2022/23 Coaching Staff Changes

Biggest appeal for me is, contrary to Manning, this guy is already an experienced OC, rather than trying to learn it on the job line Manning. One of our biggest offensive problems wasn’t just plays or execution, but getting plays called in time, in game adjustments, and red zone play calling. Those things I’d assume improve with experience and tenure
Agree. As long as everything doesn't have to go thru Campbell's headset for approval.

Exactly. Like I mentioned earlier, I think this is as good as we’d realistically hope for. A guy Campbell personally knows and has coached with + experienced + record of QB success and high powered offense, even if it’s at a lower level
How exciting. Lower level.

Glad to see the address, he’s got experience as an OC on the best offense in the MAC that’s good. A lot of guys get moved up from smaller conferences, glad to see he has experience. Will be interesting to see if manning stays in some capacity and who will be new S&C coach. Also, Campbell has to let new OC just do his job if rumors are true about the micro managing. Glad to see/hear Coach is doing what’s necessary for his program to keep getting better.

When a S&C coach gets fired it’s very rarely tied directly to win/ losses or perceived “weakness” on the field, it’s philosophical differences with the head coach.

Yah
Yah this really blows. Dave doesn't coach speak or beat around the bush. Very direct. Apparently said the truth too many times for Annointed Golden Boy to tolerate.
Or our conditioning was worse than the last guy. We we getting worked hard on both sides by being gassed way too early. False starts and pad positioning both go up when Oline gets tired and we had A LOT of that this year.

I wonder how much of the alleged micro managing was because Manning had no experience and was learning on the job; I doubt Campbell was making Heacock run everything through him
 
The biggest appeal of this guy, is that he's not Manning. We know Manning didn't work, and as fans we definitely don't know who the quality coordinators are.

Campbell was never going to go after some hot name that had zero ties.
Nor could we afford a “hot name”.
 
We need to elevate our Brand, elevate our Cash Otherwise the best we can expecct is Mac level staff. Heacock is a stud, CMC I think is there or can get there, but were not in play right now for the proven power 5 coaches, we need to develop them just like our players.
 
Absolutely stunned by the Andrews news... Strength seemed like the last place to look..
No sure I would agree.

I thought our guys looked slow this year, just not enough burst to keep up with other Big12 teams. You can question if we are recruiting enough speed, but I just thought we looked sluggish.

From an o-line standpoint, again not sure I saw of lower body quickness and foot speed for our guys to be a competent Big12 o-line.

But who knows, it could just as easily be a personality conflict. May never know.
