I still believe that one of the new coaches hired will be Mike Canales from North Texas. Just a hunch I have based on Butch's comments about him. Similar to what he said about Debord last winter.
If I'm CBJ and I'm looking for a WR/passing game coordinator because CZA is OC in MD and Tee is OC in USC, I'm calling...
1. Kippy Brown. Maybe he can get past the way he was treated after Kiffin left. After all, we do have a different AD. Would be a home run.
2. Somebody from the Briles/Babers coaching tree. I know it has a lot to do with the system, but Baylor, Bowling Green, and Tulsa dominated various WR rankings this past year.
3. Billy Gonzales. Would be a long shot to leave MSU, but I'd make him tell me no.
4. Terrence Samuel. He has quietly done a very good job at Michigan St. the last few years.
5a. Kasey Dunn. You'd have to think his track record at Okie St. would be a nice sell on the recruiting trail.
5b. Canales. He actually has a very solid resume. Including a couple stints in the NFL.
*honorable mention - Gunter Brewer, Shannon Dawson, Darrin Hinshaw, and dare I say, Trooper Taylor
