Who is being interviewed for OL coach?
Posted on 1/11/19 at 9:45 am to Sebastian
Potential OL coach candidates:
Ryan Silverfield, Memphis: Rising star as the Tigers' assistant head coach/run game coordinator/offensive line coach. UM finished fourth nationally in rushing offense in 2018 at 280 yards per game. Extensive NFL experience, having worked for both the Detroit Lions and Minnesota Vikings. For the 2017 cycle, Silverfield was ranked as the fourth-best recruiter in the American Athletic Conference by 247Sports.
Jody Wright, UAB: 2018 is his first season as assistant head coach/offensive line for the Blazers. Wright's previous experience at UA spans from graduate assistant (2010) to offensive analyst (2011-2012) to director of player personnel (2015-2017). Additional SEC experience in the form of support staffer under both Sylvester Croom (2005-2008) and Dan Mullen (2009) at Mississippi State.
Will Friend, Tennessee: Recently completed first season at UT, where he serves under close friend and former UA teammate Jeremy Pruitt. Has coached OLs for four different FBS programs: UAB (2007-2010), Georgia (2011-2014), Colorado State (2015-2017) and Tennessee (2018). Four-year starter and two-time All-SEC selection at offensive guard for UA from 1993-1996.
Sam Pittman, Georgia: If he were to make a move it would have likely been to Tennessee with Jim Chaney, who recently left UGA to take over as the Vols' offensive boss. Still, a call likely already has been or will be made to gauge Pittman's interest. Long regarded as one of the best OL coaches in the game, Pittman has SEC stops at UT, Arkansas and UGA on his resume.
Rob Sale, Louisiana-Lafayette: Similar to Wright in that Sale, who just finished up his first season as the Ragin Cajuns' offensive line coach and offensive coordinator under former UA assistant Billy Napier, has extensive ties to Nick Saban and Alabama. Sale played for Saban at LSU before serving in a support staff role under his old coach at UA from 2007-2011. Sale spent a lot of time observing former UA OL coach Joe Pendry during his time at the Capstone. Also spent a season as Georgia's offensive line coach in 2015.

Silverfield actually looks pretty interesting purely on pedigree, if he is a technician and an above average at least recruiter all the better.

Where does your link say that?
Posted on 1/11/19 at 10:51 am to phaz
It doesn't come close to saying that.

Football scoop is reporting it fwiw. I hope that’s not true.

Others reporting it as well

What is Miami paying Enos? This is another Aranda Orgeron situation.

Alright. This shite is now ridiculous. I don’t for one second believe we had this many staff members who were “forced” out. If they were, then that’s on Saban for making bad hires last year.

Can't believe nobody is interested in Tosh

What the absolute freak is happening right now, literally the coaches we like and need to stay are leaving and the defense which needs to be retooled hasn't been touched yet.
Posted on 1/11/19 at 10:57 am to FairhopeTider
This is just crazy
Posted on 1/11/19 at 10:57 am to alabamabuckeye
Can’t believe nobody is interested in any assistant on Clemson’s staff.....
Posted on 1/11/19 at 10:57 am to FairhopeTider
I can't believe Saban didn't want Enos as his OC
