I have a friend on the offensive line. We need to keep Luke Meadows.

Agree

Since folks are guessing, assuming and or hoping, I'll add that perhaps Duggan and Meadows aren't going anywhere unless they have been given an offer they must refuse. I'm guessing that behind the scenes Hopson has a position coach realignment going on that involves Duggan for the Defense, Wozniak for the offense.

Bingo....

They are reporting that asst HC Jon Williams who was in charge of player personnel has been let go along with player development/recruiting director Dayne Brown. Added to that list is DL coach Justin Roberts. The AHC Williams had been the head coach of a MS JC but left that job to come here under Monken. Some of the dismissals doesn't surprise me as I have mentioned before that Monken only had 8 on the field assistant coaches and had turned the 9th one into an off the field.

Duggan is in the interview process now while Wozniak (OC) and Meadows (OL) will interview this afternoon

The Prairie View coach has declined an offer to come here so we can mark him off as an incoming coach

Any news on Meadows and Duggan?

Most fan bases probably have 1 poster like that. It is just that some post more than others. The guy on our board will say we are going bowling 1 day then a week later that we suck and shouldn't build our new stadium.

Southern Miss defensive coordinator David Duggan tells me that Jay Hopson has decided not to keep him on his staff.

.

I will give Hopson the benefit of the doubt for now but personally I am not liking some of the moves he's making. I realize I am not the HC or the one whose job is on the line but I felt pretty confident he would've kept a few more coaches just because of the consistency of the staff. What's been done has been done so I guess it's time to move on. From what I can recall Hopson has kept 1 person from each side of the ball and everyone else is new.

I was wrong about Duggins and Meadows...Time to move on and get ready for next year

I was really just joking around. I have every expectation that we'll put a winner on the field, but I don't really consider us a lock to win CUSA, or even necessarily the favorite. I have been impressed with our AD's resourcefulness. We'll need a lot of that going forward.

I think Duggan was offered a position, but turned it down.

Correct me if I'm wrong but here's what we have as our coaching staff:

Hopson - HC
Dawson - OC/QB
Wright - OL
Wozniak - WR?
Pecoraro - DC/LB
Pollard - CB
Nicholson - DL

Someone will need to replace Duggan with him being let go to which brings us to 8, we still need a RB coach (9) and 1 other coach (10) from what I can tell. I assume Hopson will not coach a position so of the 2 remaining (not counting RB as it's mentioned above) 1 would be a safeties coach while the other would be TE

Seems like a pretty solid group on paper at least.

Jeff Kelly, who dined in the 'burg with Hopson this week, would fit nicely into that RB or TE position.
