Noooooooo!!!!

The new guy better have extensive knowledge of past slow Michigan RBs to which the fast new RBs can be compared.
January 13th, 2011 at 6:16 PM |
Right...
Right...
But... that guy was also the slash Recruiting Coordinator. So, maybe there is a chance he would just have that role and not be the slash RB Coach
Can't help but feel for the Jacksons.
But, maybe Wheatley is on his way to town...

It was announced when RR was fired that the entire staff was let go save for Barwis who is also gone.
That's a contractual thing. Technically, you can't fire just the head coach - you have to fire the entire staff. Barwis is (was?) under a separate contract, so he was not let go in that action. Jackson may be rehired.

Fred Jackson is a terrific recruiter
Fred Jackson is a terrific recruiter
as most guys in the Rivals/Scout/Lemming universe will tell you, particularly in Texas, where he brought in Kellen Jones this year. I hope we keep him for that reason alone.

That's one thing. They also
That's one thing. They also
That's one thing. They also run a lot of drills working on proper running form, footwork, ball security, blocking and receiving. They also serve as an important liaison between the player and head coach. The HC doesn't get to spend that much time with each player. The position coaches serve as his eyes and ears much of the time. When I was at U-M, I knew one of the running backs a little. He described Jackson as his "father figure" and Carr as a "grandfather figure."

Hoke's RB coach was a QB coach before his time at SDSU. Maybe Jackson will still be retained as the RB coach and Hoke's guy will be the QBs coach.

He'll probably still be around
He'll probably still be around
My best guess for how things pan out:
- HC/DL? - Hoke
- OC - Borges (from SDSU)
- DC- ???, Depends on what Hoke does, he could either do DL or DC
- QB- ???, No idea, Loeffler maybe?
- WR- Jeff Hecklinski (SDSU) moves back since this would make more sense for a former QB
- RB - Fred Jackson is kept
- OL- Darrell Funk (from SDSU)
- LB- Mark Smith
- DB - Jon Hoke?
I'm assuming that they keep Fred Jackson because I'm guessing Hecklinski only coached the RBs because SDSU had their own Fred Jackson in WR Coach LeCharls McDaniel. http://goaztecs.cstv.com/sports/m-footbl/bio-McDaniel-LeCharls.html

No way he is gone. He might not be RBs coach, but no way he is gone. If he isn't a coach, it's probably because he didn't want to be but I am sure he will be working with the football program/AD in some way or another. Hart, Perry, Terrell, Thomas...the list goes on with what that guy has done..

It was announced when RR was fired that the entire staff was let go save for Barwis who is also gone. Considering that it was announced today that Hoke's RB coach was coming with him, Jackson appears to be out.
