Lobos finally add to their coaching staff: CB coach Perry Eliano formally DC at Bowling Green & OLB coach Archie McDaniel formally LB coach at SMU.  McDaniel will be filling the 10th coaching position.

Lobos still need to hire an OC.

Man, signing day fast approaching.  Need to get that OC spot filled.

I would be so sure yet, we wanted Eliano as our new CB coach since December but didn't hire him until this week. Morgan also had other offers to think about.

Interesting. Which other offers?

Looks like Morgan is safe from UNM as the Lobos have offered the position to former associate head coach and co-offensive coordinator from Arizona Calvin Magee.

Rocky had mentioned that Morgan had three offers, which we were one but he didn't say any schools by name.

Saban turned around Kiffin, now he is embracing the challenge of turning around Locksley.

I don't know if he has turned around Kiffin.  Kiffin was always a brilliant OC, just not a great HC.  I'm sure he learned a lot from Saban about having a system in place, but I think the jury is still out on Kiffin as a HC.

Well, I guess you are right about that. I was sort of thinking about his image more so than his coaching abilities.

Gotcha.  I would mostly agree.  I find Kiffin funny with his Twitter antics but I know it rubs some people the wrong way.  He is winning as well, people put up with more while they are winning.
