I'm growing concerned that the guy we want isn't coming. Unless he's still coaching, Jimbo should've closed the deal by now. Any updates?
Posted the same in the other thread... I think Elijah Robinson needs a title of some kind, special teams or recruiting coordinator or something. He is too big of an asset to not get a bump from this void at DC. We need to keep that guy happy!!!vander54 said:
Durkin is coming as a Co-DC with Santucci. Should be announced any day

Won't be Durkin. Waiting for NFL season to end for a reason...
If you are taking Premium for your source, prepare to be disappointed. NFL guy has been our top choice since Elko resigned, decent chance we won't have a DC until February though because of it.vander54 said:BlitzGD said:

Sarcasm?
Very unlikely it's a NFL guy. Also all but guaranteed it will be Durkin.

Working buyout with ETSU. Taking longer than expected.

It's Bill Belichick, isn't it?
Probably because Penn State hired him in December.lil_frog8 said:
Would love an NFL DC that could entice Robinson to stay a bit longer to learn under a NFL coach. I am also surprised Many Diaz name hasn't popped up as an option.
I hadn't thought of him. That would be an excellent choice.LincolnBorglum79 said:

Is it normal for NFL assistant coaches to not be named until after the NFL season is over? It's not like that would screw up recruiting for his NFL team to announce he's leaving for college when the season is over?BlitzGD said:If you are taking Premium for your source, prepare to be disappointed.

. I think Durkin is a great hire. But Dennis Allen would be an amazing hire. But is Allen wanting a chance to be a Head Coach in the NFL. Maybe being groomed to take over the Saints one day.LincolnBorglum79 said:
