From what I understand, the S&C coach is one of the main contacts for the players in periods where coaches need to limit their interface with student athletes. So on top of a guy that can physically train the players in the methods that complement Dino's style, this coach will be the key person to define the program's culture for the players in the offseason. Babers needs that extension to make this culture change as quickly as possible. Good that Hicks can stay in the university (to keep the alumni connection), but Babers should have ALL say in this matter, without meddling. I saw a few of the NFL players tweet support for Hicks, hopefully they don't start meddling. We don't need the "Cuse" house divided. Let the man do his thing.
