Elijah Robinson leaving SU to go back to Texas A&M as co-defensive coordinator. He was demoted to DLine coach, from Def Coord., at SU a few weeks back.
Is there any news at all relative to our DC hire? I know about Lynn but just wondering if there's any information. Not asking for pay board information but is there any info or timeline?

And then Warde strolls in front of the camera. Dead man walking?

Assuming they got in last night, I would think that there would’ve been a ton of staff and player meetings today and maybe even into tomorrow. This would give everybody a chance to know where they are before heading home for the rest of the holiday.

I would assume that you’ll see some names at the portal tomorrow and others that may take some more time after they talk with their parents.

I think the same thing goes for the rest of the staff, he’s giving everyone a few days to be with their family and then making a decision before the portal officially opens

Nothing to report. If it's Lynn, nothing will be announced until after his game on Tuesday.

As an Eagles fan, I am pretty sure that the thought of Chip Kelly eventually becoming the OC for Northwestern never crossed my mind.
Since leaving New Hampshire for Oregon after the 2006 season, Kelly's longest tenure anywhere has been his six unremarkable years as head coach at UCLA even though his reputation seems to be based on his four years as the head coach at Oregon. Beyond that he seems to wear out his welcome really fast, as Eagles fans know.

Interesting

This is the Wildcats turning back the clock as Kelly learned the RB-oriented spread O (the spread originating w/ Rich Rod) from the Randy Walker/Kevin Wilson era at NU, as did Urban Meyer.

Now, NU, dOSU and UM will be running variations of the same O.

This is one I didn't see coming. And note, his role (Pannell's) is not defined in the report.

it is almost like there is a portal for assistant coaches. The same ones just keep getting recycled from team to team.
