Possible Coach #9:

I heard tonight Florida State quality control coach Troy Douglas could be in the mix for the final open position on the South Carolina staff. He's a career secondary coach (and a very good one), so that would switch up the staff structure a bit. I know he is highly interested and would take the position if offered.
Gamecocks head coach Will Muschamp is going to take his time and get the right fit. I don't know if at the end of the day it will be Douglas or not, but I was told tonight by two different sources to keep an eye on it.

Gideon was a standout safety at Texas starting all 52 college games, which is the second-most in school history, during his time from 2008-2011. He had 276 tackles and 10 interceptions during his four-year career. He spent two seasons with the Denver Broncos on their practice squad before deciding to get into coaching.
Gideon, who played for Muschamp at Texas for three seasons, joined his staff at Florida in 2014 and then followed him to Auburn in 2015 to work with the secondary.
