OTF Premium Staff Changes Still to Come | Friday AM

[CJ Vogel]

The nuclear bomb dropped yesterday in regards to the swap of Pete Kwiatkowski for Will Muschamp will continue to have trickle down effect.

Two positions I am monitoring on the defensive side of the ball are linebackers and defensive backs.

Will Muschamp stepped foot on campus for the first time Friday morning and I was told he immediately took up with the Texas linebacking unit. What does that mean for Johnny Nansen? At the moment, I am unsure. However, if Muschamp is as hands on as this would indicate with the position, it could mean additional movement for the Longhorn LB coach.

Additionally, what does Muschamp do in the back end? I mentioned Travaris Robinson as someone to watch to come in and fill the safeties coach void. The two have been tied to the hip at previous stops and it makes sense given their history together. 

Could Blake Gideon be in the picture? I am unsure at the moment.

Meetings with the Texas staff and Muschamp will happen over the next week. I was told this DC move was a surprise to many defensive staffers, just as it was to the general public and myself.

I still believe Texas will be in the market for a wide receivers coach as well. Chris Jackson's contract is up at the end of the season and based off of sourcing behind the scenes, I expect him to move on from Texas.

Is there any smoke to Gideon coming back to replace Akina?

Doubtful. Watch for T Robinson from Georgia because of his history with Muschamp.

[Rocky P]

@CJ Vogel who do you want to see as replacements for Jackson if he does leave?

Gideon is DC is Georgia Tech. He is not coming back here to take a step down.

If he continues to do well at Georgia Tech for a few years he just might come back to be DC at Texas, but he's not coming back as a safeties coach unless things go poorly at GT.

If you can answer @CJ Vogel what’s your feel on Flood coming back?

Press conference made it sound like it for sure.  And same with Nansen.

Possibility is there I think if they bring him back as a co-DC (DC in waiting) and takes the reins from Coach BOOM in a few years. 😂🤘🤣

I think Nansen is gone with WM taking over the LB position and Jackson is gone cause we would've renewed his conract already if he was coming back.
Would love to have Gideon come back for the safety position and I think he would regardless of the title he has at GT right now
No idea who we're gonna get at WR but I think Sark already has his mind made up, based on how decisive these recent hires were.

@CJ Vogel is Clarke a full time position coach? (I.e. can be on the road for recruiting). What is his outlook? 
 

It seems like Clarke and Baker are the young stars on the staff

Muschamp has coached the safety position before and he played safety in college. Nansen will remain LB coach.

I think nansen should've been the first to go, much before PK. (My opinion)
If we retain him I think it would be a mistake.

Just a lot of talk about he was just not good enough in recruiting and that the guys we got were because of NIL and/or because they just wanted to go to Texas.
His process in recruiting was just not to the level it needs to be from a position coach at Texas.

Having said that I definitely think he's the last coach on the defense that I would be sure remains, regardless of how I feel about his peformance.
