Frost Assistants

Have it from a pretty good source that the following assistants are hired:

Erik Chinander DC
Jovan Dewitt Associate HC/LB/Special Teams
Greg Austin OL
Ryan Held RB
Mario Verduzco QB
Travis Fisher DB
Mike Dawson DL
Matt Davison Associate AD for Football

It sounds like Barrett Rudd and Zach Duvall will be added too but not official yet.

Not sure I'm sold on Chin.

Still hoping Parella and DW are kept. Looking unlikely.

I'd really like to see FCU's WR/OC come along.
 
I am thinking Walters may be in running to replace Frost. DC has had some success in his career. Not sure of circumstances that lead to so many points against them late in the season. It wasn’t that way earlier in the season I believe.
 
Chin will be fine. Defense carried them last year, and they replaced a lot this year. They played the #8 and #2 scoring offenses in the country the last two weeks, these things happen. Plus all the distractions....
 
Not concerned really with OC. Frost is heavily involved with play calling and is more than capable with handling it 100%. He’s experienced with how TO did things along with Solich. No doubt he’s mimicked that setup as a HC.

If Walters comes, great.
 
I know I'm making excuses for them. I'm praying our defense becomes everything SF, Chinander, the players, and fans want them to be!
I'm just messing with you, Sgt Red! I'm confident the Defense will be better here at NU, because I'm sure Coach Frost knows that Defense like that isn't compatible with the Blackshirt tradition! :orange:

Yah, I'm definatly on board with whatever coach frost thinks is the right decision on what coaches to hire. Will defiantly hope for the best for some of our current coaches in their future endeavors. They were a good bunch, but it just didn't equate to wins.
 
If it is true that Matty is Associate AD, think about how Moos plans ahead. We know at his age he probably will only be around 5-8 years. Long enough to make a run at a NC. Then he has someone inline to succeed him and keep the tradition rolling.

As much as I am excited to have Scott back, I am just as excited at who we have in the AD office.

Some of these guys are going to get at least a 300% pay raise coming to NU.

Fisher and Held were making $140k a year at UCF
Austin: $275k
Dewitt $230k
Verduzco $230k
Chinander: $425
Dawson: $130k
