Floss, have you seen anything on potential position coaches? Here's those that I've seen being mentioned by the different sites. Anyone I've missed?

OC: Mike Yurcich
QB: Mike Yurcich
RB: Stan Drayton
WR: Emmett Jones (Kansas, WR), Andre Coleman (interim WR)
TE: None (IT (I think it was) reported that Warehime would interview, but most likely wouldn't be retained)
OL: Herb Hand

DC: Chris Ash
DL: Oscar Giles, Elijah Robinson (TAMU DL. Might be going to the NFL with Rhule), Frank Okam (Baylor DL)
LB: Robb Smith (former Minnesota DC/LB. Worked with Ash at Arkansas)
CB: Jason Washington (247 mentioned he would interview this week)
S: Ash himself (if he goes with 1 LB, 2 DL and 2 DB coaches)

That looks good, although add Carrier from Houston as a WR coach candidate.

I meant to post about Robinson yesterday, which would be a nice addition to help Giles.

I knew I forgot someone. I was close to put on Ra'Shaad Samples because I felt like I left someone out at WR.

I agree on Robinson. But I would be happy with either of Okam or Robinson alongside Giles.

Chris Marve would be a guy I would like to see interview for the LB job.

I’d prefer Okam over Robinson just cause I’d rather not be pulling coaches from A&M. Also Okam seemed to get his guys playing really well up front and it’s also great to have an alum on staff that was here when we were elite.

“I grew up watching Texas a lot. Them moving to a four-man front helps. I was heavy on them early last year, but they started fading because of the fit,” Jackson said before the Future 50 Camp in Orlando. “I prefer the four-man front so I can stay on the edge and rush the passer.”

Jackson is a 6-6, 240-pound five-star prospect with 24 offers. He suffered a season ending knee injury as a sop re. It was a tough, frustrating journey back to the field, but it ended with a Class 4A Division II state championship. It was his second in three years as a varsity player.


“It was great to bounce back from the knee injury. I missed football and I wanted to go win a le,” he said. “I felt 100% about four months after the surgery, but the doctors wanted me to wait until eight months out to go full-go and it worked out great.”


Jackson said he has trimmed his list to about 10 schools and hopes to commit by early in his senior season. The talented pass rusher listed Texas, Texas A&M, LSU and Alabama as schools that have separated from the pack. A&M holds a family advantage with his dad having played college basketball for the Aggies. Relationships and scheme should determine his eventual destination.

“I’m talking to LSU and Texas A&M the most right now. They’re contacting me three times a week and really showing me how I’d fit in their scheme,” Jackson said. “I want the place with the best plan for me, on and off the field.”

TA:

Another junior defensive lineman back on the radar is Tunmise Adeleye. The five-star from Katy Tompkins also didn’t like Texas’ odd-man front and was leaning toward programs with a four-man front. The hiring of Ash and move to a four-man front has Adeleye interested; his teammate and quarterback, Jalen Milroe, is a UT commit for 2021.


“I’ll be back at Texas in January,” Adeleye declared. “I want to see what the new defensive vision is about.”


Adeleye is a 6-3, 260-pound defender with the potential to grow into a three-technique defensive tackle. He and Jackson will be the top-ranked defensive linemen in the state for the 2021 class and the Longhorns hope to land one, if not both, five-star talents.
