Underwhelming, would have much preferred to see DJ Looney moved to OL.
That said, I trust the coach making the hire.

I did read a post from him last night saying it was one of his former players and would be a good OL coach for us, but he text him and Marcus said he wasn't interested and had not been contacted.

My guess is that post/thread are in the wild blue yonder by now...

I don't have a problem with him having gone to Ole Miss. Why should that matter? Looks like a pretty good hire. And I'm pretty sure that Moorhead is concentrating on getting staff members that are quite intelligent, and this guy didn't major in the things that many athletes do when he was in school. If he's not good, he won't last long. Cutcliffe apparently liked him enough to hire him.

Not to mention Cutcliffe is a great mind to learn from.

It shouldn’t matter, but i can’t help it. I hate them. I wouldn’t want Eli Manning as a QB coach.
That being said, Moorehead knows a lot more about coaching football than me, so i will reserve my bitching if he ends up sucking. But like everybody except the WR coach, he is coming into a great situation with a great returning position group, so he’s got a head start.

Criminal Justice & sociology? It's no Kinesiology but I thought those two were rather common among athletes. I'm behind the guy until he proves me wrong. Just wondering why Looney was shown the door.

Well, it's not kinesiology (best I can tell is a fabricated major for athletes), sports management, or things of that nature. Don't know about criminal justice (don't think it's common for athletes), but sociology is a bit more challenging than a lot of majors. And I have no idea about Looney ... maybe he didn't come across well in the interviews.

He would have a strong case to make telling recruits about bad experiences in oxford if he so chose to go that route. It's not all negative potentially
