I have no idea if this is the case, but it's possible that Udy is going to be the guy at OC and that it hasn't been announced yet.
Udy has definitely stuck around long enough in my mind to earn that title. Wasn’t he brought in as an OC under Choate?

Yeah he was. And now he's had plenty of time to learn how Vigen wants the offense to operate.

I had heard he was heading to a mountain west school. It was pretty vague what was told to me but take that for what it’s worth.

Why would you sign with a team if you have no idea who the OC and QB coach is going to be?
Just because we don’t know doesn’t mean that they don’t know.

Personally I’d just move Jordan Walsh over to OL coach.

If, in the end, we have retained Vigen, Daly, Owens, and Herrin, I'm happy!

I wouldn't be surprised if they move Jordan Walsh to the offensive line. That is his background, both as a player and a coach prior to MSU.

I was just about to post about being an insufferable loser, but I will honor your request and hold off.

Did Howe leave? I think it would help MSU a lot if he (and Baptiste) is back to work with this defensive line. Has a chance to be a special unit.

I’ve heard things but I am treating the whole situation as fluid. I totally agree it would be great to have those guys back, but the four I listed above as guys that I consider particularly vital.

I agree. I think the OC and OL guys left in part because of Mellott and Wehr (and Sain?) being done. Any final word on Sain?

I think they left because they got higher paying jobs.

That’s another part and probably the biggest part. Also, coaches (per Choate) should keep moving around to enhance their résumé’s. They might also like Temple and the coaching staff and the area.

One coaching name to watch is Mike Bath. He worked under Vigen at Wyoming and is currently the OC/QB Coach at Indiana State.

So he works in an area where they have a need, he has the connection to Vigen, and he’s at a job where you can imagine him leaving for MSU.

This is a little mind boggling and perplexing to me. How do the Cats lose 14 to the portal and da fluffy cows 0 ? :shrug:
Is it just the quality of the players? they have a few great ones but managed to keep them and the Cats had many more and somehow managed to lose the game as well? Ugh.

Beating a dead horse here but....money, money, and more money. Their collective is possibly 5x more than ours at the moment.
