The reason why I posted that is CBB mentioned in his news conference about meeting with a coach that just lost in the NFL conference games. This one makes the most since.

Yeah, people are saying that, but he was quoted as saying it was a dream to work in the NFL, he was also Co-DC at OU. I'd love it as he's a great recruiter, too, but I don't see it.

[hogfan14]

Did he specifically say it was for the DL? Technically Segrest isn't gone yet. Thought it could be a DB coach too.

[Hugo Bezdek]

Joe Whitt, Jr. is also a coach for the Packers that might be interested in a return to the college game. He has also been noted as a great recruiter from his time at Louisville.

[King Kong]

Jerry makes all of sense. He didn't get along with Mike Stoops.

Experience in th 3-4 that PR talked about

[a0ashle]

Safeties for GB were good, our CBs were atrocious, but they were also dropping like flies so it's hard to judge how much of that is on coaching (outside of Dom Capers desire to call WAAAAAY to exotic blitzes and coverages which only exacerbated their weakness.

As for the DL coach? Yes please! Agim could be our Mike Daniels, and while some of you might not recognize the name, the dude is a beast and pure disruption on the interior.

I like what I read about Montgomery. Sounds like he'd be a good one, and an outstanding recruiter it seems.

Couldn't help but notice that Ron Zook is the Special Team Coordinator for GB. Not sure what I'd think of him returning to the college game at Arkansas.

Our CBs were VASTLY improved this season. How do people not see this?

[hawgdavis]

Don't know about coaching but Zook can flat out recruit

[HamSammich]

No. I have every game recorded and have been watching them  again... our safeties are completely lost. The cornerbacks sometimes cover the wrong assignment.

[Scott7703]

Montgomery has been rumored before CBB mentioned anything today. We shall see if anything comes of it

[onebadrubi]

You don't know their assignments, but nice guess.  In the back 7 of a defense, CB's pass of guys all the time or sometimes don't pick up coverage on a guy until the OLB passes him off.

Since when...go on, please finish your thoughts...

[HOGINTENNESSEE]

Listening to the CBB quote it sounded like coach he wanted to talk to was no longer and option.

Uhhh you missed it he was talking about Green Bays CBs

[HamSammich]

I absolutely know their assignments. It's easy to spot when there is an error

[Beardog]

It's not always that simple. With each gameplan, players had different responsibilities. Sometimes a player will see someone's blown assignment and it looks like another's error. I'll say, it appears the safeties this year were asked to do more than they could handle. Hoping to simplify their roles and be more agressive.

[Peter Porker]

Since I used the wrong sense.

I'm not face familiar with the whole staff. Who is that beside Rhoads that showed zero emotion?

[Boss Hog in the Arkansas]

I honestly don't care who it is as long as they can develop talent. When you have the ability to bring in several 4*'s along the defensive line but are unable to develop them, you end up where we are right now.

[rljjr]

Uhhh you missed it he was talking about Green Bays CBs

Oppps!!! My bad! Sincere apologies.

[secfan30]

Recorded TV gives you no idea on a teams assignments and what was missed in the defensive backfield. Tv follows the ball, so the only time you see the defensive backfield is on a big play.

On a side note, I love my hogs and never miss a game, even will turn on a replay in the back ground, but the amount of time it takes to study game film, brother you need to get laid.

[onebadrubi]

BS, you are just making this up to try and put this staff down.

Didn't see Enos, and not sure who the bald headed guy is next to Michael Smith. Segrest? Herbs? Not sure.

[jackflash]

I think Ron Zook would be a good hire here

[Dwight_K_Shrute]

I'm not face familiar with the whole staff. Who is that beside Rhoads that showed zero emotion?

I believe that is Vernon Hargreaves who helped recruit the kid.  The video I saw it looked like VH was more relieved than anything like thank God we got that kid I may get to keep my job.

[Oklahawg]

According to FANONTHEHILL, the entire offensive staff is there along with Hargraves and Rhoads. No Segrest.

