Thanks for posting. I know my perspective is that we should know very soon then.
Some of these coaches just like getting recruited.
I would ask two questions and then move on. You most likely already know the other stuff due to vetting and knowing their past.
1. Are you interested? Yes or No?
2. This is the contract, do you want it? Yes or No?
They are either hired or eliminated in two questions.
I am good with either one. Josh Conklin seems to be a rising star.Price and Hubbs discuss the DC search here. They said that it “feels like this job will definitely go to either Kacy Rodgers or Josh Conklin.” They added that UT probably likes Rodgers more than Conklin, but that Conklin “obviously wants the job.”
I personally don't care for turnover dependent defenses. I want a defense built on a beefy DL and explosive LBs. You control the line of scrimmage, you control the game.
With Steele not leaving yet, my guess is he is willing to stay on as a LB coach.
Will his ego allow the demotion?Steele will be linebackers coach. For him to get his buyout from Auburn, he couldn't take a job that was equal or better than what he had. If he did, then his buyout would offset from his new job. So just being linebackers coach he will get full buyout from Auburn and get paid from UT.
