Glad no staff movement this offseason

If you are in Teach's super secret PM we have some juicy rumors over there. If not, that's lame and you should totally ask to be invited because we have the best source on this board. 

Mike Dawson will be your OLB/ST coach and I like that hire. Some will say it is the "safe hire" but I really want to see how well his ST do. He also taught K Davis to sack a QB so I would hope he can get other guys to do the same at a higher clip. Our OLBs need to be getting sacks not the DLine.

When he was with Boston College he had not one but two kickers set school records. I believe an improvement in ST will get us 2 extra wins this year. If we cannot kick the ball out of the endzone, we need to try something new like kicking it to the up-man like we tried later on in the year. I would love to see an onside kick in the middle of the game like we tried at OSU in 2018. Special teams creativity can really help your team out when things aren't going your way.

Wasn't Dawson the ST coach the first Frost year? Pickering started off slow, but hit his last 10 FGs. Punting was hit or miss until Armstrong started over Lightbourn (which then became average). Return teams have been crap shows since 2014. Outside of just consistency from the kicker, I think the priority should be to just get anything out of the return game.

Also I would like the University to do everything within reason to keep Held and Fisher.

Dewitt has been the ST coach since he came here. Dawson was just the Dline coach. 

I agree quit being conservative and return kicks. However, we need a dangerous return man and sadly Brody Belt isn't it. Also, the punt return game needs work. Either play for the return or go all out and block it.

Are we still thinking 3? Walters, beckon, Dewitt?   

Of those 3 are they all voluntary or pushed out?

Well Dewitt already has a job at UNC and I would guess Walter's probably took a HC gig and maybe Beckton is going with him
