Anyone know off hand the offensive linemen Luke put in the NFL. I know Tunsil. No UGA guys, please, that was all Pitboss. Trying to, but I can't buy the hype yet, he retired for goodness sake.

Without knowing NFL guys, I believe he will be the "shiny penny" distraction of the Freeze hire.

Not sure about his guys getting to the NFL, but he's a Cutcliffe desciple and is by all accounts a very good OL coach. He followed Cutcliffe to Tennessee and Duke as well as OM. We could do way worse.

That's good. I like it. Thanks. I'll give a pass on the retirement/motivation issue because "they"
say he loves working with Freeze.

Now let's come up big on the defensive coordinator.

Is that the word that Luke will be the OC? Because he does have a little OC experience. Although, I'm not sure if he ever called plays since Cutcliffe (and I believe Freeze does as well) calls his own plays.

If we hire Freeze but don’t also get Luke I’m gonna be livid.

Yeah, an elite staff both on the field and the recruiting trail will make a Freeze hire a lot easier to swallow.

I'm apprehensive that truly "elite" position coaches will want to hitch their wagon to his though. We will see I guess.

No sorry not thinking in terms of OC. Just that it would seem likely that he would be offered OL coach. I believe Kent Austin (Ole Miss 80s QB and I believe CFL superstar) has always been at least his QB coach and maybe OC.
