FBS Coaching Carousel
Posted: Thu Nov 30, 2017 9:17 am
I know we're more into FCS, but I figured there might be a few things going on in the FBS world that have some connection to Western or are area or whatever. Here's a few from footballscoop.com:
Florida: Todd Grantham, who coordinated the defense at Mississippi State last season, has officially been named defensive coordinator on Dan Mullen’s staff with the Gators.
(Todd Grantham is the brother of WIU's DC Tony Grantham)
Also, Dave Doeren, current HC at NC State, has been offered the HC position at Tennessee. NC State has countered with a new offer: http://footballscoop.com/news/reports-d ... -position/
Doeren played at Drake, coached LB and then was DC at Drake...after a few other positions, he became the HC at Northern Illinois (taking over after Jerry Kill left for MN) and led the Huskies to a 23-4 record and two bowl games over two years before being hired at NC State. His WR coach in 2012 at NIU and in 2013 and 2014 at NC State was WIU Alumni (and current TN Titans WR coach) Frisman Jackson.
