much. Do they get complacent, stop doing their homework on recruits and just go by Rivals.com stars? It happens to many of them, but not Sabini. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It happens to many of them, but not Sabini. Like I said, he called plays. Stovall once he took over the job after the death of Bo, kept the staff intact. Some of the players kept their commitment to LSU after the death of Bo. As for Mack, he followed stars, getting most of his class early. Then some of them, never improved their Sr years. Mack recruited the Desoto High kids, he signed the highest rated DB on the team, Bryson Echols, LSU recruited Jalen Mills. Jalen started as a true Freshman, Bryson, never really did anything. Bryson ended up transferring out to play at Zona St. Mills got a Super Bowl ring. One year, UT didn’t have a player drafted into the NFL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
