Hoke has reached out to UCLA OC Noel Mazzone
I know this could go in the Borges is out thread, but I figured itd get lost in the pile of comments. According to Steve Lorenz at 247, Coach Hoke has reached out to Noel Mazzone who is currently UCLA's OC. I think this would be a great hire.

I tried editing my post, but what I was going to change is that I wish it was a young guy with some promise.
Its obvious Michigan is going after an OC who can be the QB coach as well and thats what Mazzone is.

Oh wait, you said "Mazzone"...damnit.

Those that have returned to college football have for the most part done very well. If Hoke wants to keep the pro style offense, hiring a NFL assistant coach hire would be smart.

This would be a great hire, IMO. I don't know all the ins and outs of the guy's offense, but he has seemed to do a great job at UCLA. I also don't know how much direct involvement he has with Hundley's coaching, but that kid has turned into a pretty darn good QB. I think he might be able to help Devin do the same.

I like Mazzone. Anyone know more details about him?
