Per a Rivals article (free, not premium)

Quarterbacks coach — Dave Rader, Ole Miss (Rader is Houston Nutt’s co-offensive coordinator and passing game coordinator.)

Running backs coach — Stan Drayton, Florida (This is actually a return engagement for Drayton in Gainesville.)

Offensive line coach — Shawn Elliott, South Carolina (Steve Spurrier wasn’t happy to lose Eric Wolford, but apparently he’s landed an adequate replacement.)

Secondary coach — Scott Lakatos, Georgia (Lakatos had connections to new UGA defensive coordinator Todd Grantham.)



Several other league hires also made Mr. Dienhart’s honorable mention list:

Linebackers coach — Warren Belin, Georgia

Offensive line coach — Chris Klenakis, Arkansas

Receivers coach — Tee Martin, Kentucky

Offensive line coach — Mike Summers, Kentucky

Radar surprises me maybe as a qb coach I dont know but his OC while at Bama was the suck.

It should be interesting. He'll have an empty canvas with the QB being new next year. Should be a good gauge in how he develops out the next few yrs.

I'm not sure why but this just seems strange to me. I know you don't have to be a receiver to coach receivers but I still see Tee playing QB and filling out his Mensa application.

I kid, I kid

Very excited to see what he can do with Arkansas' running game.

I'm kind of surprised Durkin didn't make it on the list for LB's. I think Florida got a steal with this hire...

I think Mississippi State got a steal in getting Chris Wilson from Oklahoma to coach our D-Line

Radar was hired to coach our QB's and hold a title of OC to make him feel better. HDN will call the plays.

Billy G is one of the best recruiting assistant coaches in the country. Cannot believe he didn't make this list.

shula developed the qb's while he was at bama. i don't know why they are giving rader credit for being a qb guru.

billy g is a massive upgrade for us from mcarthy.

^I think Florida actually upgraded with Azzani at WR coach over Billy G. Billy G was a good coach, but an AMAZING recruiter. Azzani is an AMAZING coach and a great recruiter.

Our HC was calling our plays while CDR was the OC; that might have been our problem.
