They haven’t officially announced most of the positions, but I believe the OP to be accurate.
Just the OL spot to fill, which is always an important hire

And Lake the new coach at Washington did not keep Hamdan on the staff??????
How can you let a guy go that put up almost 6000 yards on Offense?
But I am happy he did, and this is another main reason I don't like rookie coaches like Lake.
From the St Louis Post Dispatch,
"Under Hamdan's watch, Washington's 2018 offense racked up 3,337 passing yards, fourth-most in team history. UW's 5,805 yards were the program's third-most. His offense struggled in stretches during the Huskies' 8-5 season and when UW coach Chris Petersen stepped down after the regular season, new coach Jimmy Lake did not retain the second-year coordinator."

It's being reported that Jason Garrett will be joining the staff as an offensive analyst.

Either this OL hire is a well kept secret. Or Drink is still searching... Tomorrow's the 6th.
Curious if we hear something

Auburn OL coach steps down to pursue other opportunities. Coached with Drink at Arkansas State. Might be something, might be nothing.

JB Grimes is an interesting name, Malzahn is a gimmick offense king, and Auburn ran that nutty offense with veer like blocking on the line, that had to be a Grimes invention.

Auburn’s Oline was almost as bad as ours this year with probably better talent. No thanks.

How does JB Grimes rank as a recruiter?
And while he may not be ideal, who else is available who schools the OL in Drink's style?
It feels like Drink's down to picking over scraps or he'd have been named by now, yes?

Auburn football looking for new offensive line coach
AUBURN, Alabama—For the third time in the last four seasons the Auburn Tigers will have a new offensive line coach when Gus Malzahn’s team lines up against Alcorn State on Sept. 5 with veteran J.B. Grimes deciding to step away from the program following the 2019 season to pursue other opportunities, sources tell Inside The Auburn Tigers.
“J.B. has decided to move on and pursue other opportunities," Malzahn confirmed. "I appreciate everything he’s done for Auburn. J.B. and his wife Jennifer will always be a part of the Auburn family.”
Malzahn will now look for a replacement while Auburn also has to replace senior starters Prince Tega Wanogho Jr., Marquel Harrell, Mike Horton and Jack Driscoll on the offensive line heading into next year along with seniors Kaleb Kim and Bailey Sharp. With only Nick Brahms returning with starting experience, Auburn's offensive line is going to have a very different look next season.
A coaching veteran of more than 30 years, Grimes spent the last two seasons at Auburn after coaching with the Tigers from 2013-15. Grimes coached in 2016 at UConn before going to the University of Cincinnati for the 2017 season.
First coming to Auburn for the 2013 season, Grimes helped the Tigers lead the nation in rushing yards at 328.3 yards per game behind the play of first round tackle Greg Robinson and Rimington Award finalist Reese Dismukes. Paving the way for Tre Mason to earn a spot in the Heisman Trophy final group, the offensive line also allowed just 1.29 sacks per game that season.
The 2014 offensive line helped the Tigers lead the SEC in third-down conversion percentage (.525) and team passing efficiency (156.79) while the Tigers were second in team rushing (255.5), total offense (485.0) and yards per completion (14.35). Cameron Artis-Payne led the SEC in rushing at 123.7 yards per game and joined Tre Mason, Bo Jackson, Rudi Johnson and Cam Newton as the only rushers in Auburn history to post a 1,400-yard season.
Nick Marshall posted a school quarterback record eight career 100-yard rushing games and finished second in Auburn career QB rushing at 1,863 yards. Marshall was the fifth Auburn quarterback to throw 20 touchdown passes in a season, joining Cam Newton (30/2010), Chris Todd (22/2009), Jason Campbell (20/2004) and Pat Sullivan (20/1971).
Despite some struggles on offense this past season, Auburn’s offensive line finished the year graded 28th nationally by ProFootballFocus for its play with guard Harrell the top player, according to the PFF ratings. Auburn allowed just 48 total pressures this season, the third-fewest among all teams in the country.
The issue came in the running game where the Tigers averaged 199.8 yards per game this season, but only 130.2 yards against ranked teams. The Tigers finished the season on New Year's Day with just 56 yards in a loss to Minnesota in the Outback Bowl.

Auburn ran a lot of gap blocking plays and I don't think any of that fits Drinks offense. It would be an odd hire for him to come to Missouri just to coach zone blocking.

Thanks for dropping the knowledge.
Without knowing the Xs and Os I've been trying to connect dots and it looked like a fit.
