Aubbies, what are some names you'd like to see Harsin add to his staff?

I honestly hope it isn't littered with Auburn guys. I wouldn't mind one or two especially if they are the known commodities, but I feel like this hire has the potential to move past our GOB network to some degree. Letting him hire a quality diverse staff would be another step in that direction.

I don't have any names on offense because I don't know Harsin's system. He is in that Petersen offensive tree and I don't really know those guys. I doubt he will find an SEC veteran assistant who runs that exactly, so I suspect he will be bringing in a west coast OC who has probably not coached in the SEC before.

But I would like to see him retain Caddy for the RB position and recruiting. Caddy is an AU alum, was a great college RB, and is new to coaching. I hate to see the guy's career get derailed when he was bringing in the talent (Tank and others) and seemed to have them performing well. But that's just my selfish wish.

On defense, I would like to see a splash hire like Muschamp. The problem with Champ is he has a huge ego and likes to pretend he is the HC when he is the DC (see the Iron Bowl in 2015). But the guy knows defense, is responsible for landing AU's big dog recruits that really helped Steele thrive. It doesn't have to be Muschamp, but I'd like someone like that.

If he kept Garner for DL crootin', I'd be fine with it. But people will form conspiracy theories that he was forced to keep him. I'd really like to see him keep T-Will who, like Caddy, has done well bringing in LB recruits and coaching them up.

Nothing wrong with completely cleaning house either.

I'm hoping he keeps the OL Coach Bedell and the TE Coach Riddle from Boise. Harsin seems to use a lot of Gus's run concepts which should make player fit pretty easy. For anyone else we'll have to see the OC and DC he brings in. Rumors are flying about how might or might not get retained and who would be on the short list for hires but I doubt anyone has a clue.
