Staff assignments for those who are on board (still waiting on a decision from Tee).
Thigpen is going to coach corners not linebackers. Martinez is going to coach safeties (set up they had at Auburn). Jones has had two secondary coaches at Cincy.
Also, Stripling is the assistant head coach as well as defensive line coach.
Lawson has also spent 6 years under Butch. This pushes total cumulative years coaching with Butch to over 25 years for this staff, that's pretty sick IMO.HC - Jones
OC/QB - Bajakian
RB - Graham
WR - Martin
TE/ST - Elder
OL - Mahoney
DC/LB - Jancek
DL/AHC - Stripling
CB - Martinez
S - Thigpen
S&C - Lawson
This is not the setup they had at Auburn. Thigpen coached safeties and Martinez coached corners.
Hopefully regarding Staley staying with UT? I admit, I have been lost since about Saturday with being locked out/threads not updating. Freak has me hooked I feel like an addict haha
VOP, do you know of any particular au recruits that may consider UT now because of Thigpen & Martinez?

Brent said smoething like Staley has one more left as GA and is doing good things recruiting, but he is looking for a fulltime coaching gig, and that most new coaches dont keep holdover GA's... but were ppl are so high on Staley he could possibly stay

Tommy Thigpen is in his fourth season as an assistant coach with the Auburn defense; after three seasons working with the Tiger safeties, he is coaching the linebackers for the 2012 campaign.
TY :hi:
He has seemingly built some good relationships and is a great connection to some big recruits at Hutchinson. He is the only GA that I have heard mentioned by name in recruiting this year also, probably because he is likely the only one with exp calling plays as a DC if I'm right on that.
