Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 493515, member: 27"] I was going to make a snarky post noting that if you are one of those people who are Dan Conley fans, it does not look good for him to be brought back to the new LB coach. But maybe not. Maybe SS is going to put together a staff like this: HC: SS OC/OL: TBD QB: Lester WR/TE: Moore DL: Daoust DC/LB: Bullough LB/DB: Anselmo LB: Morrison LB: Lea LB: Conley Seriously, how is this going to work? We have 10 slots. Let' start by assuming Wheatley and Adkins are gone. If Anselmo stays, he either coaches DBs and Henderson is gone, or he gets moved 1. HC: SS 2. OC: ? 3. RB: ? 4. QB: Lester 5. WR: Moore 6. OL: ? 7. TE: ? 7. Special Teams/Recruiting Coordinator: Anselmo 8. DC: Bullough 9. DL: Daoust 10. LB: Morrison 11. LB: Lea 12. DB: Henderson Roles: HC Shafer OC QB Lester RB Anselmo? WR Moore TE OL DC Bullough DL Daoust LB Lea LB Morrison DB Henderson Special Teams Recruiting Coordinator If Morrison and Henderson are retained, we have 6 defensive guys on the staff not counting SS. 5 is a lot to allocate for defense. I think it is usually 4 on offense, 4 on defense and 1 on special teams, or maybe recruiting coordinator. Allocating 6 coaches to defense is crazy; not doable. You can run an offense with only 3 coaches. Especially when your HC is also a defensive specialist, not say, also your OC. If we continue to have 5 assistants focus on defense and 4 on offense, is Anselmo moved to recruiting coordinator/special teams? Does he coach RBs? The way I see it, either Anselmo goes to offense, or Henderson or Anselmo do not return (the other coaches the DB). The new OC might also coach TEs. Could see that happening. Believe Hackett did that (he was responsible for coaching the QBs, the TEs and was the OC; it is hard to fill when an employee covers so many roles). Then the 10th coaching spot would go to the new OL coach. Looks likely one of the young bucks on defense will become the recruiting coordinator. Another will probably take special teams, unless Shafer does it himself like DM did. [/QUOTE]
