Friend who coaches D-1 in Georgia (originally from Wisconsin) says Ags have talked to a Packers assistant for a staff position...

That's either Jerry Fontenot or, gulp, Shawn Slocum...

Oh Lord, please let it be the former...

things worked out really well with Dat. Let's put ourselves in position to fire another former student in two years.

Fontenot...remember him..from SE LA I think. OL coach???? Yeah, that might work.

he was a beast on the o-line back in the day. I'd say the Pack is/has been doing pretty good running/throwing the ball...

Nothing is wrong with Dat, it's just that he doesn't look to be retained with the coaching switch. I'm sure it sucks for someone like that who is at his dream destination, but now has to move on and only hope he gets to come back one day.

Unless any coach has experience signing 2 four star ranked players each year for the past 5 years, we absolutly don't need them.

Did you see the LB play this year? I like Dat, but losing him is not a big deal.

The sack leader from the b12?

Remember Shawn slocum was on staff with sumlin in 2001-2002

I agree with bumpas, we need some "lights out" recruiters.

Please tell me this is just a troll thread... I would seriously have a stroke if Shawn slocum was brought back here.

That would be the Aggie way of doing things-hiring Shawn Slocum as DC....

I think you could stick a fork in Sumlin if he tried to bring Shawn Slocum back in any capacity. I think it was RC's idea to replace Shawn with Hankwitz that got him fired back in 2002. Don't tell me we are going down the same road again.

I'm probably remembering this wrong, but didn't Shawn Slocum coach special teams here, when we actually had decent special teams, and man it has been a while since that has been the case!

You mean when Lechner was here?

Shawn Slocum is one intense dude. He has done quite well at the Packers. I certainly wouldn't want him coaching on the opposing sidelines. In my opinion, he would be a fantastic addition to Sumlin's staff.

The folks on this board only associate Shawn as the son of R.C. and, therefore, dismiss him because of a linkage to the past. That's fine and understandable. However, those folks probably know nothing about Shawn other than his last name.

I see a long list of award-winning players, high NFL draft selections, and high team unit rankings under his supervision.

His best bet is to stay with the Packers. He hasn't coached or recruited in the college ranks for 10 years and was not that good of a recruiter.

The post I was responding to pretty much dissed all linebackers.....and to address your point, don't you think all of the LB coaches and LB's worked together much of the time?

If Shawn S. is the best Kevin Sumlin can do, he doesn't have much going for him as a head coach. Thats like Fanchione hiring Torbush and then following him up with Darnell or Sherman digging up Joe Kines. Surely there is more to Sumlin than that.

Thibodeaux, Fontenot, the place is buzzin’

Good to see the brother-in-law network is still in place with the Sumlin administration. That's going to help us win in the SEC. NOT!

We need a reunion on the coaching staff.
Ensminger for OC, Hankwitz for DC, Lynn Amadee QB coach, Les Koening for WR coach and Toledo for OLine Coach. Who else we missing here?

Davie, and Babers have jobs.

Fontenot had the longest NFL career of any Aggie I know of...something like 16 years as an OL.

No way Fontenot leaves GreenBay..Slocumb yes

LSU fight song????? On an Aggie board?????

Or, was that from the classic album, "Les Miles Sings Hank Williams"?

(Personally, I thought "Mike Sherman Sings Ernest Tubb" was much, much better! :-)

Shawn Slocum is the reason we kept punting to Wes Welker in the '02 Tceh game.

Shawn Slocum lied to Drew Brees during a recruiting telephone call ...

Told Brees "I've got to take this call, I'll call you right back ..."

Brees, who's Dad is a former student, never heard from A&M again, and the rest is history.

Shawn Slocum hire would be the kickback RC gets for getting Sumlin hired.