[lilRockNDubb]

I'm not face familiar with the whole staff. Who is that beside Rhoads that showed zero emotion?

In the longer version shown Hargreaves is smiling and shaking hands like the rest of them.

[Boss Hog in the Arkansas]

Bielema says the moment he knew Robb Smith was leaving, he let the recruits know. What if he knew something about Segrest and notified DL commits/guys that wanted to commit as well? It makes sense

[AugustaHog]

Could we steal Zook as STs coach/assoc. head coach and add Montgomery as the DL coach?  Would that be too much to ask?  That'd be a pretty stacked staff and great additions as recruiters.  Pipe dream, obviously.

yeah I don't get the lack of focus on recruiting ability.

If you're gonna have 'edges' in what you want in an assistant coach, how can recruiting not be an 'edge'.

[The_Bionic_Pig]

If Montgomery comes it's to be Co-Defensive Coordinator not D-Line Coach (imo)

[King Kong]

If Montgomery comes it's to be Co-Defensive Coordinator not D-Line Coach (imo)

Yeah he would have to atleast get Co-DC but would probably still work with DL

[ricepig]

If Montgomery comes it's to be Co-Defensive Coordinator not D-Line Coach (imo)

That's why I don't think it's him.

[a0ashle]

Uhhh you missed it he was talking about Green Bays CBs

Confirmed I think I mixed my pronouns a little being both a Packer fan and Razorback fan.

Razorback CBs were much better this year.

For GB at one point opposing QBs had a QB rating of 131 when targeting our corners.

[Scott7703]

If Montgomery comes it's to be Co-Defensive Coordinator not D-Line Coach (imo)

I don't see any scenario where this happens.


And I do think Montgonery is one of the the people in the running.

[a0ashle]

What about the steelers staff? They run the 3-4 too and lost the AFCCG.

[Dwight_K_Shrute]

So Ms State hired Ron English today as their safeties coach.  I thought standing rule was if hiring from the outside you had to wait at minimum two weeks after NSD.

[aar0n]

We've snuck some guys in for interviews. Being on the road is a good time to do things under the radar. One of the guys I wanted to interview was just eliminated from the NFL playoffs and another is still involved. I don't want to speculate on when it's going to happen.

- CBB during his NSD presser

Sounds like Belichick is coming to be our D-line coach, but I'm sure we'll have to give him an associate HC title or something too.

But for real, these are the only coaches in the SB with college ties that would even come close to leaving for AR, and neither are d-line coaches:

Chad Walker - LBs/Defensive assistant with the Falcons

http://www.atlantafalcons.com/team/coaches/Chad-Walker/aa00b721-1537-4f60-af5a-0c8d04df9ecc?qwr=fullsite_temporary

Looks like he has strong Louisiana ties, started coaching under Saban at LSU, and has only been around the south.

Doug Mallory - D-backs/defensive assistant with the Falcons

http://www.atlantafalcons.com/team/coaches/Doug-Mallory/f76ae18c-6838-49ba-a011-db5da93efd3e?qwr=fullsite_temporary

This dude has 25 years of college coaching experience and was at LSU for 4 years.

Could we end up with another coach making his way here from ATL?

[HOGINTENNESSEE]

That's why I don't think it's him.

I think it's him CBB wanted to talk to.

However, I agree I doubt he will come

[jackflash]

what do you think about moving  Hargraves to DB and hiring a DL and LB coach

[clutch]

I absolutely know their assignments. It's easy to spot when there is an error

It's extremely hard, if not impossible sometimes, to spot what the correct coverages  or errors that occurred by the DB's by watching regular TV footage. Unless you have access to cameras showing all 22 players, I doubt you "absolutely know" what their assignments were.

[RedyorNot]

Says it won't be either Montgomery or Partridge according to source-

Well, hopefully their source is the same one that had Barry Odom as DC 3 years ago.

Doesn't cross out Partridge as 2nd LB/ special teams...
Food for thought.
