Eric Russell will do good things here. Also have high hopes for Joseph. Does this mean we're not gonna hire LT's DC?

Don't know much about these guys

I still think he'll be brought here, he is supposed to be a really good defensive coach and helped fix Tech's crappy defense.

 

[TNsnyper20]

i hope he brings Spangler as the DC and keep Lance at LB coach.

soo i assume were not keeping garza?

If we should bring anybody from Texas Tech, it should be Ruffin Mcneil. He did a pretty good job with their defense.

Does this rule out Garner coming to UT?

So what does that mean for Garza now that Dooley has brought in Terry Joseph.

Garza is suppose to be staying at UT.

Russell looks like a pure special teams guy. Been a special teams coach at the college level since 1990. Not sure what his recruiting responsibilities (if any) were at TTech. He also worked at LaTech under coach Dooley for 2007-2008.

Hubbs mentioned that CDD might go with a model similar to other schools where you see on coach safeties and the other coaches DB's. Joseph could add RC as well.
