bigbird 60,939 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Impressive! The fact that we can pull in an "analyst" with that type of experience shows that we have the right man in charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THAT'S impressive, only 1 month in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ball duty in practice. The guys that catch the ball for the QBs. The guy that snaps it to the QBs. Man what a gravy job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaker 2,457 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 100% shocked I really am. Now can we replace Rocker if needed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reeder hasn’t even been fired for cause or lost at a game of head coach musical chairs. No black marks on the resume. No outstanding warrants. No rehab required. Can’t be a “splash hire” without those qualifications, right? I’m still thinking/hoping there’s a moneyball level of sophistication shaping up here that creates an asymmetric advantage. Wish i could fast forward 24 months and have my hopes/biases confirmed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sizzle 3,948 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 How’d he end up as an analyst? It looks like he was doing well at his previous stops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SumterAubie 3,086 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 So was he fired from the OC position at Utah State? Or does an analyst gig pay so much it induces an OC at another school to take an off field analyst position? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like he was doing well at his previous stops. Tried to find this out as well. He made 275,000 at North Texas. Assume more at Utah State. We don't pay that much for an Analyst. I can't imagine he took a pay cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUcivE09 582 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Now we just need another 2 dozen of these and we should be able to compete with that other team and reach the $2.1MM recruiting mark! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toddc 13,197 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Maybe it’s a chance to be at an SEC program and use as a stepping stone. That’s what happens all the time at uat and I hope AU can get to that place with coaching/analyst hires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A damn ex-NFL coach is their OL coach. I could see an OC at Utah State maybe become a position coach. But going from OC to off the field assistant is a downgrade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W.E.D 11,071 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Looks like he wasn't retained by the new staff at Utah State. Black Anderson was hired and he's an offensive guy, so not surprising he isn't going to keep the OC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerCatcher 182 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Between Harsin, Bobo and Reeder we should be able to get Bo to use his hips on his throws. I once roomed with Ron Veal on a mission trip to the DR, maybe I can get him involved as well.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
