Which Assistant Coaches Stay

[Eagle-96]

If Dan McCraney is indeed the new coach then I would assume that Mike Nelson has the best chance at being retained due to his past with McCarney. I am torn about this as I wish I knew how many of the D-line personal decisions were Nelsons and how many were Dodge telling him who would play where. By all accounts, Nelson was quite an accomplished D-line coach prior to his stint here. Who else has a shot at staying? Does Deloach stay on?

should only keep Gandy and Canales, if he will stay.

none

DeLoach won't be retained, no matter who gets the job, in my opinion.

[MeanGreenDan]

Want Canales and no one else.

But if I were him, I would not stay. So I'll say none.

[eulessismore]

One I most want to stay, with the least likelihood he will stay: Canales

One I least want to stay, with the greatest likelihood he will stay: Nelson

Agree

[UNT Mean Green]

Canales as Offensive Coordinator/Associate Head Coach---recruiting ties in Florida, Georgia, California, and Arizona

Hines as WR Coach (valuable asset to Vanales with offense as he was OC at La Tech for years)---recruiting ties in Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas, and Tennessee

Gandy as RB Coach---recruiting ties in Mississippi, and Louisiana

Point of the story: these are well qualified coaches who have recruiting ties in the most fertile areas in the country. One could argue that most of the key components on recent teams have been from Mississippi and Louisiana.

I hope the incoming coach has a clean slate. If he wants to hire someone from the current staff I can get behind that but I don't want RV to pull a Jerrah Jones.

Granted I want Chico to stay, but I gagree with this.
