Wonder how valid it is... or if he jumped the gun on a rumor.

Didnt Kevin Wilson call the plays?

If we got johns it's a big get. Indiana ran a pretty nice offense for the last couple of years.

After leading Davenport (NAIA) through inaugural season (6-5) head coach Lou Esposito resigned today: per twitter

WoodTV Grand Rapids was reporting on his move to WMU tonight...

Here's information on Johns:

LOL. I think Lou needs to get some skinny...

Yes they have. I hope that lady isn't senile and the tweet is true!

More Kevin Johns smoke...

Not sure this was mentioned but Lester is retaining Dave Dugan, linebackers coach. That was a big reason Hayward re-committed.

That's good! I hope Lester retains some more coaches from the previous staff. That will provide some cohesiveness and continuity with the players.

It is important to maintain some familiarity and to juxtapose current and new staff provides that.

Go Broncos.

Also...thanks for posting.

Per Esposito-Davenport is a non-traditional university, most students are non-resident and commuter. But it has 26 VARSITY SPORTS, interesting. Almost like an oversized Community College.

Per the comment on CO-DC, Pinkham may be staying on as a Elder Sage. He's in his 60's (like me!) with lots of smarts but definitely doesn't have the energy he used to have. With that in mind, Espo may be the understudy brought in to learn the Defensive Scheme with the idea that Pinkham retires in 2-3 years. I can dig it-and relate to it!

Ahhhh, good. This is sounding better!

I would really like to see Moreland come back to WMU... coach receivers and/or Tight ends!

I was not a huge fan of Lou when he was a our DC, but, to be fair, Cubit focused 99% of his time on the offense and our recruiting classes weren't that great to begin with. There are much better players on the team now than what he had to work with, and if Pinkham is staying on as the primary DC, then I feel a lot better about the hire.
