Hopefully opens the door for White to hire a guy.
They couldn't have known too long ago because the KSU position just opened a week ago when their DC/LB coach left for MSU.I wouldn’t be so shocked if Dino and Co knew that this was coming and already has a replacement inline and ready to hire

Id lose it. Urlacher is my favorite player of all timeBring in Brian Urlacher to coach LBs! Played the position under Long and also thrived in the NFL.
Ulracher was actually a safety in college if I remember correctlyId lose it. Urlacher is my favorite player of all time
I'm a little disappointed he's leaving, particularly a few days before Spring Practice begins. Thought he was one of our better coach/recruiter combos. Guessing he was disappointed he didn't get the permanent DC job-It's not like he's going to Alabama. The connection to K-State makes sense, as their HC was previously North Dakota State HC, where Stanard previously coached his Defense.
If this is correct it is a big loss. I know others probably will disagree but in my opinion it would have been better to have standard coach the DL instead of Reynolds. In my opinion I felt standard did a better job at coaching up the players. I’m sure others have a different opinion.
I respectfully disagree. If they wanted to let Stanard go, they could and would have done so. Disappointed Stanard would do this to Dino so late in the game/close to Spring practice after Dino gave him a shot to audition for DC last year and kept him on after the new DC came in, when he could have dumped him for a 3-3-5 LB coach when he hired White.My guess is this was mutual. I don't think it had anything to do with the DC job. It had been open for months. No room for him on the DL and while we do have an open LB position, we maybe wanted to go in White's direction and for Steve the KSU opening gets him back to a guy he probably liked working for in a familiar system. Win win really.
(He’s a good coach, I’d guess we would have kept him but doesn’t appear as If we tried to)
Looking at Jordan Thomas current DL coach at SDSU. Jordan Thomas - Football Coach - SDSU AthleticsI respectfully disagree. If they wanted to let Stanard go, they could and would have done so.

There's a limited amount of guys with 3-3-5 experience and some might be hesitant to leave their job so late in the process. Will be interesting to see who they get and whether White looks back at his SDSU roots for the position.
If you give him a 2-year deal then you can get someone to come, especially if he’s a 3-3-5 guy connected to White.There's a limited amount of guys with 3-3-5 experience and some might be hesitant to leave their job so late in the process.

We'll get somebody to come, I'm not worried about that. Just might be a couple of coaches who would be hesitant. The timing is tough, but coaches everywhere seem to come and go all the time now.If you give him a 2-year deal then you can get someone to come, especially if he’s a 3-3-5 guy connected to White.
