Kerry Coombs to Cinci w/Luke Fickell
Looks like OSU's CB coach, Kerry Coombs, is headed to Cinci to be (presumably) Fickell's DC. Many on the board may not have heard of him, but he is regarded as one of the top recruiters in the country and has obviously done a good job with OSU's secondary during his tenure there. Definitely not a positive for OSU, although I'm sure Urban, like Harbaugh, is quite adept at hiring top notch replacements.
This is good news for UM for obvious reason, and bad news for a school like MSU. Could easily see Fickell/Coombs use their very strong Ohio ties to begin to poach the good players that are left in Ohio after OSU/UM have had their pick, which is a territory that D'Antonio and Co have done quite well in in the past.
