Now this would be a slam dunk hire.

The hire I wish we'd hear some news on which I actually think is a more important hire than DC at this point is Strength and Conditioning Coach.
Hire Tommy Moffitt
I think I willed this into existence

OP updated with Moffitt hire.

This one is a home run. Love it!

I'd just like to say on record… Elko has done a brilliant job assembling his crew so far. Despite the losses in the portal, I'm genuinely hyped for this coming year. It really feels like he could be building a squad that could do some incredible damage. But the good damage. Not the Sumlin damage.

So what are saying is hottie for Elko over this S&C coach?

Elko is putting together one hell of a staph.

What a great hire. Serious question for some of you that might know, how many assistants does the SC coach get to hire? Or how many are there normally?

So far every hire by Elko has been good. I'd give him a solid A on his hires.

DC may take a little longer but I'm looking forward to it.

Do we (you) know WHY it "may take a little longer"?
Alexander, Caesar, Charlemagne, and myself founded empires; but upon what foundation did we rest the creations of our genius? Upon force! But Jesus Christ founded His upon love; and at this hour millions of men would die for Him. - Napoleon Bonaparte

Yes and it's not bad necessarily unless you're one that think we have to have a DC to recruit defensive players. Also its not because we're waiting on anyone or been rejected. The closest to a rejection we've seen is Fuller and I'm not sure how far that progressed.

Bump...just to keep this thread higher on the board. I like that the OP is keeping it all in one place.

and a DC hire being expedited would be MUCH more important if our head coach wasn't one of the top DC's in the country for multiple years leading up to becoming a head coach. I'd be concerned if we had an offensive play caller as head coach. Elko will find/get who he needs.

Happy to see we got a stud S&C coach.
Looks like it will be a while before we see a DC announcement.
Any word on who we are looking at for Special Teams?

David Beaty for WR coach (now at FIU)? A great recruiter, former WR coach under Sumlin, great ties to TX.

Wouldn't be terrible. The effort our WR played with under him I haven't seen since. Those guys played every play 100% no matter where the play was going.

I remember getting invited to go watch Spring ball one year and Listening to him coach his guys is the one thing I really remember well. He is a great teacher and explainer of what he wants from his guys at receiver.

Probably going to be Duke's TE/ST coach

If you haven't watched Moffitt's interview, well worth the time

Awesome interview. I love it that T Bob hates him for being at A&M now but you can see the respect that he has for Moffitt. This is a great hire by Elko.

I still believe after the bowl game on the 27th things will start heating up to finish out the hiring of the position coaches. The DC hire might be after one of the major bowl games. At least that's what I'm thinking.

So it looks like Manny Diaz is naming Jonathan Brewer from SMU his OC, does that mean Kevin Johns will be coming here in some capacity? Maybe WR coach?

May be Elko will let Klein pick his own WR coach or he might at least have a say in the matter.
