A good man, and a better coach than what last year showed. I'm a little so-so on his evals and ability to recruit the types of players we need to land at the linebacker position. Our LBs played like absolute **** last year, and we saw a serious regression from an All-Conference level LB in Kiko.

And for those reasons, he had to go.

He'll probably do well at Mizzou. They get some good linebackers out there in the Ozarks and Texarkana.

Are you implying that Guidry dictates rotation?
Not implying it. Idk what the issue is.

Either that, they were overrated, bad evaluation, or not being developed/coached up to play.

The main guys that played were coached by other people before Guidry/Nicholson (Kiko, Wes, Alderman). Popo looked rough most of the time when he played. Bobby Pruitt played very little. That’s about it.

Not mad at it. Hetherman can coach linebackers and if we get a guy like Monroe he can take the secondary which leaves room for a full time special teams coach.
That's a waste. I'm not convinced that our special teams issues are a symptom of the fact that Kalter isn't an on-field position coach.

It's more an indictment on sh*tty coaching then it is the actual fact that he's not an on-field coach.

If you want to hire a different full time special teams coach, go do it. But he doesn't have to be an on-field coach.
