Will there be any asst coaches fired??
- Thread starter MSU124
- Start date
I know Mullen has high expectations for staff, but there's no way he could have expected Mirando to transition seamlessly from GA to an assistant coach. If Mullen fired him after year 1, he's an outright *** or has extremely unrealistic expectations. If Mullen expected better results, he should have hired somebody with more experience.
For one, I think Mirando is one of our better recruiters which we need. I think another year and he will be responsible for pulling in some talented players for us. He is a likableguy and is young which helps him to relate to recruits. People say our Wr's suck because of him but do they? No doubt Bumphis numbers are down but Clark's and Smith's numbers are up along with the addition of Lewis, Johnson and Sanders...<div>
</div><div>Just some stats that I'm going to throw out to people that think Mirando is the problem with our receivers getting open...</div><div>
</div><div>Last seasons stats through 13 games: Rushing Yards: 2793, Rushing TD's: 28, Passing Yards: 2424, Passing TD's: 18. </div><div>
</div><div>This season through 11 games:Rushing Yards: 1779, Rushing TD's: 15, Passing Yards: 2165, Passing TD's: 16</div><div>
</div><div>It's not hard to see what the problem is. I think most people like to blame Mirando, because Bumphis numbers are down but in reality we just have some other players stepping up and the ball is getting spread around more. Last season we had 7 players with 100 yards or more receiving. This season we currently have 9 and if Carr wouldn't have left the team we would have 10 players with over a 100 yards receiving. Now I'm not saying Mirando has made our receivers better but he sure hasn't made them any worse, especially when you had the run game last year setting up a lot of 1 on 1 for our receivers because teams were filling the box with 8 and 9 players. While this season, we are seeing a lot of teams not loading up the box because our OL play is much weaker causing some of our receivers being doubled up and not allowing us to make the big plays this season. I will also add that we have missed a bunch of opportunities this season with our receivers getting open down field and either Relf or Russell would over throw the receiver or under throw the ball. I just think there is a lot of unwarranted blame put on Mirando when it comes to our receivers getting open. </div>

When you see Dan with that laminated sheet of paper on the sidelines, the offense almost always gets better.
Not gonna happen in the least. Koenning is one of the better recruiters on the offensive staff and has great ties to Texas which will see more emphasis now that A&M is in the fold. Great recruiter along the Gulf Coast from Mobile all the way to Houston.
Weakest recruiters are Hevesy (imagine the personality of sandpaper) and Mirando (inexperience) and Sallach is a non-factor buddy hire. I'd say he was a weak recruiter but that would bring some quality, although weak, to his description. Knox does a great job as well.
Defensively, changes probably won't happen there either. Hughes and Smith are great recruiters and the co-coordinators are super coaches and recruiters.
Felker fits his role well and a asst recruiting coordinator to take the place of Ouimet must be hire - this time hopefully a non-douche.
